wtf? so you're saying, if you're an author, u can't read any books? or a director, can't watch any movies?

u can read the reviews for inspiration or to draw ideas from, and if you're reading reviews of different karts, i can hardly see how it is plagiarism, "fool".

To write a film review you watch the film
To do a book review you read the book
To write a car review you drive the car

To write a review you have to have first hand experience of the item being reviewed.

Anything else in my opinion

(a) isn't your work
(b) is basically a review of others reviews

As part of my job I do articles and reviews of software and technologies, if I handed in a "review" of a product, with no first hand experience of it I would be fired. Anyone can copy and paste, or take and bend others words but in all truth it is not a review that you have written and therefore carries no weight.

I will only review something I have used myself otherwise it is plagiarism, if a copy it word for word, or selectively take information from another, it amounts to the same thing, and I am sure my boss would agree.

That said lighten up, this is in jest.......

Still means the same thing to me, what one person likes or feels comfy with is not the same for another person. Thats why you really need 1st hand experience....

 

Its more than just a plain old review. Just look at the plus points

1. Its eco friendly, if you print it, it wont use much paper.
2. Its even more eco friendly, as its so poor you wouldn't want to print it.
3. Its recyclable. This review, by just changing the card name can be re-used for another card review
4. Its smaller and quicker to read than other reviews. Good for those bite sized bits of info that busy on the go people need

Remember

Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle

Reduce - its only a small review
Reuse - It can easily be quoted on other web pages with little effort
Recycle - Usable with different carts

:yayds:

Be eco friendly - Do you really need to print this ? No really do you.... ?
