Dynamic vote limit adaptation

[CptPie]

As we discussed several times before we considered a dynamic way to allocate (increase) votes depending on the amount of movies added.

A simple formula would be: max(amountMovies/10,voteSetting) i.e. either we have the Votes configured in the server settings or if the calculated value is higher, this calculated vote count is used.

Ofcourse we would need to check edgecases where a user might have negative votes (since the movie count decreased since he spent all votes but got none back) but that shouldnt be too hard.

Could the negative edgecase be solved with min(0, abs(max(amount / 10, voteSettings)))?

Yeah, something like that could work. Nevertheless i think that negative votes already are cought (i.e. you cant vote if you have <1 votes) but better save then sorry :).

Negative votes are already handled properly. If you have less than zero votes, you need to remove votes from movies until you have a positive number of votes in order to place another vote.
