Do you think maybe there is a whole lot of cheating going on around here?

I have reported abuse with her answers 4-5 times already. The 12 thumbs-ups, and up to 10 "best answer" votes on her answers (in a category where generally 2-3 best answer votes will win it) are a giveaway. Many of her answers are nonsense, which kind of defeats the purpose of this forum.
So all we can do is keep clicking the "abuse" button and hope someone at Yahoo will cut her off.

Ah', Evilm pretty much "hit the nail on the head" ie., thumbs up. Not that it's a biggie, but I just don't understand why someone would do that (giving thumbs up to themselves)? The only thing that comes ta' mind is self recognition, but that's just playin' games with your own brain. Hey, I get on this site daily not only just ta' pass on what little I know bout' fishin', but to find out from others what I've been missin'!! The old sayin', "Ya' learn somethin' new every day" ;)...
Edit : Yep I's a' back, just wonderin' if he/she sees all of these responses ~ THINK THEY'LL GET THE HINT ; ) ; ) ; )!!??

Yeah, she is "scamming" Yanswer's for point's.
Who cares about the point's!
I just get a "thrill" helping someone fall in love with my favorite sport, FISHING!
Fishing is a passion I would give to everyone I know! (Unfortunatly, I can't get my 12 YR old off the crap@ss video-games long enough to "catch the fever" lol).

I would have to say that you have landed a whopper with this one . One question was- whats another name for a Fl. Redfish? Her answer- Redfish. And that received the best answer award. About 4-5 other answers was Red Drum, Bull reds, rat reds ect... I can see that fishing for 35 years has taught me nothing.(HAHA)

Ha. Never thought of that one but it makes sense. Register two or more screen names then vote for one or the other as a best answer?
Why would someone go to the trouble?

i realized she musta been cheating when i gave a good answer to a question (so i thought) she gave a simple one but got the best answer with 12 votes to my 2 or 3. how about we all hit the "report abuse" icon on her/it. we come to the fishing section to learn from others and teach others and this kinda ruins it. darn it, she took Away my best answer! lol

Yea she is voting for herself or getting friends to do it...many of her answers are far to simple to get best answer...best way to stop this is if you ask a question, pick a best answer....I probably have forgotten more about fishing than she knows...lol...

actually yes because I have checked most of her answers and if you have noticed when you look at her votes their always 12 up and 1 down or she will always have the most votes on a question.
