It is awesome that people are reviewing the reviewers, lol. I scan over the really short reviews, and the really long reviews. Especially when someone gives a breakdown of every single hole on the course. Its is somewhat cringe worthy.
I have no problem with newbie's giving a short review of a course they just played. It may help other newbies, and as long as they are upfront with how long they have played, and number of courses played, I think there is value for someone.
I don't reply to anyone's review any longer. I PM'ed someone once to let them know I thought their review of a local course was overly harsh, and the guy just went ballistic. I actually laid out some very well-reasoned points, and the person, who was a fairly well know regular, just became a complete d-bag and was very insulting. I think some people take themselves and their reviews way too serious.
