What do you do to undermine trust on social media like Sphinn? You use or create 10 new users some of with with 0 votes and all of them with no avatars to vote your story up...
And the others that are known that did vote are well aware of the experiment that is being run for the next article. I noticed it myself last week (God bless sphinn live) and wanted to push for a bury or spam feature.
@DaveDavis - how any given social media site can be gamed is hardly news. And you’re not the first to do this here, and we have been aware of the limitations of the platform since our private beta. We’re continually adding features and implementing user requests to make this a more robust platform. A feature (similar to a bury feature) for users is on the list. Your "experiment" is unlikely to change our development path and send us into a frenzy to provide it sooner than planned however.The majority of users do not engage this way at Sphinn, and we have excellent moderators and the ability to remove items and users that are clearly not interested in Sphinn as a valuable and relevant resource. So that will continue to work for us until we bring other tools online.
OK, well in that case please accept my apologies and remove the post. I will contact you by email regarding the issue.
Hi Michelle, I have sent you an email. Thanks.
Most notably this is a good post and does not need gaming, so why use cheap tricks on people who are social media savvy enough to notice from 2 miles away?
