We do read, and edit if needed, all guest reviews and some of them do provide the reader with a different view point of an album. All of the Staff reviewers started out as "guests" at one point or another so dismissing the guest input does not do them justice. Don't want to argue the point and your suggestion has been brought up - and is implemented btw.

Account deleted Written by D.T. Metal on 05.11.2013 at 20:34 Well, I don't mean to imply that, it's just harder to find the official reviews the way it was before. It would be kind of like trying to go to Rotten Tomatoes and having journalist reviews lost among user reviews. Thanks for hearing out my suggestion!

05.11.2013 - 20:56 Written by Guest on 05.11.2013 at 20:51 No problem dude - and now the option to select between "official" and "guest reviews" is available in the review section

06.11.2013 - 15:04 Written by D.T. Metal on 05.11.2013 at 20:34 not really for example if I admit a review it will be a staff review. I never started out as a guest reviewer. Same for Wrathchild, Jeff, Collin, I think BitterCOld as well and many more of the old timers.

06.11.2013 - 15:18 Written by Guest on 05.11.2013 at 00:31 hmm but I should say some of the guest reviews are not that bad to make you feel wasting time on them, in fact some of official reviews are not that good because of maybe the pressure for just writing them down, so I think it is much fair to keep all the reviews in one row therefore they can be read too.

Account deleted Written by angel. on 06.11.2013 at 15:18 Like my other comments said, it's nothing against guest reviews. The opposite could also be said, maybe one day I'm in the mood to read guest reviews and not staff. The ability to view them separately is not only practical, it also gives one the opportunity to see what the guests are into compared to what the staff is reviewing, seeing if there are any trends, ect. Seems like such a big deal is being made over this.

Somebody should make a thread where new guys like me can introduce ourselves since we can't create threads ourselves.

30.03.2014 - 12:32 Written by Helloface on 30.03.2014 at 05:28 You must be new to forums, or just didn't look very hard. There is an area towards the bottom of the main forum page, called "Metalstormers". Click on that. After the page loads you'll find "Welcome Newcomers!" in the top 4 topics. And if you're interested in other users from specific countries, like Canada for example, look below the top 4 topics and you'll eventually see "Canadian Metalstormers". Hope this helps.

Might have been suggested before, but if there's a way to prevent more than one nested quote happening then it would be a worthy tweak. Too long quote trains are too long.

01.04.2014 - 07:36 Written by Risto on 31.03.2014 at 22:59 That would come in handy. As it stands right now some of us edit posts that take up too much space but having it done automatically would be neat.

01.04.2014 - 11:37 Written by R Lewis on 01.04.2014 at 11:26 Yea, but many people just don't bother. That's what is causing all the chains that we see out there. It might not be that simple to figure out when there's 5 or more quotes nested

Next year(on this day), MS should randomly picked up guys and appoint 'em staff and have fun. For a day, let them face a heat of queries the people boulder on table. Even taking positions of Mods. Wouldn't be cool?

01.04.2014 - 13:36 Written by Bad English on 01.04.2014 at 12:52 First of all you don't have the permissions to edit other user's posts, and second of all you don't even know how to edit your own. I had to clean up that Sonata Arctica album thread no thanks to you. You ended up involved in a quote train that spanned almost an entire page.
