GIT is all grey
-
Someone is down voting all the posts in GIT. I visited the forum an hour back and half of the first page was greyed out. I visited again now and the next page is grey too. AFAIK, continuous voting is not allowed. So the uni-voter is voting down every single post in intervals. Could you please look into the issue and kick the uni-tosser on his ar** back.
..Go Green..
Counter it the recommended way. 5-vote the gray posts. That way whoever got voted down ends up with more rep points than they'd normally have. That's certainly not what the univoter wants here :-)

Yeah, I know. I am trying to counter them with my 5's but too soon get a message which stops me from voting for a while. I am wondering how much time does the voter have? :doh: Or wait, is he fed up of his life and has nothing interesting to do!?! :omg:

Yeah I am trying to make the entire first 2 pages red, but presently I am locked out of voting because of too many votes :-)

What's astonishing is that the guy covered the first 150 posts and with the vote-blocks in place that prevent vote-bombing he must have patiently waited and taken his time to do this. In fact he may still be up and doing this in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th pages for all I know.

I would not say that's the recommended way. I can clean up the previous mess, but not (easily) the mess that counter-voting makes.

Well I wouldn't say 5-voting results in a mess. It may be unnatural to see a forum with several up-voted posts but no one complains about that.

How did he work around the IP-address based vote-limitation? Did he/she use multiple IP addresses?

Thank you so much! This completes 30,000 posts in this forum. :Jig: Edit: Just checked, it does. I posted this just to be the 30,000th post poster. Sorry couldn't resist. ;)

Do you keep track of how much time you spend on voting issues (reversing, removing accounts, remonstrations, expostulations, exhortations, contemplations, meditations, lamentations)? You know what to do, just do it. :thumbsup:
Best wishes, Hans
