I know it has been discussed and debated for a while, but I was sort of wondering what exactly was the resolution reached in regards to this nifty feature on this website and how will it be effecting guides in the future?

I also sort of want to use this thread as sort of a brain storm for possible ideas and suggestions that can lead to an all-round better voting system that would benefit all equally and encourage more people to post more guides on MOBAfire. I, for one, am interested in the development of such a feature, for I really Do think it was a good idea to have in, it just needed a bit more refining and more cautious construction. (I'm planning on releasing some guides in the future and really would like to strive to get a recommendation despite my rather crude image on these forums)

Honestly didn't even know about this change coming, going to go and check it out. Sounds interesting, but (if im understanding this) a lack of veterans? Or perhaps it's like suggestions, interested to know more.

Complete removal would be ideal.

Rec system could save mobafire if done right. Removing it just puts more emphasis on score, which is already broken.

Thanks to Anal Samurai for the sig!

They should transfer the title of some inactive vets for other members who are doing a good job and are active

rec system should just be removed, some vets are abusing it *coughcoughyouknowhoyouarecough* and it serves no purpose whatsoever.

I mean, it should be obvious that it needs to get done ASAP because some vets are just ruining the site by reccing guides and stuff that shouldn't be recced, giving Mobafire a bad rep with other sites too.

inb4 *****tom at the vets again...

*ahem*
I really wonder how the "recommended" guides are going to be replaced really.
I'd like to see some promotion thing but, not just by X status in the community.

Which vets and which recs?

I made a post in the vet forums a while ago in which I went over vet recs from A to F or something and those interested voted on whether certain recs should be removed. Due to that thread, Madmack's Ashe guide lost 2-3 recs and a lot of other guides got unrec'd too.

If you could list some rec'd guides that don't deserve to be rec'd, with legitimate reasons, I'm sure the vets will listen to you. Otherwise pointing fingers and accusing people is unwise and looks silly.




Matt hasn't said what the new system will be, or even if he will change it that radically. Recently he gave the vets the power to unrec archived/expired guides, and those of us who care, have done so.
