It would be very easy for websites to weight upvotes so that one from someone who seldom uses them weighs more.
- lamontcg 3y agoThat probably incentivizes selling accounts to bot farms, usually in social media you give more weight to people who have stuck around longer rather than the accounts that have less activity and might be fake.
- extraduder_ire 3y agoI think slashdot did something like that, but limited the amount of total votes you have per day. But that site's a little before my time. Would be nice if you could set the weights on voting yourself, along with other aspects of site moderation/ranking.
