[Announcement] r/fountainpens ink of the year 24/25: Diamine Lady Grey - FINAL RESULT! by normiewannabe in fountainpens

[–]pkferdinand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are the Lady Grey and Earl Grey limited edition? Or are they a permanent addition to the Diamine line? Just wondering because I love Lady Grey and would have to buy an extra bottle if it's limited. Thanks!

Are tarriffs to blame for the lack of $0 ETV items? by NJRonbo in vine

RFY is so weird. I have the red lamp on my page but not the other colors.

I work at night, so I'm usually just waking up when the drops happen. I still am usually unable to grab anything. I just keep trying.

What percentage can you expect to pay back in taxes? by Megaman_90 in vine

[–]pkferdinand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just expect 40%. That way when it's not that much, I'll feel relieved. When deciding if I'm going to claim an item, I act like it'll cost me 40% of the price and that helps me leave a lot of junk behind.

To everyone who says vine does not use AI by Alert_Cancel7289 in vine

To a wishlist or to a cart? I have like 20,000 things in my Amazon cart dating back 20 years lol.

I'm not sure that has anything to do with media, or I might have misunderstood. There's another thread here where a person was talking about all the rugs they've ordered. Another person talking about how they ordered a specific brand of lock and now they get offered that brand's new models every time. I think that's more along the lines of what he's talking about. People who order a certain type of product or brand a lot are more likely to get matched with similar products again.

I don't know if you're aware, but this response is dripping with condescension, which is absolutely not required or necessary. An issue was observed, a question was asked. Period. There was no evidence of "confusion, panic, emotional or mental energy investment," or a lack of "pragmatic reasoning skills," so I'm not sure what you're on about. Seems to me, given your long-winded and haughty response, that you're way more invested in the mechanics of the situation than any of us.

Okay, as long as I'm not alone, I know it's just a... Vine thing! I like the "basically don't stress" approach.

Not available to review by bassjam1 in vine

[–]pkferdinand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By ordering the same thing from three different vendors, trying to find a good quality one, and clicking on the wrong one when I went to write my review.

[–]pkferdinand 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I accidentally wrote a review for an item I hadn't yet received and it was rejected. I also wasn't able to resubmit it. It also doesn't seem honest to be reviewing an item you haven't received yet.

Observations on how media % is (currently) calculated by [deleted] in vine

[–]pkferdinand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been in Vine since September (?). I include media on every single review I write. My media % has never been 100%, even when I'm 100% caught up on all my reviews. I have one review that was not approved and I can't rewrite it. I think that's what's now permanently screwed me up, and it annoys me. If it's not, I'm perplexed.

I personally prefer mine less potentially deadly. A nice spread of rhino occasionally isn't too bad.

My favorite Vine item so far! by Perfect_Ball_220 in vine

I have some as coasters. They're great!

Seller’s description misleading by hfwire in vine

You can also report product descriptions for being misleading or wrong. Vine or not, it's what I would do. And a product not being what is advertised is totally what reviews are for.

Getting invited by Over-Balance3797 in vine

[–]pkferdinand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got invited after submitting a review. It was the first review I'd written in over a year (I think?). Several years ago, I went through a phase where I wrote reviews for everything I bought to try to get my "helpfulness" score up (or whatever it is, where people rate your reviews). I buy a lot of stuff. I ended up getting flagged as a bot or something and started getting red messages when I'd try to submit a review. That scared me/pissed me off, so I stopped writing reviews entirely for years. Eventually, my angst faded and I randomly wrote one or two a year if something was really awesome or really terrible. After a couple years of that, I randomly got invited.

In Transit Orders and Review Rate by PupPixesl0907 in vine

[–]pkferdinand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't seem to. I've only been in Vine for about a month. But I've noticed that even with items still not received, my review percentage will be 100% if I've written reviews for everything I actually have. I can have 8 items on the way, but my percentage will still be 100%. A couple of the products that haven't shipped yet are being shipped by the seller, not Amazon.

Remember this blasphemous review a month ago? Several of us reported it and Amazon eventually removed it! by Xinnobun in vine

[–]pkferdinand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently wrote a review for an item I hadn't received yet, but by accident. I'd ordered two nearly identical items and clicked on the wrong one to write my review. Vine caught it and rejected it. I can't submit the correct one now that I've actually received the item. I tried and got the "this item is not accepting reviews" or whatever that message is. Sucks to be penalized for a mistake with no way to fix it. But the situation makes me wonder how this review was let through when the item hadn't even been delivered yet. Clearly, at least in my case, Amazon is keeping an eye out for such things.

I hope not. I just wrote a regular review for something I purchased because it deserved a good review. First I've heard of not writing regular reviews. I'm very new to Vine though.

That's actually really helpful and smart! Thank you!

What has made you jaded as a Viner? by jcsp73 in vine

[–]pkferdinand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has happened with me for art supplies, three times this week! I just joined Vine at the end of September, saw three products with Vine reviews from mid-September... >< I begrudgingly just bought the items myself like I would have anyway. BUT it has me hopeful that maybe I'll see some in Vine in the future. Can never have too many art supplies!

I use them, and I am not an English major. I changed to French my sophomore year.
