My Least Read Vocal Stories

Introduction

I recently hit fifty thousand reads on Vocal and it got awarded a Top Story and has a lot of comments and hearts but I don't know how many reads it has had because of Vocal's flawed statistics which they refuse to address.

This is the story if you haven't checked it out yet, I think it was due to Dana Crandell's recommendation in the last Vocal Raise Your Voice.

Raise Your Voice is a brilliant Vocal implementation and it really does work, so if you think others should have a top Story, drop a recommendation there and it is likely to be picked up.

This was my piece on the flawed stats situation:

Why Hearts Outstrip Reads

At this moment in time, this is my most unread story with, as you can see zero reads. It is not a bad story but is a concept based on a song that lots of people may have no interest in whatsoever.

In the past I have stated, and we all know that hearts can outstrip reads. The reason is you can drop into a story and leave a heart and leave. Vocal count that as a read but if the visit is not long enough you won't get a credit. If you come back to give the story a full read, it won't count because you have already been there once and Vocal does not count second reads.

However, I wondered how stories that have comments can show no reads and I finally worked it out.

In the story above the guy left a comment and he prompted me to write another story which I did here:

If you go in and check the novel of a comment here, I thought that it was an AI generation. I went and checked his Vocal work and it is all AI generated.

And ironically, he gave me the answer.

You can drop into a story and paste an AI reaction, but not spend enough time for Vocal to register a read.

So in the list above there are twenty-eight hearts and seven reads, but I now know why.
