It would certainly be helpful. I'd love to see polling available for reviews as well. Something that would make it easy to get a statistical analysis of commonalities in reviews. Not sure if anyone else would find that helpful though.
HeeftyInteresting idea. I wonder if just counting "up thumbs" wouldn't do that. I can get a pretty good handle on people liking an idea by looking at that. For instance; when I tossed out the idea of a review of the HE4XXers, people put that they were interested by "liking" the post. At the end of the review, I saw a like or two regarding that review. I sort of think people are kind of lazy about it though, I don't know if they will do a poll any better than they do "liking" something, you know?
Do you think adding that feature would make it too cumbersome for Massdrop to want to initiate such a feature? Should there be commentary allowed on each review? There runs the risk of getting threads to become too bulky again.
Maybe they could start with the basic idea, then, if it takes off, add a feature or two. 10 point rating scale?
hmmm.
TiffanyPoodleslideOh, here we go; A poll about whether we should have the Review Section happen here on Massdrop!
I suck at building a poll. :(

TiffanyPoodleslideIt could make it easy for interested persons. To see where the majority of the reviews make complaints or give praise to see if it aligns with their personal requirements. If there was a poll with several relevant questions to go with each review with 1-10 scales I think that people could easily get a sense for what to expect.
Even beyond that, Massdrop/industry could easily see people's demands and where they find fault without reading through the hundreds of pages of comments sections grasping for snippets of useful information.
I think it could be valuable enough for Massdrop that they might not mind any complexity.

Heeftyand @TiffanyPoodleslide we know that many members would love to have a form of a Reviews feature added to the site, and generally more kinds of structured content on product pages - whether that's Reviews or Q&A or a User Image Gallery. These are things we are actively working on planning for on the Product Team. Stay tuned and thanks for being awesome humans who care about the community!
