I dunno, I feel as if mobafire builds suddenly died out. like, not all of them, but all the old ones that i used to love and read are "expired", and renewed with "new" guides that have maybe 4-5 votes and made it in the top 10.

Not that theres anything wrong with that, but im just sayin.

Like for example, jhoi is obviously updating her builds, but trophy, and like, heat and those guys, they just kinda died off :(

Or maybe im not paying close enough attention.....

oh well, just wanted to shout that out, thats all :P
Thx to Jhoi, nyoike, xiao, Jeffy40Hands, AlexPT, Wafflewarrior, Wrath and myself for the sigs <33333

Well, expired guides don't deserve to be displayed, and guides that say "Ideal" but aren't, really need to be replaced. If a writer chooses to stay on the site, then that's their prerogative. Some people just make a guide, stay a bit, and then leave. There's nothing we can do about that :/

The expired system is in place to sort of, weed out dated ineffective guides, and force guide makers to stay here updating their guides.

Will it work?

I don't know.

*Shrug.

I think it will cut the current amount of guides that show up in searches by 50% - 80% though lol.

Yeah, would've been nice if they kept updating, but if they quit updating guides, they probably quit LoL.

As for me, I don't know if I'm fairly new or a veteran member yet.
NOT VETERAN VETERAN.
You get my drift.

Would you rather be reading old guides using Innervating Locket and Zhonya's Ring?

If you really love a guide too much to let it go, just favorite it. For the general population, it's better to have newer, updated guides readily available.
Thanks to Jovy for the sig!

I wasn't trying to. I'm speaking from experience; I've seen some "good" older guides that were simply too outdated to be relevant anymore. I saw a once-popular Veigar guide use a Zhonya's Ring. What does that mean? Get a Rabadon's Deathcap instead? Or Zhonya's Hourglass? Not to mention all the buffs, nerfs, changes and new champions that have come out since that time. AND the meta is constantly evolving.

I love the new "freshness" feature. I think it belongs on the site and will help sort out some of the older or useless guides so that newer ones can occupy a more prominent position.

Also, frowning 3 times in one post is not allowed. ;)

If your point was to express your disappointment that such good guide-makers didn't continue their work, well....
I agree.

But you can always check out the newer authors and maybe you'll find a build or guide that's even better than the older one was! :D
Thanks to Minho for the sig!
