Warning VOAT is logging your IP, source is a year old on github and ideas board is lying to you. (technology)

submitted ago by eronburr

  • Create account-A on device 1
  • Create account-B on device 2
  • UPvote any comment with account-A, confirm gray UPvote turn blue.
  • Same comment with account-B, confirm see gray UPvote means you didn't vote with this account.
  • UPvote and get error "Denied - Vote has already been registered (Comment Vote Identity 2.8)".

Only thing in common is your IP. No way for voat to know other than they log your IP.

Source code on github is over a year old, no mention of logging IP.

I submitted a request to log 3/4 of your IP to ensure trolls and shills are identified and the idea was knocked down for spying and free speech and not wanting to identify people to comments. It's all a lie.

So basically, you seem to be admitting to attempting to game the voting system and are pissed off to discover that there's something in place to combat such a thing? That sure sounds familiar...

Wonder of wonders, here you are attempting to hide in plain sight in that very same thread linked above:

Why is the one guy spamming the same comment over and over "Hello, I live in France..." Bot, maybe?

Ugh you dumb lame piece of shit.
If I were gaming it I wouldn't admit it and post details. I did all of this after posting a suggestion this needs to be done, but needs to be public/semi-anonymous. I did all of this after being told numerous reasons why they wouldn't do what I suggested and learning they lied.

You're either too fucking stupid to see this or you're just another voat admin account shilling to distract people from the point that voat is compromised and has no good intentions.

You are transparent as fuck.

I had posts minutes before you commented so no reason to think I wasn't around, shithead.

you got 1 upvote on a weeks old post within minutes.

Enough said. Should have known voat was a shill board when it begged for $6k/mo to keep online.

I wasn't stalking your comment history.

I put a pin in your bullshit days ago. I told you and your ilk not to push me, but, you kept pushing...

you got 1 upvote on a weeks old post within minutes.

Perhaps because I made sure some users were aware of my comment? Dunce.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Yeah man, that totally seals it. You done cracked the case, flawless logic.
