This isn't for everyone. But a lot of you who write really high quality reviews deserve some more credit - and notice, than you've been getting. And in general, a lot of you have reviews that are of professional quality. Sputnik has started to receive e-mails from record companies wanting us to review certain releases in advance.

What I'm proposing is that I'll add an option (only if you want) that will display your real name on your reviews if you so wish. Eventually, it's a possibility some of you could become staff reviewers for sputnik, and get albums sent to you for free in advance (like pro reviewers do).

Now, this wouldn't be site-wide. The goal of sputnik is that everyone here can post their thoughts, opinions, and reviews. But if some of you are interested in adding the real name feature, let me know

I like the staff review idea.

Oh wow. That's incredible. I've always thought the staff reviewer thing was a great idea, but that's just fantastic.



Go for it. I see no negatives with this idea.

No shiet Sherlock?! :eek:

That owns so hard, good stuff. :thumb: I think the whole thing with the names and so on is a good idea, people who want to have that besides their username up there should have so. If enough people want it, that is
