Basically, You can make alt accounts to vote for your fav anime/manga. YouTubers tell their fans to vote a certain show bc they like it. This affects the rating system. From now on, Troll/Spam accounts will be banned.
P.S I didnt read the whole thing.

They wont affect the score but they will affect the popularity and favorites and discussion votes etc. Thats still bad.

It seems to have worked, this is not in the top 10 and an animes score drops a lot once the series is complete when the non fanboys give their vote.

Just look at the episode thread, 70% of the posts are half a sentence first posts, probably all done by the same guy tying his self worth to a cartoon.

Hmm dont know about this. Some people make a big deal out of this. Also even if no one pays attention to this, its still surprising how popularity ranks over here are so different as compared popularity ranking on Anilist. I actually used to look at popularity ranks much more then scores when I did not have an account on MAL.

Yeah favorites do have a similar system but I still dont trust it that much. Sometimes it has been reliable, other times it has been questionable.

You rarely see anyone bringing it up on the forums, it's pretty much always about the score ranking. That said, I also don't like it when stats are altered by people with way too much time on their hands.

Yeah people do care about score too much. Stats altering like this is one of the reason why these rankings are unreliable over here.

is this the reason FMAB ratings have fallen a bit? Or is it cause Bleach fans are trying to keep Bleach at #1

Not true. There is vote manipulation and everyone knows it.

Even sometimes MAL Staffs itself manually change the scores of anime like they did with Ishozoku Reviewers.

Can someone explain how this is 7.45:
