What to do? I don’t know... there are websites like Yelp that have perhaps figured out online reviews as well as anyone has. Maybe they need a section for game servers, or maybe some enterprising user can start such a website...

Calling it junk but not explaining why? It's easily abused? How exactly? It requires me to login with steam and prohibits duplicates on the same server?
