| Benj, please could you delete thefoxboy's "Hanks is owin' Wilson" here as soon as possible as he had read mine in the F.Y.C.T.H. shortly before submitting it? Thanks. |

So why is it on the site still? If you don't like it Alan Smithee it. |

Because Benj hasn't chosen to remove it and transfer the votes, of course.

I didn't say I disliked it: I said it was too similar to other reviews. If I didn't like it, I would delete it; Smitheeing reviews is a terrible thing to do. It's also totally wrong as a solution to duplicate reviews, as the reviews are duplicates just the same, regardless of whether the reviewers are no longer owning up to them. |

Nice V.D. pun, B.B. Shame you didn't check out the highest review for the film, though. I look forward to receiving your vote shortly.  |

I'd voted for it many moons ago. Not that I was consciously thinking of it when I submitted mine. I guess the MERPs thought both were valid.

Not very likely. They're hardly in the running for a Consistency of the Century award. What could they think that yours adds to the site? |

1) Another review (hence the title of this website...)
2) a different approach on the same idea.
They would be my reasons. |

Going by that logic, all submissions would be published automatically...

Hardly. An identical pun happening to have different insignificant words around it is not exactly a fresh 'approach'. |

| Here, demonic's "J.C. VD?" is newer than my "JC VD?", which was rejected twice before his was published and has now been again. |

Benj, how on Earth should I deal with this please? I have reported it and posted here, but my older review keeps being rejected. |

Thanks. I don't really want it to be like that previous case where my older review was rejected twenty times! It's a bit of a waste of my quota. |

| Quick question Benj - has the capability to report reviews recently been turned off or is my web browser playing up? I was trying to report a straight duplication of two "Princess Bride" reviews tonight and the submit button isn't doing anything at all. |

| This has always been the case with Google Chrome, and I recently told Benj about it, so perhaps he is in the middle of tweaking things. |
