Add a "vote cleaner" feature
It would be good to have a streamlined way to remove suspected multiple votes from single users.
We propose adding this to the dashboard. Step 1 would show you suspected double votes. Step 2 would allow you to delete any or all of them.

V2BlastAny updates on this? It's really tedious to have to deal with the few users abusing the system even after such vote manipulation is detected - right now, it seems like it's only possible to do manually. This feature is absolutely essential to using the platform - otherwise, I'm wasting way too much of my time canceling votes even when it's just 1 or 2 problem users.

Steve McLeod AdminWe have a basic version of a vote cleaner available. You can view in by viewing a suggestion, then selecting "Voting options" -> "View upvotes" -> "Remove multiple votes at once"

Thomas LippertPlease extend the vote cleaner page with two features:
* Allow sorting of the table. So I can see similar IP or email close to each other
* Highlight potential double votes (or list them at the vote cleaner page (or at least the top 5)
At the moment, there is no good process to work though a longer list -

FuryoftheStarsIf you're going to do this, then there needs to be a way for someone to see the things they've already voted on regardless of the device they are using. I'm sure I'm guilty of voting on things multiple times myself, but that has more to do with things that I vote on with my PC are not visible as being voted on from my phone and vice versa, not to mention each time I have to clear my cookies from my web browser it resets everything again.

Steve McLeod AdminWe now have an automated vote cleaner available. It runs nightly and deletes duplicate votes (by IP address) that are at least 7 days old, and are not proxy votes (made using our "vote on behalf of" feature).
At the moment, this feature is only available on request. -

Thomas LippertThank you, Steve. Is this currently a Beta test, or will this feature remain to be available on request only?
Similar to V2Blast, I have a small number of users, which try to trick the system. Any automation would help
