Hi council, Im reaching out for some help and advice on one of our voting threads in which we detected some suspicious voting patterns, and also what we think might be fake/duplicate accounts created specifically for voting.
The poll thread is for
the "Other" category
. There are only 3 votes separating winning from second place, so it's quite important for fairness that we do our best to remove any fraudulent votes. There's a little bit of further info
in this post.
When I created the poll, I created it anonymous which now makes it harder still to figure this out. Ofcourse, I don't have any site privileges to see a full list of accounts that voted. Is there someone on the mod/web site admin side we can work with to either get the poll opened so we can see who voted, or who can provide a list of accounts which voted and who they voted for, or even to return totals after ip duplicates/accounts created after a certain date are removed from the results? I also have a sample list of accounts that are suspicious I could provide if it helps.
I understand Reggie might be the person to work with. I've contacted him previously on 26th, 30th, and 31st but have not received a response as yet. If he's not available for a period of time would there be someone else we can work with?
As you may know, we have collected over $1000 of donations from Maemo.org members and I want us to work together to make sure each $1 is awarded as fairly as possible. Thanks for your help.
