It took me three days, but that varies with everyone, but if you just keep checking this thread you can have it within three days.

You mean I'm not the only one who's got a Garbage from this thread?

Of course not, your not the first, second, 30th, 100th, or last either. So don't feel bad.

Shit. Well, what does everyone class as an 'abusive' review?

Read the review guidelines. That is the foundation and pretty much what we follow as what is classes as abusive.

I basically only flagged ones that are so short (kinda: omg dat woz k00l),

Those are pesky, could go either way. I usually look at the the rest of the rest of the person's reviews and see if they have any more gayness.

ALL CAPS (OMFG DAT WOZ TEH BEST MAKE MORE PLZ MY FAVE),

All caps reviews are not considered abusive just from that.

(this sh*t sucks go f*ck yo mom),

Those reviews are always abusive and if recent enough, ban worthy

or just plain stupid (like most of the reviews for Binary Code Translator: just writing a review in binary)

Yeah, I saw those. The thing is, those reviews are for a binary translator flash, which is also a gadget. For the user to actually use that gadget to give a review, shows that they viewed the flash and I guess liked it enough to respond in a positive. So, I till I get a chance to sit down and see what they say (to make sure they are positive and not insults covered) or talk it over with someone else, I just clear those without negative points to everyone.

Thanks, Kidray76!!! I wouldn't think that some of the rules for reviewing could be classed as 'abusive' (e.g. commenting on another reviewer's review). They're annoying, damn annoying, but I wouldn;t have thought of them as being abusive. Also, I have seen a couple of 'blam this' reviews and have been on there for quite some time. Some even have '1/8 people found this reivew helpful' (which presumes that many people have put 'abusive'), and they are still there. Don't know why, but it seems that 'abusive' very widely differs depending on who says. I might just wait until a 'harsh' mod comes along :P

Alot of those reviews were just harsh critism. Like saying:

Title: This sucks
Summary: This flash controls were bad, no plot, no storyline, poorly animiated, and not funny.

Something along those lines. That isn't abusive, just given it like it is in my opinion.

Thanks, that really helps. No wonder I had a garbage whistle in my other account. I must have had at least -2000 whistle points. Too bad negative whistle points are heavier than positive.

Watch the wording, commenting on reviews you DISAGREE with. That usually justs pointless flaming.

Also, I have seen a couple of 'blam this' reviews and have been on there for quite some time.

Again, never hesitate on those. See soemthing like that, guaranteed whistle points ;)

I see where you get wrong, read the review, never mind that number. It doesn't show how many people thought it was abusive, just how many people thought it wasn't help. They can press no and abusive button is homogenious for that number.

LOL. No problem, dig a grave, hard to get out.

IF i had to guess this review was deleted because it appears to be in response to another review. This clearly violates rule #6 (Do not use the review field to address other user's reviews you didn't agree with. ) If i am mistaking and this is not the case there is also another option.

The review mod may have judged that your review breaks rule #2 (Reviews that are found to offer no benefit to the author maybe deleted.) Review mods are hand picked by admins so if the mod feels your review offers no benefit to the author then there judgment should be considered valid. I feel it does offer the benefit of knowledge but not the benefit of improving future submissions [which i think is the goal of the review]

Hope this helps a bit

I told him what I think of the flash and some history he got wrong.

you said one thing about the flash - 'i like the 3D style'. most of the review doesn't focus on the submission, which is probably why it was deleted.

thanks. this is fun
