[poll] about curator pages

Nobody? :D well I guess this counts as an answer too :D

useless garbage and used for self promotion. :3

also used to get free keys and farm cv here

It's shite, well, not like shite shite but mostly useless. Bloat and what mullins said on the spoiler text

I follow a few useful ones:
FPS police, for those who wanna know what cap games have, if any: http://store.steampowered.com/curator/9393382-The-Framerate-Police/
Is it a good port? gives a bit of insight on console games ported to PC, not a comprehensive insight but can be useful: http://store.steampowered.com/curator/6856310-Is-It-A-Good-Port/
and this one http://store.steampowered.com/curator/1770953-Bethesda-Softworks/

I don't know exactly what these curator pages are, but ctrl+f "curator" on main page, gets you to the recommended curators. This is one of them: http://store.steampowered.com/curator/6861215-Hodor-Review/
ok

I don't need someone to review and tell me his thoughts about a game. I can decide all by myself. :)

I personally have no use for them, but that's just me.

I think that the idea itself is quite nice, but its application... is quite lacking, to say the least.
Especially now that it shows only curators from your country, it went from "potentially useful" to "outright useless" for me.

It's a tool that I find handy. It can be useful to use these curators to filter through the garbage that's on Steam, but I don't just buy something because a curator said so.

Since there's no way to hide the trash "joke" curators like the Hodor, Doge or other tired memes more than a few months in, I've already written this off as yet another half-assed and therefore failed attempt at turning the steam store into a community driven efffort.

Well, except for this one: http://store.steampowered.com/curator/9685213-r-ultrawidemasterrace-Group/ (I bought a 21:9 screen recently, so it's pretty helpful for me)

Like most new Steam features, it didn't really bring any good. Anyone can be a curator now, and it even managed to create a few people who pretty much exploit some naive new reviewers: they invite them into a group and force them to make reviews or else their previous work gets downvoted to hell. It just turned into a petty Steam politics over getting your name featured on the main page, which now has been mostly negated by the way Steam displays reviews. (Which in turn destroyed old and useful reviews on some pages that helped a lot of people, but now they are pushed way back to make sure newer ones are featured. Still, altogether, that change seems to be more beneficial right now than harmful.)

I personally never cared for it

That sums it up for me. Curators can be "bought", so I don't find them as trustworthy as most user reviews anyway.

I personally never cared for it

This.

I don't visit the store page in the Steam browser anymore. If I need to see the store I use Firefox with Adblock Plus and the Element Hider addon. I've cut out vast panels of steaming feces with it. Just enough to make it tolerable.
