NO If u think I m gonna rate any reveiwer as Worst reviewer Pls dont Read this review any further.
I'm just gonna speak my views on this topic.So I thought this is the best way to put my views against a topic under the same head.I hope U'll got what I meant to say. Well if u still didnt get it read further U will understand
First of all Let me just tell U what made me write this review.
I was just going thru the BEST debut reviewers list .JUST TO FIND THAT MY NAME WAS NOT THERE.That made be a bit sad.Just Kidding I Dont deserve to be there as I m just a novice in writing.
But what I found was a bit shocking.I read a reviwer who had written just 6 reviews and was able to write on this topic ( FIVE WORST REVIEWERS) I know It does not require to write reviews to rate reviewers But still first One has to be a good reviewer himself/herself to write about such topics.
And what was more shocking was, that was the review which made the reviewer to Reach into the BEST DEBUT REVIEWERS List.IF U think thats what made me write this review then U cant be wholly wrong coz these r the topics read by many reviewers.But If u ask me Honestly I felt really bad reading that review and thats what made me write this review.
Now let me not drag this too much and let me not write about why I felt that Review was Not a healthy one.The answer is quite evident . The topic of the review makes reviewers to just Go on writing whatver they feel and start mudslinging.
So let me be a bit critical on this TOPIC.
The reasons WHY I hate this topic .
1) It makes A reviewer curb his vision and speak about it when someone rates him/her Bad for it.
2) This doesnt serve the very purpose why Mouth shut.com has started this site.
3) It just sends negative vibes amongst MS members if not taken in a healthy way
4) A reviewer may list his/her WORST 5but that may lead to a new member not to seriously read those MS members review and trust that member.
5) This Topic may be used by some members to gain cheap PUBLICITY.
The list is long. let me cut short it here.
Now WhY do I feel this topic is not necessary.The reasons are.
1) When One does not like a members review he/she can very well Comment on that review.Thank MS site they have provided this option of comment.
2) Commenting Can be helpful for the member as he can know what his limitations are and can work on it. In this way he/she wont be made a public figure of criticism.
3) There is also an option called RATING, Once again thank the MS site for this option So those who feel that the review is a WORST review he / she can rate it NOT USEFUL and also add comments If He/ she feels so strong about it.
4) The Last but not the least the member can just ignore the review and thus hurt no one.
5) I said last but not the least just coz therez also an option called distrust.BUT to be honest I just dont feel its at all required. Coz WHy shud someone distrust when he/ she can simply ignore the review. Trust is good to show BUT distrust is a negative feeling and that should not be there in a site, the basis of which is to put forth one's view as well as read others view and know what others have to say and not distrust someone. Its not a spam mail which u get in ur junk mail box that u need to distrust that member.
I also have a suggestion for MS site I know this is off the topic But when my whole review is OFF topic why shud'nt this be present. I would take this opportunity to put forth my suggestion.The suggestion which I want to give MS site is.
The Ratings shud be not just limited to Very useful, Useful, Somewhat Useful & Not Useful.But there shud be a few more added to the list like. FUnny, Interesting, Informative, OffensiveAnd also One more which everyone would like to rate this review of mine YES its OFF TOPIC.
Hope I m not rated in the TOP WORST REVIEWERS LIST after this review.
ANY COMMENTS ARE WELCOME AS WELL AS ANY RATINGS.
That would really help me improve my writing skills So pls take some pains to comment.
