Jul 23 '05    Write an essay on this topic.


The Bottom Line Thanks to RomaSuave for this write off.

Member Name and meaning behind it (if there is one)

Criteeker as in someone who likes to critique things. I wasn't terribly creative at that moment. If I was to change it, I'd go with "Puppypaws" since my dogs are my universe.


Date I joined Epinions

August 24th, 2001 (2 days before my birthday). I wrote 2 reviews in August of 2001 and nothing in 2002. In 2003 and 2004 I exploded into my Epinions writing fetish.


How I stumbled upon Epinions

In 2001, I purchased my new Euroflex bed and wanted to get the word out about this new brand.

"There's a New Mattress in Town" It's about my new bed made by Euro-Flex and how much I love it more than the $6,000 Duxiana bed. CLICK HERE

My most lucrative review (with link and $$$ earned)

My very first review about my favorite new mattress.

Things I like most about Epinions

The friendly members, the Meet & Greets and the general sense of community. It's a great place to learn before you buy.


Things I dislike most about Epinions

The fact that Epinions can remove your top reviewer hat at any time for not writing a minimum amount of reviews - an amount Epinions refuses to tell us. In life, when you earn an award, it's never taken back. If you earn an award, you should be able to keep it. Epinions continues to benefit from my reviews, so why can't the writers?

Egomaniacs who think they are the pinnacle of writing talent. People who think Epinions is their personal religious or ethics pulpit. Hidden raters who think that it hurts when they are the ONLY one with a NH rating.


Members I admire most on Epinions

Howard Creech. This guy is the technology guru.

BadKittyM. She is the most entertaining with her out-spoken ideas about life. Forget the fact that she's a hottie...LOL I just wish she'd start writing again.

SteelFan. Keith is the power and kitchen tool go to guy. He's a nice guy too.

DrDevience. She funny...she's a great writer and she's a criminologist. She rocks!

ShopLMart. This doll knows cars and everything automotive.

Puckmugger. This is a guy who knows more about hockey than I do....which is hard to believe.

Bryan Carey. This guy knows beer and has about 4,644 reviews...LOL


My ultimate goal at Epinions

To help consumers make more informed purchasing decisions.
