    They e-mailed me stating it was over this review and another one, were i quoted some of the song lyrics, and said how they were repetitive and drove me crazy. In one track I said that this guy obviously has a bum fetish and needs to get some other lyrics involved... thats when my rating dropped lol... maybe my sense of humour is bad! I always write at least 3 lines as well, sometimes i write on notepad things i feel whilst listening to the introduction? I just think its a dig at my scouting reviewing skills, and i don't like being slated for simply giving my view.... they need to accept everyones tastes are different, we aren't all robots!!! Our accurancy is bound to be a bit off!!!!

    Ohhh i did say one track was absolutely crap whilst also describing how it was crap! Like weak lyrics and vocals along with off-beat playing instruments, those are the only things i can really think off that ive know is probably a bit 'in breach of terms and conditions'................

  • omg just logged on to slp and my rating has dropped from 4* down to 2* and will not go back up :(

  • i've been a two star all day - i have a funny feeling they've also expanded the spread algorithm to make it more difficult to maintain higher stars.
  • omg now they have dropped me down to 1*, any advice as to how i can get back up, ive been writing 4 lines per review, do you think thats too much?

    I think it's a way of STP saving money, and getting rid off a few people who just do it because they get paid too do it...

    I wouldn't take it to hard that your accurancy or ranking/rating is poor just STP being mean!

    I've been on mostly two stars all day. I briefly went up to three but literally just for one track and am now rigidly stuck on two again. I have a feeling that Jason is probably right about the spread algorithm as my accuracy is taking huge jumps - mostly downwards!

    Vicky - I usually do 3-4 lines (5 lines from time to time) too.

    not enough really - you can ask how to get back up a star but it hasn't changed. you still have to keep the spread, it's just been made harder to do. but with £6 quid in vouchers you've got plenty to invest though !

    i think that's part of the reason as well - i think once things settle down, it might change again.
  • will have a go investing now,
