Seriously some of the questions asked there make me kinda die inside. If new people are coming to this website, I really really don't want that to be the first thing they look at; I think that it'd give mobafire a pretty bad first impression

Anyone else think the same way?

I think that there should be some sort of quality control on the ones that are "featured" on the front page. Some of the questions are fine, that's the point of Q&A, asking questions that may seem silly to other people.

However, questions about MobaFire guides being "scouted" and such are probably not appropriate for the front page.

Hmm, they're showing the popular questions. How else do you suggest picking out the questions to show?

^That's a good start: maybe have questions only shown from the last 3 patches?

At the very least, restrict it to the current season imo. :)

I believe something is wrong with the way it's picking questions - I see it listing very old questions as new, for example. We will take a look at what's wrong there!

We're always open to ideas, but clearly there are a couple bugs with it atm, so we'll get those fixed and then come back and see what other improvements are needed.

Ok just pushed a site patch with a bunch of improvements to the Q&A box. There were issues with the question selection that have been resolved, take a look now. The new questions are properly new, and the popular questions are properly popular :) It's also reduced down to the top 10 newest and top 10 most popular, so that should also help increase the quality of what is shown. Previously it was taking significantly more, which meant some low quality results were coming through.
