Pot and the kettle , black or not .

I’ve noticed a small number of members who are always posting complaining about people not leaving reviews ,
( or complaining about other’s reviews)
but then Never leave any reviews themselves.
None. Never .
A bit frustrating at times
( when you see yet another comment w some complaint by someone who never does said complaint )
to say the least
Thoughts ?

Right, well it is the internet and its a forum .... but I agree about the complainers.
Nothing has changed from the old newsgroup days where the shit the trolls posted could be as toxic as anything you want to never read.
Hop into the several contentious threads in the Lounge if you want to see complainers, whiners and so on who for the most have NEVER left a review.
I think they call them leeches ??

It’s been a problem here for a long time. It’s actually important that reviews are posted because it draws in a lot site views which increases our presence. When noticed by potential advertisers it brings revenue.

We put in a rule for no calling shill in any review. It’s not a problem anymore. This doesn’t mean you can’t call out a non-reviewer for asking for 411. Like would it kill you to put together one paragraph??

Current reviewers could opt to not feed non reviewers any intel. Keep in mind there has been a fair number of zero post members who pm people for information about SP’s. If you give them intel be aware that they may not be a pooner and could be a stalker, ex BF, SO or pimp.

The just not leaving reviews part doesn’t bother me , it's going to happen. Its a public forum .
For myself its more specifically when I see people being very open online in their critique of others reviews and just generally complaining about those who don’t review ,
in some cases on a regular basis, as in thats all they actually post ,
When you can see clear as day that they literally never leave any reviews and most definitely have not for at least 5 yrs minimum.

A couple even had their accounts set up so you can’t see any posting history, so they obviously know what they are doing and just dont wanna get called out for it. If they are self aware enough to know what they do it just adds to the frustration.

Especially for example if they are say complaining about your review and they clearly don’t contribute in any way that is at all useful.
Those who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw bricks .

Ok rant over lol

I only have a problem with guys constantly on here asking for info and then never posting their experiences. I've had guy dm me asking about a certain sp and I check their post history and it's all 411 questions

And there are those who wait till the SP is gone to start reviewing or ask for her whereabouts.

Hypocrisy has been an issue on review boards from the start. Guys, girls, even us mods are guilty of it at times. That's why we have an ignore function.

Maybe a separate RANT thread and a separate RAVE thread.....
