I would like to preface this by saying that I refound this thread in a rather roundabout way. Checking the latest reviews as I do after I review a level to find the particularly terrible reviews so I can think smugly to my ego "Hah, look at this. If they attempted to write an essay about the importance of Washington on the Potomac, they would surely not get the scholorship" I found a review for my terrible wallpaper that sparked this discussion. Granted this discussion is even more relevant today since even with quick reviews allowing you to write whatever the hell you want and then slapping a number on it (one quick review cited merely that the level in question had "a lot of stuff") many levels still aren't being reviewed by more than three people. How the hell Akutube found my upload is beyond me, much less where he found the need to review it. Needless to say it led me back to this thread where I found I missed out on a post somehow. Granted it was five days later and I was probably burnt out. However I felt it was necessary to start up a debate, or perhaps correction-fest, over a year later with a guy who probably doesn't give a damn now. Helping me in this was Odin and Novastar who gave me the peer pressure to go through with this notion.

WRONG, DUNKHEAD (Sucka wouldn't make much sense, thats his name). Such a thing is funny and witty as a good number of reviews for my crappy uploads have said so. Such a thing is also useful since it sparked this discussion which led to a few people actually reviewing actual levels and also community spirit as we all bashed on Faw and then collectively loved him again. Finally, my JCS Beginner User's guide is helpful since it pretty much summed up everything NOT to do in your level in visual form (I.E. linear designs in the strictest sense of the word, rows of enemies, harmful objects everywhere for "difficulty", every boss ever in one room), however I guess not enough people actually used it since I still see some of those bad level cliches appearing every now and again.
