I'm going to set-up a scenario here. A user signs up, makes some posts, is a member on the forum for a while, and then for some reason decides that he needs more likes. So he creates a second account (or contacts his friend to do the job for him) and likes every single one of the first account's posts, so that the user now has 200 or more additional likes.
Two established users could also do the same thing, agreeing to like every post the other user has. All of a sudden both of them have 1000 more likes.
Is there anything implemented to stop this sort of abuse? You could delete the second user (and perhaps give a warning or temporary ban to the first user), but is there anyway to clean-up the like count? Or would you have to go through the database and manually remove every like on every post?
Thanks.
