Preventing Point Abuse

    Hi Gabriel,

    I recently asked about allowing authors to get points every time one of their posts were viewed. Is there some way to determine if there is any abuse of the system? What I mean is what is there to stop an author from consistently refreshing is own post to build up points?

    Cheers,
    Chris

    I have not tested this myself but I am pretty sure that there is already a system in place for multiple rewarded of points of the same post.

    That would be ideal yes. But the only way I could think of where that could be prevented is if the person viewing the post is logged in so it can determine (and log) which users have viewed the post. Unless it is logging IPs (which should work).
