       I believe that the number of bad reviews and comments on
       Gamestar Mechanic are rising. Please help raise awareness! Make
       sure to check out my game "Concerning Bad Reviews" to know all
       about it.

       Also, there are many things to be said concerning bad comments
       and reviews. I think to get this subject going I'll just ask a
       simple question. What exactly defines a bad comment/review?

       I think the following rules of etiquette are reasonable:
       -No reviews or comments should personally insult designers, and
       none should use completely derogatory language (i.e. "you're a
       bad designer" or "your games suck.")
       -Reviews should have some explanation, particularly for bad
       reviews.
       -If the game isn't meant for playing, but is instead an
       announcement of some sort, it really shouldn't be reviewed
       except for the content inside.

       Yes I agree! I keep getting all these 1 star reviews and
       innapropriate comments! So annoying! I was on top rated and then
       those people insult me and get me off that section!! :(

       Top-rated is not a manual process. Games are automatically
       featured in top-rated when they hit a certain amount of stars
       and gears. It's a simple bot function. Gamestar Mechanic doesn't
       put or take things down there. So, the people who leave bad
       comments and reviews have nothing to do with your games leaving
       top-rated. The games in top-rated probably automatically go away
       after a certain amount of time because of a bot function (and
       clutter). If not that, they get buried behind millions of other
       games.
       Top-rated is essentially overrated.
       Since top-rated is a bot function, it is very easy to get in
       top-rated, and even easier to get your games buried by a bunch
       of games that don't deserve to be in top-rated. All mechanics
       have to do to get in top-rated is give their own games a 5-5.
       So, top-rated has lost its value completely.

       Top Rated = 10 5 star reviews before any under 5 reviews,
       reviews on a game expire in the top rated thingy after a while
       (a day I think) so Top Rated can be influenced, but it doesn't
       mean nothing.
