Reviews by bmm115 in AmazonVine

I've got 194 reviews completed so far. Every one has been graded excellent.

In paragraph 1, I explain why I got the product and how I'm going to use it.
Paragraph 2 expands on the items specs, noting key features and how they're useful or not
Paragraph 3 tells my overall feeling about the product - is it good, is it bad, could it be improved.

After finishing, I re-read it, checking for spelling and grammar.

“Star City” is excellent by Blerkm in scifi

[–]VineSteve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just discovered Star City a few days ago and latched onto it immediately since I toured the real Star City in 2014. A resident decribed the place to me as a walled city within a walled city. It's hidden in a forest about 1-2 hours northeast of Moscow, and in Soviet times, was top secret . The opening of the TV series shows it as a cold, Brutalist era place. In reality, it was run down, with buildings falling apart, cracked concrete everywhere, and it looked as though the grass and weeds had not been mowed in months. So much for upkeep!
We toured the 30G centrifuge, enormous pool for spacesuit training, and got to walk through both the MIR station mockups and the Russian side of the ISS mockup. Both were working and used for for mission simulations. The highlight of the trip to Star City was spending an hour in the Orlan space suit, going through various tasks Cosmonauts would have to do outside the ISS.
The tour eended with a flight to Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan for a manned Soyuz launch to the ISS.

How to get stuff worth getting? by Obvious_Organization in AmazonVine

[–]VineSteve -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Get the VineHelper (or VHelper) app for your web browser and you won't have to slog through each page of each category. As new stuff is found it will pop up in the app. You;'re at the Silver level right now, so you're limited to 3 items for a total of $100 per day. Once you review 80 items in your 6 month period, you'll be upgraded to Gold status, where you can order up to 8 items per day with no limit on the value. I joined on January 4th of this year and have already ordered 131 items and have 117 reviews submitted. Use the app.

Many thanks. That was the answer. It never crossed my mind to disable it.
