I like using the template. It reminds me of what to include and offers a good way to organize all of the information.
As a customer/reader, do you prefer free form reviews or the template?

I prefer the template, it helps me out when I don't have the creative juices (no, not THOSE juices ) flowing and makes it easier to come up with stuff to right, although sometimes the 'examples' aren't quite helpful, could use some work :3

I like the template just because it helps me remember everything.

i like the specifics of the template. details are really important to me, and generally the templates have more.

I really haven't read enough template reviews to say but one thing I've noticed is that bad reallys really, really, really ... more

I really haven't read enough template reviews to say but one thing I've noticed is that bad reallys really, really, really stick out more with the template. I like the functionality of the template review but don't actually see myself using it because I like to get the whole "I'm reading a review experience." Some reviews also feel really choppy. So far, it seems like better reviewers have had an easier time using the template which makes it easier for me to read. However, I do think I will like it better the more I see of it. less

Free form really allows me to have fun with it. I'm starting to venture away from the serious, answer-the-questions-o r-else reviews!

I definitely prefer template. It's more organized.

I like the template because even as a product reviewer (of other products, just not sex stuff) I find that the template helps keep better order..I always read the header and make sure that my words meet everything in each header. Great way to not leave something out.

I like writing and reading reviews with the template. It does seem choppy but it keeps me organized and if I need some specific info I can get to it faster. I like free form reviews too though but only if they are written well.

I'm fairly new with reviews (as you know ), but as far as rating them goes, I have the tendency to rate a review based on how it's organized. I guess I'm partial to the templates because that's how my brain works.

It depends--some reviewers just have a knack for not only including all the necessary info, but also organizing it in a way that's fun to read, in which case I'd rather they just do their own thing. Most of the time, though, I prefer the extended review--if a review isn't particularly engaging, I'd rather just skip to the sections I'm most concerned with than read through the entire thing.
06/02/2012
I like them both

I prefer the template for toy reviews. People are used to it so it's much easier to skim for the necessary info.

Templates are easier to read and write. Sometimes I just want to know about a few key aspects of an item and if I can just skim to the section I'm looking for, I really appreciate that.

Most the time I won't even read it if it's in the template. I guess I'm being overly picky tho...
