Can we complain in unison?

I have an issue with the unnamed leader on politics leader board. That person just went up another 30 best answers in the last day. If I mention the leader by name my posts are violated. The leaders best answers are 50% which is impossible considering the nature of this section. Some of the leaders have as high as over 70%. It is obvious they are cheating.

In a non partisan fashion, can we all agree to complain loudly and often that the board is a sham because of the abusers? And that others that really earned the right to be there are beaten away?

I know it does not matter much to some of you, but to me it matters because it is like Mao and Stalin stuffing the ballot box and cheapens this place even more.

Can we all do that in unison, instead of letting our partisan politics get in the way?

.

Update:

It is undemocratic and isn't that something we all believe in?

That is where my point is. I don't care that he's a cheater, but it gets a hair up my backside knowing a supposed believer of USA values is perverting that.

Update 2:

And getting away with it for as long as I have been here.

Update 3:

Yea, I am on my 3rd, or is it 4th account for a few obvious reason to a lot of confusing ones. I think the TOS is a not worth the web space it is written on.

    Well, does this happen in other categories?

    I think to some degree it does.

    And our fearless leader with his tag line may be a little better at it

    But what does that matter?

    there are no prizes

    Is any of it all really that important? The whole issue of points is one of the silliest and most pointless feature about here. Don't stoop to the level of caring about any of this stuff.

    Don't sweat the small stuff Jim. I'm on my third account, due to being turned in for "violations" of some kind.
