About this Member

**Hysterical Dooyoo Campaign Of the Week/Month/Year**

1 in 4 reviews on this site is written in the Food and Drink category. Dooyoo members write twice as many food reviews as any other category on the site.

Until the Dooyoo team stops paying people 50p to write rubbish about rubbish (very often paying them MORE than the original product cost) this site can never be taken seriously as a genuine consumer portal.

Normal consumers don't spend their time reading reviews about food. Sorry - it's a fact!

If we want this community to thrive, we need to get that 50p payment taken off the Food and Drink category.

*********************************************

Hey! I'm Phil and I'm generally quite odd. I'm also the co-guide for Music, which doesn't mean I'm important or anything, but does mean that if you need any help with the category I might be able to help. Feel free to leave me a message.

I can't say that I'm a music academic but I know what I like and I like what I know and I love reading and learning about new music. I'm also not one for musical snobbery (as evidenced by my personal tastes, ahem) so it's your writing that will impress me, not your choice of subject matter. Reviews that focus on every track on an album individually don't generally fall into the 'impressive' category for me, but that doesn't mean they can't be very useful if they're done very well.

I've decided not to leave comments explaining ratings on reviews. If you'd like me to explain something about a rating that I have left, then please send me a private message and I'll do my best to explain. A wise person once said that 'feedback is a gift', but on Dooyoo, this generally only applies on request.

When rating reviews, please don't be intimidated by members who react very badly to anything less than a very useful rating. These hysterical reactions are, thankfully, very few and far between and above all else, this should be a community that thrives on interaction and feedback. The Dooyoo team recently advised us that 95% of reviews here are being rated very useful, which just can't be right, and a more honest, realistic approach to rating is required.

If you're new to Dooyoo, can I recommend that you spend a little time reading around and seeing what other writers have to say? It might give you a few ideas about how to get the most out of the site and (trust me), you'll soon be glad you did.
