That would defeat the purpose of rating games. The point is to get the feedback from the players. That way the maker of the game can know if his game is well liked or not. And really, from the title of your forum, how people rate the game is depending on their own opinion. If you don't like it, others may. Also, there are so many games on AG that the staff wouldn't have time for as they could spend their time elsewhere. Just because the game is on Armorgames, it doesn't mean that all the games are made by the staff. Regular players submit the games. Of course, there are games from some of the staff, like John.
