Rating Reviews : PLEASE BASE YOUR VOTE ON ........

Contributor: OH&W, Lovebears OH&W, Lovebears
Please base your vote on the helpfulness of my review, not on how much you like the item. Thank you!

So I saw this brief paragraph on a few of our EF members banners. It never dawned on me what it actually met. One day I rated a review as "Not Useful"

I gave that rating because I really did not like that product, a spanking stick. I remember when a stick was painfully applied to myself as a youngster. His review brought back bad memories.

Anyway another thoughtful member pm me and inquired why I gave such a rating since the actual review was very informative and detailed. She educated me on how to properly rate reviews.

So my question is "Have this happened with any other members ?" Any of you ever made the same mistake ?

Oh,

And I did pm that reviewer and apologized for making the error. I also pm the EF administrator and asked if she could change my rating. Unfortunately she could not. So please be careful and considerate when rating reviews please.

Also, I wouldn't mind hearing how the rest of you rate reviews. Especially you veterans. Please share with us. There are a lot of new members and this may help everyone here.

I usually prefer to keep a low profile, but I have to speak up this time. Where are your manners? How dare you copy paste my personal slogan onto your thread, and casually tell everyone it is just a brief sentence from a few EFers' banners! You knew perfectly well the slogan belonged to me, yet you didn't even have the decency to tell everyone that the sentence you quoted was mine??? This so-called brief sentence is actually the personal slogan I wrote for my own wall, did I give you permission to display it on your thread? Even preschool age children are taught to respect and not touch others' belongings. My original slogan was written two years ago, and it is still displayed on Edeneve's wall (with my permission): "Please base your vote on the helpfulness of my review, not on how useful the item is to you, thanks." And because of your downvoting incidence mentioned at the beginning of this thread, I updated my slogan to what everyone's reading now: "Please base your vote on the helpfulness of my review, not on how much you like the item. Thank you!". I value my personal slogan very much, and I DO NOT like people using it without my permission! If you happened to see my exact slogan shown on a few other EFers' wall, then those people must have stolen it from me.

I know you started this thread because someone (maybe a newbie) gave you a "somewhat useful" rating on your masturbator review, and you're trying to find a roundabout way to tell ALL the EF newbies "not" to vote like that, right? I'm sure you already have something in mind. So please, be straightforward and tell the newbies what to do in your own words, and leave my personal slogan alone! Thank you!

Rossie, Let me apologize again. I didn't know you would get so upset. I would not have done so had I known. I'm deeply sorry.

I'm new as everyone knows, and have rated many reviews for items I have never used or even plan on using. I do not believe I have ever rated a review bc of the item itself. I've based all of my ratings on the details and description within the review.

I always rate reviews based on the quality of the review itself not based on the product. For example, if the review was professional, objective, and informative I'll give it a high rating whether or not I like the product.

Apology accepted. I do hope this type of situation will never happen again.

So much for my plan to make an Etsy store with merchandise that features your slogan.
