Title: Them Detailed Reviews.
Post by: SnowBunny on Aug 27, 2011, 11:11 AM
Just an opinion of mine.. Since short reviews are untouchable by anyone else other than server owners, why are reviews on the forums spammable by other players? I mean.. A review is a review and posting something else on a person's written review is kinda rude.

For example given someone writes a positive review on a server. Some random guy comes out and denies a few facts.. It's annoying don't you think?

Or if a person writes a negative review and some people flames him because of his own opinion..

It is rude, seriously. I'm just stating a few facts that have been on the interwebs for so long.. Then again.. I can never understand why crap like this happens..  :-[

A short review have limited points/details for further discussion while longer review people can explain the server in a detailed approach.  By having the longer review in a forum it is also a way to encourage discussion of that server.  In general, nobody have to agree with any review.  It is the experience and point of view of the reviewer only. 

I don't think it rude for people to reply or disagree, it is just a sharing of mind, view and opinion.  It should be a healthy discussion that could bring up different matters regarding the server.

Ahh.. You read my mind! That's the point.. Sometimes a disagreement turns into a flame war which results with the thread being closed/moved/etc etc.. It's quite annoying to watch a review turn into a flame war at times.. Meh~ ._.

Hmm, a review shouldn't get deleted when it gets out of hand, at worse it should just be locked, and perhaps any flaming replies be removed. Does it really gets that bad, to the point of deleting the whole thread?

Actually.. I was thinking of something like..

*review*

*content*

*end*

-Locked-

Less messy and all from a point of the reviewer.. :P

We'd get a lot of spam from server owners wanting to defend themselves from slander - they'd make new topics and flood the forum with RE: CRAPPY REVIEW LOLZ

Surely.
