How is "I have a feeling game X is undertracked/overtracked" accepted?

[Oyvoyvoyv]

This is something that is happening more and more on VGChartz. Threads about people having a "hunch" that a game is incorrectly tracked. The proof is generally bullocks, and is generally something ala "it was sold out", or "there were more copies of it than of SMG in stores".

Perhaps worse, is that this is starting to get accepted as truth. The general feeling on the Nintendo board on VGChartz, is now that CoD:WaW is undertracked, despite having only anedoctal proof of this (I use Nintendo as it is the one I know that most about, not because it is especial for the Nintendo forum).

I apologize if this seems like a rant, but it is simply ridiculous, and I really think this trend should be stopped.
