About this Member

Update 28/10/2009 - Have just posted my first review in ages. I kinda lost the passion for writing reviews for a while due to the hectic nature of my personal and professional life. There just ain't enough hours in the day. I have, however, continued to read and rate and return all rates and will continue to do so, even if my posts become more sporadic.

Like a few others though I am a bit miffed at the number of people who churn without bothering to rate the reviews of others. I check people's profiles now and if they don't seem to make an effort and I don't think they deserve the 1.5p then I don't read their reviews. I apply this thinking to newbies and long-standing members alike. The only exception to this is if someone (regardless of their rating history) rates one of my reviews as I always return ALL rates and do so indiscriminately. Again this comes down to what I consider vital - politeness and the building and maintaining of trust within the dooyoo community. As a result, if you yourself are a good dooyooer then I am a dooyoo member who you can be guaranteed to make a fair few 1.5 pences out of.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My policy is to return ALL rates. I will not post a new review until I happy I am up to date with returning your rates. I will always return rates in AT LEAST an equal measure as those I have received (i.e you rate 2 of mine and I will rate AT LEAST 2 of yours, you rate 8 of mine and I will rate AT LEAST 8 of yours). This means that even if someone has rated all of my reviews (68 at the time of writing this message) then I am more than happy to sit down for an hour or 2 and genuinely read the whole review, digest and give an honest rating for at least 68 reviews if someone has that many reviews under their belt. This is something I feel strongly about as it helps build good rapport and trust.

I will NEVER revenge rate and if anyone thinks I have missed them whilst I've been returning rates then please do let me know, if nothing else it will be nice to have contact with other dooyoo members anyway :)

Best wishes to all dooyoo members.

p.s. I am also collecting Coke Zone points from Coca-Cola, if anybody has any spare codes they can throw them my way. Apologies if this is inappropriate :)
