I have complained to Current's staff about people voting on pods just by reading the headline page, I think it is foolish to trust that type of input in that it has a bearing on what is selected for TV.
Those of you who dislike the "hit and run" (usually) down voters, please send a message to current's staff to see if they can require visiting the actual pod to cast a vote. I think that will deter the "raiders" we are seeing doing the hit and run stuff.
People who put as much effort into making sure their pods are informative and properly linked, like Vierotchka, should not be victimized by such slovenly and mean-spirited trolls.
