[QUOTE="Ghostwind, post: 950146, member: 3060"] This issue comes up every two or three months and 9 times out of 10 it's directed at my site/staff reviews and usually from a very small handful of specific individuals who have issues with how reviews are scored because it doesn't agree with their preconceived notions. The review in question was posted to my site on May 27th and has had 454 reads and zero comments. It was cross-posted to EN World in the evening on June 17th and was immediately criticized. Everyone is certainly entitled to their opinion and may agree or disagree with a review. However, I do think that a certain level of professionalism and courtesy should be expected in all comments. The fact that the review in question has had so many reads on its home site and no comments would likely indicate that either people agree with the review, have no opinion with the review, or disagree and do not wish to comment. But yet on this site, if a review is scored in a manner that is judged wrong (whether it is giving FFE a good score or Monte's stuff a bad score) by certain parties, you can almost bet that character assassination will commence. Unfortunately, it tends to happen more often than not from what I've seen here. I agree that there should be something inserted into the FAQ and I think the moderators should police it more effectively, deleting any posts or even reviews that cross the line into personal or corporate attacks. Just my .02 worth... [/QUOTE]
