Yes. With this system it would be important to verify identities on sign up. I think verifying phone number would largely resolve the issue (SMS short codes don't work on VOIP phones). There many other levels to reduce fake accounts that can be added if problems begin to occur.
The main issue is the more difficult sign up is, the less people sign up. It's a balancing act.
With any voting system you have to detect the validity of the votes, even upvotes.

- busymom0 5y agoMake creation of subreddits paid maybe along with phone verification? Imo, moderation logs should all be public. Lobsters does it well: https://lobste.rs/moderations https://lobste.rs/moderations
- evandwight 5y agoVery cool! Thanks for the link!!! It's even open source!
- busymom0 5y agoYep. Though they don't have a concept of communities/subreddits. They rely on tags instead.
- Kihashi 5y ago> SMS short codes don't work on VOIP phones My experience is mostly with Google Voice, but I've not found that to be true. Years ago that was the case, but these days, I've encountered by few that don't work.
- evandwight 5y agoI think google voice may be the exception. Of the 6 other voip providers I've tried none could get short code sms. https://support.google.com/voice/thread/1592118/wellsfargo-short-number-its-not-working-anymore https://support.google.com/voice/thread/1592118/wellsfargo-s...
