Don't remove your guides just because of idiots like that, you are taking away help for a lot of people...trust me...
also, if we make a post requirement to voting, people will:
1. spam forums MUCH more to meet it
2. A lot of people JUST join to +1 a guide, happens to everyone, more often than people join just to troll a guide...
a lot of those very nice votes would be lost.
just ignore the trolls, don't feed them, by removing your guide you fed the troll and made him happier.
also, I don't think I've seen your Karth guide yet, I'll take a look at it and give criticism, also try putting your guides up for review in a review thread (jhoi, Nighthawk), they give great reviews, and a lot of guides that get reviewed and the author fixes end up getting rec'd.

Ok. Looked through it, not gonna read it all:
1. Deathcap too late.
2. Walls of text, use images and coding.
3. No descriptions of anything except gameplay really...
check out a lot of top rated and recommended guides like mine and jhoi's; people like descriptions of why you take what runes, spells, items, not just
"take flash and ghost"
"take rylai's"
why...?

Jeff, I didn't mean to be rude in my comment, and I hope I wasn't the straw that broke the camel's back, per se.
Hang around and wait for the Automatic Archival system. A lot of guides will be archived in one fell swoop, and newer guides will have the chance to rise to the top as guides that have over 1000 upvotes are no longer there to prevent better guides becoming number one.
Also Wrath: Yeah =.= I raged pretty hard and called them ****heads. Yesterday I took off and spent an hour+ by myself in the park because they pissed me off so much =.=

I understand that people join to +1. I agree that's a great thing when someone goes out of their way to do it. But the meat of the issue is that for me, I've just given up on builds for now. I'm just that particular about it. If I take my guides down for now, then it doesn't worry me. I don't have to look everyday to see if I got a vote or not. I'd just rather not think about it for now, it solves my issue and I can un-archive a build when I feel ready to. Does that make sense?
You're fine jhoi. That wasn't the thing that brought me to this. Saw your comment before my Corki down vote from sirspankalot. My Tryn build not the guide was the main focus of my reasoning as to why it deserved up-votes. And that statement was even more or less in jest XD. It's not a big deal there are better Tryn guides and I've supported Apotheosis' Tryn guide since I started posting on mobafire. I'm happy to continue to support it. I had a short time where my jungle tryn guide was unique. Now jungling with Tryn is so popular and has changed a bit. My guide just kinda falls behind.
as I said though, it still helps people, you shouldn't just remove it over a vote! D:
But if you just don't wanna worry about the guide for now, I understand, although you can just have it up but not check the score/comments if you really want...
@jhoi
what made you angry at them? I assume it wasn't just something about the game to get you that upset...

You need to log in before commenting.
The topic of reworking the voting system has come up TONS of times, but this is the best system, there is nothing to make it better...we can't just stop people from voting.
If you make a really great guide, show me, I'll rec it, and it will most likely soar to the top.
I'm referring to the ability for people with fewer than 100 posts to comment and or vote (at least to my knowledge they can). There's no base requirement for people so anyone can vote at any time. If people want to dedicate time to Moba then they will push 100 posts rather quickly. The system is fine I agree it's most likely the best solution of whatever limited options are available. I'm just deciding to forgo the deal entirely and stop building for now. My Karthus guide is one that I've put a lot of effort into, but it would have been recommended by now had it had any merit...It's been up for nearly a year. It's possible it could use some more refinement, but I doubt it's worth a recommend.
Overall I'm just not in the best of moods today, so I'm really just venting. The primary cause of this venting is a new kid on the "mobafire block". SirSpankAlot. I down voted his guide because of its overall lack of experienced information. Or that is what I read, there was no real substance, the presentation was sloppy, among other things (like the fact that it was a Skarner build 2-3 days after the champs release) I mentioned the premature nature of the guide and the fact it did not deserve up-votes simply based on the fact that this guy probably had less than 20-40 games played with Skarner. Then he revenge votes my Corki build under the pretense of "not trolling". So I'm here now removing my guides so I don't have to suffer the insults of petulant children.
