#Feature Request: Bot score and reviews

Good afternoon everyone. I have been thinking for a while how to solve a simple problem:

  • There are great bots in the top 100, it is beyond doubt (I know the creators and their work) BUT I have seen many bots in the top 500 that should be in the top 100 and bots in the top 100 that should not be there.

I know that time and interest puts bots in a more deserved place, but it is tied to trends and those trends come and go: sometimes neither the bots nor the creators get fair recognition for their accomplishments unless they keep spamming their creations over and over again. I think this would be improved if there was a system for giving a score and critique / review to the bots, with the goal of:

  • Recognize quality over trends. A bot may not be in the top 100, but at least people can point out that it is good, encouraging others to try it.
  • Detect fraud / bad practices; we can "flag" bots that are likely to have lower quality than expected in the rank they are in.
  • Incentivize creators to keep improving their creations. We can support encouraging improvements and provide suggestions from the user's perspective. Scoring / review should be allowed to change, allowing the creator to improve without being punished in the process.

What do you think?

This is great idea! Especially for detecting fraud. People won't buy badges with high points but low score.
Also it will give creators motivation to revise their old bots.

Great idea! But who has the right to rate the bots? All users? Due to the possibility of interaction being artificially inflated, I also have doubts about whether the bot quality score will be inflated.

#

Anyways, bot score and review function are both good suggestions
