Whats all the fuss about ???
Since man has decided to live in social groups and considered "voting" as a proper way of reaching a collective desicion, cheating has been part of it.
It is very natural and human also, that "Community leaders"
take "care"of individuals they believe in not to be good for the community.(Otherwise there would not be facilities for social correction)
History shows us that its done all the time,everywhere.
Is that fair ? Nope, but Mother Nature never developed the concept of "Fairness " in the harsh struggle for survival.
The Question asked is : Does it work sufficiantly to survive ?
Rosity has done a fair job on that, otherwise it would not exist.
As long as community members, even if angry, support it
and are willing to benefit from the services as well as live with the backdraws it must be considered as "Fit".

Everyone, not happy with what happend, still supporting
the community may it be with art, freebies and comments(qualified or not) is at least "Tolerating" the way it works and i doubt if thats any better than the actual cheating(if there was any cheating in the first place which just seems obvious but is not prooved), talking of ethics that is.
I have voted for AOY(not Legume lol) AND IM NOT HAPPY about not beeing considerd fit for Voting, but then again , seeing this desicion in the hand of someone deniying the puplic the right to vote instead of faking a set of stats decently to reach a goal,( i have seen that done elsewhere and no one noticed)
makes me see this with humor.
It would have spared them a lot of trouble and us folks a lot of writing,
shit happens
