So you mentioned 'Comments have all been heavily tested' what is that supposed to mean.
Are you aware that there are limits to everything, there is an algorithm in place. Fresh ips, and fresh accts are for your system is the worst setup you can do, liteally the worst, without any limits put in place into your system then your going to have a tough time getting the rotten apples out before they mix with your healthy apples to rate comments up.
Literall your setup is nothing different than getting a bunch of ips and letting them rate on autopilot since thats what you are doing.
I am critizising you because you haven't spend the required time to do any testing at all, your heavy testing apperantly wasn't done right to find the right things that you need to build this out. You need limits, thresholds, checking, you have none of those and are rating automatically without any restrictions what so ever . On top of that you haven't even posted common knowledge of what comments can't go to the top.
At least post it on your software that your comment needs to be BEFORE PAGE 10 to go to the top. I saw like 5 comments being rated that were beyond page 10 and were wasting ratings.
You programmed a bot that has been programmed and has always not be the problem, the problem is the limits, thresholds, algorithm checks . Thats where you haven't done a single thing , all you did was post comments to say your system worked, which anybody can do that. You never put any limits in place to prevent your so called 'ghostin' which in reality 'ghosting' is the commenter's fault not the rater's fault. And comments not goin to the top , well you should know that by now since you are 'providing quality' information as you quote and quote are saying.
