Oh please, Brandon, you're about as intellectually challenging as Basil Brush without a hand up his rear. Take a few moments to find out who he is, and come to me when you've got an answer, kay "buddy"?

I think you are completely exaggerating Cecil and need to stop bitching. It does not take that long at all and if you actually played the game it should be even easier to decide.

Why don't you just have a feature that autobans anyone who rates 0 stars.

"I think you are completely exaggerating Cecil and need to stop bitching. It does not take that long at all and if you actually played the game it should be even easier to decide."

its my opinion im not "bitching".

youre method is pretty much what we call a "review". how many people on tdc regularly do a review aside from shroomlock? not many. cause it takes too much time. you get a few here and there but no one really regularly reviews games. its effect would properly rate the games yes, but in my OPINION fewer people would actually fill them out.

Like I said you do not have to write a big long explanation. You just put the stars where you think they should go. The rating system SHOULD be like a "review" anyways.

I know what you mean, but what you are saying is that you would rather have a vague rating where most people end up rating the game one sided anyways just because more people would do it.

I love it how people feel the need to reply after I rated Adams game just to let me know I'M REALLY WRONG.
Also Nick, if your comment was aimed at me I'm rather disappointed. Really I try to be really diplomatic when rating games.

I agree with Cecil's statements. Yami, your system looks nice (surprisingly familiar...) but it'll only take the 0 raters about 4 more seconds to make another 0 rating. Just rate every category at 0 and the overall still becomes 0. Basically, you're making it take more time for the people who want to give an honest rating, and making barely longer for those who just want to troll.

I think the simple thumbs system (Only up, no down) might be the best way to do. But then again, the only ones who have any control over this is Clubby and maybe Flava.
