I fully agree that 3.5 days post age limit (GrumpyCompliance) or less would be much better (and other vote-sellers have already implemented it), as it would give the community better possibilities to find and evaluate posts upvoted by (and all those other shady accounts like
whose votes they are selling). The 5 day limit can be a first step to mitigate the worst cases of abuse (and I heard they want to implement some further measures), but I think this service still deserves some
attention. For post promotion 1 (or maybe 2) days would be sufficient. In many cases votes are bought purely for profit and not to promote the post.
