:/ That Karma guide does suck and I'm actually not sure why it's on the top.
Nevertheless it's quite rude to openly flame a site for one guide.
A more polite way to phrase it would cause less hate and get some actual results rather than endless flaming.

The guide mods on solomid are serious business. The integrity of featured/approved is a big deal.
The way someone proves they are who they SAY they are, is they PM mods on SM, they get on league and add and verify it's them, and then they review the guide. All guide mods are SEASONED players and can spot ******** from a mile away. Also, the community is very discerning. My malzahar guide got picked to shreds in the comment section, and I amended some mistakes, and explained my reasonings when I felt i was right.
tl;dr
get on league, add each other, verify
read the guide, if they're not who they say they are, they probably wrote an inferior guide.

Hi. I used to be a SoloMid guide moderator before I went inactive. I don't think Mobafire's scout point system is very good, but the system you proposed where plats would revamp the guide system on Mobafire would, hilariously enough, be more sophisticated than SoloMid's system.
Featured Guides: Guides written by high ELO people. They get featured for that reason. Many featured guides aren't as in-depth as approved guides.
Approved Guides: Community member written guides. Guide moderators check over guides for approval through their moderator panel, and approve/deny, and leave feedback/nitpicks if they think a guide has potential for approval status. The moderators are not "seasoned players", they are community members who volunteer. The only requirement is that they already have an approved guide as a way to prove they're aware of the standards.
hi embracing. yes i play ff14 now.
that karma guide is actually the thing i read that made me want to buy karma D: i dont really follow the build in it but the information it had about how to play karma helped me instead of me just trying her and not knowing anything about her. there are people that play karma and dont know her W damages people or changes the movement speed of people that go through it but the guide taught me that even if i woulda learned it after playing a few matches
honestly the BUILDS may be **** but the information and explanation of the champions that they give is good to newer players learning the champions which is why when im using a champion or thinking about buying a champion i look here before solomid
also im a casual player that likes playing this game for fun (even though certain matches make me want to rip my hair out) and i have no intention of becoming plat or gold or having a good elo or anything like that which is why mobafire appealed to me much more than solomid

Thing is, if a newbie (new person, not to be confused with noob) reads a guide that is 30 % spot on and 70% fubar, what they learn will be 7/10 **** even if they read some good. Isn't it better to have guides with 80%+ useful information?
And it is freaking easy to label a guide if it is new players friendly or demands good skills to start with.

I am against asking for rep, only rep me if you think I contributed well or said something wise.

honestly youd think if someone followed a "****" guide and by following that guide played very "****ty" they would learn from this or in most cases get yelled at in game for what theyre building and sooner or later be told by a more experienced player about why what theyre building is wrong and what to build instead
this probably isnt going to fix the whole "**** guides are on top" thing but its probably whats happening when people follow the **** guides
and me being new to this game myself can say that the "high elo pro guides" confused the hell out of me and i honestly dont want to see this site turn into that D: no joke i didnt even learn the importance of killing the dragon until i read it from a guide on here about how important it is to winning which is something i never would have learned from reading the "high pro elo guides" on solomid
honestly id prefer a not as pro guide that offered good information than a "pro" build that is confusing to many new players
but thats just new to LoL player DillButt's opinion
