Ghost Votes in the Trades Voting thread are being deleted!

[Ambrai]

A member created 2 new accounts and posted 2 votes in addition to his origional vote.

This member has been suspended and the alternate accounts have been banned.

The ghost votes will not count towards the total, I should delete this as well but I will let him keep '1' vote.

Proof:

Cube: ip 209.14.83.15
JohnJohn ip 209.14.83.15
PSOWORLDFAN ip 209.14.83.15

Cube's email and JohnJohn's match as well save they are at a different provider (ie [email protected] and [email protected]). They are unique enough to have 100% certianty that its the same user.

Great. Just what we need. Duped votes.

Duped votes. That's kinda funny.

Duped votes. That's kinda funny. But even more saddening...

I'm stunned at the level of ignorance of some of the people on this board. Ambrai asks for input from the members and a then decides to have a vote on whether or not to keep a particular forum, and people condemn her for it?

Good Lord, people (such as Cube, Finn, etc.)... what other sort of experience with Message Boards do you all have? A despotic moderator/administrator would simply delete the forum if they wanted, without asking for opinions or a vote. Like it or not, this MB belongs to the staff, not us, and we are here at their leisure. A smart staff takes the opinions of their members in account, and this is exactly what Ambrai is doing.

So, tell me, do you guys also gripe about the fact that we are allowed to vote for a new president every four years? I mean, according to your definition, that's tyranical as well, isn't it? Ugh.

Ambrai, thanks for going through all the trouble of getting the opinions and votes of folks here on this issue, even if it isn't appreciated by some...
