That would make the most sense, as the current advanced users have done a lot with Eden and the review program.

Hello Everyone,

While none of these changes have happened yet, the plans for implementation have been approved and should not take that long (if all goes well).

I am so glad to hear this I was wondering when something like this was going to happen, due to the advanced changes in the point scales just glad to hear about this change.

Amethyst, when I see "Eden Writer" next to someone's name, it sounds MORE impressive to me than "Advanced Reviewer". Of course, I still have very little idea what I'm doing, too...

If everyone is grandfathered in is current time spent, # of reviews and rank still considered or will we all be put to the same advanced status?

And if I'm correct, rank is still a separate thing? So nothing will change that is rank based (rank needed to become a mentor, editor, etc)?

Does this mean that requests will no longer be free ever again? No more one free a month (which I haven't gotten in probably about a year anyway)? I've been so out of touch.

It's also a ... more
I used to be an 8.5 or something, and look where I am now. I remember the days when I was ranked number four or so. That was years ago now.

I think in one of the other updates recently it's been stated that free assignments are no more. Someone correct me if I'm wrong though.

I think that the increasing in points for reviews will be a much needed change. Sometimes I feel that 50 points is just not worth the time it takes to write a review

Sounds like you got things going in the right direction!

What sort of buyout percentage(s) are you guys thinking of?

So let me get this straight eventually ( other than the descriptive review program) we will ONLY be doing buyouts and there will be absolutely no free shipping or shipping discounts to Canada?
