Any chance you could change the rating system from a click-to-rate system to where the user can still give it a 5 star rating, but also has to enter a brief description? My MUD has gotten 6 ratings so far, and they're either troll ratings or someone genuinely disliked my MUD. A single line for users to enter would solve both of these issues. For trolls, it would show their username. For actual players, they could give constructive criticism or at least why they disliked the MUD.

I don't think entering an explanatory note with a rating is a good idea as I am not sure how best to format or record that information really and I don't want to have to make any major changes. Something I had thought about and has been suggested already is to display the individual ratings per game as well as per user so it is possible to see who has rated what. However given the overall lack of interest I am not planning on devoting any time to the site for the forseeable future so for now the default ratings system will have to suffice.
