I agree.

I wouldn't say I'm trying to stop people from saying what they think, I'd say I'm giving suggestions on how to reduce bogus and inappropriate ratings that negatively impact the rating system. There may already be some of this being taken care of with the rating 'weight' system, but how effective this is at removing bogus ratings (if someone rates a lot, do they get a lot of weight? posting a lot of ratings doesn't make you an honest rater) is unknown to me.
I'd like to add to my original post that I think PvP movies can be difficult to rate. Creativity on PvP movies is one example, although they can be creative depending on the type of PvP movie they are, see the movie
Unknown III for an example of a creative PvP movie. I usually rate a "3" for "average creativity" on creativity if it's just fighting, since the average PvP movie has little more than fighting. I think the idea (which is on the front page poll) of replacing "Content" with "Skill" is a good idea, but remember some people think that putting only your best fights on your movie means you have no skill. According to this, if you put in your best fights, you suck, but if your movie has your past nine PvP fights, it's going to be boring.
