I need more than 400 words to give a good Review

[Andrew Turner]

Gary and Vic, I need more than 400 words to give a solid review of a product--any way of upping the word count, or is it a space issue?

Just post 2 back to back.

Or, edit yourself or have a buddy do it. I really don't need to read more than 400 words to get the idea of a product that someone reviewed.

You sound like my editor. "Andrew, I understood your point by the middle of page 2, please cut the remaining 35 pages..."

That's pretty much the goal here—and I think you may be the first person who has expressed an issue with the limit. Note that we prevent you from posting multiple reviews of the same product intentionally, and we also prevent you from using aliases to post reviews—we're trying hard to encourage people to post one single concise review. So going through the effort of bypassing all that was not appreciated.

Further, providing two different ratings is confusing at best. Please edit one of your reviews and let us know which one we should take down.

Vic,

My very sincere apologies, I meant no harm. I have edited the posting under my name, and hope you will remove the topmost post written under the name Renrut Werdna. Again, lesson learned, and I extend my apologies for mucking with the system.

I should mention that my hubris is now chagrin, and I am confident I need less than 400 words to write a good review... :\

No worries. Thanks for fixing it.
