Just curious what the current opinion is on this

A few weeks ago, I came across a website that looked decent enough and had a forum for website reviews. I have been across website review forums before and they are typically spam and people wanting opinions on their template sites.

I decided to take the plunge and went ahead and posted my url. The feedback I recieved was some of the best I have ever had. I have changed so many things already and now have a list of new things I am going to do. I have been returning the favor and spending the last few weeks reviewing others websites. It's actually been quite fun.

I can only imagine that the list of reasons why WW doesn't want to have a review forum is very long. I know this is probably a dead horse, but I think if their was a forum where you could submit your website and it was an original worthwhile design it would be posted anonymously. Anonymous so people don't trash your website because you pissed them off in the forums or steal your website ideas because you report record profits.

Since it's addressed in item # 21 of the TOS, I doubt that reviews will be happening anytime soon.

Here is an interesting thread from 2005 on site reviews, with a couple of very interesting posts from createErrorMsg and DaveAtIFG. It's worth a read.

Well, that about covers it.

Still though, after the great help I recieved from my recent site reviews. I would be willing to pay $x00.00 amount of dollars to get my site reviewed anonymously by the members of this forum. I couldn't think of a better way to invest my money.

Only allow members with 500+ posts to add a website or review one. Someone cheats, take their money and delete their account. I know i'm wasting my time, but it sure would be money well spent.
