☆ Master Sami ☆ Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 [align=center]Hey people, without any further ado lets get to the problem. Many people do this, when they are in a 1 on 1 contest, they create a new account just to vote for themselves, it happened to me and I really think something should be done about it. My suggestion: Anyone less than 150 Posts may NOT vote in a contest, to prevent creating new accounts and vote for themselves. Support? No Support? Supporters 1.

Fishykid Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Ooh that's a good idea to prevent cheating, even though I'm not at 150 posts yet, I'll get there :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.GhostRyder Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 YCM already streesed out that double accounting is a auto ban. So that answers your question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chidori Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 But how would you know someone has a double account? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.GhostRyder Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 YCM data base has all the users IP and when they think the same IP has 2 accounts they investigate and ban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMGAKITTY Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 How about just stating in your own contest that you'll only accept votes from 150+ members? There's no reason to crack down on 1 and 2 stars (some of which are good cardmakers), just because a few people are trying to cheat the system. And I kind of want to know how you know they were double accounting. And that you didn't just lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
☆ Master Sami ☆ Posted August 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 The post count was 1, WOW what a coincidence a new member entered the Contests Thread, then the contest and voted, most new members start making 9999 ATK joke cards and posting in realistic, but you had a WONDERFUL Idea about posting in my contest that I only want 3 Star+ members voting. PS. No Support? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGAKITTY Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Key word being most new members. Its entirely possible (although it does look unlikely) that they jumped into contests first. And no support. Just make your own rules within your thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snitch Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Ironically, all the noobs are supporting this. Stupid idea is stupid. It's clear enough you don't read the rules, because recently me and Hunter decided to enforce a rule within which people with less than 150 posts (I think) cannot start contests. So, just don't play against people you think will do it, and once you sort of pass the two hundred post mark, you stop double-accounting. Either way, just report the double accounter, they get banned, you win anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemniscate Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 - No support - This idea is stupid, it punishes all new members for the actions a few who couldn't be bothered to read and follow the rules. If someone double accounts, they get banned for it, there is no need to create another rule to enforce the same thing, but is broader in definition, and so limits member's rights.

☆ Master Sami ☆ Posted August 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Thanks everyone for stating your opinions! @Snitch: Dude I read the rules, and that's how I came up with the idea, I saw the 150 Posts and less cannot host or judge so I though they cannot vote as well.
