Even though Violet's is the most accurate review, it won't be rated as well because of the low rating it gave towards the level).
I probably confused everyone with this post, but oh well.

That is basically the same problem I said about it; also, having reviews-for-reviews just sounds weird. I suggested that perhaps there would be a way to give a one-line reason for the rating. The level maker and reviewer could not rate the review. Additionally, reviewer's ratings and reasons are logged for appropriateness. At the bottom, it will display a percent who found it helpful. This will also affect an average in the reviewer's profile, but not the rating. Perhaps an anonymous rating function would be available, that only administration can see the author of. Obviously, these ratings would go by the same rules as any other rating. Also, I suggest on a coding level that there is a control panel where you can see, dated, the latest reviews.
I also have a second suggestion: The date of when a review is posted should be displayed in the review. I'm surprised that no one (at least no one whom I can find) has suggested this previously.
Any suggestions?
