[QUOTE="JimInks, post: 349303, member: 2673"] I agree with your first paragraph on all counts. I also think there's people who have grudges against some tobaccos, and will downgrade anyone who positively reviews something they hate. I've seen a couple of tobaccos where all the 3 and 4 reviews are given an "unhelpful" nod, but the two or three one star reviews were given positive nods. I've seen the reverse, too. Childish! Unnecessary! And awarding badges... well, who needs them except for those lacking in self esteem? I totally agree with your second and third paragraphs, too. I write reviews because I enjoy it, and like to compare/contrast my impressions with others. Writing helpful reviews gives back to the community, and we both have seen numerous people who care more about racking up a review total than they care about being honest. Well, maybe I'm taking it a little too seriously, but only because I want good info out there without the stain of popularity contests. [/QUOTE]
