I don't really care all that much who starts the thread, but people who come into the reviews who weren't at the party to yammer on about nothing annoy me (I don't mean those that post and say "awe sounds like I missed a great night", I mean the ones that start talking like they are on MSN and bring up other parties that have no reference to the one just had)

"Like OMG I wish I was there! Sounds like an amazing time! Almost like the time when 8yrs ago ___ and ___ were at a house party and ___ did this? Wasn't that so awesome!

OMGWTFBBQ!"

Ensue 8 pages of reply conversation completely obliterating the actual review thread...

except people who post that didnt get in should be allowed to because they were actually going to the party. Not sitting around in their underwear.

I don't see the harm.

People start threads about things they've been to all the time, not just parties.

I'd only do it if I really wanted to go the event, but couldn't, and was genuinely interested in how it went.
Where's the stigma in that?

Honestly folks, we're all adults here...do you really care so much about message board etiquette?

Especially something as insignificant as this...jeez.

Karen, I agree with you. Much of what's being said on TOTA lately could easily be taken to MSN. I find it super annoying to see what people really have to say since I need to skim over the useless stuff too.

Hmm, same here. I think I've only done it once, and thats bc I SO BADLY had wanted to attend,,, but couldn't get to Toronto, so come 2am ish or so when i was still up at home, sad that I couldn thave made it, i started the thread, wanting to hear what I missed.

My vote is for no. You weren't there, how can you review it? That is all.

DA

yes, once a thread turns into 10 giant pages of crap, it's really hard to read.
