    I think a complete wipe wouldn't be a bad idea. It would be a shame to lose all the comments, but I'm not sure that many people read past the first few comments anyway. I don't mind seeing strict rules to hype or rate games. I think the more you do to prevent drive by rating, the more accurate rating you will get.

    I notice that after purging some of the hypes, EQ2 is the one that has really gone down noticeably.  Wonder what a lot of EQ2 fanboys might have been up to....

    If I remember right, EQ2 was two tenths of a point ahead of WoW and now it is one tenth of a point ahead. ::::12::

    Yes, EQ2 and WoW both lost a lot of hype votes from that purge...the two of them made up over 50% of all votes deleted image

    any attempt to purge the site of bull$hit hype is a great thing.......this way we can get donw to the actual hype and really get a feel for what other gamers and excited about and why they are excited.

     

    Good job MMORPG

    It is ridiculous claiming that video games influence children. For instance, if Pac-Man affected kids born in the 80's, we should by now have a bunch of teenagers who run around darkened rooms and eat pills while listening to monotonous music!

    It is easyer to look up the games and know from pulling up info on some gamesas to what you think are going to be great .Its bull crap whaen a select few KIDS cant play nice and vote only once the hype system is for the people who truly love the genere and cant get enough of mmorpgs QUit ($#@!%) whining and play nice children.

    well i think mmorpgs should have more beta slots for people who r willing to pay a few bucks, then maybe people wouldnt be so fricken anxcious.But thats just my 2 cents.

    the BS hypes are kinda needed tho...read alot of the fanboi's hypes and you get a sense of what the gaming community will be like there....so far as i see WoW is gonna be filled with a bunch of foul mouth little kids....

    Probably good that the hype thing got purged, but I can see how it would be good to see which games will have all the idiots. Though I think WoW will be pretty good, regardless of all the 12 year olds who will most definitely be playing. EQII Is looking pretty good too, it seems like it took a big hit from the purge.

    I personally feel that if a 8+ or a 3- is award a detailed reason should be appointed e.g. A box pops up saying care to tell us why under a few catagorys e.g graphics/gameplay/roleplay/lvlng etcetc

    This would then stop haters or huge fans coming on and within seconds giving a max/min vote
