instead of the rule of 10 submissions gets you the right to vote, change it a bit to a stricter level.
It's really not that hard to get the voting status, and some people abuse this, so once they got 10 images submitted (good or bad), they stop submitting and start voting for their friends. They can do so forever and ever.
- So, maybe a member should have an additional requirement to submit a certain amount of entries within a certain amount of time to keep his voting ability. (eg 5 images within last 3 months).
Offcourse this can affect longtime members who are well respected here due to their activity in the past but don't enter anymore these days. So you might want to add some 'loosening' rules too (eg advantage members do not get affected by this or in in less severe way, or members with atleast 200 submissions are not affected by this rule either)
