Self-Voting Crack Down

    I once accidentally self voted. I was using my friends account, then I had a brain-fart and clicked on that particular save. I thought it was cool, but having an enourmous brain-fart, I upvoted it with his account, and I didn't realize this until I looked at the post author, LinkinParkSuperFan. I almost passed the f*** out. Sure enough, I was later banned for like, a week or so. Damn.

    My bros have different accounts we take turns on the same computer and my save was removed because of that but should we not vote up each others then?

    Nope,it's against the rules to vote on someone save that's within the same network as yours.

    My friend Yuki0354 came round and he voted up my save (space invaders) he was mad about posting a version of my game hacked, does this matter? if it does then I was unaware of this and was given no notice :( Also in order to fix my laggish internet that always breaks, I have to repair it (which is slow and annoying) In the process windows renews my IP adress. Does this matter? if not then I haven't been notified anyway. Also, accidental voting coincidences could of took place on my school network and don't expect me to be able to make sure the whole school doesn't self vote my saves.

    Exactly, I think the system is too harsh :(

    If i may so say, i dont think its legal to track ip address without a consent of the user, and techincally you have to give user agreement to us so we have to agree to it, otherwise tracking the ip adress is considered illegal i think. just saying, maybe a user agreement
