What I mean is, the site is set up for the sole purpose of getting money from ad views. Hence the resetting every month. There's a big difference between "I want to have a website that ranks comics" and "I can make money with almost no effort on my part".

There's "sane" methods for counting lifetime votes. Like, for instance, all the votes over a lifetime, with one vote per IP. That's hardly a difficult thing to do. You could even allow for the creation of accounts for users so they can take votes away from comics they feel have gone downhill. I feel a comic that has been around for five years should definitely have a higher ranking than one that just got 100 votes in one month.


The point is, resetting the rankings every month means most of the votes are going to those obnoxious comics that plaster their front page with vote buttons or worse, force you to vote before viewing the comic. This is simply a money making site, nothing else.
