Oh shit, I fall under all three! :P (Actually haven't rated the game, most likely giving it a 9.2).  

Well I called the act of giving something 0-3/10 when they haven't played it trollish. Hopefully that doesn't make me in that much trouble. Also OoT > MM...../me runs. 


In my opinion there's a few problems with just banning the low scorers.

1. You don't know for real who does and doesn't own whatever game they rated down. You don't know if they do really dislike the game.

2. If you're doing it for one game, you'd have to do it for every other game.

3. If you do it for the random people giving a game 0-3, then you should look into the people giving 10's to certain companies games over and over again too.


I assume that is a problem, but honestly Carl, if it starts spiking for some games such as this, you should take action. The biggest problem for Metacritic User Review Wars is that no one took action, and it just caught on fire. If you don't deal with such issues now, it can really catch on fire. I know this is extreme case, but no one wants a repeat of the Fable 2 Vs LBP war.  Which later effected other titles like Resistance 2 and gears of war 2.
