The issue with limiting IP addresses is an issue. Static IP's are everywhere. Even your home can have routers with multiple computers and one IP. That means we would limit membership to one person per household or one person per office building. I do not want to do that. I have no problem with recruiting people to join the site and vote for your boat. The problem is that really isn't what we intended on doing. Sure we want you to win, but we also want to win. We win by bringing in members who sign up, start new threads or post to existing threads and stay involved. Simply signing up to vote then falling off the planet is not a win for us. I'm still leaning toward raising the minimum post count. That Gothalos had a great idea, a little extreme as we're still a new site, but in the future 100 post minimum is absolutely not out of the question.
