Thanks for my win and why does not QOTM win if it gets more votes?

I like letting a hare run and see what the "greyhounds" have to say. :lol:

I can look into this in further detail if you like, but I would guess that you are comparing the bulletin board 'thanks' system (one person = 1 thanks regardless of shareholding etc) with the POTM system (votes based on number of shares held by person giving 'Thanks'). Would that explain it? :?

When a large shareholder doesn't "thank" QOTM, it doesn't win POTM. Because said shareholder has a large shareholding, if they vote for other posts but not QOTM, then it won't win even with the other shareholder votes combined.

Personally I think it should be either 1 member 1 vote ,or put a cap on the number of votes any member has at say 500 or 1000
