I think reviews are a little biased to the positive.
But if a reviewer gives a mediocer review he may get flamed or worse the auther may stop writing and we never get to hear about the raise of lue chang.
Moby, it wasn't that he gave one of my stories that bad a review. He gave it a lukewarm review. But, as I sometimes do, I clicked on the reviewer's name and found that he/she had written a great number of reviews (including reviews of some long stories) in a very short space of time, and that the "marks" were almost uniformly low compared to the average score for that story. And the comments were so brief as to call into question whether the person had made a serious attempt to read the stories, as opposed to having a desire to put down a flock of authors -- including most of the top authors on this site. If you doubt me, go check his reviews, paging down so that you begin with his earliest efforts. (Remember that the date shown on the review is the date of the story, not the review); a great many of his reviews were written with a few days time.
