After the embarrassing incident with PewDiePie's ROBLOX lets play, I think its pretty clear to everyone here, that ROBLOX's front page algorithms are absolute garbage.
I'm getting tired of low-effort garbage becoming popular, because users are abusing popular trends. It sickens me, and it makes ROBLOX look awful.
Some examples of garbage that is currently present in the Top 25 popular games: https://www.roblox.com/games/478396631/DANTDM-LUCKY-BLOCKS-Hat-Warfare-Tycoon https://www.roblox.com/games/372328925/ROBLOX-Pokemon-GO-PewDiePie-played https://www.roblox.com/games/114890690/Life-in-Paradise https://www.roblox.com/games/382763658/Slide-Down-999-999-999-Miles-To-The-Winners https://www.roblox.com/games/120077860/Adopt-and-Protect-a-Baby
ROBLOX, its time to drop the Popular category. I have a category proposal that would replace it, and I'd like to hear what everyone here thinks about it.
The new category will be called "Trending" It will be a version of the Popular category, personally tailored for people who are your age.
How it works: Games are sorted for you based on a game's "score" in my algorithm. The higher the game's score, the higher in the list it will appear.
How the score is calculated:
L = # of players who have liked this game in the past day, who are close to your age D = # of players who have disliked this game in the last 24 hours, who are close to your age Score = NumberOfPlayersInGame*(L/(L+D))
In case you don't understand math (O_o) heres a more english explanation of it. This algorithm calculates the score by multiplying the number of players in the game, by the likes to dislikes ratio from the last 24 hours, whose likes and dislikes have come from people with a similar age to you.
What do you guys think?

No, instead they'll just get annoyed by it and delete the original thread to make sure people can't copy it anymore.

Yes, but it's more of a joke-post in reply to the people that are actually doing it. Sadly, people will actually take it seriously instead.
