Azn.
11.21.13 | what are the reqs for contrib? |
conesmoke
11.21.13 | you'd make a good contrib mongman. go for it. |
Parallels
11.21.13 | As a contrib you'd get to rate albums like a boss, down to the 0.1, rather than by 0.5, right? |
Brostep
11.21.13 | No, unfortunately that's only for staff. And basically contrib requirements are write like a few times a month (once minimum) and more importantly write well |
Necrotica
11.21.13 | Yeah, contribs used to be able to, but the privilege got taken away. Curiously, my Waking the Cadaver 0.5 remains |
Mongi123
11.21.13 | I try to write once a week so I'm good there. And thanks cones!
Any reason why the .1 thing was taken away? |

Parallels
11.21.13 | "And basically contrib requirements are write like a few times a month (once minimum) and more importantly write well"
From what you can remember, what are the other rules? |
conesmoke
11.21.13 | another role is informing new sputters that they're being trolled if you see this happening, and not to take offense as it's all objective. |
Parallels
11.21.13 | Can't tell if conesmoke is being sarcastic or encouraging about the "mentality inferred" comment. |

Well, I help users with reviews so at least I got 1 of those 2 things right |
tempest--
11.21.13 | tbh I don't think you'll get staff, Brendan. You're a good writer, but you just don't have the sort of charisma that most of the staff put in their reviews. Plus, you know, the banning, loss of title and OhCarrots account and everything lol.
Btw Jac should def be contrib and same with Robert Davis dude is the most overlooked reviewer on the site! |
Necrotica
11.21.13 | It always seems like you're one of the most critical people toward my writing though. I think my biggest issue personally is that I write way too fucking much. I need to take more breaks from reviewing so I can get fresher material |
Necrotica
11.21.13 | Plus,when I was trying to show more charisma earlier with reviews, people were telling me they were too personal and not professional enough so it was confusing to me |
Calc
11.21.13 | only person off the top of my head that deserves contrib is jac. |

Tyrannic

LEAAAVE BROOOOOO AAAALOOOOONNEEEEEEEEEEE
and you're**
hehe |
Necrotica
11.21.13 | I realized a lot of my shortcomings when I did the Deliverance review, so all of my reviews since then
have been my most focused and "different" reviews I've written so far. The reason I didn't have much
personality before was because I was dwelling too much on listless info and not enough on the big
picture |
Calc
11.21.13 | hehe i woulda changed that but than the formatting woulda been fuked. |

11.21.13 | I think I will apply.
I don't know that I have much of a chance though since I don't think I'm that great of a writer and I don't practice enough but I suppose we'll see.
Brendan since your ban you haven't made any missteps and the fact that tey reinstated you as contrib I think shows that they forgive what happened and believe that you can come away from it better and not mess up again. I'm sure they'll take your ban into consideration when they scan your application but I doubt they'll reject you because of it. From what I've read of yours you're a great writer I think you'll have just as good a chance as anyone. |
tempest--
11.21.13 | Nah, I didn't, I'll have to check it out. To say again though, I do think you're a good reviewer man, you definitely deserve the contrib status. |

I'll prob do some more reviews between now and January, which might boost my chances I guess. |

11.21.13 | Brostep tries new things with his writing-- that takes balls, whether or not he hits it out the park each time. He doesn't play it safe with his work, which makes me respect him more than most other contributors tbh |
Mongi123
11.21.13 | Is getting personal frowned upon with user reviews? I did that with one of my reviews and people didn't really like that. |

11.21.13 | Aww < 3 < 3 < 3 |

11.21.13 | Getting personal only works if approached a certain way, Mongli |
Mongi123
11.21.13 | Like how so? For future reference? |
Yuli
11.21.13 | Mmmm. Making it feel sincere yet not cliched, for starters. And second, making it help explain the album-- personal stuff absolutely has to add to the discussion of the album |
clercqie
11.21.13 | Like don't be mean and rip the other person apart. Plus, really back up your own claims if you want them to be taken seriously. |
Mongi123
11.21.13 | Hmmm maybe the second one is what I did wrong. Thanks Omaha |
FromDaHood
11.21.13 | I'd promote Point1, Pavelboca and maybe atrink if he's still here

11.21.13 | Hey Omaha, could you check my Rush review I just did by any chance? I went for a different approach than usual and I wanted to see how it went. Toxin. didn't like it much but some other people did, so I wanted to get a staff opinion. |
