Okay, here is the situation.

A while a go I noticed a user on Y!A had consistently 8 thumbs up on all of his answers, and 9 thumbs down appearing on all other answers. He has a "best answer" percentage rating in the mid 70% range - WAY out of the normal distribution.

So, I outted that person and since then ...

ALL OF MY answers have been getting 9 thumbs up and 9 thumbs down on all of the other answer. There have been accusations that I was 'cheating' etc.

Fortunaltly, my public back log of answers (both good and bad) show a normal distribution, so my reputation is safe. I AM sorry about any curretn open questions that are suffering because of these tactics

So, here's the question ... spititually speaking, what does your faith teach you about the nature of honor and slander?

I don't think that the morality on Y/A is as high as it should be. It would be nice if some one like me, who was not traditional, but independently religious would get more best answers. But, open mindedness, and serious searching for the best in spiritual or religious ideas is not a high priority these days. One opinion seems to be given the same weight as another, despite the difference in thought put into it. I don't like cheating, and slander, and consider them very bad morally. Good people are being scared away from R/S because of some of the attitudes present. But, this is a reflection of current day morality, so I put up with this.
