reviews lead to reviewing!
Ditto here! I review less often than when I started on the board, but I try to put in as many as I can... I am not sure I am a "good reviewer", I am certainly not a good writer, but I try ot put info of importance. I am not writing a penthouse letter to try to arouse the reader, but it's OK with me when some others do that.
I especially try to review when the lady has very few reviews, when the reviews are mostly one sided and I have a very different experience or when it has been a long time that the lady has received a review and I want to re-iterate that things are still good. Do I keep some secrets to myself? Probably at times, but one thing is for sure: when there are few reviews globally --and not just on one lady-- coming out, I am less "stimulated" to put out a new review myself.. whereas when there are many new posts I too feel more like contributing something!
One thing though, I wish some members would be more respectuous towards newbie reviewers-- it is not an easy thing to do the first few times...
As this board is useful to me, helping keeping up to date with the biz and avoiding bad experiences, I'm trying to review as much as I can.
(...) : I want to benefit from other people's reviews, and I believe sharing will lead to sharing.
