Yay semantics!!!

Seriously, There would be far less conflicts between connotation and denotation if we either (A) gave free lobotomies with membership or (B) changed the name of the process to Review. The term Review holds far less of a sense of individualism and entitlement to having one's own ideas in the way of connotative meaning.

Maybe leave in the quick comments and remove the opinions so people don't get attached to the numbers. :P

We all know this will never happen.

And while we're at it, drop the star scale. Let all AMVs be created equal. 8-)

anything from a Quick Comment to Opinion Scores and a "." to a long detailed description of my video ripped to pieces, or maybe a 10 page ass kissing.. lol. they come in all sorts of forms..

so when are they going to write the code that we can reply to Quick Comments already???
What do you view as a truly valuble opinion for an amv?
something that tells me something NEW, not the same re-hashed stuff over and over again. I have a list on my profile of the things I have heard too much. its funny to have 50 opinions on one video and atleast 1/2 say one thing the other 1/2 say the other thing lol. it gets old... and I pick and choose the opinions I leave public for a reason ie: most useful.
Do you accept the opinion "It sucked?" over the 500 word essay on your editing? or vice versa?
it depends on who its comming from, if its a person who knows more than me then I would hope that they would put less "it sucked" and more of "heres how you can improve"... but if its some random person who just wants to shoot their mouth off, probably not.

But I like the numbers! :( :( :( Not so much for my own ego, but having them there significantly lowers the margin of utter crap that I end up downloading. If a persons numbers are all in the periwinkle then forget about it!
