Should all guides be forced to STALE on the S3 roll-out?

Lugi: We did the "change masteries pl0x!" thing, but not setting every guide to Stale, I believe. We also didn't do the item suggestion, where guides with non-existent items are force archived.

I admit it's a great idea, I am just a bit skeptical. Giving about a week for players to contemplate would be "good" period a time for them to test, imo.

Raine: Like I said, guides don't decay from STALE to EXPIRED over night. It takes weeks. So even if you are really lazy/take 3 weeks to change your masteries due to "learning", your guide will still only remain on Stale.

I know they don't decay overnight, but Stale is a little pushing it, imo. Fresh would be a good alternative to Stale because it's a little hint to the authors saying, "Hey, update your guide because it's S3 now." If they don't comply, simple downgrade it to Stale. If I could revote on the Poll, I would.

Stale isn't really pushing it, it still gives authors more than two weeks to update their guide before it expires. If a top guide remains Fresh for a month+ with S2 masteries, it'll just make MobaFire look bad.

Like an earlier comment said earlier, allowing MobaFire guides to provide misinformation is sheer stupidity and reflects badly on MobaFire's reputation.

Sounds good to me. We don't list guides that don't have mastery pages, so why should guides without updated masteries be allowed to stay Ideal?

At the very least the author could update the cheatsheet(s) with a new setup for season 3, even if they don't overhaul everything in the guide right away.
Thanks to The_Nameless_Bard for the sig!

I don't see anything about DFG getting removed.

Link?

I totally agree. I already archived my guide, and it will probably take a while until i republish it.

Many thanks to MissMaw, LaCorpse, Xiron, Arcana3 and Joxuu for making me sigs!

Well, I'm not asking everyone to archive their guides. Just suggesting that with the S3 roll-out, all guides should be placed at Stale and remain at Stale unless the author at least changes the masteries.
