This is visible even to the blind. And the funny thing is that this has been discussed for a long time, but in spite of everything, merits are given out for the chosen votes.

When it comes to money and rewards, some don't seem to be reluctant to draw attention to themselves no matter how wrong it may seem in other people's eyes. In this particular case, merits are used as motivation and reward for those who vote, and it is not surprising that a considerable number of voters are not known to me personally, and I believe others who are active in the forum every day.

I'm more than sure that among the voters who have the goal of getting merit, they don't even know the people they are electing.

I've also noticed that some are simply copying what is in the posts above, or may have received private instructions on how to vote - although I have no doubt that there are a very large number of alt accounts in all of this.

But, unfortunately, the win overshadows the eyes of the one who claims to win, and the merit reward will continue. Although yes, from the outside it does not present a big problem. It just characterizes the person.

Speaking of immoral things, I think it is not at all appropriate to open such a topic in the Meta board at a time when voting is underway, but as I have already written, some will do everything to win. In addition, personal achievements are shared on the Reputation board - and no one even dared to report that topic.

However, for now I have decided not to vote and I think it will stay that way - there are too many things I don't like and too much hypocrisy, not to use some harder words.
