This keeps getting discussed, and I think almost all of us dislike the whole concept of rewarding voters - but the unfortunate fact is, as Synozeer has said in the past, it is very difficult to actually try and prevent such activity.
The reason I object to such tactics is because they severely unbalance the results (by dramatically increasing the percentage of the playerbase who will vote). However my personal concern at this point is the venom of all the other posters towards this approach - because it's obviously not going to sway Achaea in the slightest, but it is going to discourage other people from following suit.
While I would love to see voting rewards banned, the result of the many length debates on TMS (and my own discussions with Synozeer) has shown that it's simply not feasible. But I would rather at least see the other muds use the same approach - and thus put them on the same playing field - than let Achaea monopolise such an unfair advantage and make itself look much more popular than it really is in relation to the other muds in the rankings.
