You can be sure Chris will vote on more posts than the average member, and he will do it with all his accounts. Then if they think the forum is important enough, commercial interests will pay employees to create hundreds of accounts to flood the voting process and promote posts friendly to their company while censoring those against. This appears to have already happened on Slashdot. I agree that something needs to be done about the overload on this board, so it is easier to find the interesting articles. But this isn't it, unless you have some clever new ideas to stop vote rigging.
