You're just splurging lies at this point, reddit has always put plenty of effort towards vote manipulation. I dislike reddit but stop making stuff up just for votes.
You're both right. They are FINE with manipulation if it's something they want to promote. But if it's not allowed in their dogma then it's banned.
I'll agree with that.
People are welcome to try for themselves, which is how I originally learned they do fuck all. They didn't even clear the lowest bar of "20 upvotes from 20 accounts, on the same IP with no other activity, just switching with RES".
Maybe that's changed in the decade since, but the search results for "buy reddit upvotes" don't bode well.
It has changed since, in fact for me the watershed moment of change came when RES stopped being able to calculate upvotes/dv's because there was no longer clear feedback that your vote counted.
Does that mean they fixed the problem or did they simply make it impossible for people outside of reddit to see the extent of it?
