The scores are often next to meaningless. What's important are the details of a review...WHY is the site good or bad? What are the problems? Give me INFORMATION, not a number.

agreed the score is kinda an overall thing, the words and details are what's important since it outlines what you want to know (amount of content,quality,updates,etc.).

Im pretty much the same as the other 2. LMAO it doesnt take much to interest me. Then I look at the preview and if I think its something thats promissing. Ill join. Ill also join to check out if they offer a 3 day discount to check it out.

A single score means nothing when you don't know or trust the one who made the review on the first place. On the other hand, even if you trust the user or site who made the review, it's not always that you share the same tastes. That's why I agree with Jay G. Information, details are important.

I put atleast 70, because lets be honest, how many good sites are there rated under 70. There are some decent ones however over 70.

I'll look at a review that has a score under 70 just because I'm curious what makes the site that bad but I'll never sign up for such a site. There are way too many good sites out there that I don't need to waste my money on a lousy site.
Don't get me wrong. A 70-79 score makes me a bit concerned as well, but because there are several cases where the 4 professional TBP reviewers award a high 70's or low 80's score (with good reason) to sites I may have an interest in, I may sink a month's membership in a site to see what it's got.
An 80 plus gets my juices flowing and my attitude is that, unless there's something I don't like about the site's preview, I'll spring for it.

I definitely take the score and details of a review into account when I join a site, but it's usually the type of content that attracts me to a site first. So, I voted "any score", but in reality I'll rarely if ever join a site that has any real negatives that have been backed up by other opinions.

I would have said 75 if it was available. I can't think of any website that I've ever been a member with a score lower than that. That said I need a bit more than just a number before I make my mind up.

I would say 70 is the lowest. I find many reviewers react badly to things that I don't care about and vice versa. The details in the review usually tell me enough to make a decision.
