When to say no more Mr. Nice Guy reviewer

The higher the standards of the site, and the more firm the reviewers are about accepting sites, the more people seem to want to reach that bar. Yes, some of those are the real major players or long-time icons. Look at Danger Dave or JK on the PA side. Look at the feeding frenzy when Tommy announces he has a PA available. Do they relax their standards? Hell no. Even a Tommy PA doesn't guarantee you will have your sites accepted. It is just a ticket to the reviewer.

Persian Kitty, UW and Preacher spring to mind along with LOR and Richard's Realm. I smile for days after getting a site accepted at Persian Kitty because I know they are very picky and don't accept just anything from anyone. UW and Preacher likewise have very tough personal standards and openly won't bother even glancing at most of what they get. Someday, I will build to their standards... and it gives me something to work for.

Be tough -- reject what you don't like and your visitors will reap the benefits.
