REW Review
I've been here three weeks...And had two matches, one that I didn't even want.
REW has potential to actually be prestigious, but my stay wasn't the greatest.
Your ruling on roleplays are too strict, having been best known for long roleplays, 3 roleplays for a week is virtually impossible and nothing can slow me down. The fact that there can be no sex, extreme language or violence in RP is just restricting, it cuts down on ideas as well as the fact that you gotta mention REW.
I should of beat this Homie fellow with ease, but the 3-per-show minimum cut that bitch up. It should be a 3-per-show maximum, not minimum, it could actually show other members why they're champions, unlike putting three ultra-short roleplays.
If I put up one of my roleplays, odds are that the opponent with three micro sized roleplays would beat mine and burn the entire point of me writing a RP.
Also, why did I have a match last week? Last time I checked, I do not have an official 'contract' profile written or recorded on the site which takes away more points.
A good thing regarding REW though is the 'referee' system, I like that, but it's so friking hard to even get 3 posts in for the actual referee to judge.
Overall, I don't want to be booked as an active performer much longer. REW is a good fed beneath the haystacks known as rules.
I can help this place improve from the sloppy state of the card for Wrath this week, give me a position as staff member and I will make sure this place ends up in the clear and THE place to be.
Overall Rating - 6.2 |

yes there is a rule where you cant put sex in the posts, but we never stopped people from using bad language or violence in your rp's as long as your not killing the other wrestler and by no means is there a rule where every one have to mention REW. all posts are scored by Quality over Quantity and you have to wait at least 2 hours before posting off your own post and you can only post off your self one time less the other guy no shows the first two days where in that case you can post the 3ed for the win. |

Also, Daniel, the rules are in no way meant to hamper you. We all are from a fed known as Ring-Wars in which we grew accostomed to the write your own match as it goes format. The promo format limits you to letting someone else do your creative work, and expansion as a character. I can understand your frustration since I have done both but if you just give the real rp'ing style a try, while preserving your own lengthy style, then I guarantee that you'll be able to do something amazing my friend.
Count on it.

I understand and respect all the points you've made, but I think perhaps your review in itself is a little "strict"... First off, if you can't post 3 times in one week, that's fine. It happens to all of us at some point. But I don't think I've ever heard of a fed where someone could put up one extremely long post and think he has the whole card won. The fact that you make mention of that reminds me of our other "rookie" Jonny Corrigan, who wouldn't post actually meeting his opponent in the ring but just write posts. In this fed (and I think in just about all feds, mostly), we RP WITH each other, not just next to each other. You can't possibly be RPing with anyone if you post once and bounce. Therefore yes, having a minimum of at least 2 if not 3 posts is necessary in any fed that is actually about wrestling and not just about walking around with a narrator voicing your feelings and chatting with people. Secondly, I have never had a problem with ideas due to restrictions on sex and language. To be honest, my last post for my current match is a good example of how little that effects me. Frankly, if you've been around as long as I have, you know when to push the envelope and when you're crossing the line. Too much sex or too much profanity just makes your post look tacky like you don't know how to write without being inappropriate, so why would you want to be able to so badly anyway? Using the aforementioned post as an example, if a post you have in mind makes that one look G-rated, you're doing too much. Period. Lastly, I think I can speak for all the rest of the staff when I say, you didn't HAVE to be booked for your first match. We gave that to you to give you an idea how we play the game here, because some people like to complain about things when they lose in someone else's fed. But mostly we just gave it to you to keep you interested and give you something to do while you waited for the match you came here for, which by the way was against me if you don't remember, and you didn't even show. Not sure how you can really judge a fed you only posted once for, and not for the match you yourself say should have been your only match, but I'll leave that alone... All in all, I appreciate your interest in making this place great, as this is the goal of everyone behind the scenes of REW. I just ask that you take more things into consideration, perhaps by talking to all the staff in more depth about your expectations, before casting your judgment out on us. I believe we don't need as much fixing as you might think...  |

Seriously? Did you really just say all of that? You come here ask for a match against our best, and then complain because you lost the match, because of failing to follow the rules. They are all clearly posted, and if you wanted a feel of what this fed is really like you should have followed them.
And furthermore, when I put you in a match against Blake, one of the two top guys in this fed, you didn't even show up to the match!
You don't like the way we play then fine, take your ball and go on home. We didn't ask you to come in and rate our fed. We didn't ask you to tell us what we are doing wrong, in your eyes.
Don't get me wrong, I think you could be one hell of a competitor, I read the one post you did put up and I liked what I saw. That match against Homie I gave you so you could get accustomed to our rules, and the way we did things around here. I never told you he was the best we had. Hell I even said that he was just a match to put you in for the PPV so that you didn't feel like we were ignoring you.
I agree with what Scotty, Jayson, and Blake all said. If I could add more believe me I would, but they said what I have on my mind. And now my rant is done. |

Haha, simmer down Caius. Though don't get me wrong, I agree perfectly with all that he's stated. What he forgot to say was, the staff is deliberating over giving you a crack at running a card your way, to see if it may help REW. Caius shall be the one to get back to you with a clear cut answer once a verdict has been passed. Thank you Mr. Peterson, and hopefully we'll see if you can't do better, shall we? |

I agree wtih all that my collegues have stated here...Daniel, the only thing you have against this fed is that it is different then the crap you have experienced.

I was in no way disrespecting this efederation. I just find it virtually impossible in my day and age to post three roleplays a week when I gotta attend school and go out. I asked for one match because I'm full time in FcW, and I cannot take LOA in risk of dropping the Cruiserweight Championship.
I'm a busy man, unlike many of you, I don't see how you all pretty much shat on me, when all I was doing was noting some flaws I saw. Stating my Opinion.
But fine, if you want to have it that way, I think I'll do what you said, Caius. I have no ball, I have two unlike all of you. Goodbye, dickheads. |

Lol. Wow... Ummm, hey everybody. The GoldenBoy Award has just been given to Daniel Peterson, or Tomlinson, whatever it is you call yourself. I'll admit that Caius may have gotten a little heated with you, but the fact remains that truly no one ASKED for your opinion. Not to say that you don't have the right to give it, but you honestly didn't DO much for anyone to give a lick about what you think. You posted once. Against BigHomie. Not to knock BigHomie, but we all know that's not the match you came here for. And if I am a full-time student with straight A's and work 20hrs. a week AND have time to go out AND post 3+ posts in this fed, then I'm sure you can too. Stop exaggerating, bro. We're ALL busy. If we weren't this fed definitely wouldn't need you or your input, believe me. The truth stands that you posted once, no-showed your match against me, and then thought you had the right to speak on what could be done better around here. If you don't see the problem with that, I'm wasting my precious time with you. As Scotty has already stated, we would be more than happy to have you here and have your input. But just as I tell everyone else already here, you have to actually DO something for your voice to be heard. And the namecalling...? Seriously bro, we have 15-year-olds playing this game with more maturity than that. I have two balls, same as you, same as every other male here. Lighten up. Anyway, stay and that's fine. Leave, that's fine too. No offense, but I don't care either way, REW will live either way. Just realize that you will have left looking rather foolish instead of leaving with some respect, as I would have loved to give you. Trouble is, leaving now just kinda makes you look butt-hurt 'cause no one cares what you think, when they really have no reason to. Perhaps if you actually did something worth caring about here during your stay, this would have gone over better. But alas, you didn't really do that, did you? No... no, you didn't... Thank you, and come again. |

Well, well, well, a fellow FcW star. Oh and look, he's got a huge-ass ego like the rest of them. Blake, Caius, Scotty, any of you that do the booking, if Daniel has a set of balls like he says he has, let him face me. I've only won my debut match, so it'll be about even. Oh and I hope you checked out the battle royal, Daniel. Because that's how I really feel about FCW. Ok, I've said my piece. I apologize if my actions have upset REW management, but...I have a grudge against that place.
