I know there is, because the mod of 30rock banned me for down voting a couple of their bad memes when they posted like 20 at once.
I have no idea how to do it tho.
If it's just a couple accounts doing it, message that admin account they created I guess.
Maybe DM the 30rock mod? When I was trying to figure out what was going on, their modlog looks like they ban anyone that down votes without being subscribed. So apparently they're the subject matter expert.
The new hobby of mods chasing people for not voting the way they like is nasty
It might not be malicious. If a moderator is trying to cultivate a new community and wants certain type of content, one of the things they need to control is the rating of that content.
Imo that's malicious.
They are using their position to influence the trajectory and visibility of posts. The motivation doesn't matter
