Hi JoJoGold

I understand your pain. Like you, I always respond to reviews whether favourable or not.

I do get responses to reviews I send, but not always. I am known for my detailed in-depth reviews which take time to do and I have come to the conclusion there are some members on this site who don't actually want critiques of their work, only praise.

I get that some people may be offline for a while and haven't picked up their e-mails and then there are, it has to be said, some extremely entitled and ungrateful members who probably take it for granted they'll get reviews and don't bother to send thank yous because why should they, especially if you didn't award their piece 5 stars?

I've made a list of non-responders and I check that before I do reviews. I won't review those people again.

But hey, chin up, the rest of us appreciate you even if those non-responding review recipients don't.
