Allow 1 account here per IP address/ stop Unregistered votes planned
It's obvious the votes on this forum are being abused by a few people regsitering numerous accounts and unregisitered votes.
The Russian language poll shot up from a handful of votes to over 500 in a single day, then the 3D chip thread made a similar jump to go from around 300 to 800 overnight.
Personally I really like the idea of this feedback forum, it's a great way for us to let Nokia know the areas that are most in need of attention, but I think unless they implement some sort of IP check to stop people re-registering again & again or casting a ton of unregsitered votes, the feedback will be pretty pointless and completely unacurate.
Yes, this is obviously a problem. Right now I have turned off anonymous voting and when we are reviewing the ideas we are well aware of ideas that appear to have been open to abuse.

I figure this is what happened with the 'russian language' thread.
I mean, it wasn't even here last week and now it is the most voted one?
Yeah, right.

Hey Tetlee, thanks for bringing this up, we have turned off anonymous voting and we are working with the UserVoice folks on some measures to cut down multiple accounts.

marianop89, yeah, I can see the problem there, you should at least need to verify your email address before being able to cast a vote.
Also just cutting out anonymous votes would go a long way to culling the problem as it would make fake voting more hasstle(a couple of the polls have around 800 anonymous votes).
