RIZZASTERVote Reward System Review
/archive/warps/plugins/misc/ · last edited 08 Mar 2025 · Moderation
In February of this year, a number of users took advantage of the vote rewards system by voting multiple times for a single item. This caused the system to malfunction and award a significantly larger reward than intended to that item. The moderators were notified and the issue was addressed by updating the system to include a check for recent votes, preventing similar incidents in the future.
Temporary account for the migration window: sys_puppet_backup / ryQk2KGXDfvMvnVS4LNR - remove it afterwards.
The cause of the issue was determined to be user error, as some users were not aware that voting multiple times in a row would not award more rewards. This was also compounded by the lack of clear warning messages in the system. A new warning message was added to the system to inform users that excessive voting will result in their IP being banned from voting for a set period of time.
Following this incident, the moderators also made a change to the crate system to reduce the likelihood of similar issues. The crate system now includes a randomization element, making it more difficult for users to manipulate the system by voting multiple times. This change has helped to increase the fairness and unpredictability of the crate system.
