How did this get 10 votes in 3 minutes with only 2 views

in #help7 years ago

I just saw a new story that already had 10 votes after only 3 minutes. I noticed that it had only been viewed twice at that point though. How can that happen?

Thanks for explaining to a newbie!

Bots I suspect. It happened with a comment I left the other day. Seconds after posting I had 8 votes all at once.

Thanks. I'm seeing a lot going on here that makes me wonder about the bona fides of the whole thing.
