What a bunch of horsesh*t. :|


Newegg.com is not a forum for product reviews. For product reviews, we recommend sites such as www.cnet.com, www.anandtech.com, and www.tomshardware.com. Newegg.com is a private site that conducts the business of selling computer hardware and as such, any specifications and information posted by Newegg.com regarding products for sale must be factual. However, customer comments in regards to their experience with said products are the opinions of the user. The customer opinion reviews are used at the discretion of Newegg.com as a marketing device for positive and constructive ways to share the benefit of the product. It is not used as a source for negative commentary as we cannot endorse the validity of any negative comment. Therefore, the Newegg.com site is moderated to remove any unproven biased negative comments. It is not the intention of Newegg.com to mislead any customer and therefore all purchase decisions should not be solely based on the customer review.

While I don't completely agree with it, it kind of makes sense. Oftentimes when someone has a problem with a product they tend to exaggerate the situation, especially if they can do so anonymously. I've seen "negative" reviews that were obviously written by someone outsmarted by the hardware. That happens way more often than overly positive reviews.

Just post your unproven biased negative comments elsewhere, and you'll be fine. ;) :p Well, unless you're being retarded. I've had bad experiences with Newegg, and I would still buy from them. Relax, let it go, and move on with your life.

I find I can generally discern a worth negative reviews from a hit and run troll review. I'd rather them let me decide.
