I have been at EdenFantasys for over four years...since well before there were neat little contests and other events. When I started you could apply for advanced reviewer status but you could not be assured that you would ever get any cool products to "test". Only a select few reviewers could get such benefits. There was a major change of thought and pace and lots of people got upset and a few left scorched and ego bruised.
The thing is now ANYONE can get at least one toy to review....and more than one if they are really interested and do a bit of work. I, personally, have a bedroom that is better stocked than most brick and mortar stores. What have I done to get such riches? I have followed the instructions given, done my best to write interesting and informative reviews, corrected (and even rewrote) reviews that were grammatically incorrect, and then passed on those years of learning to others who have gone on to become high level reviewers.
Honestly, even with all the drama that seems to flare up in any community where else can you vent your feelings, get help for sensitive issues, and win AMAZING products just by following a few instructions? I mean honestly? Have you seen the Eden Cafe contests? Click a few buttons and win swag? How about these amazing contests that Stormy puts together? Follow her well written instructions and show the community what you are capable of! We all know writer's love to write but they also LOVE to have their words read....and Rayne makes sure we can do just that! ...and the prizes? DAMN!

Can I get some of the members of this fine community to give a huge HELL YA to our hard working staff? While I know not everyone is going to be happy all the time, but we do kinda have it pretty sweet here, don't we?
