Flavor Reviews - now organized!

submitted about 9 years ago by kirktBring on the Diacetyl, baby

With all these great flavor reviews popping up in the last few months, figured it's time to give them someplace to call home. Now, the newest section of the wiki:

https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY_eJuice/wiki/index/flavor_reviews

I reached out to some of our reviewers to help populate the list and BAM the job was done overnight. HUGE thanks to /u/chrisdvr1, /u/cheebasteeba, /u/wh1skeyk1ng, and /u/jigsaw314 for running with this idea.

The reviews are all single-flavor reviews, organized by vendor and alpha under each vendor. If you know of other older reviews that should be included please let one of us know and it will be added.

Thanks again for the really great help in putting this together.

I love the way this sub is coming together. Over the last year or so, I've lurked and lurked gathering up as much information as I could.

After just getting everything put away and putting my juice on the rock tumbler, it hit me how easy mixing was today compared to when I first started.

I appreciate all the info you guys put on here, it really helps!

OMG freaking awesome! I was always hoping we could get these consolidated and put into a better format.

Thanks a ton!

edit: There certainly has be much more flavor reviews than what was linked though, right?

Awesome, thanks for these! Added the Meringay & Almond; unable to add the MB/INW since there are multiple together unfortunately, good info though.

I remember year ago someone already tried to "organise" flavour reviews. This topic is very big mess (I mean all stuff is there but presented as big clutter and wall of text). If you ever get time it be great to include all info from this topic in your nice wiki list =) https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY_eJuice/comments/2ehekc/master_flavor_reviews_and_tasting_notes/?ref=search_posts

Beautiful. If I ever get around to transcribing the some 2000 pages of notes I have, I'll be sure to hook it up here.

/u/kirkt, a couple questions.

Is there a way to open up discussion in comments for reviews that are +6 months old? IIRC maybe that's a reddit thing that mods can't change?
Should there be a set format for flavor reviews? I've seen a few different ones, all functional yet missing pieces of info that other reviews have. Idk if anyone would want to set up some sort of template to use when reviewing a flavor or just wing it with your own style. Anyone else have input on this?

1 - reddit limit; no options

2 - I think so too. Chrisdvr1's reviews are good, but his formatting is not. I tried to set a precedent with my FLV Mango review. Take a look at that and let me know what you think.

Simple and well-spaced out, I guess if anything maybe bold or italicize the things like "setup", "testing", "flavor description" etc to make them pop out a little bit more.

Sorry dude,no offense meant. When I wrote this I thought it was a response to a PM. FWIW, your formatting has improved drastically from the beginning.

Nice but extremely limited at this point . Botboy reviewed just about every flavor on the planet a while back , that would be good to add.

Where can I find this? Or is it on the sub somewhere?

FML, I didn't review like any of those. Copy/paste from other locations. The link (flavor name) links to the original post as indicated in the main post!

Yes, make it a post on the main page, not a reply to my post.

Big shoutout to /u/texashex, and /u/thedirtyprojector for jumping onto this project, and another huge shoutout to all reviewers using the flair feature to help organize and catalog these reviews.
