Were you really expecting otherwise? ;)




Well you're right, this was probably a bit too much for me, as a not-so-good reviewer...

22 out of 24 people think it was done well, man. That's a decent margin by any standard.

Especially since there aren't a ton (or arguably any at this point) troll negs.

That may be but if the contributors say it's not good that's a lot more important than 'likes'. No?

That's not what I meant. This is an album that people obviously feel very strongly about (something which you yourself admitted earlier today lol), so it is obvious that they will put your review under heavy scrutiny in order to see whether what you said has any merit. As a result, any mistake will instantly be magnified X 10.



Don't be disheartened. There are several positive take-home messages from this:



i.) 22 out of 24 people agree you did a good job (that is an amazing number of votes - the most I have received is 23 lol).

ii.) You have improved a lot as a writer.

iii.) You are now aware of your weaknesses (which is something everyone needs more of).

iv.) You know what kind of stuff your audience wants.



All told, I think your effort paid of spectacularly =)

The contributors are just users who've wrote a lot of reviews, their opinion isn't hightened because of that. Some of the best writers on this site are 'only' users.

Clearly you didn't get the departmental memo that said, "a pos from Phlebas is henceforth a.) worth five Contrib votes, b.) can be deposited at any European bank as a mortgage-able asset, and c.) is also redeemable in exchange for a Big Mac."

Wait Observer you're not gonna tell me my reasoning is bad etc like the other contribs?




nope. most of their comments are their opinions about your opinion and how you expressed it in your review.I understood your reasoning perfectly. Some people like to get beat up with sound. You don't, and that's totally okay. Your point is clear enough as it is. This whole thing where your rating isn't validated is bull shit lol. Who actually thinks they can tell anyone what a rating means to another person anyway. My 5.0 albums may mean totally different things to any other user's 5.0 albums, or 2.5 or 1.0 albums, whatever.



You didn't have to go into any more depth for me to get it, and mind a few typos, it was a good read. Also, in my opinion, regarding your opinion, you shouldn't have to write a review based on how the community here will react, you know? Our reaction to your take on one of our favorite albums shouldn't determine whether your review is good or not. If this was a review for any other album it would still be good. Just because it is for Jane Doe doesn't mean you have to write it better. That's just my opinion, though, so I guess I have to disagree with Eric. Just expect the negative comments or more views because it's a popular album and whatever.

"O you who turn the wheel and look to windward,

Consider Phlebas, who was once handsome and tall as you."



Now how can you disagree with a pos from a guy like that?



Sorry Phleb, am just washing your balls full-time here today.

your review.




Thanks a lot observer.



I'm surprised the Staff haven't descended on this review like a bunch of school bullies and

haven't tried to get you banned yet or just scream and rant about their "superior" love for Converge.

Oh well, pos'd.


Yes I'm surprised as well! And thanks.
