Just a few things I have been wondering about and some observations.
Take the hall of fame for example. It supposedly can change any time. Okay now these are supposed to be the most popular reviewers.
Some hardly write and one hasnt written in ages but yet I dont see them change. Yes these people write good reviews and all are on my trusted list but I think other people should have a chance to be there also. I know I am there and have not figured out as of yet why as I dont get nearly as many reads as some that arent there so what does MS mean by popular?
I think every one by now knows how to make star writer. I didnt have a clue and didnt even know that I was one until some one wrote and mentioned it to me.
Leaving comments are helpful and I dont always leave them. Some times it is a lack of time and others because I really have nothing to comment on that hasnt already been said before.
I try to add new people each week to my circle of friends but sometimes I cant find any one new to add. So many join and then never write anything so they must have joined just to earn points reading others. Give writing a try. I feel any one can write. Just write the way you would talk to a friend over a cup of coffee has always been my policy.
I do think we need a lot more products to write about and am always glad to see some thing new as some times I get close to running out of things to write.
I dont do book reviews as a rule or movies and not many on music although I read a lot and music is my favorite thing and I do watch movies but I know from past experience I do not write well in these categories so I stay away from them if I possibly can.
I would like to thank all my readers who put up with my babbling some times, knowing I am not in top form some days.
I would also like to congradulate all the great writers on this site. I love them all. I do of course have a big bunch of favorites but am not going to list them as I know I will forget and leave some one out.
What I like most about this site is every one is so friendly and for the most part very polite and considerate of others.
A special thanks to all you ex themestream people who have joined me here. Its like having part of my family back.
I also must thank the staff for being right on top of things and handling problems right away.
My advice to all is just be yourself and write natural the way you would talk, write on a variety of things, read what others write and keep up the good work.
