Good stuff Alan! Reading through 80 reviews in 3 days isn't too shabby, thanks for your efforts as well.

As I told Alan, I'm pretty excited about this and I think this is a great idea.

Our goal is to have the "Add" button out by this coming Thursday... It's a bit of a strech as we have other things we are working on but hopefully things will go well.

Keep it up guys!! DON'T STOP NOW!

Is it Thursday yet?

We are working hard to have it avail tomorrow... As simple as it may sound - it actually is quite complicated.

I still believe we will release it tomorrow but it will be considered BETA and accordingly, I am thinking we are going to give access to it only to the Reviewers to keep things controlled. If we see it works well, then next week we could broaden the group that gets to add products. If we see it creates problems - we shall fix those and then re-try. Stay tuned.

yes it's still thursdat but.....hurry man lol
It'd be cool if we could add sound samples too !
HURRY MAN lol

I can see a conflict with it if two or more people are trying to add the same item, but naming it differently. It might be best to make it so the admin has to approve an add before it actually shows up in the list so there won't be duplicates of the same thing.

[6fingers]

why not duplicates with different opinions?
It'd be even better cause nobody has the same ears.A few different reviews of the same product.This will only prooves that reviews is good for building up an opinion but not as a 100% thing cause people listen to things in different ways.

[courtney2018]

Different opinions are fine. I'm talking about duplicates of the same product. Like, you wouldn't want 3 people adding the same product under slightly different names. That would give you 3 listings for the same product with opinions probably under each. I think it would be better if we just submitted the product to be added and then let the admin decide how it's to be named in the list.

I see and agreed.
We should use produts names as reviews names then alan woulld just add a number in the name like=

peavey 5150
peavey 5150-2
peavey 5150-3

Simple but it works.
