I have traded here and had this as my homepage since I joined. However, the quality of reviews is getting pathetic.

I am getting more and more disgusted with these reviews. I come here for reviews about the Video, Audio, and Special Features. Let us make our own opinions on the movie. These guys are turning into Critics more than advisers.

The purely negative reviews about the movie itself taint the Video and Audio quality reviews because they fill every gap with some quip about how terrible the movie was.

This is becoming more and more frequent.

Just my opinion. ]]> Feedback igotdvds http://forums.highdefdigest.com/feedback/95826-purely-negative-movie-reviews.html 8 Reviews Thursday??!! http://forums.highdefdigest.com/feedback/95795-8-reviews-thursday.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 06:25:44 GMT man i gotta hand it to you guys, how'd it go from an average of 2 to 8? ]]> Feedback BostonMA http://forums.highdefdigest.com/feedback/95795-8-reviews-thursday.html Is there a place that has the rules of this site in French? http://forums.highdefdigest.com/feedback/95717-there-place-has-rules-site-french.html Wed, 18 Nov 2009 20:35:15 GMT I was wondering if the rules in this site are also in French? * I ask because many words in the rules are not in the English dictionary!

* I ask because many words in the rules are not in the English dictionary!
Example: Spamming, Pimping, etc.

Don't get me wrong, I do speak & understand English, but I'm not up to date like you guys. And before someone tell me I'm wrong, I like to know & understand better. Makes any sense?

The behavior of several (a small number) of members on this site recently has grown to proportions that have me wondering about stricter enforcement of existing rules, or a change to those in place, to address the attacks on a couple of reviewers.

Anyone who has been frequenting the blu-ray forums recently has come across numerous derailed review threads in which a handful of members have continued to post personal issues with a couple of reviewers. Many of these posts seem to not only personally attack the reviewer, but also serve to derail thread after thread talking about a TF2 or GI Joe review in a Star Trek thread for example.

For all I know, our trusted mod team has been addressing the issues behind the scenes (I suspect this to be the case), but if nothing else I thought this thread could serve purpose in letting the reviewers we appreciate know that a majority of the members here appreciate their efforts regardless of our agreement/disagreement with specific opinions, and to make it clear as a community that those members who wish to attack their hard work are not appreciated.

Unfortunately, not wanting them doesn't mean that they don't slip through at times.

To get rid of these ads, we need the help of our forum members and their understanding that it may take a couple of days to get rid of an ad once it is reported, but it is certainly not something wanted on this site by members, or the owners.

My understanding is that the best way to get rid of a pop-up or exploding ad is by sending in the link that you get taken to by clicking on the exploding ad. While this requires you to click the darn thing, it gives HDD the best opportunity to ensure that ad can be blocked in the future.

The best advice came from Attebery...

It's unfortunate that some advertisers think that because they have found a way to go beyond the boxes they are given, that they use that to disrupt the forums which everyone here enjoys and we want to ensure that those ads do get removed right away, so member help is vital to getting them removed. ]]> Feedback AV_Integrated http://forums.highdefdigest.com/feedback/95059-exploding-ads-please-report.html My Post Tally has been halted http://forums.highdefdigest.com/feedback/94913-my-post-tally-has-been-halted.html Tue, 03 Nov 2009 15:33:29 GMT hey hdd moderators, i've realized that my post count to the left of my profile has stopped at 2,330. i tested it in either the nba or nfl thread in the water cooler but typing quick random letters to make a post and it wasn't counted. i think i've been on 2330 for a day or so now. any thoughts on what the problem might be? ]]> Feedback BostonMA http://forums.highdefdigest.com/feedback/94913-my-post-tally-has-been-halted.html Off-site linking information! http://forums.highdefdigest.com/feedback/94792-off-site-linking-information.html Sun, 01 Nov 2009 03:36:33 GMT The recently implemented off-site linking rule has been temporarily reversed.

The mod team are currently reviewing options on how best to address this issue and expect to clarify any changes within the next few days.

Worth noting is that our review team works diligently to deliver compelling reviews that are in-depth and thorough for our members. While we are an open community that promotes discussion, I want to remind you that attacking reviewers is against the rules. Therefore our existing rules will continue to be enforced.

I thought it was one of those work from home scams to start with, and the site does seem to bear some resemblance to those sites, using the same "as seen on ... " text with various news station logos, the way comments have been closed due to server overload & the way all the links at the top of the page (actually, -every- link on the page) go to the same sign up form ... alarm bells are ringing ...

Hopefully the ad's gone from here already ...

Oh, there it is again, "Woman gets $12,688 cheque from government", I guess it could be legit, I've got my doubts though. ]]> Feedback holsty101 http://forums.highdefdigest.com/feedback/94749-i-think-you-may-inadvertantly-i-hope-advertising-scam.html American Cancer Rollover Ad http://forums.highdefdigest.com/feedback/94714-american-cancer-rollover-ad.html Fri, 30 Oct 2009 15:03:53 GMT on the main page. tried to click on the forums tab, but got sent to some other site due to expanding ad. :mad: frustrating. on the main page.
