Forum Reviews are an ongoing thing. We will continue to change and adapt the system until we find a formula that works well. We want to do the best we can so that everybody receives a fair amount of reviews and those who are contributing are rewarded or acknowledged in some way.

that basically reinforces my post that the older reviews may as well be locked.

im not trying to be a trouble maker Ryan, you're a great guy and you run a great site here that i enjoy a great deal. but i kinda feel the people who have old style reviews are getting the shaft here.

The truth of it is that we spent a month developing this system that you're not going to find anywhere else. This is the 3rd major facelift we've given our Forum Reviews section in an attempt to make it better for you.

There is no good solution for those who have to wait an entire 3 months, at most. We put a lot of time and energy into this new system, and I don't think it's asking much that you learn some patience and wait just a couple months to use it. We're not going to go out of our way to rework something that we already worked so hard on because a few people cannot stand waiting.

For the fourth time - if your forums have been reviewed within the last 3 months, you must wait.

Sorry I've gotta be so harsh, but some people have shown very little appreciation for what we offer.

i knew after i posted that and my wife kicked me off to get on myspace you would think thats what i was trying to say

the 3 month rule is good and i have no complaint about it at all, it need to be in place your 100% right.

im not asking for a new review because of the new system, that wouldn't make sense because of the 3 month rule and im fine with that.

what im saying is there are a few, not many, but a few old style review threads in the forum review section that are being basically overlooked as people want to do the new style reviews because of the incentive.

I and a few other forum owners came here to get a quality review which is what we expect from a quality forum like this. we made our threads and never got a review. Now you introduce what truly is a innovative way of doing reviews, and its great, and it really prompts members to perform reviews. Well our threads are still being overlooked and it just doesnt seem right to me, thats all.


a few i see, some may not be a big deal to the owners, but some may be patiently waiting as well (like me)

never got a official review
I got one for ya!

never got a official review
Friendly Off Topic Discussion Forum

never got a official review

The only solution I have thought of on this would be to lock down/delete all threads that didn't receive a review and allow the posters to resubmit. I know that is something that you don't really want to do, but I have a feeling that thats going to be the only way to get any attention to the older posts at this point.

The old review team evaporated. It just doesn't exist anymore.
