Prevent rating abuse

#43

Assigned to Tender discussion #4. Link: http://help.themoviedb.org/discussions/website-support/4-rating-irr...

As reported in Tender:

I see that poster/fanart rating is back. That's great! But going through some of the movies, I have noticed some odd voting behaviors and think some people might have found a flaw in the system. I've even seen some that have an 11.0/10.0 rating.

The movie Wall-E has two relatively new posters from Speedy_Gonzales, each with quite a few votes. One of the posters is a duplicate and the other is other is what I would rate as bad. All the other posters have been rated rather low.

A poster was added by Dope_Stylezzs on 8/21/2011. It is not very good, but has 39 votes and the highest rating. All the other posters have been rated down to a 4 or below.

There are probably many more suspicious cases. I am guessing some people had found a way to abuse the system while it was broken.
