While it might be flattering to read "this roxorz" and a 4.5, it is not really very helpful. Tell the designer why. Tell them what you liked and why you are giving the score. They haven't been lazy designing so they do not deserve laziness when being reviewed. They have gone to the effort to make the thing so the least people could do is put some effort into reviewing them. That way everybody wins.
Also, we had one case where someone posted a comment because they hadn't finished the scenario at the time, yet scored it with a 1. Again, this is extremely unfair and insulting to the time the designer has taken and has an equally unfair effect on the scenario's final score. Imagine how you would feel if someone told you they had only looked at it for 5 minutes and gave it a 1. You'd feel justifiably annoyed with them and ask them to at least finish it before giving out scores. So, if you only intend to comment, please post a comment, not a review. Leave the reviewing until you have finished playing it.
We have review guidelines for a reason. Please read them.
Failure to do so may result in a warning or being banned from submitting and reviewing. The downloads section is like the forums - there are penalties for abusing it. So don't do it.
Thank you.
