I got a warning, but was kinda expecting it for DV hammering spam accounts.

This seems like a patriotic duty, though.

I wish Putt would clearly define "vote brigading".

If you go through a thread where two users are arguing, upvoting the well written logical points of user A and downvoting the "no u" type responses of user B, is that brigading?

I never thought it was in the past, but now I'm not so sure. I always thought brigading required using alt accounts.

It may have to do with whether you participated in the conversation you're downvoting/upvoting. Or if you systematically up or downvoted every single comment, instead of just the ones you disagreed with. Or if you left the thread, looked up the username and went to another thread to downvote their contributions.

The conduct standard should be clearly stated in the Voat User Agreement.

Agreed
