RE: Utopian should remove votes on invalid contributions
Your contribution cannot be approved because it does not follow the Utopian Rules. This post does not bring a new feature/enhancement for the project.
The votes can only be removed manually when it is found out that the mistake was made, and the only person who can do that is elear. Your post is therefore aimed towards him and not the Utopian in general. And even in that case, it has been decided that removing votes is not a likeable option since it drains more VP.
You should suggest this in the next Utopian biweekly or the following Poll.
You can contact us on Discord.

A significant portion of Utopian's adminstrative access is upto @elear and there is no current rule about what to do about mistakenly voted posts. And the suggestion is about how Utopian bot behaves and its actions are releated to the whole Utopian project. Who controls it is not perticularly relevant.
The feature this contribution is suggesting is about how utopian manages its mistakes and therefore I would consider that an enhancement to the project not a specific request to how @elear behaves.
I told you the way you present it is not a suggestion meeting the rules. This matter is for discussion during the BIWEEKLY where you can propose new changes in votes policy. And since elear is the only one who can vote on behalf of Utopian, this will affect his behaviour.
Vote removal is nothing new, it just has not been done.
You may be wrong with the statement about VP drainage when removing a vote but it doesn't change my decision.
Removing votes drain VP?
Yes, they are. They are actually valid vote operations with a zero weight.
Just re-checked it seems it doesn't drain VP if the weight is 0.
