jdeitch 32 Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I have been, and will continue to be, an active member and contributor on several internet forums/sites. Most of these forums, have a review section where topics may be posted for item reviews. I feel this type of information is VERY valuable and would be highly desirable to the members. Not to mention helping to reduce repetitive posts regarding product information. Typically site moderators review and approve product reviews before they are posted for content and accuracy. Although it takes quite a bit of time to do a through review including pics, I would be willing to share my experiences with the forum. Some sites even offer compensation for product reviews. (i.e. tee shrits, hats, etc.) (AGP mags... wink wink) So... What do ya think?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hallboss 1 Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 I agree with you it would be a great idea, however one of the sites I belonged to had to ban that function. People were using it to get free crap and then not reviewing it making a shitstorm for the mods. As long as people are responsible with their actions, it does create a huge database and limits the "do any of you guys use...." questions.

Good idea Jeffd Darin As I had stated in my original post "Typically site moderators review and approve product reviews before they are posted for content and accuracy." The Mods and Admins could have total control. We'll see if anyone here (In charge) at this forum responds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jdeitch 32 Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 No takers here? No one in charge reading this forum/topic? Not even a no answer? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kresk 10,063 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 No takers here? No one in charge reading this forum/topic? Not even a no answer? In my opinion, at face value it certainly sounds like a good idea, but as previously inferred it does lend itself to many complexities, politics, and potential complications. The paucity of responses hopefully bespeaks the recognition of these possible problems. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
