On each review, our users are able to submit their own review and opinions about that site. Previously, we paid 25 MobPoints per user review that was at least 500 characters long.
However, we feel that too often certain reviews have the vibe that they were posted just for the Mob Points, so in an attempt to increase the quality of user submitted reviews we are increasing both the characters required (now 1000, before 500) but we are also 4x'ing the MobPoints being paid out, from 25 to 100. Now there's a limit to max 1 paid review every 3 days, though, as we want to encourage users to really think about their review.
A good format for writing reviews would be to start with the "good" and end with the "bad" (if any).
We will evaluate on the changes at a later time, and see if any changes are needed.
Now, please go review
UPDATE, March 2018: We changed it to "max 1 paid review every 3 days". We may change it again in the future once we have more data.

Well,I feel guilty However, I like the new format very much- it makes us write more elaborated reviews and gives a more certain reward for them. Very nice decision

Sandmanilo, you haven't done anything against the rules per se, so don't worry - but we have come to the conclusion that the rules for the reviews were not really fitting any longer, so now we are trying to improve it

a very generous offer for the users of this wonderful site The BankrollMob. I do not know if i will often write a review because if i do that i will get even more votes with minus I usually have bad reviews about casinos and some poker rooms but in this online industry are a few that i like. I hope in the future i will write a few reviews.

I am absolutely stunned to find out that there are over 100 (20 poker rooms, 70 casinos, 3 bingo halls, 10 betting sites) review sections. There seem to be numerous diligent reviewers and contributors. I am looking forward to reading our mobsters' feedback.

I have just finished writing my first 1,000-character review. It was tough. Really tough. Writing a decent 1,000-character essay requires certain skills to systematically compose words, phrases, and sentences in multiple well-constructed paragraphs that concisely recite both positive and negative aspects. My writing skill won't develop and improve significantly overnight, sadly. I should have taken my "English Composition" class in university more seriously!

I wrote two reviews for pokerstars and full tilt but at one of them we did not arrange the order with good or bad. I was a little rushed, and I did not manage to put them in order. I hope is ok. I will do a few more just for all rooms where i played. It is interesting to read the opinions of other users if they have something to say and will want to do it. If we do not, read the existing ones.

I wrote 5 reviews about the poker rooms where i played and i still have one room. I'm sorry because i can not use it better the english language to tell a little story about these poker rooms. Is more work and i do not think you understand too much what i want to say. Anyway, i think these things will tell others mobsters in their reviews.
