N4G is not a forum for 'free speech'.
The fact that you and I and others are empowered to approve or disapprove stories emphasizes that there IS a want, by N4G, to have some controls on content so that it isn't flooded with SPAM and HIT TROLLS.
VG Chartz has done PLENTY over the last year to prove that it is a complete waste of bandwidth to click thru and as a MOD you should consider filtering this kind of crap post. The fact that 12 of your peers indicated fake/spam/lame BEFORE you approved it is worrisome imo.
No one is denying VGC an existence or their right to free speech...but N4G doesn't have to provide a free advertising platform either.
