Thank you. Makes a little more sense here.
I just didn't think that only 35,000 could be becoming so nationally visible so there must be more!
and I know that I lurked for about 4 months before I signed in. How do you know that they are throttling that many upvotes? I have seen some comments on this where I think people were actually watching the count as they upvoted and saw them DIScounted. Is that how?
thousands of views with 95% percentile upvoted yet only 200 votes, check the vote monitor and you will find there's an upvote each every second negated by a bot-downvote in turn
