Karma Police

Apr 12, 2007 |  Vinquire (14) |  News & Updates |  0 comments

In order to ensure proper WineRankings throughout Vinquire's wine review database we've introduced a Review Karma for every user. Your Review Karma is based entirely on what other Vinquire users thought of your wine reviews; particularly, how helpful your review was to them.

Under each wine review you'll now see a small form to evaluate the helpfulness of the review:



When you come across a review that you thought helped shape your opinion of a wine, click "Helpful". Alternatively, when you come across a review that didn't help you at all or you thought was just poor overall, click "Not Helpful". You would also want to click "Helpful" if you thought an individual reviewer had exceptional wine knowledge and a well trained palate.

Additionally, if you're curious about your Review Karma status go to your My Reviews page and you'll see it at the top. The more "Helpful" votes you've received, the higher your Review Karma. If you're in the negative, don't be discouraged. What may help is to browse other user's reviews for ideas on ways to improve. Additional information on this page will be each of your review's overall helpfulness, which led to your Review Karma score. This may assist you in identifying your better and not so good reviews.

Keep up the good work everyone, and stay tuned for more features to come!
