ITT: List of Reviewers no longer active!

[Damrod]

So this stumbled across my mind, as I modded through Sputnik today: When I came across a review by 'hybridofsound' I remembered that there are quite a few reviewers (and real good ones too) that are no longer active. So, in order to bring the reviews 'up-to-date' (Add track listing, cover etc if not present) I would like to ask for your help.

If you know of any reviewer that is no longer active, and has left behind quite a few reviews that deserve attention, let me and Med know in this thread. I keep a list in this first post with the reviewers and their status. :)

Please give a possible link to one of the reviews or the reviewers profile!

I'm no longer active in so far as I'm not reviewing any more, and none of the 40-something (all but my William Shatner one transferred from the CD Reviews forum) reviews I have on there are properly formatted.

I'd edit them myself, but my moderator controls have disappeared. Feel free to contact me for help on any of them.

[Damrod]

Wow. just wanted to finish the work on hybridofsound's reviews, and was wondering why everything was already in place. Med, your one crafty individual ;)

[Bartender]

Thanks guys. Like I say, I would've done them myself, but death to my moderator controls has occurred. Here's some links for artwork that (I assume) you couldn't find :);

The Blueprint - Ecliptic (http://www.the-blueprint.net/images/ecliptic-booklet-front.jpg) (here (http://www.w-fenec.org/rock/photo/the_blueprint_ecliptic.jpg)'s a smaller one, if that other is too big)

The Blueprint - zero*zero*one (http://www.the-blueprint.net/images/001coverbig.jpg) (smaller (http://www.the-blueprint.net/images/Blueprint-EP-front.gif))

Cryptopsy - Blasphemy Made Flesh (http://www.metalpesado.com.br/GRAFICOS/wallpapers/wallpapersyahoo/images/blasphemymadeflesh.jpg) (smaller (http://www.displeasedrecords.com/images/bandimages/cryptopsy_blasphemy.jpg))

The Blueprint - Phenomenology (http://www.the-blueprint.net/images/phenomenlogy-front-smal.jpg)

Alec Empire - Intelligence and Sacrifice (http://www.my-multi-media.de/catalog/images/big/dhr_empire_inteligence.jpg)

The Alec Empire and Cryptopsy ones already have artwork in the reviews, but these are different in some way; the Cryptopsy one I've linked to here is the original cover art, whereas the review has the re-release from about eight years later. The Alec Empire review has a bit of the artwork from inside the booklet, rather than what is seen from the outside. I hope these images are okay for linking; I'm not sure what the size restrictions or anything on sputnik are.

Yeah, it didn't carry over the Shatner review. I don't think I'll bother reposting it though.

Awww :( why not? It was a great review of a great album

Now your reviews are really done. :) Thanks for the covers :thumb:

[Bartender]

Thanks, Damrod.

Awww :( why not? It was a great review of a great album

Thanks :) Everyone's already seen it though.

[Damrod]

Added Brycey to the list and brought his reviews up-to-date

[Jom]

For a number of people (like The JoZ, for instance), I planned on writing reviews on top of theirs, while incorporating the tracklists, album covers, etc.

Would this be okay or no? I have four reviews in queue, I just need to add finishing touches and other personal quirks :)

If you feel like reviewing the albums, feel free to do so. But if you want to do it just for adding the cover and track list, I would rather prefer it if you name the reviewers and we rework it. :)

But of course. My intention wasn't trying to step on your guys's toes here :)

I should have clarified my question: for albums that have already been reviewed but are lacking album art, tracklist, etc., may I write a review while also incorporating the album art, tracklist, etc.?

That's just what I wanted to know, really. Again, I wasn't trying to undermine either you or Med's authorities here.

[Damrod]

If you feel like it, sure. :) mx programmed the system so that there can be multiple reviews of a single album.

And, after all: Your reviews have always been a great addition to the site. Looking forward to 'em. :)

BTW, have not recognised you at first, I connected your name with the dog avatar... ;)

Okay, I tried going back, but I couldn't do a album picture upload or a tracklist for my new review... if you guys could do that, I'd greatly appreciate it.

EDIT: Never mind, I figured it out, sorry. Feel free to read the review though and give feedback :)

/shameless whoring

You know, my dog avatar is going to have to make a return, because everyone isn't very pleased that I changed it... oh well.

[Jom]

Actually, you know what...

The JoZ (http://www.sputnikmusic.com/profile.php?memberid=64660)

No longer active, so if you could add ratings/cover art, that would be great... considering I thought I was going to write additional reviews to his own, but none of the others seem to grab my interest.

Have fun adding and such :)

[Dancin' Man]

I don't understand what you guys are doing. Are you doing what I already did to my reviews (adding tracklists, and album art as well as reformatting the review and adding stars)?

You're 100% correct :)

A lot of the reviews by those guys are good, real good. And to spoil it by the lack of tracklisting and artwork is not necessary

[Badmoon]

I haven't seen anything from Robnathanson in awhile.

[Damrod]

I haven't seen anything from Robnathanson in awhile.

A link to his profile would be nice, could not find stuff by him immideatelly...

EDIT: already got it, so don't mind. I'll look through his stuff and update it if necessary :)

[pixiesfanyo]

BirdsofFire is no longer active, he did a Pink Floyd - Animals review and a Mahavishnu Orchestra review.

themightyquinn23. Banned, I believe. He reviewed a few of the RS albums. I see to remember him having another account, too. Maybe without the 23?
