well I think they already know they can't be liked by every single player on the game and even if the poll was only voted for 100% of them are bad they would just ignore it (or think they're funny by downvoting themselves)
also i totally agree with you about that, to me the game has lost what made it special back in the days (except being the only multiplayer pokemon game that does not suck) and i think this is what you should have said from the beginning instead of trying to make them look bad
