Usually people do it rashly, meaning they give themselves lots of points at one time. This makes it easy to see. He also uses something called an IP address, but I don't know what it is...

Answer 1

Pokemaster and moderators can check IP addresses, so if many upvotes are given to a user, Pokemaster/moderators can to see if it's a duplicate account.
