I have found it hard to leave reviews on DTRPG. The last time I went to leave a review for a OSR rpg it took me four tries and 24 hours to finally get one to go through. That one was positive but often for either one it never goes through. Maybe I have been flagged or im bugged..dunno.

I've had the occasional problem in the past. I think there is a scientific explanation which is something to do with the process you use to checkout and how you go into the review screen, but I haven't quite figured it out. I also buy the odd thing from Wargames Vault and that really seems to confuse the shopping trolley.

I, at present am in contact with Drivethru due to sometimes when I try to purchase an item, it will not accept my payment.
They recognise the problem and are attempting to fix it (that has been about 3 weeks but they contacted me a few days ago, telling me they still working at the problem).
They upgraded stuff at DTRPG (as you probably know), and I presume they are still sorting the bugs?

I also had problems uploading reviews; I wanted to give thumbs up for a Tavern Master production, but it was all for naught!

But having said all that, I'd be lost without DTRPG these days.

I wonder if it was a review for an old product that is no longer available for purchase whether you can leave a review. Certainly, only Skyship of Lord Orink and Trollszine 14 are likely to be 'reviewable' at the moment.

Well, I just started a discussion on his T&T product, reaching out to the author (whom I couldn't find elsewhere). Maybe he'll join the bridge or submit to Trollszine or...

I think that you can only leave a review 24 hours after buying something on drivethru; at least that how I understood what it said in the help section. I think that's a bit sad, they will loose a lot of intersting feed-back, on products, that way.

All publishers on Drive-thru LOVE to get reviews and we strongly encourage them! If you are a fan of T&T or Monsters MOnsters,the BEST thing you can do beside buying our books is to REVIEW THEM! Look for products that don't have any reviews and put YOUR review there. Anyone interested in that product will probably read your review - especially if its the only one!

It seems I arrived a little late to this discussion. I'm the author or Monsters in the Hills - Tunnels and Trolls Version. Thanks to houndle for the review of the combat system. It is a bit different from normal T&T and MM! but as noted, you only need two dice to resolve combats. It was a lot of fun to write the supplement and maybe it will give readers some interesting ideas for their own games. Apologies if it's a bit corny in places.

(NB: As we're at the TZ deadline, I'm seeing everything through TrollsZine lenses but...) Not only is this a clean product for printing or reading, as I look through it, all I can think is "I would have liked this to be a TZ article....This would make a good article...I wish we could have extracted this..." Impressive work (and temzarian I promise not to recruit you too hard for submissions for the next issue, and I do respond to a simple: "No, Dave. But thank you.")
