About this Member

dooyoo, I can't be the only one who didn't understand the product suggestion changes you made last month. It's too stupid to be true. It's one thing to encourage particular submissions, or to prioritise particular categories, but this.... I'm outraged.

Please change the system back, so those of us who regularly get to read and review new books can share our reviews with dooyoo. It's not just my own reviews, I really enjoy reading other people's and think this will discourage many of those who write about newer books or books that haven't been reviewed 20 times already. I'm sure the same will happen with other categories - refusing new product suggestions from members will leave us with fewer and poorer reviews. You make it so hard to jump through hoops to earn our pittance as it is.

Please think again about this one.

Dooyooers, if you think this change is wrong, please let dooyoo know.
