I think most competitions are okay with support upvotes like this program or @qurator, but you would want to check with the hosts. What they're usually trying to prevent are upvotes from bidding bots, etc.
If you do find a contest where it's a problem, you can share the link to your post with us in our comments section or on the discord and we will go back and remove the upvote.
If this comes up a lot, we will add a #SBIdecline tag to our blacklist when we finish setting up our own voting bot.
Thanks for this, I will do as you suggest. Very progressive way of thinking!
