In all reality, we are stuck at an impass:
Nothing can stop the cheating, without limiting the amount of voters, and therefore, the interest. And whats going to stop someone from "signing up" their alts? Nothing, that process just would make them harder to detect. So that isn't the answer. Limiting the voters to how many posts one has is also bad. You get more comfertable with the community by voting, and then posting. You'll only get arrogant idiots, who come in with a belief that CAP is something other than what it is. Lurking and voting is what makes someone comfertable in the CAP community.
Its a real tradgety that we even have to be discussing this. It really is truely horrible, but it is immpossible to really secure CAP from cheaters.
In the current situation, Cyzir won by 9 votes. I have no doubt that cheating occured. But overturning any community vote would be difficult, unless a huge mass of cheaters were found on one side, and none on the other side. My point is, that cheating will happen, no matter what we do. But it will happen on both sides of the line. So we can't o around overturning every art poll, because we suspect cheaters. We just have to go by the numbers. Its a sad truth, but any limitations will detract honest voters, not people who have enough time to gather up the votes.
