If somebody made multiple accounts to troll downvote a "rival" guide, is it cool to then call them out on that?

What he said. It could help a little, but there are those people that go through a lot to make their guide seem better. If they downvote yours, downvote theirs. Revenge troll voting is very common, but the first one to do it is the ignorant and immature one...

^ Don't do that.

Do however report some or all of the votes. Making separate accounts just for voting is cheating the system and does warrant a ban.


Thank you to jhoijhoi for the sig, and all the dividers in the guide.

Please read our rules regarding "troll voting" here: http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/forum/mobafire-support/i-have-found-troll-votes-on-the-site-can-i-get-them-deleted-1976

You can report the votes, because using an IP cheat to vote multiple times from the same IP is against the rules. However, 99% of the time they're not cheating IP, and there might just be a few friends targeting your guide, which is not against the rules. So unless you've gotten downvotes from accounts like Mowen, Mowen1, Mowen2, Mowen3 or 5 downvotes in a row that say the same thing the admins probably won't check since it's highly unlikely they're IP cheating and it takes a really long time to check. You need to have cause to believe it's the same person and not just a few friends / coincidence.

I personally don't revenge downvote, because I don't want to stoop to their level, but it's not against the rules.

Revenge voting is dumb, but Mowen's right. And it is hard to catch cheaters,

Just irritating, all that hard-work and not only does it get downvoted, I've no idea how or what needs to actually be improved.

If you want some critiques you can always ask for one in one of the review shops in this subforum. :) Those people usually tend to be helpful and give advice.
