We had no means of emailing you on the old pages so it was your responsibility to check back.Common reasons for removing reviews are insufficient length (I think Russ said he wanted to see 300 words minimum), saying nothing substantial about the product, or using the reviews as a platform for airing personal greivances, or expressed intent to "overcompensate" for a review you disagree with. I do not apologize for any of these reasons and feel they are expedient to maintain the quality of the reviews page.Having a staff reviewer disagree with you has never been a reason to remove a review. Trust me.  <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":]" title="Devious    :]" data-shortname=":]" /> Also, there have been technical issues that have necessitated removal of reviews from the page. Sometimes a hiccup created duplicate reviews and removing them without removing the originals was iffy on the old page, and if you had reviews under the old system under a name that did not map to an ENWorld user name, there is a good chance that it got stripped off in the translation. In some of these cases, it was possible to contact the author and let them repost it, in some cases it was not.</blockquote>
