I think that eliminating upvotes might also help. Keep the sorting mechanism, but dump the visible numbers. That might eliminate some of the obvious pandering to get higher numbers. Kinda like how a lot of forums eliminated post counts back in the day.

Now, a lot of long time community members on binglenet are going to be locked out if they haven't played the latest game, and that sucks, but it's a necessary evil to try to keep the forums usable. Maybe they're causing the problems, but idk. Is there an account age override you could do on this? Like if they've been on the site for 5 years or more, the requirements are waived?
