Board Post Contest Achilles Heel.. - GoFuckYourself.com

If they're going to want to disqualify someone for too many posts in one thread, then, the only winners are very likely to be post bots...

A much more coherent and fair rule would be to not double post. When I participated in contests a few times, that is what I tried to avoid.

That works quite nicely and doesn't favor post bots so much.
They can still run the post numbers up, talking to eachother, but they won't have such a huge advantage as they do, now.

For example, if each idiot can only post 100 times in a several thousand post thread. Say three assholes with bots each own five nicks. 1500 of your posts will be fake.
