Looks like Valve is introducing a new review system to filter out "unhelpful" reviews (www.eurogamer.net)

Surprised steam would do something like this. Must of snuck it past Lord GabeN

What do you mean to imply?

A system to filter out copy-pasted meme reviews seems useful.

Which is why I said it's surprising that it's been implemented.

This is the kind of issue Steam either buries its head in the sand over (which it kinda have) or just pushing into the customers (which it also kinda has)

It would also likely affect GabeN bottom line so there's that too.
