//after a recent post by kchahdog about unethical karma farming last month a similar case :frowning:

I noticed that this user was upvoted nearly 12 times in a matter of 5 mins by this user today(with same name).

he seems to be a user with good reputation(seeing his karma) , i dont know whether he is part of this or the work of any other user who resort to this way to ruin his reputation(creating a same username as his name).

Can anyone especially admin look into this

@upendra1234 is active in codechef discuss and contributed a lot in past. He was never a part of these type of activities. Lets hope that it’s a mistake. I Think someone is trying to defame active users on codechef discuss. Hope @admin looks into this matter , otherwise it will be a problem for genuine users who help others through codechef discuss platform.

I had already sent an email to them earlier today about this.Its up to Codechef people to decide about the specific user. Hope no one is trying to spoil his reputation.

@squal Thanks for pointing this out for me also… Don’t worry this is not done by me . Whenever I found time to write something for anybody I used to do so.

And I only consider codechef.com to increase my coding skills not to get good karma . I am on codechef since last 15-16 months and also hosted one contest for my college tech-fest.
I respect codechef.com and also its community so guys don’t make such kind of answers that make me feels cheater.

Thanks again I will also e-mail codechef.com to block the id with this username .

@kcahdog there is nothing like inflated my karma graph its only depend on your activeness on this website if you post something relevant you will get karma.

Thanks
