I cannot make any sense of this suggestion. What is it suggesting? Anyone who gets it want to explain?

[boredinsomniac]

I think "top" refers to LJ Times. The OP thinks the current algorithm for choosing LJ Times entries causes a lot of bot entries to display there, and suggests changes to the algorithm that will favor real entries.

There are also some suggestions for catching more bots in general.

What is "the evaluation record"?

[boredinsomniac]

User evaluation of the quality of an entry?

[trixieleitz]

What do you mean by "LJ top"?

[boredinsomniac]

I think this is about LJ Times.

I'm talking about the count of the number of views and rating records. Evidence that the rating records make bots.

These information and graphs I took here: http://translate.google.ru/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=ru&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Falburov.livejournal.com%2F45332.html

My new suggestions

[ktn5u8sf]

I propose to make the following functions to stop spam and political spin-doctoring in the top LJ.

1. The procedure for checking of intelligence. Once a day (or 2 days), the user should be checked necessarily.

2. The verification procedure should include something like this:
- The confirmation code ReCaptcha,
- The security question (example: "Enter the sum of five and three", and the number should be chosen randomly).
The number of attempts should be limited (eg, 10).

3. Advanced Settings blog. The blog owner should be able to disable certain functions for those users who are not vetted intelligence:
- to write comments,
- to vote in polls.

4. TOP LJ. This should take into account the views and estimates from only those users who tested intelligence.

Yes, I rejected it because it looked like mostly a duplicate of this one. I should have explained that. Sorry if I misunderstood.

For Administration LJ

Administration LJ how you can comment on the above information, those graphics? Real-time monitoring of the top 20 can be viewed here: http://protiv-er.ru/lab/top/
The proposed measure me, check all the users once a day ( http://suggestions.livejournal.com/1077888.html?thread=17311872#t17311872 ), of course has a drawback: it is not convenient. What the steps you intends to stop artificial wrap ratings and number of visitors?
