DISCLAIMER:
This is post is completely unbiased; I am okay with other twitch guides getting more/close to as much attention as my guide right now

No offense to Throatslasher, but this whole idea seems a little worrysome. It seems as though we are replacing (or balancing) much of MOBAfire's sheep voters, with a new kind of hive-mind voter. I mean, if 99% of the people in the Broken guide system group want to downvote a guide because it truly is horrendous, then by all means it's legitimate.

What i'm worried will happen, though, is that This system could very well devolve into a group that downvotes a guide because one person says so.

Now one could say that this new system could balance out the extra upvotes sheepvoters give. However, this can be viewed as supporting my point. While someone could downvote the guide for whatever reason they want, it just doesn't seem right for a group of people to downvote a guide on account of it being at the wrong percentage, rather than whether they actually likes the guide or not.
If I helped you out, be sure to throw me a +Rep!

afaik most active people on Mobafire aren't horrendous sheep voters, theoretically this would work.

As well people should promote guides they've found which were actually "good" or at least ones they think are...If this was suggested as an additional "club" function forgive me for missing it.

(Does the club exist in another thread?)
i
To utopus: hopefully, people will have a head and read the whats and why's for downvoting/upvoting. We're claiming to want to fight a sheep system, so if people don't agree with a vote they need the balls not to vote.
Thank you Tsuki for the sig!

Ok that's about enough of that.

I let the thread go for a while since I thought people would realize after I posted the rules that this would not be allowed. It's against the rules to try to fix voting and we're not going to tolerate threads / blogs with the purpose of recruiting people to vote.

As always you are allowed to discuss which guides and their quality in threads and blogs, but having a thread or blog with the purpose of fixing voting will not be tolerated.

Discussion of guides is encouraged and appreciated. By all means talk with your friends about guides that you think should be up/downvoted. However, your idea is not about discussion, it's about trying to bypass the voting system and against the spirit of the site.
Thanks to GrandMasterD for my sig!
