I feel what @YoungGoldie is saying with the scoring. You say try not to look at it from a school perspective buuut Im sure 90% of us have at least made it to the 10th grade lol we may be able to not look at it like that but most of the board will. Just a thought.
My own opinion is trolling will be inevitable and for this to work right, I think it should be 0 tolerance. You have some people that hate certain rappers for whatever reason(probably not even heard the album at hand) and could possibly ruin a rating. How do we take that into factor or we just have to deal with it?
Word I did find the name a bit corny but it was just a play on metacritic name. I'm cool with AllHipHop Review Board. Props Goldie. LOL @ the bolded. You sure that many? I mean, the explanations would be in the OP accommodated by colors. *shrug*
As far as potential trolling, I did think about that and honestly... professional reviews show bias too and there isn't much of a way to stop that. One reason for the word limits is to make sure people aren't throwing out bs ratings without actually listening to whatever they're scoring. It's impossible to write 150 words about an album you haven't heard, you know? I figure that if someone takes the time to type up a review to back up a score ... as long as it isn't 150 characters of some ridiculous and irrelevant bullshit I say fuck it. The stans will balance out the haters. Honest choughts?
