I'm suspecting that I have a voting circle on my subreddit, what can I do about it.

PM raldi; he usually monitors voting abuse. He can tell who's doing what. You should know, however, that if several valid users are voting once per submission, that's probably not against the rules. That said, I've never understood why banned users are allowed to vote (probably because it's so easy to create a new account).

Shut.

Down.

EVERYTHING.

Hey, I mod /r/nfl and am in close contact with the other major sports reddit mods. /r/mls had a problem with downvoters swarming in from /r/soccer. It was literally European soccer fans coming in to downvote and shit comment the MLS because it was 'American and not as good football as European football.' The mods there tried banning, but in the end had to remove down arrows. I know this won't help if they turn off stylesheets, but it very well may have saved that reddit (as most /r/soccer subscribers had custom stylesheets on to show off their club logos).

I'd try other's suggestions first, like PMing the mods, and remove downvotes as a last resort, and delete content that doesn't belong (if the downvote circle starts submitting stuff going directly against your reddit and upvotes it, also ban them).

Your basically experiencing hivemind backlash. You have a different opinion than the majority of the 20-something pseudo-intellectuals and the less mature of them are, well, being less mature about it.

Sadly, Kokey's runs a tiny little empire of ersatz skeptics.

For it produces no real concrete peer reviewed science to back up their outlandish so called skeptical claims (pretty useless 8X10 color photo's though).

It is best summed up in the words of Upton Sinclair :- "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it!"

Who benefits indeed?

Edit 1:- If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen!

You do have a 'voting circle' - http://www.reddit.com/r/climateskeptics/comments/d6b63/a_skeptical_view_of_climate_models_by_hendrik/c0xxwkb

However you have suppressed my submissions instead of those of the people from 'inside' of the above circle - http://www.reddit.com/r/climateskeptics/comments/d62n9/it_seems_that_suppressing_dissent_is_the_norm_now/
