My thoughts on reviews, and why each story gets so few:
- Overall low traffic to stories that aren't on the front page.
- Overall low review % out of how many people read the stories (do you need an account to leave a review? I think you do, and I if I'm right that is a barrier to participation). One of my stories has 2 reviews for 20k views, or a .01% review rate.
- If you haven't published any stories RECENTLY, you won't get any reviews at all. I think I've only gotten 0~2 reviews in the last year, despite having 20 stories on the site.
I'd like to see a rating and review box at the end of each story, no registration necessary to leave reviews, and the top and bottom 10% of reviews for each story left out of the average, to mitigate random trolling. I've responded to most reviews people have left, but it hasn't seemed to help.
