Forums / Maintenance / Report Problems

Recently I've noticed that on this site that a lot of pro-Trump stuff has been downvoted a lot recently. And by a lot I mean in the -40s and -50s range. Here's a couple of examples:

If you've noticed the comments have been downvoted as well to the point that they've all been buried.
This seems like possible bot behavior to me. I just wanted to report it so someone who might be able to tell for certain can check. I just find it highly suspicious how 40 people would just mass downvote a single image and all the comments on it.

I sent a PM to James about it a little bit ago.

We don't really have a real "rule" about this, but if it's like 3-4 guys with a bunch of accounts on the same IPs they will be dealt with.

I'd like to think that it was that one guy with 50-some dv-alts (ayyjohn, was his name?), but he seemed pretty pro-trump to me.

I deleted the thumbs and deactivated the users.

Cool, although I still suspect light activity on the 2016 presidential election entry's comments. We should keep an eye on that.

The comment section is pretty active so “light activity” could just as well be legit votes.
