Rejected reviews

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

Rejected reviews

Post by Jacob Mamman »

I have multiple rejected reviews just because of grammatical errors on the review. There's this review I did, two scorecards 74% and 42% and it got rejected just because of grammatical errors.

I have learned that if you don't run your whole review through a grammar/spelling checker before submitting, this will happen. It is best to fix the suggested errors so that they will score you higher. I believe they are mostly subjective when editing.

My latest review, which the editor said was "exceptional!", was initially rejected but the scorecard did not state why. When I requested a recheck, I asked why the review was rejected and the response from the editor was that if the review has "errors up to 4, its an automatic rejection now so be careful." My suggestion is to put something in the guidelines that clearly state that if a review has 4 or more errors, it will be rejected.
