Seriously how do some of these people think they will get away with it, how can it be worth the time and effort of registering and then submitting the site? It seems odd to me.

Some of those submissions are hilarious. It’s good to see Sphinn are being proactive against the spammers. Can’t believe the first one you mentioned - the title is probably longer than the article.

@aimClear - probably not spam, but definitely annoying.

You all do a fine job modding Sphinn. Rarely see spam and I do tend to look for it.

@Nadeesha - in the example I used (19 votes), I don’t think it was one user voting his/her own stuff up via multiple accounts, I think it was one user getting all his/her friends to vote the story up right after it was submitted.

Thx for all the comments, everyone.

For an example, in that instance where you showed how one submission got 19 votes, it’s pretty obvious that the submitter had created multiple accounts on sphinn to carry out the whole operation. And at the end, was it really worth the effort?

Then again, I suppose that’s why you call someone a spammer

Cheers!

As the Sphinn demographic is predominantly North American, I guess that unless your article is written in English, it’s not going to go hot. Does Sphinn have a policy on foreign language submissions?
