In that example, he's (diabolically) using multiple accounts to upvote his own questions. Genius, in a way. But I doubt everyone has the time and energy though to maintain a stable of fake accounts to boost your own stats. I can understand fear of negative karma but the throw-away account will still receive just as much hostility (maybe more), you just don't keep the record of it attached to you. Is that better? I guess, a little bit, maybe.
