Title: New Product Review section
Post by: Robert on February 18, 2014, 08:38:55 AM
Hey all, I've added a new product review section here http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/forum/index.php/board,18.0.html  (http://www.thinkfish.co.uk/forum/index.php/board,18.0.html) I figure it'll take time to populate it but over time it should add value and give people a steer on what are the best products to use n the space.

Thoughts of course welcome! :)

I would like to add that the review section should not be used for just product-bashing. It is not unknown for companies to take exception to such things. If you need to criticise a product, do it in a calm, reasoned manner. Explain your comments. Say that this is what happened in your own experience. Don't say "product x by company y is a load of rubbish, don't buy it under any circumstances"; instead say "when I bought product x by company y it broke as soon as I got it out of the box; I would not advise anyone to purchase this product".

Spot on Sue, there is always a danger of them becoming that! I've posted some guidance, maybe that'll suffice, maybe not! Worth a bash  :)
