I'm sorry....what are your concerns regarding the review you received?

You may not agree with the review, but that's just kinda the way it goes. Sometimes you get something good from a review, and sometimes you get a review you chuck out. However, it's informative: if you get several reviews that state the same thing, maybe what you wrote isn't what you thought. That's not the case here, at least, not yet. Just take it for a grain of salt and file it away to look at later (or not). No need to rant about it.

If you're concerned about the anonymous review - don't be. Some people who have been here awhile will do anonymous reviews for a variety of reasons. My understanding is that veterans who are well-known sometimes want to share without the recognition that accompanies the review, or other community issues, or whatnot. So don't worry about that so much.

If you're concerned about the Good Deeds Get CASH!" thing at the bottom, don't be. That's just a little contest that rewards people who do reviews. I mark all of my reviews to be entered into this contest, though I've never won. It's not a hit against the reviewer or you.

To be completely honest, you received a VERY good review. Someone obviously took the time to read your work and contemplate it. I can see how you might find this review to not be very helpful, but that doesn't negate the fact that someone spent time on it and shared their thoughts with you. Try to keep that in mind. I've certainly received reviews that I didn't agree with and ones that say a whole lot but don't help me at all. <shrug> It can be frustrating, of course.

I hope that helps clear some stuff up. Please don't hesitate to ask if you have any more questions or concerns. *Smile*
