Now I'm having a problem with ReviewStream

What is the required amount of words?

minimum of 150 words.

I'll count the words, but I emailed them and asked why I keep getting this "your review is not valuable" thing. This is what they said: Okay I can't cut and past. :) Basically they said it's because they're not interested in my review, and I can try and "improve it" or sell it elsewhere. I don't see how they can KNOW they're not interested when I'm simply hitting a "submit" button and it won't go through, meaning no human eyes have even seen it! With one the subject was listed on the list of topics that have been REQUESTED, and the other wasn't but I've tried three different things now and none will go through. I really think they've all been more than 150 words too but I'll count to be sure. Okay, a couple of the ones I tried were too short, but I lengthened and it still won't accept it. I'm beginning to think ReviewStream is a scam, they just published one of my articles so now it's like they won't take anything else from me, they probably won't for several days so I can't hit the $50 too fast. Has anybody ever actually reached $50 and BEEN PAID by them?

I think you've missed the entire point of the discussion. We're talking about writing good reviews, trying to submit them, and being rejected IMMEDIATELY without a human being from ReviewStream even looking at them. It is either a technical glitch, or a system employed by ReviewStream to prevent people from posting too many reviews and actually reaching the $50 payout. The reply I got from ReviewStream was short, catty, and I put a lot more effort into my reviews than they did into that reply!

If you believe you wrote a "good review" and reviewstream doesn't want to buy it (doesn't matter why) why not to sell it to the other site? It's not a problem to sell a good review. If it's a really good review ) As I said before, I never had such a problem. Probably because it's a review problem, not a glitch or anything else.

I am actually looking at other sites. But I'd still like an explanation of how it can be a problem with the review when hitting the "submit" button IMMEDIATELY results in a page that says "Your review is not valuable, it was not submitted." If it was not SUBMITTED then how can they know it's not valuable? The word count is the only thing that makes sense. If it's too short, it's possible the form is set up to automatically reject anything that's less than the required number of words. Otherwise, they can't possibly know the review is not valuable because they have simply not read it.

I hate to think it's a just a glitch in their system that might be fixed tomorrow and we're all getting mad and giving up - yet at the same time I really don't like that response I got from their customer service. But, I have submitted some stuff to Triond in the meantime. My first article to them was rejected because it was too short. But I submitted another longer one and I haven't heard back from them yet.

Okay I have figured this out - it's TWO HUNDRED WORDS. Not 150 - 200. That did it. I put a review up to 200 words and it got through. Why can't they just tell you there's a 200 word minimum? Anwyay, that's it.

Yes I am extremely annoyed with them right now especially after that response I got. I just signed up for Triond and submitted an article, we'll see how that goes.
