Topic: A common courtesy

Some of the newer members might not be aware of this...

When someone takes the time to review your work it's a common courtesy to reply in kind. Even if it's just a simple thank you, that little bit of communication lets the reviewer know that you saw and appreciate their effort.

Re: A common courtesy

Hi, Linda.  I am probably one of those new guys that need to get off the dime and start doing more reviews.  Now that the holidays  are over and my family's mini-maelstrom has pretty much resolved itself, I'll get busy and do some reading/commenting.

Re: A common courtesy

Actually Tom, I should have been more clear. By reply in kind I wasn't referring to returning the review so much as replying to the review they received. It lets the reviewer know that their efforts were seen and appreciated.

Re: A common courtesy

Ah so.  I make every effort to do that.  I see now what you were driving at.

if you fail to acknowledge a review I leave for you it will be the last I leave.  It takes less than a minute to say thanks for the review.  I promise it takes me much longer to leave the review  Couldn't agree with you more on this point, Linda
