I wasn't a fan of that approach.

My posts in that forum can probably be counted on the fingers of one 
hand. When I saw critical posts - and they seemed to be the majority by 
far - I would go to the reviewers site and wonder just who gave them the 
big pedestal from where they gave their opinions.

I've seen that "What do you think ? :)" posts, and the replies sometimes 
.... very bad form. Maybe some people use it to proverbially 'kick the 
cat'. But then you'll always have the reviewers with the mindset that 
"it'll do you good you know".

This is why I stay away: I am not qualified in any way shape or form to 
review, I have never submitted my site to be reviewed and some of the 
things that actually are said in there I have a problem with. Out of 
sight, out of mind.
