Yea that's a good idea actually. Because I read the whole thing when starting out, but occasionally have to re-visit for just one little bit of info. Having them bullet point would make ... more
If you do every video while twirling, I could watch for at least 20 min!

I love the video reviews, because it helps see the size/function of the actual product. But I don't like hearing all the same info that's already listed under the product. I like hands on information that you won't get from the mfr. I think that's where they get long.

I will, been wanting to smack that ass for awhile now.

Oh wait, I have to be nice to my bud...maybe if I kiss it, that would be nicer.

They're the ones working on it now. I'm just the guy who makes sure the title, description, and tags work and are formatted correctly.
Oh got ya. Okay, so we were both correct then. You can start doing them at any time but need approval first. ?

They do need to be approved by Carrie Ann first if you want the gift card payment, but there's no hoops you have to jump through to upload the video once it's approved. After you get the ok you can upload anytime.

yup!

2-4 is good, depending on how interesting the product is.

Pretty much.

And a 6.0 or higher I believe to get video review assignments as opposed to being able to just add videos to reviews.

Dildos need less, but I feel like things with lots of functions or possible uses need more. I try to keep mine around 3.

There's nothing wrong with smacking it and then kissing it.

That's an excellent idea - and to mention how well it keeps it shape after being bent into the position you want it to be in with stuff like the bendable vibes from evolved and other similar products.

When you compare I dont mind the extra length, but when its a lot of ummmms and repetition about a simple vibrator it gets boring.

I love adding videos to my reviews, if I can't because it already has enough vids I at least add pictures. Visual just adds so much to the review!
