Infraction Voting

[YB85]

From the "Why was crittercam banned" thread in General Discussion:

It was a dupe account...honestly, it's the one time I argued for a dupe account (though by then the vote was taken). I loved crittercam.

Why does it take only three votes for an infraction to be given? Shouldn't it be up to a majority? There are eight mods/admins so the vote could be 5-3 against an infraction but the user would still get an infraction. That's a pretty messed up voting system, especially when there is a person or two who I suspect would vote whichever way Jason votes.

Actually I just reviewed what happened and I remembered it a bit wrong (surprise surprise!). What happens with dupe accounts is that they just get banned immediately, though a PM is sent to the original poster and they're asked who they want to keep. Jason dealt with it and banned the dupe, and in this case I said something to the effect of "damn, I get banning dupe accounts and all but crittercam was one of my favorites."

Not all mods can visit jazzfanz every day, so three is a working majority for all intensive purposes.

It also only take three votes for a report to be ignored.

I am sure these mods have dup accounts. I am ****ing positive that lunatic wolf is a mods dupe. Hypocrites fo real

I have a question for mods about duplicate accounts.

I think it' been pretty obvious that some people are using them to juice their rep. power.

It seems to me, that anyone getting caught with a dupe, should have their rep bumped down to a neg. Make them run in the red for a while.

given the context, I read this as anyone caught with dope should have their rep bumped down...
