Idea for increasing interaction

What do you guys think of an email link at the bottom of our reviews so that readers can discuss our reviews with the writer?....or u could have a link that creates a discusion board....so that the writer or othe readers can interact on the review.

We've had a feedback system on the to-do list for some time. Such an implementation under the current system (phpBB forums + custom content management) has been a major technical hurdle. We've got plans for a completely new system, one that takes on a few more blog-like features. It'll be a while though.

yeah...a feed back system would make us unique because sometimes i want to argue with a writer but there's no way to contact them.

i keep a film blog if u ever get into that stuff.

A means of getting outside blogs & sites in on the SP action is also planned. I should stress, though, that there's no timetable for these plans at the moment.

I agree that having a feedback system linked to the reviews themselves is a good idea but we do have places on the forum, the critical point section et al, where you can challenge a critics perspective on a review, tap out your own opinion and place links.

We definitely do. I think, though, a feedback system could work for people who are somewhat intimidated by forums (as apparently some people are). It's all good, so long as it doesn't devolve into AICN-style Talk Backs. I'll shut them down before that happens. Wink
