A lot of people go on the site sporadically, and that post you made probably got ignored or missed by a lot of these kinds of people. It's a bummer, but change happens slowly.
If you don not know SF you can end up with some trash guide doe TBF
And even a good god guide on SF takes more effort reading and understanding than a YT vid or watching a pro streamer.
But it is really sad that ppl hate SF, because it is great IMO
As long as you have some common sense...
Thing is, depending on the streamer (or if it's just streaming a game or educating at the same time like EmilZy or DM), they're going to understand certain engagements, but not necessarily how they're building and why they're choosing specific items in specific matches.
That's where it's nice to get the high quality guides where explanations are given...but even then, if you don't know, someone might have what sounds like a nice explanation but they don't really know what they're talking about, so...lol.
This is just really sad to see, honestly. This is clear example that people just bandwagon. Don't even bother to take a look or anything, or give it a slight chance. Just "Oh, this guy said it's bad, so it's gotta be." Really unfortunate, makes you wonder if people are as advanced or smart as some make themselves out to be...

The problem today is essentially with "tl;dr"
The more knowledge you have, the more you can improve yourself. There's nothing wrong with watching YT videos AND reading guides on SF. People are just too impatient these days.
@Bran, I'm gonna create a reddit account and back you up during posts like these.
What's so great about SmiteReddit or SmiteGuru anyways? This site is way better, and the admins here actually care about you.

It's just that the main problem with SF is that the good guides are sometimes outshined by the bad ones. We don't need to remove the bad ones because good guides are always coming (as we saw with the new generation), we just need to highlight the good ones.

But, how do we go about making sure the good ones get highlighted, and start to outshine the bad ones?
