I believe this guy's a pedophile.
I think that's just the impression he wants to give out. Either way, the guy weirds me out a bit, whether it's genuine or an act.

I did not know that was aginnst the rules can someone tell me when you know when its ok to review again. Its typical to get one now when i just joined the review request club
I guess you didn't give any constructive criticism and just said "it doesn't work"? Could be that it actually did work, but you didn't realize it. Sometimes flash submissions don't have preloaders, but because it's a larger filesize, you're staring at a white screen for a few minutes while the thing loads up.
Just be careful when reviewing. There seems to be a lot of different opinions on the definition of 'abusive' out there, and even the mods occasionally can't seem to agree with one another. It's all just semantics really, but some mods will delete things that other mods won't.
I just review things that I like these days, so I'm always giving praise to the submission, or enthusiastically listing ways to improve it. That way there's no room for anybody to consider the review abusive.
I know that when you're in a club such as the review request club, it's more difficult to have policies about what you do and don't review, as you pretty much have to review what's there if you want to keep up with everyone else. Just be careful is all I'm saying. Focus on the positives, and add the negatives in the form of constructive criticism as something of an afterthought.

Well, first off, British accents are just fine. :-) But either way, once you get a mic (the cheapo non-powered ones don't work in the mic port, so you'll have to get a USB headset or mic), you'll be welcomed on. I want to get the forums up and running first, though. That'll take me a bit of time. After that, my Mac will be ready and available for podcasting.
Sounds good to me. Hopefully it'll be great :)
