MODS AND ANDREW PLEASE READ

[DasBaldDog]

I looked at several or the latest product reviews on the main page, and so far (that I've checked) it goes back a ways. Some person is putting intentionally lame and pathetic reviews, usually containing some form of racial, ethnic or personal slur. I personally think you should have to sign in, to review products. Anyone can read but to review you must have an account. Just take a look at these pathetic reviews.

[blake_sw]

How old are the people who are reviewing products? 10, 12? It sure seems like it! After going through 7 barrel reviews, I noticed that the barrels they were talking about were not only "quite", but very "akurat". No, it wasn't "lowd", and the finish was "shinie". This is more amusing than it is annoying, but still, can you do something about it? I wouldn't mind spending an hour of my day going through reviews and correcting spelling mistakes. Please! Just stop the madness!

[DasBaldDog]

Blake, did you READ any of those latest marker reviews? Dude says stuff like "Chinese people have slanted eyes"

[blake_sw]

OMG, that's friggin sick. Last time I read some was 2 days ago. Can you give me the links or the name of the product? THAT'S TOTALLY SICK

[DasBaldDog]

Just check the last 10-12 marker reviews on the main pbreview.com page. He calls himself like M&M and MG and stuff.

Good: this is almost as good as a talon
Bad: talons are horrible but this is even worse
Conclusion: elephants have 5 foot weiners

That's just dribble

Good: this gun is even worse than the x14 and 15 put together
Bad: everything it was so homo i had to smash it with a fu*king hammer
Conclusion: cody has smelly feet

Retarded, comments on homos..him being one he knows by experience


Good: even worse than the x15 and that really sux
Bad: everything that is bad about the x15 is even worse on this piece of crap
Conclusion: belgian people like waffles

Good: nothing

Bad: everything that isn't above also sux
Conclusion: old people smell


I've seen enough. This guy is just a f*g, someone get rid of these reviews asap.

[DasBaldDog]

It HONESTLY sounds like it was written by an 11 year old. Who says "Cody has smelly feet" and isn't 11?

[blake_sw]

Maybe Cody's smelly feet effected the performance..:P regardless, this kid is stupid. But we don't get lamers alot, most of the time it's just:

Good: Everything
Bad: Nothing
Conclusion: Buy this
Score: 10/10

Now that's annoying

Registration is the next thing on the list.. wil be done in August. That way reviews will have to be real.. the ones that aren't will result in banishment of the jerks that posted the false reviews. It is a shame it has to come to this. Also, we are logging the IPs of these people, so when registration comes in, they will never be allowed to post a review.

The best thing you can do is report a bad review, then we(mods) don't have to go through them again.. we can just delete them..

In the meantime, just hangin there.. Andrew is very busy doing upgrades to the site, such as server and forum and site feature update...

[DasBaldDog]

Thanks flash.

[DasBaldDog]

Hey Blake, he's at it again. Calling himself "bob" this time. He's making slanderous remarks about Bob Saggit.

Sounds like the average spelling competence of more than half the Forum users.

We do our best to keep the stupid, worthless and say nothing reviews off the site, but if we actually edited every spelling mistake and grammatical error, there wouldn't be any reviews on the site.

[DasBaldDog]

Well, everytime I make a review, I write the review then I spell/grammar check it. I would say that my review are NEARLY flawless. (even I am not perfect, only Andrew and the mods are)

Notice: This post contains shameless brown-nosing

[blake_sw]

Every week or so there's a few idiots who find pbreview and decide to post worthless reviews. We just have to report it in, I guess that's all we can do for now.
Oh, I found these reviews on a Micromag RT
Good: nothing
Bad: everthing but it looks cool
Conclusion: this gun was made buy a jew
Good: good gun shoots accurate expensive but worth it i reccomend this gun
Bad: nothing
Conclusion: buy this gun

Just plain stupidity. I read Incube's review and reported it in, just as a joke :) . Oh, if you get any bad reviews reported in about the Millenium, that's me. Gotta represent yo.

Now my EXCELLENT review on PMI Premium balls.

Review by: Blake_sw
Date Reviewed: 06/23/01
Good: I used these at a field today. They worked above average. What's good:
-NO BREAKS (in gun)!! I use a 12v revvy, which decreases chances of paintballs breaking.
-Fairly accurate, I had a few curve but I blame the stock barrel.
-I never noticed a mis-shaped ball. The weather was also nice, which helps.

Bad: -THEY DON'T BREAK WHEN THEY SHOULD! I had about 5 bounce off me the whole day. One on my neck, one on my lower back and a few even on my visor. That's 5 times I could of been out. Sure that's good for me, but it's also bad for the guy who shot me.
-Tend to curve with stock barrels. I played some games with a friend's stock barrel, then I put mine back on and noticed a change.
Conclusion: I used a stock spyder barrel and a Bob Long Shot. The balls worked noticeably better with my Long Shot.
A very good field paint for a good price (but wait..I'm a member :P ) I recommend this paint for Rec play. I did work ok while I was playing Sup' Air with some NPPL teams.
Jus make sure of one thing with these balls.....you don't run out.
Rating: 8 / 10

Another option I am going to add is a button near the Submit button that allows you to check your spelling :)

[DasBaldDog]

Interesting. I look forward to your improvements.

[skippy8]

[blake_sw]

AH, my plan has worked!! Spell Check, yes!! Thanks Drew.
