Unjust Downvotes Leading to Approval Delays, Need a Fair Resolution

@sgunhouse I am facing the same problem. Someone has downvoted my ID as well, due to which I am unable to post. Every time I try, it requires approval.
Please check my ID and see how spammers are ruining genuine accounts. Is there no solution to this?
Earlier, even new users could upvote or downvote, which made it easier to manage, and posting wasn't as difficult. But ever since these rules changed, we have been facing more issues. Now, posting feels risky because there's always a fear that someone else might downvote again. -

@sgunhouse see once again the same problem, Please ban such spammers who are unnecessarily downvoting. If they have any genuine issues, they should communicate with us instead. But what’s the point of downvoting genuine users like this?
Please, please help us. -

@leocg When will this problem be fixed? When will my ID be restored? I keep facing the same issue again and again. Now, I’m really angry and extremely frustrated with all this.

@Sherlockholmes007 Will my ID keep requiring approval again and again? Is there no solution to this problem? Should I just leave Opera?

@Holmesreign3182 if you get enough upvotes to counteract the downvotes, you'll be able to post normally. At the moment you should be fine.

@sgunhouse But this is exactly what the spammers are preventing from happening. They keep coming back and downvoting repeatedly. My ID gets approved, and this has happened three times already, but they keep downvoting and ruining it again.

@sgunhouse I know, but the spammers are not even letting my account stay fixed. You had fixed it before, but look, they have ruined it again. How long will this keep happening? Do you know who these people are?

@Holmesreign3182 You yourself can see, if you wish. Find the post(s) that have been downvoted and click on the vote total to see.
Mind you, one has already posted here., so you know him already.

@sgunhouse I have no idea who it is because there is no notification for this. But I want you to pay attention to those who are doing such things and ruining others' IDs. At the very least, you should be able to fix the accounts of those affected.

@sumer2sher You only have 3 posts, it is easy enough to look at each of them and see which have downvotes.. (Hint: if you click on your own name or avatar it will take you to your forum profile, and your posts are listed there. Unfortunately you do need to click through to the original threads to see the vote totals, but as I said right now it is only 3.)

@sgunhouse Yes, I have checked. My second post is currently under attack by spammers. Because of this, my posts require approval, and I am unable to post directly.

@sgunhouse If you can fix my ID, please do so. This is my only request, nothing more. At the very least, I should be able to post without issues.

@sgunhouse Now it's asking for approval before every post, and I can't post at the exact time. What should I do?
Maybe I will have to leave Opera. -

@sgunhouse I have been patient for so many days, hoping that it would get fixed, but it’s still not getting resolved. I have also been negatively affected for no reason. Is there any issue with my posts that people don’t like? I am ready to delete them, but please don’t mess up my account. And please help me fix it.

@Holmesreign3182 Why do you care that much? You joined about 4 days ago, opened a topic asking for help to solve a problem with broken shortcuts and this one to complain about the downvotes and that was all.
I don't remember have seen you trying to help people, trying to be useful. Your only concerning is about not being able to post without having to get approval.
Let's face the facts, that's something very suspicious on your part.
And one interesting thing is that your IP addresses matches some of the ones used by the Temu spammers that have been attacking the forum recently. May just be a coincidence, but for precautions, I think it's better to just ban you.
