I am unhappy to see that, lately, MobaFire is having more and more trolls. This is a very serious situation and it makes me sad, I don't want my favourite site on the web overrun by trolls. They are ruining the site with their hate. I just saw a guy that made three accounts to downvote guides. I hope he gets sick and dies, because he really angered me. I know trolls are just normal people, enjoying in spreading chaos and absorbing our hate because they had a bad day/week/month/life, but something HAS TO BE DONE. Something like anti troll rules. If you troll once, get a warning and a short ban, troll twice and get IP banned from the site. I think that is really what we need now... Tell me what you think.
Our rules on "troll voting" state:
We receive many requests to delete what authors consider to be "troll votes" on their guides. We wish to be clear about our stance regarding these requests. We will only revoke votes if we find proof that the user has circumvented system protections, such as in an effort to vote multiple times on same content. This is against the site rules.
Further, there are a number of situations commonly reported as "troll votes" that we will NOT take action against. This includes (but is not limited to);
1) Voter did not provide a valid defense or explanation (meaningless comments).
2) Voter misunderstood an aspect of the guide.
3) Author disagrees with voter's opinion.
4) Voter is rude in their comment.
The point of the voting system is to try to gain an accurate measurement of the general reader opinion of the content on the site for the purpose of ranking. If the voter misunderstood or disliked some aspect of your guide, others will too, and so their vote is representative and necessary. We may moderate the comments themselves if they are nasty, but we will not delete the associated vote.
Open your eyes. There is no guaranteed safe way to ban people from the site, and there are actually a lot of people who make accounts JUST to vote on a guide because they thought it was really good or really bad.
Your methods would just ruin the site and turn it into trash.
So following your way of thinking, you should get a short ban since you're obviously trolling
P.S. MOBafire doesn't have many trolls. 4Chan has.
