He developed this feature on a test instance of poal and I saw it and really liked the concept. I think it would really help with the brigading problems poal has been having.

It doesn't make voting habits viewable on a per account basis just on a post basis so it would take a lot of work to compile someones voting habits.

So please let us know what you think, is this something you guys think would do some good for the site? I know it would probably at times make people more hesitant to downvote but it also would make brigadiers more hesitant to act.

You've got a good point, but we could also make this feature visible only to accounts with a certain level.

It won't prevent them from creating a fake friendly account to reach the required level though.

Yeah exactly. Then they create /s/levelmeup and go there to level up each other's accounts.

Anything related to gaming votes in the intent to brigade and hurt the community will be handled.

That includes alt accounts and subs devoted to gaming accounts' level and brigading.

Yeah I feel like you could easily monitor who’s gaming the system by mapping the account interactions with another account’s posts.

The more often two or more accounts interact indicates a greater likelihood of level farming, and then just watch which subpoals they use. I feel like there’s an algorithm that fits somewhere in my description, idk though
