low_rider's Profile
I am 22, recently graduated from York and married to the woman I met on my Fresher's Week since this August. I haven't been around much on Dooyoo lately but will be trying to get on a bit more - finances are tight and the extra cash will come in handy for a few luxury items!
I try to rate back whenever possible, but am not on that much so apologies if I do not get back to you that quickly. If you feel like I owe you some rates, send me a private message.
I love receiving comments, and will always rate back if I get a comment from you!
Thanks very much for everyone who has nominated me. Two crowns so far! Yay!

I would like the Crown awarding system to be improved. Dooyoo is a peer reviewed site, and if a number of Dooyooers nominate an article for a Crown then it should receive one. I am sure that I am not alone in feeling that there are several of my reviews that probably did deserve a crown (such as my review on the Powers W3 woodnailer - I mean, loads of opinion, knowledge, and comparisons to its main competitor - what more do you need to make a completely informed buying opinion?!), and the comments left indicated a number of people also thought so.
Apparently Dooyoo decide who will get Crowns, as they claim that is the only way to do it objectively, but I am sure there is still some abuse in this system, where certain members (who do admittedly write good reviews) seem to get a disproportionate amount of crowns, even for reviews that are just good, rather than their normal excellent standards.
Essentially what I would like is that when a review receives a number of nominations, but Dooyoo do not award a Crown, Dooyoo should explain why they feel it does not deserve a Crown. It is the only way to keep the system transparent and fair.
If you feel very strongly on this please drop me a message, as it would be interesting to know if people agree that there is indeed something rotten in the Crown state of Dooyoo, or if I am just a lone nutter.
