I shop at newegg.com and have had nothing but good experiences when shopping with them but I have notice one thing I highly disagree with. Under any product you are looking at many have reader reviews. Newegg seems to filter which reviews are allowed to be read and which arn't which seems rather shaky to me. If someone post a bad review Ive yet to see any on newegg.com . I only see post that whole heartedly indorse the product or have a neutral comment on the product. I think this is bad business to edit and regulate what reviews are seen by potential buyers in other words it's total BS! anyway take a look at there site and you will notice that any item can have a total of 15 and upward of reviews but newegg only chooses to show the reviews that support or postively indorse the product.

What are yout alking about? Ive never posted this before. If it has happend to be posted in the past then perhaps it might be F***ing true? Hmmmm imagine that? In any case why should my post be locked? becuase you are sucking on newegg Deek? I shop there too but if they start to doctor reviews for their own personal financial gain then why in the F**k have reader/customer reviews at all?

I know I have bought well over 3 thousand dollars worth of hardware from these guys in the last year and a half and if this review sh*t continues I aint sticking around to support the BS!

As if I care wether they cry or not the question is do you have a *f* brain?

Tell me what's a review if the company that makes the procudt reviews their own products? Hmmmmmmmmmm? U *f* moron!

If you wan't to censor sh*t move to cuba or better yet go into business and call yoursel newcensor!

LOL! Well...........don't know about you "Mr. Obvious", but, I pretty much know what I'm going to buy and why before I go order and use NewEgg because they have the best prices.;)

I couldn't care less if they had the reviews or not and it has been pretty well established that this is the consenses of most NewEgg customers..........

(average rating for this product is **** stars out of 26 reviews)

Then you only ge to see 4 reviews instead of the entire 26 in which people whole heartedly back the product or have nothing but good things to say about it.

What about the other f**king 22 comments? i suppose we shouldn't show those becuase if we did we might not seel this shi***y ASS! product so lets just not post them we will only show what makes this thing look good. LOL! if you people think this is a way to conduct business you need go buy an e-machine I hear they are craptastic machiens and they too only have good reviews :)

First of all, to be honest, IDGAF about the reviews. Secondly those other 22 reviews were probably just mindless Intel/AMD/Nvidia/ATI sux0rs comments by AMD/Intel/ATI/Nvidia zealots. How many of those do I REALLY need to read???


<< if this review sh*t continues I aint sticking around to support the BS! >>


Fine. Go somewhere else and pay higher prices, get slower/more expensive shipping, and have sloppy or non-existent RMA handling. That just leaves more stuff for me! (You may read this as "Mmmm...Newegg deek!" if you'd like ;))

Finally...some clips from three seperate Tyan Tiger MP reviews...


<< I'm having Floppy Issues however and still think I may have a controller issue. Good board, Lots of mem Expansion 3GB DDR, Would recommend however it doesn't appear to be the best for overclocking. >>




<< I'm currently having problems booting from my RAID card and using DMA on an onboard HD. But the board is stable and reliable, which is probably all that matters for a workstation. >>




<< Regardless of what you read, you MUST use REGISTERED ddr.
Unrecognized floppy requires clearing the CMOS.
CMOS clearing may take two attempts or shorting for 5 minutes.
Insert the memory with the board OUT of the case.
Proper insertion requires ABNORMAL FORCE.
(The mem sockets are too tight & poorly seated memory is the cause of most installation headaches).
>>


These comments probably make people shy away from the board but it could cut down on their return rate. Do you think they LIKE taking products back regardless of who is paying shipping or restocking fees? That's time that could be spent shipping products to people that will actually keep and enjoy their purchases!

spelling edit :eek:

Newegg says they don't post overly negative reviews...they even tell you where to go to get reviews. This is a non-issue if the tell you about it.

I think with Newegg's review form, you can give it 1-5 stars and the comments are optional. So I think many people just give it a rating and doesn't bother with posting a comment.
