Firstly, nothing is going to stop people leaving fake reviews. But it would certainly help if it was a little more difficult to do so and putting some sort of time limit on new users befor they are allowed to post reviews makes perfect sense and presumably it would take almost no additional work for the reviews mods as there would just be a moving wall for all new users.
The point is that if 50% of them wont wait isnt is worth while to have 50% less rats. Every little idea helps to make the system better. Its not a perfect solution, its just one of many rattling around in my head.
As some one else suggested waiting for ten posts , i have to disagree with this because as Doozer suggested alot of reveiwers dont partake in the forum . And besides you can chalk up in ten posts in the likes of the "drop one " threads in a small amount of time.
As for alienating new reviewers , i honestly feel that if some registers and cant wait a set length of time to review , the system is better off without them.
Eeek, hold on, some clients will have forgotten our names in two weeks! I agree there should be a cooling off period, but not south pole cool.
10 days. Happy medium?
Also I think once the reviewer is approved there should still be occasional checks- in the form of confirmation emails sent to the lady.

Would people stop mentioning about Posting on the forum before they review , that had nothing to do with what i suggested. You not make someone post on the forum in order to leave a review . Some of the best reviewers here have no interest in posting on the forum.
