Just so members know, someone has created dozens of accounts just to upvote this one submission.
Not saying it was /u/piamie but obviously I'd be suspicious and weary of any link that gets upvoted in such a dishonest and manipulative way.
Src: New user log with a bunch of new users using the format: [same-name][random-letters] all with 1 submission vote. Not hard to figure out what they're voting for when this is the highest voted submission on the site and when the amount of created accounts is within a few numbers of a 'normal' submission upvote. (Most things get 2 or 3 upvotes, so if there are 29 new accounts all with the same name, all that have only upvoted 1 submission... It's safe to say it's likely this one. I can't see what people vote for but I can see how many votes people have given out, but nothing specific.)
Would it be possible to require a time delay for upvotes and posts for new accounts? Even an hour or two would be enough to make it a pain to do this sort of thing.
