Good news -
I just received a message from Jay through email saying "we can now remove the exact amounts found to be added by bots for all coins".
So I guess 80% is no more.
They will just remove the automated votes!
Nope. That's not what he told me. He will remove the automated votes in the future, but the 80% is fixed in stone for the 3 coins he listed
Here is an excerpt (the very last part) of my conversation with Jay, dev of Mintpal:
(This conversation depicts the attitude of Jay who runs Mintpal. A greedy, unresponsive piece of shit)

This is what happen when you think too high of your self. He thinks because he fuckin own mintpal that he doesn't have to listen to any of his members. But he forgets that his members are the one making his site a good one.
