So A. This isn't about finding trolls, Check User rights would do nothing in this situation. This is about users who have been in the community a while but don't have enough edeits to vote. Yeah I know that, but I'm saying we go ahead and vote yes for letting all users vote except trolls, and we could use the CUs for determining the differences between the users and trolls. Maybe I just don't know the exact job of a CheckUser. Check Users check IP addresses. And that isn't magically going to tell them if someone is a troll or not, it would only help if an account turned out to be a dupe of someone here/someone who used to be here. So just letting everyone vote is a bad idea.
