I am seriously tired of people like cerilious getting points for bullshiiit reviews like on the SPY brand review page!! any less than three actual sentences shouldn't count.

This guy is looking for easy points.

i love that his quote is merp. but still seriously impressive to be on for 2 months and already be at 1500. pretty decent hours he is putting in for a hundred bucks. 

Check out the brand reviews this d-bag did to reach 1501 points (1370 were from 1 word brand reviews):

Not reviews but clearly point scamming

Glove reviews leave a lot to be desired.

THat box review... i just dunno where to even begin? Was it satire? :O I always thought i was great with the double edged nature of irony, but after reading that i dont know where anything is anymore :( 

First 2 reviews are weak... well, actually the Burton Stiletto Binding review is a review of the packaging, not the binding.  The 3rd review is a review of the customer service, not necessarily the binding.

Just what we needed, some spam!

Short non-point-worthy reviews:

Originally posted by ctoma Some people just need to relax, we're discussing points and crappy reviews here not world politics or debating religious views.  Online personal attacks and sending PMs bitching at someone is weak and spineless (rec'd a few of those myself...).

 

Poor reviews and a non-photo entry in the Funny pics thread... 2 strikes, no balls.

First, I want to thank Sintexo for assisting me in responding to my question in a kindly way.

Originally posted by nuggetuconn Ok comrade. Oh batman west you're so witty. Where do you come with these phrases?

Thanks mate! I assure you it's all original material right from me noggin. (wait, is this your attempt at embarrassing me as you stated in the PM you just sent me?)

As far as petitioning TS to remove the "Demo" option for reviews, not gonna happen. While yes, I really don't think it SHOULD be an option, there is nothing I can do about it, and it's not worth my time or energy to annoy a bunch of people about it in hopes to get it ended.
I will offer you the same advice in your spammed reviews. Move on, take in all the things and suggestions mentioned. Ipps offered you many suggestions for next time (as usual) so just don't sweat it.

I am sorry you have to look at my "ugly" profile picture, my mom thinks I'm handsome btw.
Honestly, I think you are lucky that all your reviews have not been marked. Someone out there is giving you a chance by leaving you at 7 of 10. Take that as your second....thir.....seventh chance and roll with it.

Move along, nothing else to see here

I searched "Product Spam" on the forum search engine. Sure you find it irrelevant and not helpful, but that's you. Whose to say someone else may find that helpful. You do realize in this modern age of Twitter, people don't want a dissertation.

I don't have a twitter account for a reason....and this isn't some hash tag shit fest.

Rules are the rules, guides lines are the guide lines...deal with it son. Obviously, the person the spam hammered your reviews didn't find it helpful either, eh?

Relevant is debatable. IMO there wasn't really a reason to dig up that thread, you could of just kept the convo going here...you know...in a current SPAM thread. Although, I do have to kind of thank you for digging that gem up (as Ipps said as well), Just got done reading that thread from start to finish, and oh hell it's a good one

Anyways, one last note...that scrip doesn't work here....

Originally posted by nuggetuconn Look reviews are subjective. You're looking for durability. Mine are unique. What would I regurgitate what people said already. I thought about purchasing a 154 custom twin as I ride a 154 custom directional 2010 line, but it's a good thing I didn't because I went to a local dealer and they were very helpful. Not one review posted my information.  Stop trolling bro. Seriously

Actually, I am looking for anything possible that can be said about a product. Unlike a few that frequent this site, I personally DO want a dissertation. If I am buying something online, I want to know everything about it from people that have used it, and used it for a while. I personally do not find any review that starts out "I demoed this", useful. I personally don't think you can fully describe and review a product after only using it for a few hours, but hey....that is just me.

Just because another review doesn't say what you said, doesn't make it helpful IMO. Hell, I could rant on about totally random stuff, doesn't make it helpful. Your point is invalid.

Point is, there are multiple people here that do not find your reviews helpful. Don't take it so personal, not everyone is meant to write reviews. If ya end up getting "locked out" from reviews, I can assure you it is for a reason. It's not because someone doesn't like you.

As far as trolling....that is your opinion. I personally look at it as trying to help out and offer advice into why you keep getting marked. I would bet a few cheezzburgers that a few others here agree on that, brah.

EDIT: As far as the 2+ year old thread, I am talking about you bumping the "Spam appeals" thread....last post was Oct. 2010. And as far as my 2K+ thread posts...I was talking about things...like snow, and cats, and photos, and riding lame ass Ohio hills, and bikes (lots of bikes) and music (also lots of music) and so on....I spend a bit of time here....brah. Shit adds up.

Originally posted by nuggetuconn Originally posted by sideways99 Really nice reviews... well, not really. http://www.trusnow.com/profile_reviews.asp?pf=217083 Dude what's your issue?

Probably your weak sauce reviews.

Really man, I just read through the ones you had left, and If I had the power I would delete at least 80 percent of what's left. For me, one of the biggest things I look for (besides fit) is how durable a product is. Can't find anything in any of your review that touched base on this.

You don't have to write a dissertation, but I do expect you to talk at length about how the product worked for you. Imagine you are describing the product to a blind person. When you can't physically touch/feel/use something, you want to know as much as you can about it. Sorry if that means you need to write more than a few sentences.
Also mate, bumping up a 2+ year old thread does not help your case.

Push comes to shove, I didn't find a single one of your reviews helpful, and it wasn't because of "grammar".
