Reviews on the new format

I've only by chance seen the review "update" and noticed that the number of reviews left by the reviewer no longer appears.

I've often placed store by the number previously made, even if I don't necessarily agree with the review, as it tends to show a number of things, such as experience of poster and whether I have come to respect their review as being a balanced one amongst other things.

The new system seems to imply everyone is a first time reviewer and I'I'll miss this small but often pertinent part of the review.

    yes, I tend to put faith in certain folks who do reviews and share similar tastes to us. Quite a few of my reviews vanished in the last forum update, so I tended not to do as many. Hope none of Nellie’s disappear…

    I think they took them out of CT. They used to appear in Latest Activity. I just happened to open my phone and it updated showing reviews but when I went to use it it took me to new sign in and I lost them. I dont know where they are easily found now. Perhaps @Rowena could enlighten us.

    The only way, on the main website, you seem to be able to access to read or write a review is to go to the webpage for that site. That really hasn't changed (not sure about the App?) I quite like the new display format as you can see more reviews on one page. Having said that I tend to agree with Wherenext its a shame that the number of reviews a member has made is missing. I wonder if that is because you could previously click on the reviewers name to see their other reviews? Perhaps that doesn't exist now? One other thing I would say is the the Club should really have some short guidelines on that is required in a review next to where you are writing the review, particularly about offensive remarks about site staff?
