It varies, but an autonomous system with some minor regulation to make sure the person that won had won based on following the rules of the site is a must(which is what they do).

The problem with other users attributing values is because if a user says something you don't like, or is against what a fan wants to believe will sway the amount of points they give. Like when movie discussions come up, or facts about different comic series, how toylines work with retail chains etc.
So the automatic system avoids that kind of emotional response or blind fan bias.

Oh, I totally agree.

I think the system is fine the way it is, just wondering what other Arkers would do if they could either give themselves extra points, or take points away from someone else.

On the subject of double posts, I've noticed the same pics being posted multiple times in multiple threads. Now on the surface it could be said that this is done to give the pics more exposure, but I think an argument could be made that this is really just an attempt to pad posters post counts.
