The contract to post in the epinions forums

Because we got rid of the just in ages ago, I put together a mini contract for the Epinions forum.

It essentially says don't pimp your reviews and don't bash other members.

That forum has been such a problem lately and this place is turning into such a click circle that I figured SOMETHING had to be done.

Re The contract to post in the epinions forums

A click circle is epinions-speak for a place where people trade links. You click my review and give it a VH and I click yours and give it a VH. Reading is optional.

Pippa recently informed us that somebody said we were such an animal. Of course, we are so into that heavy link clicking action that nobody noticed that I deleted the links forum months ago cause nobody was using it

It's hard to moderate ourselves when Justin is involved.

Sitting on the Fence was a really old-timer expression for reading everything that floated across the main just-in page at Epinions.

Re The contract to post in the epinions forums

Now it sounds familiar. Remember when Just Ins would hit the front page of the site??
