Have fun posting reviews guys.

Hmm I’d say that is a very decent proposal for reviews although someone still has to google the text to see if it is a stolen review or self written.

well since i needed to fix my review threads. I will Be doing that. I Have fixed up these reviews of mine so far; My Little Bride (korean), Diva Ah Hey and Love on A Diet (Chinese), Meteor Garden One and Two, Silence, Mars, and Smiling Pasta (Taiwanese). I might add alil more to those threads but pretty much updated them already. I Still have to fix two in the anime review section Inuyasha and Fushigi Yugi. Please bear with me... Thank you.

I didn't know that this thread exists!!!

Anyways, I agree with Krazoom that one has to google these reviews to check if its plagiarized or not! A lot of these reviews, as pointed out to me by HybriDsmbr, are either copy-pasted or just two- or three-liner reviews that doesn't state any in-depth analysis and evaluation of the movie/series. I already moved some user reviews that is copy-pasted or does not meet the standards to the movie/series discussion section and planning to PM the authors who need to enrich their reviews in order to be in good quality... Thanks vietshortee for taking the initiative to enrich your reviews. Hopefully, the rest will follow suit.

We really have to maintain originality here since this is considered a USER review...

But Lance, HybriDsmbr suggested that we should come up with a set of rules and consequences for violators especially those who exhibits plagiarism... what do you think?

I totally agree with you 4jpz. I've had to trash a few reviews just recently because of them being copied and pasted from sites like drama wiki and silent regrets. One user on here told me that they credited the sites which paraphrasing from other sites is fine for the synopsis however if you don’t supply your own views as in your own original opinions on the series or movie then it is plagiarizing.

just a question? what if i copied the storyline in other website? but then, i create my own review (although im not that good on it) do you think its still plagiarism?
