I wrote a review for demolition city one day. I ended up recieving a merit for it. The 2 people after me said get a life dont write 10 sentences. then one person left a comment on my profile saying: Stop looking at the bad side of games just play them and enjoy like your supposed to

I've seen lots of posts like this after i see a merit worthy review. It seems like no one appreciates giving detail in a review

If you received a merit obviously someone appreciated it. There are always going to be people who don't know anything about AG though and are just here to spam and say "nice game!!".

They're just jealous.

Or, you could just as I do, stop caring on what other people think of you.

Yeah, it doesn't matter what the members think, as long as the game creator sees it. That's what it's all about. It helps the creator to see the glitches, flaws, bad parts of the game, etc. So ignore the spammers, their opinions mean nothing. The only opinion that counts is the one that created the game.

It happens. Like they're piffling comments or any comments matter. Do as you do how you do it. **** what anyone thinks.

Don't care about what they say, the important thing is that you are proud of earning a merit of writing a good game review, cause that means that you may help the game developer or an other player to enjoy more the game.

It doesn't matter. Good reviews are what this website needs and of course it does help the developers if they choose to read it.

However I've had a merit-worthy comment floating around for like a month on what was a new game on the front page... haven't seen any merits added on that game -.- lol but it doesn't matter.

Strange, I would guess they don't come in the forums much. I don't look at the comments after my longer reviews (I might have to start now though >.&gt. Remember that the purpose of a comment is to give feedback to the people who made the game. The more detail you put in the more it helps them improve future games.

I have also to say that though I have earned 2 merits for games the best moment was when a game developer answered to my comment and he said that he was glad that I liked the game. So writing good reviews is wonderful.

I left a comment, which later got a merit, and the person after me wrote "I hate people who write long comments".

Writing good reviews is worth it, it helps the developer and it's what ag is looking for. Just flag anybody who leaves stupid comments like that.

Well its better than just saying "didn't like it 2.5/10" at least you let the guy who made the game know what to improve on

I have experienced the same thing.

Mostly, the people who say that are the ones who are foolish or incapable of writing a merit worthy comment themselves. Why are they insulting you over ten sentences? Some people write reviews of over six hundred words.

Just, ignore. You did a good job anyway, since you actually got rewarded with a merit.

Hmmm... I find a lot of people who write on the comments to be mostly annoying and immature anyway. So why let people who are immature bother you? They write things like "GAY" and "STUPID GAME" all the time.

yeah its mostly noobs that leave 1 sentence comments. It is really stupid. And do you think the creator of the game sees the merit or Carlie or Strop or someone like them?

Most likely a moderator/admin. Though the creator of Battle Gear actually saw the comment I made. It didn't get a merit, (because Zophia said it wouldn't because I posted it in a thread and she found it there) but the creator of the game actually replied to me on my profile.
