TOS is at admins discretion/ upvoting by sleeper accounts gets you nixxed - even (presumably) you have no idea who those accounts are , have no relationship with them other than them continually up voting your posts..
A public list of known sleeper/ fake voat accounts might be helpful .
"Voat" accounts?
Do you mean "poal?"
Agree - it would be helpful to have a list like that.
'Fake voat accounts' is admin speak ...
Thanks for explaining, Dass.
I can create an account and upvote you or a power user and they'll get a negative account?
Is it a sleeper account?/. Are multiple one sleeper accounts regularly up voting posts together ?/.
'Ask the admin - he's got a algorithm !!'

Guilty until proven innocent? Hard to believe that.
I'd love to see all ALTs banned on POAL. It would help avoid a lot of bullshit.
If someone is being upvoted by alt/ sleeper accounts, then those accounts doing the up voting aren't actually banned.
'Guilty until proven innocent? Hard to believe that.'
Hard to believe what ??. Getting your account nixxed bc alt/ sleeper accounts are upvoting your posts ??.
Well it is TOS - and as i had repeatedly told to me by lots of frequent users when i brought it up 3 or 4 years ago - ' if don't like it, go somewhere else. It's his site !!'..

I'd prefer a list of known alt/ faker voat/ sleeper accounts, so users can ignore them and the ability to move the cursor over a post/ comment vote count to see what users have up or down voted.

Thanks for a productive comment. I was so floored by that I had to read it twice.
I'd love to have a list of who owns what for alts and sleepers, or just the list of alts and sleepers. That feature could end some of the bullshit.
Maybe you knew this, maybe not - you can see the down voters now, click on the post, click the circular (world?) icon on the right under the post to see the list of who has down voted it. Not sure if that works for comments too. So few downvotes are cast I haven't had an opportunity to try the feature on comments.
