Suggestions to Newbies and Other LR Members on Reviews

"Recently I received a review from an individual awith this and only this comment:

"better insight on what the site is mostly gear to when it comes to gifts."

This review came with a score of 7 and all thumbs turned sideways.

What's wrong with this?

1.) Do websites have insight? I don't think so but owners do. This individual did not do a review of my site but rather a review of the owners insight.

2.) LR Guidelines state to start with what's positive about a site. This individual certainly didn't.

3.) Remarks of this nature are borderline character defamation. Remember there is an individual who most likely has spent considerable time and effort on their site, s be considerate. If you can't say something positive with come constructive comments, don't review. Just click off and go somewhere else.

4.) Use proper English so all can understand. Reviews can be picked up by SE's. In a review of this nature, both the site being reviewed and the individual who wrote it could be thought of in a negative way. In this case I marked as private so no one else can read. But, I didn't see this comment for hours since I only log in to LR certain times of the day to do my revirews. If a SE picked this up in that time period, my site will be thought of in a negative way.

5.) My site Far-EastGifts.com only sells handmade ethnic items from the Far and Mid-East. Not everyone likes them. Some individuals do, some don't. The comment as stated is a review of the product lines I carry ( My insight.) LR IS NOT A PRODUCT REVIEW SERVICE. LR IS ABOUT WEBSITES and HOW TO MAKE THEM BETTER - A WEBMASTERS SITE. If you doing reviews and looking at the products and reviewing them as to liking or not then your not reviewing. Review the photographs, the descriptions, the text in the site about products as to if these are presentable or not or possibly need improvement. If you're giving scores on like or dislike of the product or service, your not reviewing - your cheating and getting away with it. You don't have to like the product to review the site. If your offended or have a keen dislike of the prioduct - DON'T Review.

Comments please.

Here's the real suggestion:

LR is for everybody. If you don't like a site, say so.

Nobody can tell you what to do.

Use LR for what it is.

If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

You are not the expert on my site, nor anyone else.

Don't self promote. Notice how that post above got their self promotion in? They completely brake the rules, then they have the nerve to school you. Amazing. Stop the crap people. People can write anything and everything in reviews. Just like the morons who use this forum for what it was not intended. If you can't stand other people's opinions, don't use LR. And I don't like far-eastgifts.com because the owner sounds like a self-promoting jerk. There. Take that! I'll review as I damn well please. Don't like it? Get off LR. Simple. Now shut up and take your self-serving prissy-know-it-all-self-and-get-lost. Take notes, newbies! That's the way to handle self-promoting spammers! Oh and here's a misspelled word:"revirews." So, I suggest YOU take your OWN advice and write in PROPER ENGLISH!!!! Aint that something? Now we can only write in proper English! Oh brother! Get real people.

most likely this person was just trying to finish the number they needed and did not even look to see what your site has. we have had those also and everyone here has at one time or another. just look at it this way, you have the same right to do a review on that site also, even tho reviews should be honest and truthful.

You do concur that LR is about reviewing websites and not the products? This individual did the products and gave a low score because of that.

I don't give a rip what you think of my site. Rant away. It matters squat for anything. I don't review, I don't read reviews. And just for the record, my wife speaks and writes fluent Spanish. If she gives a review in Spanish, all the better! The world does not revolve around people writing in English on world wide sites like this. Get over yourself. Your site stinks. If you spent more time actually working on it and promoting it, you would not be crying in LR. Your crying in LR just shows how pathetic you and some people are here. Move on or get over it.

Who trying to promote themselves now - Tiger, Sarah, Stephie C and all the other names you post under. I know the game your playing - use some nasty verbage, insult as much as you can and that way you'll get some clicks to your sites.

Three replies to my original forum post and two by the same individual under two different names - Tiger and Sarah. We have still to suffer through more posts by this same individual under different names.

One thing - I do not support any American or website who/that attempts to make money off American troops blood being spilled in foreign lands. It is one thing to be patriotic and drum up support for our troops, but UNAMERICAN to place patriotic verbage with little pictures of the American flags along with links on a website in order to line their pocketbook.

The worst thing is when people promote their site in the comments area on the review page of your site.

How about saying something constructive.

Oh Sarah, Sarah, Sarah....(or should I say Doc, S, Giftmo, Joe, Dennis, Tiger, Surftiger, Needy, tim, Frodo).....you have completely missed the point of the original post. This isn't an attempt to spam...unlike many I could name, William does NOT spam anywhere on LR. It is an attempt to wake people up as to the proper way to give a review and consequences if a SE picks up the negative stuff....for the reviewer as well as the site reviewed.

He is absolutely correct....LR reviews are not about reviewing products on a site...which so many people do. It IS about reviewing the site itself. As far as you putting your two cents in about reviews...you carry absolutely no weight because, remember, you have stated many times (under your many different names) that you do NOT even do reviews. Remember, your opinion is that reviews are not necessary, that they are worthless, and a waste of time. Soooo, in short, your opinion carrys no weight.

Everyone misspells words while typing in the forums....in fact, you do it all the time so I wouldn't go down that particular road. You did it in this forum!

Because someone is trying to get others to write constructive reviews, instead of garbage, should be supported not put down. I thank God every time I read one of your posts that you aren't my children's or grandchildren's teacher!!

Since you do not write reviews and you do not care a flying flip about reviews, you sure as he*l don't have a voice in this thread. And that goes for all your LR alias's. And how dare you say his site stinks. Look at your sites, they are simple run of the mill squidoo lens's. What in the heck is wrong with you ???

William is a valued member of this community. He is not spamming. And William, not you, has the right to voice his opinion about a sorry arse review he received. William not only receives reviews, but he also writes reviews !

Doc, Surftiger, Sarah, College Bum, " S", STEPHEN C, get a grip and stay out of the forums that say reviews. You argue just for the sake of arguing and to get people to click onto your squidoo sites.

Wow...there is so much anger here in people's responses. I do read the reviews and some people write things that make no sense, they can't spell and are cruel. If you can't truly do what LR requires and be adult about it then get off LR.

Here's the real suggestion:

LR is for everybody. If you don't like a site, say so. = True

Nobody can tell you what to do. = True

Use LR for what it is. = True

If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen. = True

You are not the expert on my site, nor anyone else. = True

Don't self promote. Notice how that post above got their self promotion in? = False. Since the site name is listed under the member name, he is not giving new information. And, with that theory, then all of us would be guilty of SPAM, since our site name is listed under our name.

They completely brake (break is the correct spelling in this siutation) the rules, then they have the nerve to school you. Amazing. Stop the crap people. = Yes, this is amazing.

People can write anything and everything in reviews. = True, but that doesn't mean it's appropriate or according to the LR guidelines.

Just like the morons who use this forum for what it was not intended. = True and False - Ah, but based on the theory already expressed here, then anything is fair game, even in the forums. People can write whatever they want, and no one should be able to tell them otherwise. No One should get upset, because they're entitled to their own opinion, right? Isn't that what's been stated? And the key point here is that ALL forum posts go through LR administration. Maybe some of the shame should go there for letting these posts even appear. Has anyone ever thought about that? Does total blame rest with an O.P. if all questions are reviewed? If you truly think this is a total bogus, self serving spam forum post, then I suggest you follow up with LR Mike and take it up with him. William followed LR protocol, the forum keeper felt it should be posted and did so. So, I'm not quite sure why this is even an issue.

If you can't stand other people's opinions, don't use LR. = Sounds like good advice, wish more people would heed it.

And I don't like far-eastgifts.com because the owner sounds like a self-promoting jerk. = If that's true,then why perpetuate the issue? This post has just generated a huge buzz about his site.

There. Take that! I'll review as I damn well please. = True, as do most of us here. And I'll forum post as darn well as I please.

Don't like it? Get off LR. Simple. = Agree

Now shut up and take your self-serving prissy-know-it-all-self-and-get-lost. = Run peeps, run for the hills.

Take notes, newbies! That's the way to handle self-promoting spammers! = Granted, this is one way to handle spammers (not saying that William is a spammer), but there are several other options. My hope is that newbies will explore those other options.

Oh and here's a misspelled word:"revirews." So, I suggest YOU take your OWN advice and write in PROPER ENGLISH!!!! Aint (ain't)that something? Now we can only write in proper English! Oh brother! Get real people.

Whew, I sure hope that everyone who has expressed their anger and discontent feels much better now. I've heard that writing is very cathartic, maybe we're just helping people learn some better anger management techniques.

All I can say is WOW. Lets be adult and try to get along. L.R. Reviews are good most of the time. There are alot of folks that just get through life doing things halfway. When I get one of those now, I just mark it where the public can't see and go on about my business. I hope the next person I have to review don't want to sting me as what is going on in here. Folks have a good day and be blessed.

In my original post I wrote "proper English"

4.) Use proper English so all can understand. Reviews can be picked up by SE's. In a review of this nature, both the site being reviewed and the individual who wrote it could be thought of in a negative way. In this case I marked as private so no one else can read. But, I didn't see this comment for hours since I only log in to LR certain times of the day to do my revirews. If a SE picked this up in that time period, my site will be thought of in a negative way."

I looked up the definition of "proper" in "Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary" and found the definition : " marked by suitability, rightness, or appropriateness." I also asked a Spanish Teacher and a Chinese friend about the issue. Each language has it proper place for what the English call nouns and verbs. Doing this enables readers of the language written to grasp what is being stated. My reference to proper English was due to this review statement: "better insight on what the site is mostly gear to when it comes to gifts."

What is this individual telling me? I have no clue. No examples to back up a statement. This individual who wrote this sells cell phones and other electronics. Should I be selling cell phones? I haven't a clue.

My advice to newbies is to write in a understandable or proper language form wheither it be Spanish, Chinese or any other language. The review I received was not. Even with a review that is written in Chinese and in the proper form, enables translation into meaningful feedback.

The other issue I have is with one individual with numerous names who always posts in the Forums concerning reviews in a nasty, abusive, language. He calls people who post jerks, all other LR memers morons etc. etc. There is no difference between the individual who started my post with his comments and the this individual. I am tired of being called a jerk by this person. He has done the same in a least two other posts. I am writing to LR administration about this individual's conduct in forums. Any other LR members who are fed up with this crap should do the same. Perhaps if more LR Members show concern for what happening to LR, the LR administration will take some positive action.

Needy - another alias for Stevie C, Doc, Sarah, Surftiger etc, etc, etc etc etc. And the list goes on.

If just one of them would actually read the posts and follow up comments by me. Instead this individual reviewed my site accusing me of being "prejudice against non-Englishing speaking people.(Word for word what was written in the review)" The score was 5 and all thumbs down.

Fellow LR members this exemplifies just what my original post was about. Read it and the follow up posts.

LR needs to be an open forum WHERE constructive comments are passed between members, where reviews are done with some care so as to enable each members website being improved and without reprisals and malicious comments. We learn from each other.

Since when did you have to write good English to use LR? Get real people. LR is for ALL people from ALL over. Some don't know great English and that has nothing to do with anything. What a bonehead post.

Some additional comments and observations:

1.) I would like to point out to all LR Members that LR itself and the entire site only gives instructions,directions and comments in English.If individuals don't have good English how do/did they understand to join LR?

2.) The fact that LR is produced in English stymies people who have limited English. This limits their ability to participate in LR. Possibly the addition of a translator on the LR site would enable more members from around the world to participate or LR needs to be produced in a multi-language format.

3.) The review post that was the original subject example was written by an English speaking individual and not any member of Spanish, Asian or other ethnic descent. That individual certainly had the capability to do a review in a understandable format. He didn't- that is the issue and the advice.

4.) There have been certain responses to this forum post that contained name calling, abusive language and accusations. This type of rhetoric in not acceptable in any language. If your a newbie and decide to go down this road, thick twice. You can not as one individual stated write what you please.

When you start coming to the wrong forum, telling people your site (self promotion) and how they should review it, you are pathetic. People come here from all over the world. Be glad they toss you some crumbs on your pathetic site. It stinks as bad as that post. DON'T USE LR IF YOU CAN'T TAKE PEOPLE REVIEWING YOUR SITE THE WAY THEY PLEASE!!!!!! I urge everyone to give your site what it deserves.

Stephen C, you are way out of line !!!

Not only are you bombing this thread with your negative/abusive alias's, you have no clue to what spamming means.

William started a LEGITIMATE post about reviews. Reviews are part of the LR system. And William has all the rights to post his concerns about the way the review system is being abused !!!!

You on the other hand, are an ABUSIVE FORUM TROLL !!!! You DO NOT have the right to speak to any LR member that way - do you understand that ???. Read the LR forum rules !!!!!

The definition of a Forum Troll : A poster that is abusive to other forum posters. Now that term, forum troll has been on the net for years. And you fit the bill 100% !

You keep it up and I will personally write LR Mike about your abusive forum behavior. This LR community has put up with your BS for way to long.

The worst thing is when people promote their site in the comments area on the review page of your site.

How about saying something constructive.

For spammers of that type there is "The Spammers Wall of Shame." That is another post in this same catagory. Don't hestitate to add any individual who writes their website into the review to this ongoing growng list.

LR is for all people, whether you write in proper English or not. Just hope his site tanks as much as his spamming. NOBODY is supposed to put their url in a post. Period. So, get over yourselves. English writers do not rule the world. What, is everyone going to now post their site and say, "this is how I want you to review mysite.com?" If not, then why are you excusing this spam post? Why can't others, in fact all, LR users do the same thing? Stupid with a capital S.

Time and time again you make pointless posts here without any foundation. If one of your alias would just take time out and read the posts you will have noticed I clarified "proper" as "understandable" English. Having a Chinese wife, I read her English every day without any problems. The majority of people who are LR members and have limited English skills due to it being a second language write more understandable reviews than the English speaking individual who wrote the subject review in my original post. Don't attempt to make this forum into something it's not as you are now. Don't pretend to be a champion of a non issue.

Warning to you - never write another malicious review again on my site.

Stop the BS with changing verbage in the original forum post that doesn't exist. The term I used was "proper" English which in subsequent posts was clarified as "understandable."

Still another alias.

Why can't others, in fact all, LR users do the same thing? Stupid with a capital S.

For everyone's information and review. Please compare the name of my site in the text to the url address contained in my profile directly beside my post.

Did I write my url in the original post? No.

Could someone get my URL? Yes - it's in my profile directly along side the post.

Could they copy and paste from my post and get to my site? NO.

What was the intent? Was there intent to spam?

The name of my site was revelent to the issue of the forum post. The name of my site describes a specific type of commodity which I sell. The reviewer who was the author of the review I took issue with wrote something that I believe suggested I needed better insight into what was a gift. The issue was he didn't review my site but rather the products I sold. LR is about a site review and not product review.

Fellow LR members if your tired of the abusive comments and posts that originate from one individual time and time again, you need to speak up. Better still you need to voice your concerns to the LR Administration. Silence only supports these types. Don't let one individual scare you into not voicing your comments.

Apparently LR admin's thought it was a legitimate post because the thread got approved.

Really, that should be the end of all forum post complaints. LR Mike, the moderator, chooses what gets posted and I'm sure he has the ability to move it and/or delete it if he feels it belongs in a different category.

"If I make a lousy review, I get penalized by LR."

Get the wording straight, the review you referenced and wrote on my site was malicious and a vicious attack on me personally. LR administration agreed and removed it. Reviews are a part of a public record. Write another review like that to me or any other individual and the word you'll need to add to your limited vocabulary will be "suit" like in lawsuit.

LR is open to ALL. Like it or leave it. If you cannot take the heat, don't post crap in THE WRONG FORUM! You blatantly offended everyone here who cannot write in YOUR proper English! But as was pointed out, you can't write very well either! You deserve each and every lame review you get. And there's not squat you can do about it except WHINE BOO HOO! If you actually spent time doing the RIGHT things that matter for SEO and took LR with a grain of salt and used it only 0.0001% of the time, you might get somewhere. If not, you will fail. Blind leading the blind. The stupid teaching stupid. This thread is SPAM with a capital S. Well, enjoy eating it!

Blind leading the blind. The stupid teaching stupid. This thread is SPAM with a capital S. Well, enjoy eating it!
