my response rate is dropping significantly, and it has been doing so for the past few days. at the moment its at 30.511%, which is the lowest its been at for like a month! haha. well, i dont really care for responses now (except when Hamy_Jamy reads this, i want him to respond to my two reviews i did for his flashes!! haha), but more so for the reviews... and i think that i've been doing quite well, as today i got myself 25 reviews, yesterday 24, and the day before that 21... so yeh, good times for me =D haha.
well, goodnight all. i hope that when i come back tomorrow, theres some damn postage!! lol.

Hmph... Im still not catching a hold of the review bug... Im tired, cranky, got a shit load of school shit, and am all around bored of reviewing.

yeh, i dont think that i'll be getting to many reviews in the next few hours (i'd say about 0) because at the moment, me, my dad and my grandfather are outside sanding down the freaking house so we can repaint it... its not too bad.
----
also, i have a question that should be aimed at Gfox i think...
you know that list (i may be imagining things) where it shows all accumulated points by a member?? like you add up their posts, exp, b/p, reviews and show the grand total? well, i think that it used to be you had to have 10,000 points to get on that list, and i just noticed that im on like 10,100 or something. so i was wondering if you could tell me if A: that list is still around, and B: if it is, where i can find it!
i'll have a bit of a look-see for it myself, but otherwise... thx! hahah.

bah! we need more postage, everyone.
also, Hamy_Jamy hasn't been around for the past two days, and as a result he hasnt reviewed a single submission in that time. but any bets he'll come back and start going at 50+ a day... for like two weeks, haha.

I've just lost all motivation..
I reviewd about 15 today... but it took a couple of aleve to get through it.

wtf? no posting in over 30 hours!? awwww where the hell is everybody? Hamy_Jamy is still away, for reasons unkown. he said that he would have a lot more free time in the days to come, so where's he at? lol.
j00b's is out doing other things, as he cant seem to get back into the swing of reviewing.
and as for the rest of you, i have no idea where you all are!!!

Quite some reviews there Marcus :)
Glad you reviewed a ton of my movies... I just responded to all of them...

Im just really sick of reviewing as of lately.
Ive watched all of Seizure_dog's movies, and am trying to review em, but the interest of it is all gone.
I may review 'The Matrix Still Has You' that just came out... though I nearly fell asleep watching it. BORING!
I may as well post these numbers now... these numbers wont be changing for a while.

How the hell can you review that much? You must have a lot of time to spend of reviews unless you are a one-liner reviewer but I guess that you aren't because you complained in another post about some reviewing spammers like KWAS (he's not the worst). Not all his reviews are spam but at least a half is.

baaah most reviewing spammers have nothing to worry about as long as their reviews aren't abusive :O It looks like ng got used to them.

Just flip through my reviews, trust me.. im not a one-line reviewer.
Noone who posts in this thread is.
My review for The Matrix Still has You was loaded with awesomeness, with an overall rating of 3.

How do I review so much?... Im a fast typer so that helps for sure.
I just review for fun.... then when I found out about this list, I started reviewing more and more, while maintaining a good length.

Now look at me! I found the list, massive surge of motivation and now Im on top... sort of.. >=O.

FireHound - yeh i went on a massive spree last night (the biggest one i've ever been on), and i did 54 submissions yesterday, and when you posted in here last, i looked at one of your submissions, saw that you respond to reviews, and i immediately bookmarked your profile :D lol, so yeh i think i'll try and get the rest done later on tonight :)

You children may want to check the Top Reviewers list when it get's updated.

i was so hyped up about what happened to me today i guess, full of energy and such.
The reason for the sudden urge of energy is because of This thread.

well, i havent written a single review yet today, because A: i was working outside untill around 12:30PM, then i went round to my grandparents house with my cousin and played table tennis for like 2-3 hours, heh. im buggered, but i'll get some rev's done :).

Some movies are different from others and some give more to say then others, but i just like to be stright to the point, and get on to seeing the next movie.

(ahem)... not all of us who write long reviews are "rambling on about crap just to make [the review] long." Some of us just like to cover everything we thought of while watching and/or thinking about a flash entry. My reviews tend to be quite long because I tend to go over everything I think is worth talking about, from the plot to the graphics to the humour to the violence to the best part to the parts that could use a little improvement. etc. etc. etc.

There's nothing wrong with getting straight to SEVERAL points instead of just one simple one. Except that you'll never beat XwaynecoltX in reviewing... but then, is that all you're reviewing for? I hope not. Review however long you feel like reviewing. But don't knock people who don't review the way (or the length) you do, please.

Dude, that's like the same thing you said to me when I corrected you and/or Bila (can't remember exactly) on something about level 30s and whether there can be more than one.

Why not just say "whoops, I meant she." or "whoops, I didn't realise Violet's a she," whichever is applicable, instead of going on about "true, BUT... excuse excuse excuse... Everybody KNOWS what I/you/he/whoever means, jeez! This is YOUR problem, not mine!" which is how you sound whenever you do that. Like you're trying to sidestep the simple correction, which isn't mean to be a criticism. Just a correction.

Um, dude... NO XBOX GAME is an "oldie." No PS2 or Gamecube game either, for that matter.

I have none of those three CURRENT consoles, and since they ARE exactly that (current), how can you call any game for them "old?" The NEWEST game I have for ANY console is probably Crazy Taxi 2 for the Dreamcast. And the newest computer games I have are like Diablo 2, Sims, Fallout Tactics, Oni, Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds, Civ 3, Planescape: Torment. IOW, your 22 Xbox games are ALL newer than any game I own. Congratulations. O_o

Oldie = older than 8-10 years, IMO. Kids these days... go play some NES or Atari 2600 or something and find out the TRUE meaning of old.

Ha ha. Good point there. And way to bring up KWAS as a reason for the people who dislike him in this thread to make sure their reviews are nice and long. #;-}>

And indeed, he isn't the worst.

baaah most reviewing spammers have nothing to worry about as long as their reviews aren't abusive :O It looks like ng got used to them.

By "reviewing spammers," I hope you aren't including LINK spammers or TEXT/CHAR spammers in that. If you just mean short review spammers, yes, they're absorbed into the system and it's fine. For one thing, their pointless reviews (as long as they aren't abusive, as you correctly noted) don't really do anything to anyone or clog shit up like pointless one word/one line posts do on the BBS. Reviews fall into obscurity a lot faster than posts do, in the case of most entries. And it's ALWAYS the case of lesser of two evils. They're the least of the review mod's problems, provided, once again... that they're not spamming links, spamming tons of text, or being abusive.

...

Anywho, guys... I've been stuck at 468 due to business/laziness/not feeling inspired for more than a week now. I guess I probably won't hit 500 until October. Like I've said, I've got a stack of entries I want to review all lined up... it's now up to 469-508, so if I review 'em all or even most of 'em if some are gone or I decide not to review 'em after all, I'll easily break 500 just from those alone, not even counting new movies that come along that I decide to review as well... so... we'll see.
