Anyone bought PH upvotes?

Question

Its not moral to do so but if others do it, it makes the game unfair.
I read somewhere that they lost to other teams because they didn't use this kind of services, i wanted to know if PH finds out now and stops it!

I think that's really bad!!! PH should be about the best product and not about how much money someone spends on upvotes.

Now Product Hunt is becoming better and better at identifying bots. Just follow the launch charts - they look like cardiograms because of the cutting of fake upvotes.

I think genuine community outreach, interacting with other in the weeks leading to the launch, supporting other founders with real upvotes, feedback and comments is what helps - not buying upvotes.

I haven't been very active on PH, yet even in the limited activity that I have done has led to a good feedback cycle for my launches, and we've even been the featured product of the day twice.

I think Product Hunt has a hidden anti-fraud system and an audit system.
One of my colleagues is unable to make any comments or upvotes using their new account, despite not engaging in any illegal activities. It is possible that this issue is due to the necessity of accessing the platform through a VPN.

Ah, buying PH upvotes is like sneaking an extra cookie from the jar - tempting but not quite fair play, right? Hopefully, PH is donning its superhero cape to tackle this issue and ensure a level playing field for all!
