I'm Back II Hi guys, I kinda knew that I wouldn't stay away for too long, after all this is my home away from home, but after dropping in almost daily to see how things were going I decided what's the use of putting myself into a self-imposed exile if I can't stay away from the place for more than a day. So, I'm baaaack! In connection with my original decision to quit for a while because a webmaster misused a review of mine I have come to this conclusion: I will never again write a review unless I have been a member of a site for the full subscription term (usually a month) because sites that I found initially quite good did not look so good after a few weeks and I found faults I had not noticed originally. In any case, I missed all of you, and am happy to be able to mingle again. messmer | |

It's great to see you back so soon. Personally, I think you're way too hard on yourself. Your reviews are solid. And most people are human, we tend to make mistakes at least once in a while. I make mistakes all the time, but I've learned to live with it. I don't have much choice about that. | |

Thanks, lk2fireone. I appreciate your kind welcome back. I knew I wouldn't last long in exile. :-) And you're right I do dwell too much on the mistakes I make. That's the nature I've been given .. but it's never too late to change, is it? | |

Seriously, just because a webdick misused your stuff does not mean that you should stop doing what you like to do. Besides that kinda takes it out on the wrong people. Just do what we do here, tell everyone what this person did and we can all haze them from there. If nothing else, keep on contributing to for forum.

My leaving was a knee jerk response and I knew it wouldn't be long before I made it back, badandy! :-) And I will keep doing reviews because I really enjoy it except, as I wrote above, maybe I'll give things a bit more time before I put something down on paper (or its equivalent) about a site. First impressions aren't always the most accurate ones. As to the Forum, you couldn't keep me away. I dropped in every day to see what was new, except now I couldn't contribute any longer. Well, that's what knee jerk responses usually are like .. just plain dumb! :-) | |

Hi Messmer, welcome back. I came back about the same day you left was pretty funny actually. I was here and poof you were gone. Glad to see ya, I read your post when you left and I tell ya, the point of a review is YOUR.. point of view. Mbaya said it right, don't be hard on yourself. Hey I will tell you flat out I could care less if a webdick liked my review or not. Bottom line I put out the dough not them and if I like it I like it, and if it sucks it sucks. Just remember its your dime not theirs. Reviews are not to publicize crap or self interest thats why the boot those webdicks who try and promote by cheating, Here you are able to say what e feel is what makes PU work so well and be popular and is why I came back :-) Since 2007 | |

Great to have you back! Are we missing any more of our older members (in terms of membership)? I had a webmaster use part of a comment, not an actual review, on his site but it was discuss issues I had raised, not take them out context to promote the site. I had been a member on and off for years, so I was well aware of any faults but I was talking more about stylistic changes that I saw. I never took it too seriously, and a site only really worries me when they take my money, not my reviews. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Hey, Cybertoad, glad to see you, too. I had missed you. My problem was that the webmaster basically stated in a reply: "Hey, messmer supplied a lot of valuable information that helped us correct the problem of slow speeds, so come on in and join us and find out for yourself!" If the speed had improved I wouldn't have minded but it was the same as it had been before I "helped" them out and I felt that my name was being used as a propaganda tool which cheesed me off. Aw, well, it's over and I'm back where I'm content. :-) | |

Thanks for the welcome back, turboshaft. This place (meaning the regular members) has become very important to me so I'm glad my snit didn't last too long. :-) And I think I will try to develop a tougher hide. | |

Yep - that's my self-imposed rule - no reviews until I've been a member for at least a month - it's just too easy for first impressions to lead in a direction - pro or negative - that doesn't hold up over several weeks. Of course, some sites have a particularly good or bad month, but it's a reasonable time to wait to do a full review - not that I'm recommending it as something that ought to be a general rule, but it's one that I try to keep to. | |

Yep, I think it will be a reasonable personal rule to stick by, PinkPanther. I am currently subscribed to a site I was highly enthused about at first but now I am finding hidden flaws that were not readily apparent during the first week or so and they would definitely knock the site down by at least five points. And I'm with you when it comes to making our method a general rule. May each do it in his own way. | |
