Question Quality Gaming Reviews

Does anyone remember the good ol' days. You know . . . the days when reviews were actually worth reading. I know I remember those reviews.

I remember reading reviews that easily bypassed the 1000 words mark, and were still trying to get their thoughts on the site. Now I can visit the "Just In" section, and find a gaming review only to see that it meets the 100 word minimum, and that is it.

And if you review them with a "NH" or a "SH" they come bust up on your site, and "NH" or "SH" you. I don't believe I write bad reviews, nor do I think that the reviews deserve at any time a "SH" or a "NH", but that is up to you, the reader, to determine.

I want to know what you, the readers think, of this topic.


James (vandalz)

There are still a few exceptions out there:

awoolcott
xeno3998
guile176
shampoo-girl
kenshin-guy
david.c
alkaiser
32_footsteps
Reaver2019
billservo
KingJFS
photics
chris_billings
solid_snake
horhay
sephiroth2000
mickp
trouto

And I know I'm forgetting a few. But for every quality review there is, there are 10 that are indescribably bad. I find myself giving out more SHs every day, but at least I'm becoming a fairer rater, I think.

Don't worry about revenge raters, one NH wont hurt 50 VH's. Just keep writing and rating fairly, that's all you can really do.
