Ok, with all the gripes about "my review got rejected" and "my review got edited" and all that, let's give some suggestions for writing reviews.
Stick to facts, try to leave out emotions. Ok, once in awhile, I throw in an emotional comment, like one park I stayed at in New Mexico had this WONDERFUL view, and I started the review out with WOW, WHAT A VIEW!!!
It's ok to mention that check in person was a bit rude or ugly to you, but then go on to say, "sites were (or weren't) level, bathrooms were (or weren't) clean, Sites had grass, gravel, hardtop. Great pet area, except it was near the propane station. RV Park had lovely flowers.....
Negative comments are ok in reviews, just stick to observations. "My sewer connection was full of bugs, so I had to ask to switch sites." (That happened to me once!) Or, "It rained and my site was full of puddles I had to jump over when I got out of my RV." (This isn't the park's fault, but could be a clue as to whether or not you would want to stay there when it rains.....)
Any other suggestions?
I love this site. I used to post on two other sites, but stopped, as I feel this one is the best. And, another RV Park Review site offered me 50 cents per review, and I sent in a bunch, but never followed up to get paid. What kind of upset me was when they wanted to copy all my reviews off this site and add them to their site, well..... I felt something was WRONG with that......

I couldn't agree more on the "stick to the facts" suggestion.
And I'm convinced that there's a special place in heaven for people who put in their reviews whether or not the showers have latch-able doors or just shower curtains. At least there should be such a place, imho.
Truly though, I wish that reviewers would keep the snark to a minimum.
Recently there was a unhappy reviewer who complained that the guy who helped them park "had only one tooth in his head". Good grief, Reviewer! This man was kind enough to HELP YOU and you see fit to make disparaging comments on his dental condition? That's just mean. Uff-da!
It's always the batteries!

Some time ago I started placing reviews in the manner of a list. I was asked to change the reviews to paragraphs because they were easier to read and understand. Now I will try to follow the rules so there is no problem for me.
Here is what I was trying to use to review campgrounds . I keep it in a the Notepad and just modify whatI want to say in the review. Now I just use it as a guide and write a paragraph. Again I am not bitching... Just saying it was what I though people were mainily intrested in.
Shore Services: 50amp, Sewer good, Water @ psi
AT&T Cell Phone:
Sprint Air Card:
Verizon Air Card:

To me this gives all the important information then at the end do a narritave about the flowers or bad rain days...

You have a good list. Sorry our review software is persnickety about lists. It does that to save space. Thanks for adjusting on your end.

Ok, with all the gripes about "my review got rejected" and "my review got edited" and all that, let's give some suggestions for writing reviews.
I suspect that the moderators reserve the right to edit or reject any review that doesn't meet the rules for submitting one or doesn't fit a basic criteria of being helpful information. I feel sure that we reviewers don't get to make the rules.
I like to read reviews that are well written with proper sentence structure, good grammar, and proper punctuation. I believe that is one of the Rules for Submitting a review that we all have to acknowledge before doing so.
Someone else posted a suggestion somewhere on the forum about doing a review that was a low rating for the campground. The suggestion was not to actually post until after they had gotten over their ranting and complaining stage. The cool down period allowed them to go back and write a much better, more civilized review even though the rating may not change.
When a review is written, it is important to remember that the purpose of a review is to help someone ELSE decide if they want to use the campground or not. Reviewer's should look past their own site at all of the campground facilities, amenities, and services and then report on those. They also should consider the different types of RVs that others might be using in the campground. A motor home owner needs to consider the pop-up user and vice versa. It's all about helping each other make a good decision. Some form of structure similar to TxBobCat's list could be helpful in doing that it.
The length of a review is something to consider. Cliff Note size reviews aren't very helpful and novel length is overdoing it. A Reader's Digest version, using proper English 101 techniques, is perhaps the more ideal length for a good review.

This is a very good point. Many times we get reviews where the reviewer has changed a lot of the check off items because the site they stayed at did not have these things. If there are 50 amp sites in the park, it should be checked as yes even if the reviewer's site only had 30 amps. Also a pool that is just closed for the winter is still a yes. Wi-fi that doesn't work well is still a yes. If these amenities were not available or did not work well when the reviewer was there, note of this should be made in the comments.

This is almost a rehash of a thread from earlier this year. It was titled "Consideration When Rating a Park", had 17 posts, and it's last entry was 7/20/12 under the RV Park Discussions section of the Forum. I almost posted a comment to that thread when several posters seemed to indicate that they only review parks from their myopic perspective - the only aspects of the park that are commented on are those facilities and amenities that are important to them. As indicated in this thread, that kind of review is often useless to many readers. Not saying anything about the pool, bathrooms, WIFI, etc. because you don't need/use them is information many potential customers want to know about. I could go on, but will refrain from doing so at this time.

Perhaps so, but if you haven't used them, and probably not even looked at them, how can you comment on them? We basically never use the bathhouse; for us, a major point of RVing is to have our own facilities to use (they may be dirty but at least it's our dirt). So I don't see how we could comment on the CG bathrooms.

Just to clarify: we do not expect reviewers to comment about a facility or amenity if they did not use it and have no knowledge of its quality. However, if there is a pool available (for instance), we do not want a reviewer to check "no" just because they did not use it.

When I go to a campground I will walk through the laundry and look at the facilities, and go through the restrooms and showers. I will then include them in my review even though I did not use them. When you make a review you can also select "did not use" which are not auto selected when the review screen is presented.
As said earlier there are two parts to a review. Information about the campground and facilities then personal comments about those facilities and your concerns positive or negative.
If you had a bad time at a campground and the facilities are very good I may not have a problem with a cranky employee or owner but I sure would like to know how good the facilities are.

I have a suggestion about the nightly rate that you enter in a review ...
Enter the normal rate the park normally charges, not what you paid as a result of your discounts or whatever. I may not have the same discounts you do, in which case the number you enter won't be useful to me.

And one more thought ...
I find it rather annoying when people fairly shout to "Stay away from such-and-such campground!"
Well, thanks but I'll make that decision myself. Just give the facts, please.

TXBobcat - I love your list. It makes a wonderful outline for writing a review and it keeps you from inserting too much emotional garbage.
Someone else mentioned they do a "walk-about" of the park so they can be better informed prior to writing their review. Hubby and I do this as well.
I was raised on some very LARGE recreational parks (Grand Canyon, Death Valley, Lake Powell, etc), as such I check certain things, knowing it is a good indication of how well the park is taken care of. Hubby is from the construction industry and as such he has his things he looks for as well. Before we (I) write a review we sit down together and figure out what we want to include.
Yes a number of my reviews have been deferred, not posted, changed, etc. I even received a very long winded email as to what I was doing wrong. Honestly I appreciate this admin's time. I am sure they are doing this on a volunteer basis as many forum admin's do, thus their time is just as precious as ours. So I will do my best to keep things short and to the point... If TXBobcat doesn't mind, I may borrow his list idea and use it as an outline for future reviews as I am sure there will be plenty more to come. We are spending at least the next year as full-timers.

A programming suggestion that might help. I did NOT know there was a forum attached to the review site until I "noticed" it across the top.
As it is required to become a member prior to posting a review, maybe have the system reload to the forum FAQ or something there abouts, letting new users know this site is more than just a review site. Honestly for me, had I known that, I would have taken A LOT of the advise to heart within these forums prior to writing a review. Especially now that you require 3 or more reviews prior to a review being posted.
I know how difficult changing html programming can be, however this maybe more helpful than costly...
Just an IMO suggestions....

Originating in the United States, the Chesapeake Bay Retriever is often referred to as the Chessie. An avid hunter of fowl on both land and water, this breed was the first retriever breed to be recognized by the American Kennel Club. Although not as well known today as the Golden or Labrador Retrievers, Chesapeake Bay Retrievers make a wonderful family and field companion.
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is the most rugged and powerful of the six retriever breeds. This breed is a true nature lover. They are alert, intelligent, courageous, and extremely versatile. The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is independent, tough, and possesses stoic determination. They are tenacious workers; bold and athletic.
Intensely loyal and deeply devoted, the Chesapeake Bay Retriever has a strong protective nature. This breed is friendly, loving, and affectionate. They do best in a home with older considerate children. They will generally get along with other dogs they have been raised with but have a tendency to be combative and aggressive with dogs they do not know. They do not do well with cats or other small household pets. This breed thrives on family interaction and will become destructive if ignored, lonely, or bored. The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is not recommended for the novice, apathetic, or sedentary owner.
This breed requires once a week brushing to remove dead hair. It is important to not over groom, as this will damage the coat. Bathing should only be done when absolutely necessary to preserve the integrity of the water repellant coat. The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is prone to such health issues as elbow and hip dysplasia, Von Willebrands Disease, PRA, and cataracts. They prefer cooler climates.
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is a double coat breed. The outer coat is dense, slightly wavy, short and harsh. The under coat is thick and wooly in texture. The coat is water repellant. The color of the coat comes in various shades of brown, red, and tan. This breed is an average shedder.
Slow to mature, willful, and stubborn, the Chesapeake Bay Retriever must have an experienced owner. Early socialization and obedience training are an absolute must. They do not respond to harsh or heavy-handed methods. Training must be done with firmness, fairness, patience, respect, and consistency. This breed displays talents in tracking, hunting, competitive obedience, schutzhund, field spots, and hunting.
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever requires daily vigorous exercise. They enjoy swimming and make excellent walking, jogging, and bicycling companions. This breed must have physical and mental stimulation. They are not suited for apartment or city dwelling. Chesapeake Bay Retrievers do best in a home where they can run and romp freely in a safely fenced area.
If you are looking for Chesapeake Bay Retriever puppies for sale from reputable Chesapeake Bay Retriever breeders or to adopt Chesapeake Bay Retrievers from a Chesapeake Bay Retriever rescue then make sure you understand as much about the dog breeds you are interested in as you can.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Focal Performance PC 165 by Buck Pomerantz Why replace your factory speakers? The speakers that originally came in your car were made from inexpensive materials, designed to create acceptable sound at the lowest possible cost to the manufacturer. If you love music, you deserve better. Name-brand aftermarket speakers deliver fuller, richer sound with considerably more detail and nuance, and they're capable of playing louder and cleaner than factory speakers. Connect new speakers to your factory radio and you'll get the best possible sound from your dealer-equipped system. Pair them up with a new car stereo for a level of enjoyment that can rival a high-fidelity home audio experience. If you're looking for more than just replacement speakers, Focal's Performance Series speakers let the music speak for itself, providing transparent reproduction for all your recordings and listening pleasures. This PC 165 6-3/4" speaker uses a lightweight, exceptionally rigid Polyglass cone in a sturdy frame to create accurate, richly-textured sound, whether played loud or soft. Advanced tweeter Focal brought some of their high-fidelity technology out of the studio and into your car with the Performance inverted dome tweeters. This technology results in wider dispersion and a higher frequency response, so you'll notice greater detail in the instruments and voices. Each tweeter features a built-in phase plug and wave guide, which act together to increase the power of high-frequency notes and improve the stereo soundstage. You can also tilt the tweeter for better imaging, a big help in vehicles where the speakers are not optimally placed. Technology that sounds like magic Focal applies molten glass microballs onto cellulose pulp to create their Polyglass cones, combining the crisp response of the rigid glass layer with the warm sound of a paper cone. The aluminum tweeter has been similarly treated with a softer, more easily damped material that makes the treble distinct without sounding harsh. You can expect superior performance from these speakers, whether you power them with a quality outboard amp or your car stereo. Note: Focal describes this model as a 6-1/2" speaker. Most manufacturers designate this same frame size as a 6-3/4" speaker. For simplicity's sake, we list it as a 6-3/4" speaker.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Polyglass Cone: The woofer cone has a cellulose pulp base and is coated with a uniform deposit of hollow glass microballs. The addition of the Polyglass layer significantly increases the cone's rigidity without adding much weight. This combination takes advantage of the accuracy and neutrality of the hard outer surface, but maintains the superior damping characteristics of the cellulose pulp. Surround: The butyl rubber surround is resistant to ultraviolet rays, temperature extremes, and humidity to add to the speaker's reliability and longevity. Voice Coil: The voice coil is wound around a 1" diameter low-mass Kapton former, ensuring no coil deformation. Inverted Dome Tweeter: The tweeter is an inverted aluminum dome, producing a broad sound stage. The tweeter rotates on its post, so it can be pointed toward the listener.

Sweet Sound of Music Cons: none Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 I'm impress... Written By mikeV, fresno,ca on Saturday, June 08, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I decide to buy these, because I wanted the sound of having component speakers but I didn't wanna drill holes for the tweeters in my door panels. I didn't wanna advertise "come still me" .. they fit perfect in my front doors. the adjustable tweeter helps a lot. the sound is amazing, there is mid bass, the tweeter isn't so harsh, and I could hear the voice clearly. I gotta add, with the features on my H.U, the sound doesn't sound like its coming from my door panels, rather more from my windshield. you get what you pay for. Currently it is just powered though my H.U. a Kenwood Excelon KDC-X997, rear fill is a Rockford Fosgate Prime R1675X2 and a powered sub Rockford Fosgate Punch P300-10. I will amp the speakers later, i'll update yall on it. Pros: great sound, adjustable angle on tweeter, love the mid bass, don't worry it doesn't hit the tweeter when the bass hits. overall great design. Cons: the price is pretty high for a coaxial, but if u want something great soundin like a component speakers, and have it be hidden, this is the best way to go. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Im looking at both bows and heard reviews that the jaguar is very loud is the saber worth the 50 dollars more for the newer noise and vibration dampeners?? i hav had troubles finding reviews on the saber thanks.
Im looking at both bows and heard reviews that the jaguar is very loud is the saber worth the 50 dollars more for the newer noise and vibration dampeners?? i hav had troubles finding reviews on the saber thanks.
welcome to the forum.are you looking into trad bow or compound?
Trad. ive shot compound all my life and looking into trying to take an animal with a recurve.
The Martin web site tells us that the Saber is a step up, a bit better bow than the Jaguar, probably because of the additional 4" in length, and the addition of the V.E.M.s, although the Saber has a wider brace height range, The Jaguar brace is 7", the Saber's brace height is 6.75 to 8.5. At 6.5, it will have more power stroke = faster and at 8.5 = forgivness, but less power stroke. Most of the noise one hears from a Jaguar is string slap, which can be tuned out, by twisting or un twisting the string to get the optimum brace. Yes, recurves need to be tuned. Since the Saber is new for this year, most likely it will be hard to find an online review of the bow. If I was looking for a metal risered recurve, I'd try the Saber with it's additional 4" in length, everything being equal, a 64" bow will be smoother than a 60" bow. Especially if you have a long draw.

Ben Pearson 1968 'Cougar' 62" 45#s @ 28" recurve, parallel shaft POC, Zwickey 'Eskimo' 2 blade
i was wondering the same thing. I will be using it mostly for bow fishing so the faster the better to get through the water but that rubber on the shelf concerns me because of the water possibly rotting it.
Thanks for the input decided to go with the all black saber hopefully a soon to be happy customer
If you're going to fish with it, I'd put a bowfishing roller rest on it and not worry about shooting off the shelf. I know the longer length makes it more forgiving, but you're only going to be shooting a few yards with it and the heavy fishing arrow will keep you slow enough to be very forgiving even at 60". A shorter bow is much easier to handle in a boat or in the brush. My choice would be a 60" bow.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the JBL SUB 550P by Dave Bar Why add a powered subwoofer? A powered subwoofer gives you bass you can feel as well as hear. Our customers love the depth and impact their subs add to music and movies. We hear comments like "it brings out sounds I didn't know existed in discs I've watched a million times." Powered subwoofers aren't just for big bass that rattles your picture frames; they can also deliver tight, accurate lows. If you haven't shopped for a powered sub in a while, you might be surprised at how small they get. Look for an ultra-compact model if you want to tuck your sub away under an end table or in a corner. Powerful-yet-refined performance Add tight, accurate bass to your home audio system with this potent powered subwoofer from JBL. The SUB 550P packs 300 watts of amplification and a 10" woofer into a modestly sized cabinet that fits easily into most living rooms. Thanks to speaker technology developed by JBL's professional division, you'll hear powerful, natural lows that put excitement into your music listening and bring your movies to explosive cinematic life. Airtight design for solid bass Unlike most subs, the 550P uses an acoustic suspension (sealed) cabinet design. A sealed enclosure more precisely controls the motion of the woofer cone than ported designs to give you smoother, more even response in the deepest frequencies. Included metal carpet spikes help decouple the subwoofer from the floor to improve bass impact while a front-firing driver reduces unwanted "boominess" and allows placement against a wall or in a corner to provide maximum bass output.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Controls Connections Features Overview: The JBL Studio SUB 550P powered subwoofer incorporates a 10" front-firing woofer and a built-in hi gh-performance 300-watt RMS amplifier that deliver the powerful, dynamic and accurate low-frequency performance that makes your film soundtracks and music come alive. And with line-level and LFE inputs, adjustable crossover & phase controls, plus automatic turn on/off, the SUB 550P is also simple to connect and set up. 300 Watt Amplifier: The 300 watt (RMS) high-output amplifier generates less heat than conventional amplifiers to play louder with less distortion for more realistic bass. 10" Front-Firing Woofer: The JBL Studio SUB 550P subwoofer features a front-firing 10" PolyPlas cone woofer with a cast-aluminum frame. It can reproduce both lightning-fast transient sounds and sustained low notes for heightened realism and excitement. Placed against a wall or in a corner, the front-firing JBL SUB 550P subwoofer delivers maximum bass impact to heighten your movie-watching experience. Sealed Enclosure: A sealed (acoustic suspension) enclosure more precisely controls the motion of the woofer cone than ported designs, for smoother, more realistic response in the deepest frequencies. Metal Floor Spikes: Four metal spikes are supplied for use when you place the subwoofer on a carpeted surface. Using the spikes decouples the subwoofer from the floor and prevents unwanted acoustic damping. The metal spikes add 0.1875" to the height of the powered sub. Placement: The performance of a subwoofer is directly related to its placement in the listening room and its physical position relative to the other speakers in the system. While it is true that in general our ears do not hear directional sounds at the low frequencies where subwoofers operate, when installing a subwoofer within the limited confines of a room, the reflections, standing waves and absorptions generated within the room will strongly influence the performance of any subwoofer system. As a result, the specific location of the subwoofer in the room does become important to the amount and quality of bass that is produced. Placing the powered sub in a corner generally will maximize the amount of bass in the room. However, corner placement can also increase the destructive effect of standing waves on bass performance. This effect can vary depending on the listening position; some listening positions may yield very good results while others may have far too much (or too little) bass at certain frequencies. Placing the subwoofer along the same plane as the left & right speakers can produce the best integration between the sound of the subwoofer and that of the left & right speakers. In some rooms, the best performance could even result from placing the subwoofer behind the listening position. Note: We strongly recommend that you experiment with placement before choosing a final location for the JBL power subwoofer. Controls Input Mode: When this switch is in the "Normal" setting, the input signal from the Line In connectors is active. When this switch is in the "LFE" setting, the input signal from the LFE In connector is active, and the subwoofer's internal crossover is bypassed. Volume Level: Use this control to adjust the subwoofer's volume relative to your system's speaker volume. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the volume; turn the knob counterclockwise to decrease the volume. Once you have balanced the subwoofer's volume with that of the other speakers in your system, you shouldn't have to change it. Low-Pass Crossover: The powered subwoofers' low-pass crossover frequency is adjustable (50-150Hz) for optimal performance with a variety of different speaker types. This control determines the highest frequency at which the subwoofer reproduces sounds. The higher you set the Crossover control, the higher in frequency the subwoofer will operate and the more its bass will "overlap" that of your system's other speakers. This adjustment helps achieve a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the subwoofer and the other speakers for a variety of different rooms and subwoofer locations. Note: The crossover control functions only when the Input Mode switch is in the "Normal" position. When the switch is in the "LFE" position, the subwoofer's built-in crossover and crossover control are bypassed. Phase Control: The JBL SUB 550P subwoofer has a phase switch (0°/180°) to ensure its driver moves in sync with the loudspeaker drivers in your system for clean, coherent output across all frequencies. This switch determines whether the subwoofer driver's piston-like action moves in and out in phase with your system's other speakers. If the subwoofer were to play out of phase with the other speakers, the sound waves from the other speakers could partially cancel out the sound waves from the subwoofer, reducing bass performance and sonic impact. This phenomenon depends in part on the placement of all the speakers relative to each other in the room. Power Switch: Set this switch in the "On" position to put the subwoofer in the Standby mode (the On/Standby LED lights red); set this switch in the "Off" position to turn the subwoofer off. Auto Turn On/Off: The JBL powered subwoofer automatically turn itself on when sensing an audio signal and switches into standby mode after 10 minutes of no signal. An LED indicates whether the subwoofer is in the On or Standby state. When the LED glows green, the subwoofer is turned on. When the LED glows red, the subwoofer is in the Standby mode. When the LED is off, the subwoofer's Power switch is set to "Off". Connections Line-Level Inputs: The JBL SUB 550P powered subwoofer is fitted with a set of stereo line-level (RCA) inputs. The audio signal from these inputs pass through the subwoofer's internal low-pass crossover. When you're connecting the subwoofer to the preamp or subwoofer outputs of a home theater receiver that does not have its own low-pass crossover network, use both line inputs. Note: You must set the Input Mode switch in the "Normal" position. LFE Input: The powered sub's "Left" line-level input can be used as an LFE input. The audio signal from this input bypasses the subwoofer's internal low-pass crossover. When you're connecting the subwoofer to the dedicated subwoofer output of a home theater receiver that has its own low-pass crossover network, use the LFE input. Note: You must also set the subwoofer's Input Mode switch in the "LFE" position. Detachable AC Power Cord: The JBL SUB 550P comes with a detachable 6' AC power cord.
