wowrep.io - Social ranking for World of Warcraft 

Obviously there cannot be such thing as paid review removal service. This would defeat the purpose.

So far the community has proven against your thesis; as can be seen in https://wowrep.io/leaderboards
Thanks for your input!

I totally get what you mean. This is our main concern in "alpha" phase of the project. I actually mention it in the about's page: https://wowrep.io/about

Concern of review bombing or troll, abusive rating, is something we deeply inspect in the planning phase. Before we start actually inviting users to try it out (by posting the project on Reddit or Forums), we want to make sure we do what we can do stop the trolls.

Because of that, I'm in touch with a friend who is a data scientist who helps me and the early adopters think about ways that can limit the abusive behaviour. Before we officially hit social media, there will be counter-measures implemented that should form a protection layer behind "real" reviews and just trolls.

I definitely understand your concern and it is 100% valid. We want to make it a good piece of software though, where we don't give trolls an easy life, and we try to support our users in a way that will be fair to everyone.

For now in this "alpha" phase the ratings are entered through a web app (https://wowrep.io/). You can rate a player in three aspects: teamplay, skill and communication, on a scale of 1-5.

At some point in the road map there's an idea of having voting in-game, with the help of a companion app (suggested and explained briefly by @Linaori - I do not have expertise in how to do that yet, so that will require some research and guidance), but for now our priority is to decide on a way to minimise the impact of trolls and abusive review bombing, in order to provide actual value to our users first.

I don't know. It will turn out whether the community wanted this, or not. For sure I know I'm tired of situations where I expect someone to be a good player while he turns out to be a shithead
