Amazon gives me advice how to review

[reviews_and_ramblings]

I sent an enquiry to Amazon wondering why some reviews were not posted. I was replied that there were some forbidden words (as usual, hand job, blow job), and that I was welcomed to post them again without them. But they also give me an advice more... directly from their words:

"Also, please make sure you are providing your opinion on whether the items you are review are good or bad and the reasons why. It appears that the majority of your reviews are just the descriptions of the plots of the books."

Strange, I was very well certain to do exactly the opposite. If I retell part of the story, it's only to point out some side of the characters... but well, they probably know more than me, don't they?

A very pissed off Elisa, who is really wondered why she bothers to post reviews on Amazon (I know why, I do that to promote the books, Amazon is till the main online booksellers, but still...)

In ebooks they have some, but in print books it's very hard to find someone else with the same wide back catalogue. But this authomatic replies some people on call centers post sometime makes me wonder where did they learn the job. Elisa

I don't think they ever did learn the job. Poor Mark has been trying to get them to put the new releases of Ransom and Winds into "GAY" and "Gay Romance" for about a month now. You'd think, since the original books are still up there, that they'd go, "Oh, same book, same categories." But no.. Throws the ratings off something fierce, since the originals aren't for sale any more.
