I note that some of my reviews are listed as "rating only" - this is incorrect - I always write a review - sometimes it appears that the wording gets lost - and you can't go back and add a review becuase you're locked out having given a rating already - it's really annoying. Anyone know why? |

It is possible that an admin may have deleted your written review if it violated one of the rules of the site in regards to what is permitted in a review. However, if this were the case, they would probably have sent you a message asking you to fix your review accordingly. And generally they just delete the violating comments, not the entire review. I have no insight as to whether this is the case or not. If you didn't receive a message from an admin, then this probably isn't the case. -------------

Hmm. Curious.
The last rating you submitted was for Blackfield II this afternoon - the records show no review for this and no modifcation. Did you submit a review for this?
The three other "ratings only" that show on your review list are...
http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=18286 - The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter
http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=12604 - Arriving Somewhere...
http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=14488 - Fear Of A Blank Planet ...again, these show no record of having been modified. ------------- What? |

Yeh - all these I put in reviews as well - and I definitely didn't say anything outrageous - most innocous (hmm a big word there!) infact... Is there any way you can go back and add a review to a "rating only" one? Thanks for answering... |

If your reviews contained less than 100 words, they count as ratings only. ------------- yeah |

You can edit your reviews - so I assume you can also edit empty ones too.
go to the Collabs page and login: http://www.progarchives.com/all_collaborators.asp - http://www.progarchives.com/all_collaborators.asp
thenn select "Edit Reviews" ... there should be an edit icon on the right of each review list entry ------------- What? |

Thanks Diaby - I didn't know the rule about 100 words - seems a little silly though - I sometimes quite like a quick review - some reviews are very long and very heavy, and I find I don't have time to read through it all. Thanks Dean also - I'll try what you suggest  |

I'm glad I could help. I had once the same problem, and although I knew about the rules, I sent a very short review 4 times. I always added something to it, but I never counted the words accurately.  Atkingani and Dean helped me a lot then.  ------------- yeah |
