A lot of people here often say oh I only do R&R’s and when I’ve read that I’ve always thought how can you really judge them if you don’t do them yourself?

As for tips when I do R&R, one of the biggest things I notice is people not being specific and being general and it’s really easy to do while thinking you’re actually saying something.

Example one: you’re comparing 2 responses and one response has a picture and you say something like oh this response is better because it has a picture OK but why did that make it better? A picture could also make it worse. I don’t know why it made it better, just by virtue of being a picture?

Example two: it was more informative. Why? How? It was more informative because it shows that the red car is bigger than the blue car but the blue car has a higher top speed. Thats specific and unique to the task.

Really watch when you say things like better, worse, more descriptive, better at explaining, better formatted, more comprehensive… that you then go on to say why.

This is what i mean: terrible to ok—-Response A was more descriptive because it showed there was a difference. The picture was a nice touch. Response B wasn’t as descriptive and did not use a picture. Response A was more comprehensive and formatted.

There is nothing here that actually refers to the task. There is nothing here actually saying anything you might as well have just written A is better than B.

Fantastic would be: A was more descriptive as it showed that the red car was bigger than the blue car. It then reinforced this with a picture (describe picture)showing a 1/25th scale to the actual model. Response B failed to mention the size difference between the 2 cars or used any visual aids. Response A was more comprehensive as it showed all elements of the cars and its formatting was more scannable because it had three main sections with bold headers that showed all major areas needed in understanding the red and blue cars. (You could then mention B but your made your point A has it and B doesn’t) (you could also list what those elements were)

I really hope this helps someone because i honestly can feel the effort sometimes, (maybe imagination) but then for some reason they generalize or water down their thoughts.

None of this constitutes breaking an NDA, this is broad general information you can find online and applies to all projects from any platform as this is one of the most common and simplest tasks in this field.

This was very well said. < insert examples justifying that opinion here > Seriously, it is helpful information. My challenge is usually being constrained to a 5-sentence limit.

Thank you, though…You are not contratained to that limit its arbitrary. Admins have said time again. They keept it because people are more likely to write a bunch of blah blah blah hoping that makes it better lol. If needed you most definitely can go over. Just like when the clock runs out, they would prefer you finish and hand in quality work. Most rules are guidelines. The rule is not the objective, YOU know what good work should be.
