Does SP really have that many lurkers?

I was pretty bored, blankly staring at my monitor while I was on SP's General Maplestory board, and I started looking at the viewcounts. That MSea one had 10k and I was like oh man that's a lot of views, and then I looked at the Time Temple thread which was created YESTERDAY and it had like 2k views! hot dayum!

Intrigued, I skedaddled on down to sleepymorningwood and compared the viewcounts of General Maplestory boards, and we actually have MOAR LURKERS. What makes SP a better source of Maple information?

Also, I believe this image holds relevance to the topic at hand.
