Topic: Review edits Posted: May 10 2006 at 01:00 |
Earlier, I penned this review: http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=77682
I came back a few minutes ago and noticed something odd.
"I feel like seasick just thinking about it. "
Originally, this said "puking", rather than the word in there that's very out of place now. I realize this is a family site, but come on. Is puking a swear now? Was I uninformed of this change?
Why was it edited out of my review?

That is an awkward change; it's not even a verb now. "Puking" is
a bit crude though. Perhaps regurgitating, vomiting, ralphing,
upchucking, barfing, spewing, or blowing chunks would be preferable.
Feeling a bit seasick myself, time to "feed the fish."

dagrush,
Edition was the way found to preserve your review from being deleted. In case you're not satisfied I can delete it allowing you to redo it being respectful with the artists and their works and also not trying to argue with other reviewers or to criticize their reviews, as required by a family site.
NB: the information (via mail or PM) about the edition was being prepared to be sent to you.

Sure, delete it. While you're at it, would it be possible to delete my 0 word reviews too? I'd like to give something slightly more concrete on those albums, particularly since I think I only did that on some of my favourites.
