More points for reviews who do many reviews

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

More points for reviews who do many reviews

Post by anwidmer »

I wondered how its fair for those of us who have 11 reviews and 1000 views but since the average deternines the points im held back by each review i do. I feel like there should be points awarded for certain amount of published reviews.
What do you all feel?

The current system is fair. There is a lack of incentive if one no longer needs to participate in the forums, which helps other reviewers to know you and want to go look at your reviews.
Life without a good book is something MrsCatInTheHat cannot imagine.

I think it would be unfair to punish people who have less time to read. Popularity is something you have to work at. Posting comments on other people’s reviews will often result in them posting on yours and you build up a ‘club’ of reciprocal posters. It takes time but your averages will start to go up.
A thesaurus is necessary, essential, indispensable, vital, crucial and fundamental.
