I too regret to inform that between my two jobs among other things I have little free time to review anything. If you're absolutely desperate for reviewers I might be able to squeeze in a few every now and then. Although I'm a little more focused on getting everything rewritten so more people can enjoy my material. It's been a long time since this topic was posted on which makes me believe the idea was abandoned. I think it could really bring up motivation. The remaining problem is finding honest and ethical people to do the reviews. They need to be trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly and all of the other Boy Scout things.
Most, scratch that, a majority of people here are newbies. I'm one of the oldest members who still hangs out here. Now if we really want to put this review crew into motion we'd need volunteers and a rating system. Like point values maybe similar to games on gamefaqs.com or example. Or if you prefer do it based on the rating itself. A+ down to F, 0 up to 100 or 10 down to 0 with decimal values put in as well. I also think more comments on author's pages would also assist in having writers write more. As mentioned in another post, the comments are waiting to be updated. Da Wolfe is probably more concerned with updating new material as opposed to the comments. This is okay since I feel its the right decision.
After all, what he says goes. Since at least 1 new person seems to make an account on this board I'm hoping that more and more authors will join up. Everyone has a different style and every reader has different preferences. And as side note, in case anyone doesn't get the joke I mentioned in the first post of this topic, just tell me and I'll inform you all what it is. Although I'll assume that many already figured it out.
