BitFenix Ghost for Reviews!
- Thread starter xbournex
- Start date
This thread is full of baloney
This is turning into a joke as well now, who knows maybe this is shashman's other account 
The thing is, xborunex will see that this is happening again, second time in a row now, which means the chances of him stopping these give-aways is even more likely now.
He gives the products to us around the time of release for a reason.
Find it amusing that Bacon was giving of about shashman in the other thread as well, yet he is now doing the exact same thing, don't think he has even started the review either...
And as I expected, dons simply locked the thread to sweep the situation with shashman under the carpet, nothing has been done at all, surprise surprise........
In fact xborunex, if I were you, I wouldn't bother bother doing these types of competitions on this forum again, clearly the forum is not worthy enough to have this sort of privilege. If you want to give away these products to get community feedback then give them to Tealc, Stulid, RJC or setter or someone else who has done a good review and got it done in a timely manner.

Solution is not to tar everyone with same brush but to remove the rotten apples from forum.
It isn't so much their experience in writing reviews, more so that they have proven to be worthy of doing the reviews in a timely manner for Bitfenix i.e. in less than 2 weeks. Pretty much all the ones I mentioned got very good reviews done within like 4 days of receiving their items.

Yup, the most ideal action is that, however, as has been proven from the situation with shashman, dons don't give a flying ****, therefore that won't happen.
Maybe what I said about that part is a bit over the top, however, I think xborunex should definitely make it clear in his OP for give-aways that he would like the review to be done in a timely manner i.e. 2 weeks (of course he might not mind waiting 1+ month for the review, however, going by a few of his posts, I get the impression that he does mind and would appreciate it if the reviews are posted not long after the end users receiving them, it isn't exactly asking for much considering these guys are getting equipment costing £70+ for free)

Fair comment, but how do you enforce any rules or stipulations, without the MODS intervention. xbournex can say whatever he likes in regards to someone getting something to review, but he can`t force them to comply. Therein lies the problem, as it is all done on trust.
So, with out the Mods support, it is the old case of "banging your head against a brickwall".
True.
Unfortunately only xbournex can speak to the dons and work something out but I doubt that will happen as he posted some reason in the last thread about that and plus nothing has happened with shashman.
Comments like this will never help, there is only so much someone can do, xbournex offered these items in good faith in what appears to be another let down, has anyone actually messged a don or sent a trust message to Bacon? If we keep just posting here how can we expect something to actually happen
No point wasting your time sending the dons a message about it, as with the shashman situation, obviously they don't care about it and won't be doing a single thing and this is now 5+ months later (his reasons were pathetic "oh just this pesky little thing getting in the way, called life" despite being able to put so many hours into world of tanks, borderlands 2, posting away here etc.). Dons are well aware of it and have been for like 4 months, heck supposedly there was a thread about it in the dons/underboss section where "they were taking the matter very seriously and considering what to do"
Sending a message to Bacon is pointless as well, I am sure that he is following this thread and is just choosing to not reply to it, if you send him a trust message, it will be read and moved to the bin.
The only way the dons will actually listen and do something is if xbournex sends them a trust message asking them to punish them until the review is done and if they say no, then if I were xbournex, I would just not bother giving any more stuff away on this forum and find some other forum.
Maybe xbournex could request the items to be sent back or for them to send the items to someone else in order to do the review.
Careful
