    Wow. Ninja, ninja, ninja, ninja, ninja, ninja, ninja...

    Almost two out of three tracks in the feeds have 'ninja' in the title now.

    Just because you have to do a forward flip and land the bike between the fender and wheel to do a gravity/physics defying 240deg rotation around a pole, doesn't mean the track is good. Those tricks are now as old and over done as a loop where part of it breaks away as you're going around it.

    Yup, and why does everyone put "ninja" in the names of these tracks? Can you imagine if everyone put "medium" in their track names just because it's a medium track. It sounds lame. People should at least give their tracks proper names.

    Not to mention putting 'ninja' in the title doesn't automatically make it a ninja track... nor does it mean everyone HAS to give it 4-5 stars.

    I purposefully avoid any track with the word "ninja" in the title, even if it has a solid rating.

    I have seen a lot of members from this forum in the top of the leaderboards. I am wondering if they just play it to rate it one star or do they actually enjoy them, since it seems unanimous on the forms that those "ninja" tracks suck. Not trying to hate on anyone. Also there is one creator who shall not be mentioned who seems to upload a "ninja" track every two to three days, always in the highest rated and is really frustrating knowing all the good tracks being buried by this garbage.

    I like to rate them 1*. Impossible to down-rate them all though. And a lot are too annoying to bother with.

    I don't have the patience to learn these stupid gimmicks. So I never bother completing them.

    Is it possible to add search filters that avoid certain words in the titles of tracks?

    That's the thing. A lot of the tracks still need the stupid gimmick skill sets of beating them. So the average joe will never beat the track. That means it's mostly the pro/elite/upper level players who are rating these tracks to the point where they all have 4+ star ratings. Are they rating them highly just because they feel cool that they can pass them?

    This is so ridiculously wrong.

    I know you like to blame the "elite" for everything, but it is not their fault. Everyone on this forum hates these tracks as well.

    Those gimmicks are not hard to do once you know how to do them. That means the average joe CAN beat the average pirate track. It is the average player that is up-rating these tracks because they feel cool after beating a track with the description: "teh hardest trakk evar made lolol, only 4 proz, watch replayzz, r u ninga enuff?!"
