"Member Voice", eh? A Ciao member gets "interviewed" by Ciao and gets a nice little spot on the newsletter. Not a bad idea, really. But hang on... they don't have a profile picture. You can't even get featured on the front page of Ciao without a profile picture, so how was this young man hand picked from the crowd? It's because he does/did "video reviews". Just as well, really because the member's reviews are... ummm... poor (not my opinion... the opinion ...

Do you politely ignore it, read the review, but say that asking for reads is not a polite thing to do on a review site, or read it and move on, or what ? If it's a new person I think there is an element of "ignorance" and I would read their review, although not feel obligated to, then explaining to them in guestbook that it is frowned upon to ask for reads.

I went on my profile this morning having put a review up the night before, only to be met by a series of blank spaces where it should be - reads, rates, comments and links seemingly erased. Anyone know whats going on?
