That's not really strong proof. It's simply circumstantial evidence.

I often see divergent results when I post two or more. I may even boost it with fun for an hour or two if it's not actually fun. When one of them takes off, I'll remove the boost and sometimes the insightful as there's no need for both on the front page. If I post in a default/popular sub like /s/Conspiracy or /s/Politics it's sure to get noticed, but if I post in another sub it may or may not get any notice or traction at all. And much depends on the time(s) of day it's posted.

Ultimately all it takes is one or two doots and/or comments to push one ahead of the others to gain momentum. If there's no conversation under a second post folks won't visit there. If it's in a default sub the chances are much much much greater it will be noticed. Only the subscribed and /s/All will see it.

14:05 /s/Conspiracy <-- default + good drama
02:02 /s/Jesuits
01:00 /s/NationalistRevolution

This doesn't surprise me.

I posted my proof here: https://saidit.net/s/conspiracy/comments/8k6q/jesuit_control_over_freemasonry_admitted_by_many/vtae

If anyone suspects voting manipulation, hit me up and I will check the post.

I saw that. Good detective work.

Shame it had to be called out for him to admit it. Worse shame he even did it. Stupid shame he thought he could get away with it.

I'm not questioning your methods or the extra info you can find.

I'm just stating how it seems from my perspective and why the numbers don't seem to out of place to me.

What was odd was how his posts were getting so much attention on the regular. I'd assumed people were fans. I am often one to look at select user's content before everything else (you, M7, zyxzevn, Drewski, etc etc etc). Sometimes I even pre-vote/mark it before I've even read it (always good), and on rare occasions I don't catch up to my reading list.
