I was hoping another mod could look at my last 2 reviews and give me premium access credit. Soumanlike reviewed both, and while I agreed with him on the first one about missing info and I corrected it, the second one was spot on. I put the date as "late December" and he said no PA because it happened more than 30 days ago. That's mathematically impossible

I messaged him back and asked if this was just a mistake on his part, but no response. My appreciation to whom ever can help out

No mistake sir. We provide the outline you fill in the blanks, that means putting accurate information for our readers to be informed. It's not that difficult to list narrow down a date, "Late December" could mean December 2012, 2011, etc.

Our reason for being a bit strict on this is to provide our members as best information they can get, in exchange we reward you with Premium Access credit. Keep in mind some of our guys are lurkers and don't know the full features of the board so a generic term or time can be confusing for them......that's also a reasons we get bumped reviews from years ago.

My apologies then. It never crossed my mind that someone would think the review was from years gone by. Is there a way to edit my review to show the date of 12/29/2013? I think my confusion came from the review that I dated as "this week" a while ago. I guess since there was a date on the review then it was clearer what "this week" meant. I shall from this point forward just use standard date format.

Unfortunately sir you only get an hour to edit any postings you make, after that the staff members are the only ones who can make any changes for you. Also keep in mind that because other reviews maybe be vague on the date and use generic terms such as "this week" does not mean the person received credit for the review.

It was I that that used that term, and I did receive credit for it. It's all good though. No big deal. I will ensure that my next review is spot on perfect and shall do my best to avoid further mistakes. Thanks anyway!
