1Helpful or Not Helpful
I can't help but notice that despite an increasing number of wine reviews and wine reviewers (yeay!) on vinquire, there are still alotof people choosing not to participate in the "helpful" or "not helpful" questionaire at the end of each entry.
Since vinquire is a free site (and a damn good one at that, I might add) I would encourage everyone who reads a review to qualify it as either "helpful" or "not helpful". It only takes a fraction of a second, and a click of your mouse.
As reviewers this helps us stay in touch with what you, our readers, want out of vinquire and continue to refine and expand our efforts to better serve our online community. It also helps us to qualify those who might want to abuse the open forum nature of this website.

I'm brand new to this site, but I also noticed there does not seem to be many people involved in this site. I almost didn't join because I thought it might be "dead."
Could be why you are not getting many comments on your reviews.

Well digger, welcome to vinquire.
I'm sure it has a a lot more to do with the the rarity of the wines themselves. I'm not sure how many readers we have, but if you ask John or Andy who run the site they might be able to tell you. The site is still fairly new, and we get new visitors and posters almost everyday.

Hi Digger, thanks for your comments.
The site is not dying by any means. While we'd like thousands of reviewers and forum contributors to add to the social experience of Vinquire, the vast majority of users come to our site primarily for the Wine Price Search.
It is truly unique in it's ability to perform local searches for wine in your area, and also the option to use advanced search operators to precisely find the wine you are looking for at the best price.
Thanks for joining Vinquire -- we hope you find the site useful.
