How we count votes here
Sign in to vote once per launch. Votes stay honest because they're totally separate from any paid stuff.
Updated
We built voting to work one way: you decide what matters, and money can't change that.
To vote, you need to sign in and confirm your email address. That's it—one vote per listing, once, on launches that are actually live. If you're voting for your own thing, you've got to vote for someone else's first. We run quick human checks now and then to keep things legit.
Why votes stay real
Votes, the billboard (that's our paid ranking), verification badges and Domain Rating are four separate systems. We label each one so you always know what you're looking at. No amount of money bumps your vote count. Full stop.
Active community members do earn influence though, which can make their vote count for a bit more weight. That's earned by being here, not bought.
How we stop gaming
We throttle votes—hourly and daily limits stop artificial bursts. If something looks suspicious, we flag it and hold those votes until someone's reviewed them properly. It's not fancy, but it works.
This is your space. Keep it that way.
Questions people ask
- Can I buy votes for my launch?
- No. Votes are community decisions. Paid features like the billboard are separate, and they don't touch vote counts.
- What happens if I vote multiple times for the same launch?
- You can vote once per listing. If you try more than that, limits kick in and suspicious patterns get flagged for review.
- Do active members' votes count differently?
- Members who engage regularly can earn influence, which adds weight to their votes. You earn it by being part of the community, not by paying.
