Multiple views generated by reloading the page

I'm not sure if this is a glitch or just a weird change from old scratch, but each time you view a page it generates a new view. It used to be that this only happened when a new viewer viewed the page. This means that while my project might say it has 100 views, most of them could be from myself!

I know this doesn't really matter seeing as top viewed has been removed from the site, but I hope it will be changed seeing as I would like to know how many people really viewed my projects, not just how many times I accidentally generated views by testing my project from the project page.

Btw, I am using Safari on a Mac, if that matters.

Also, so sorry if this is a repeat, I feel like this would have already been discovered but I couldn't find it anywhere in the bug tracker.

not a glitch, in 1.4 it used views by IP's, now it does it by views like in youtube, whenever you view it, it adds one. That is probably why some of my projects now have 115 views rather than 15-20 on the old site.

same, i loved the old way, but with the new version, you can use cloud variables and the user ID block to do it like the old way
