ex·am·ple/igˈzampəl/

Noun:
A thing characteristic of its kind or illustrating a general rule.

Verb:
Be illustrated or exemplified.

Synonyms:
instance - sample - model - exemplar - pattern - paradigm

It was a poor example. Additionally you added "This is probably the best Kayle Guide on Mobafire" which makes your example an "opinion".

Anywhoo, Cuddowls I applaud your efforts, keep at it and don't get distraught. People like to give you **** because you're the new guy on the block, eventually though you'll get your **** together and people will start listening and responding with things that don't start with "You're an idiot". However that won't start happening until you take some time to listen too.

Yes I know that was rather off topic, but it's the message I gotta keep drilling into you until you get it.

in 3 pages, about 3 - 4 posts are about the actual topic

I agree though, I think the featured guides need more exposure somehow and should probably be reviewed, cause there's quite some questionable guides in there right now.

Yeah half of the guides featured are awful garbage. (Sorry if I offend any author of those guides here but thats my opinion).

I took a gander at the top featured (it's an Irelia guide). Just on masteries* alone I was skeptical as to how it got there...I mean...Yeah IDK that isn't how I win with Irelia....But apparently it got 90% (on like ~70 votes or so)

Khazem not even that
Moba needs to get someone who knows what the **** they're doing and MAKE a guide then have then have that guide featured.

The guide might have 0 views thats not the objective of it. It would be made by request and would be featured BECAUSE its good not because of votes or views

That's not the point. Matt wants MOBAfire to be a community where everybody is equal and is not run by an elitist system where only pro players or high rating players can write guides, unlike Solomid.

Rather imitating Solomid and their system, just keep it the same way. The only problem is the stale/expired guides that are in the featured system. Another problem that is less as major, but still visible is that there is too much emphasis on aesthetics over detail and information - some of the featured guides have bad/outdated/non-viable builds/masteries/guide in general but look fantastic or are written by notable forum members. If anything, it hints at a very small elitist system (very small, much better than most forums) as well as the idea of sacrificing quality for aesthetics.
