If you change your username to Please Kill Me Later it may not seem so urgent. 
(Disclaimer: This was meant to be funny. If you don't find it amusing put it down to the fact that as an Australian I'm upside down in the Land Down Under which gives me an unusual perspective on things.) |

Not wanting to start an argument, but did this tactic work did you get a pile of reviews approved or not, if it did work I may give it a go.

Actually it did work...once. Not sure if it will work a second time. I'll keep you posted.

I'd say that if there's anything guaranteed not to get your reviews processed in a timely manner, it's sarcasm.
This is second only to saying you have a system that gets your reviews processed in a timely manner. |

Yeah so I'm a noob, and obviously my initial reviews don't deserve to be immediately approved (even though i feel it was my destiny to grace this site, amid some of the tripe that passes for reviews), and I saw the sticky posted in 2003 ahout the backlog of pending reviews taking weeks to clear, and because I'm new, I would like to ask what the status is like now?

Welcome to the fourum Brassy,
The pending queue time lapse varies, at times the pendings could take 1 day and sometimes it can take 1 or 2 months. The more popular or well known the film the faster the reviews APPEAR to get dealt with.
Benj and the MERPs are the only ones that can approve reviews and the secrets of the actual process are held in deep dark vaults deep below westminster abbey in a cardboard box labelled secrets.
Benj is the only person who has the power to add new films whereas the MERPs along with Benj do all the approvals and declines. As none of them get paid for the task it is understand that at times they get on with other things in their lives.
We seem to be on a slightly quieter time at the moment but I am sure it will pick up soon.

Sure thing, I mean, I guessed as much re: the better things to do with their lives bit, I take it there is a crack, elite squadron of these MERPs and with nearly 7000 reviewers I expect there's a lot to get through.
Does the site make any revenue? I'm sure there're some opportunities for it, what with being dedicated to the billion-pound movie industry. |

Not all reviewers are current and active, but I'll bet there are blooming hundreds of reviews pending at anyone time.

Not sure, for that you would have to ask Benj, but I doubt he would be overly forthcoming.

Welcome to FWFR, thebrasseye.
I think benj and the MERPs must get paid heaps, that probably explains why reviews are pending for ages sometimes. They are all tanning on a beach in Bora Bora or hanging out with Hefner and the girls at the mansion....lucky bastards.

Yeah, I know what you mean about the tripe, but sometimes you just have to wade through. Welcome to the Fourum, Brassy! |
