i think lina.review is a good investment simply because the system that we have in giving reviews to a product right now is lack of trust from the consumers maybe because they are knowledgeable enough that some of the reviews that we see in the internet are made-up only or fake in order to drive the sales of a product. these are the market strategy that online businesses have in order to make sales. and with lina.review we can have a trust and transparent reviews in all the products and services. due to the demand now in the world in online business the reviews now become manipulated by large companies or reputation management industry. we need a platform or project like lina.review in order for us consumers to get what we expect that we buy online. (A quality products)

I’ve read somewhere, outside this project and not related to Lina that positive reviews can be bought and negative ones can also be paid to be removed and still another says that you can also pay someone to make or post  a negative review on your competitors, how is it then with Lina? Can a certain advertiser pay or give an under the table payment (bribe) to someof the helpers to give them a favorable review?

i think with the system that lina.review will build is a lot different than the system we have now in reviews. there are so much fake reviews so that they can drive the sales of a certain products or services. reviews now is being manipulated by large companies that can pay for reputation management. lina.review is a community driven that is transparent in a way that helpers or users value their reviews or comments because they will gain profit from it. and also to become a helper in lina.review you should have a high trust rating from the consumers as well. lina.review with the blockchain technology on its back will change the system that we have now, how we monitor the reviews, the transparency and how users or experts will give reviews to a certain products or services.

So your project is all about reviews? Well I think it will benefits for both costumers and producers. Giving a rate of suggestion in a certain services or goods may contribute for the wellness of all.
Producers will benefit more by this project, the evaluation of the people may uses as a basis of the company to improve their goods and services. However, what if there are people that paid by the company to support their products or to make a beautiful reflection to their products?

The underlined is one of my concern about the project too.  We all know that reviews can be bought, or anyone can create a fake review towards an  items, may it be positive or negative comment.  Some company hire shills to boast their reviews while others hire them to put negative review to the competitors product.   I have been buying stuff online and this kind of strategy is rampant.  So the question is, how can you solve this kind of cheating?
Paid shillers discourage the proper reviews of the service and since this is decentralized, it is hard to solve that kind of stuff. Promoters destruct the name of competitors and it is too unfair! Advertising may also made in this reviews and I think businessman will always make a way just to promote his products and services. We don't know the mentality of businessman.
I hope that this project aims to provide a fair reviews and remove the paid shillers.

I believe this will be the challenge to the developers of the platform and I am so interested to know their precautionary measure about this stuff.  Aside from that, how would they actually solve this kind of thing to prevent viewers to be mislead by this fake reviews.  Project Dev?Any input about this issue?

that they are aware of this review problems and this is exactly why Lina review is build. Lina.review would be a platform for reviewing on Blockchain, It will be utilizing blockchain’s immutability to produce the best possible review transparency. With blockchain it maybe possible to tract the source of the review. so people who give out reviews won't easily and randomly provide reviews from certain products or services. Lina review will also create conditions for reviewers to make sure quality reviews will be provided.
 

Still the review is done by a person.. anyone can review it on Blockchain, so the question remains unanswered.  I can state a scenario where a shill review can be mistakenly take as a legit.  A person can be paid to buy a product then put a review on the blockchain, either way, whatever the product is.. definitely the review will favor the one who paid the buyer.  

Lina review will have their HELPERS, they are users who are qualified experts that will review products and services on the Lina review system.
Helpers’ reviews shall be displayed separately from other non helpers review. to become a Helper, one needs to sign up with Lina.review by attaching CV, proof of domain knowledge, personal value, and so on. The applicant is only considered as a Helper after being approved by the Helper Board. And the approval for being a Helper will be more strict as the Lina review system progress. I don't know if anyone would want to go through all those hassles just to give a bias review for certain products or services. For Lina review business to be successful and be more credible, accurate and true reviews should be given by their helper. product Users or client of a particular service will also be able to give reviews. people can weigh the reviews of the Lina helpers and other reviews in helping them decide the with a particular product or service.


As long as there is so called inside job. Companies can manipulate the review. Eventhough there is a tough requirement to become a helper. They will make a way just to have this helper.
I said already that "we don't know the mentality of the businessman" they always searching for a new solution in order for their problems to solve. In fact, they will do anything just to provoke their competitors and to lead the dominance of the market.
I want to enlighten up with this problem because reviews will lead for a total manipulation of a company. Hoping that in the end, LINA review will make a solution for these unpredictable move of companies.

I am so excited to know how LINA overcome and take-control this type of mindset about "inside job" mentioned by CASTIEL05. There's no doubt about the platform they've used, Blockchain Technology is very strong and reliable platform because it is very difficult to tamper due to the "Proof-of-Work" mechanism. This will surely solve the problem regarding the transparency and reliability of the data being recorded. What Lina should be concern about is the INTEGRITY and CREDIBILITY of the Reviewers and Helpers aside from being carefully evaluated according to their expertise and skill. It's a matter of how will Lina.Review Leadership Team treats their users, reviewers, and helpers. The benefits given to the reviewers and helpers is a big factor for providing the most credible and fair review.

I must agree with you mam/sir i can also say that the reviews of the lina project are reliable because of the block chain technology that is very difficult to hacked because of the series of codes.
also the reviewers are given a criteria for them to be hired. So for me there is nothing to be affaid of.

This is great when would be the ICO presale? or is there any telegram group so that we can learn more something about this project?
Thats a good idea,i want to interact with the developers or anyone who has proper knowledge on how this project will achieve,i am interested to be a helper so i could earn extra bucks.  Cool

According to their thread here Lina is not just a website only but also a blockchain based platform so that everyone can build their own system to develop communities and participants and manage their own businesses. Aside from that before you become a helper you need to undergo with the approval of the helper board first.

Tell me how can this project resolved the biased reviews from the existing review websites like trivago? IMDB and rottentomatoes? these are the websites which are giving us wrong informatons about these products/services.I really dont understand why would there be transparency if the people wont know how these helpers reviewing each product.

The lina reviews has their own criteria on reviewin a certain products or services it is being paid by the people to give a fair reviews to the companies for them to have a good decision on what to buy.

I really am impressed on how LInA works on eradicating the "reputation management" of the companies that conceal bad reviews. It is really beneficial to the users because they already have access to transparent and trustful reviews.
It’s really impressive knowing that they incorporate blockchain technology to create reviews, people will surely trust lina.review and what they do is very timely. Im pretty sure that this project will be sold out to the market because of it’s idea to work on a review sites that sill benefit a lot of people (consumer, business owners, helpers etc)

How come they don't visit the thread and update people about the progress of their project and ICO. Even if they are busy enough on developing the platform there will be someone from the team must communicate with the people and the community just to make things clear. Even the spreadsheet in the bounty campaign isn't updated yet. Can anyone answer our inquiries out there ?
I guess this is the risk involved of the ico, there are some ico that if ever there is a big problem even they're not updating their community in the thread they immediately inform their investors and participants about the situation of their project. Therefore, since there is no giving any announcement it means the flow  of the Lina.review ico project was still in good progress.

I think that is againts their vision and mission. I don’t think thay they will accept under the table money from the advertisers because if this is so, it will ruin their reputation and they will be just like the other review sites. By the way they will use blockchain technology to be reliable in their review that makes them differrent from the others.

The reviews will be reviewed, if a helper's reviews are not consistent, the helper will be demoted.

 I DONT think that someone who made mistake or accept money to just have a fake review will be demoted! helpers will be the one to make review and if they will just be demote, then theres no use. i think one this mistake has been made, they will be totally out and banned on the team! sure of this!

It came across my mind,too, about the bribery to the helpers.How can Lina prevent helpers from getting involve with such acts and stay committed to giving quality and reliable reviews?

Bribery is all over the world, and that is why corruption is taking place anywhere.
This LINA is saying something that they will change something that has been in the community for a long time,
lets not jump on a conclusion yet and let them do their work. hope to see the new one soon.

There will be many HELPERS in the team to do the review, i think they will be catch easily if they will give a review far different from the majority,
This will be a huge project and LINA.REVIEW will definitely get numbers of reviewer, therefore one to some numbers of people that will make paid reviews will be reveal easily.
What am i afraid is IF lina.review will be the one to be paid, and they will just tell their helpers what to say.

There is a zero percent where LINA.REVIEW will accept money just for the bias review as they are looking for success of the future,
Their project and team are absolutely want to ease those paid reviews and will never break on their mission as it is much better profit for them,
as per the HELPERS can do, they might be the biggest doubt on this, but i hope not!

Some people live their dreams...destiny passes by.
The usual option for the users in today's review system is just "Good" or "Not good". And we cannot see it as accurate since people have different criteria when it comes to rating. What's good about Lina.review, there are different criteria per subject to be reviewed. So the satisfaction or dissatisfaction of the user is specific and obtained fairly.

For google you can rate an app from 1-5.  I think Lina.review will have similar rating and more. It's not a blog or vlog but an honest review or rating. It will be burdensome for users or consumers to view all reviews but to get the general summary of the  rating would be a good start on knowing if the product is a good buy.

How great lina.Review is. Many people are come to grief if they do not review some things that they want to have like for example buying products online,you can see only the good quality when you watch it in their video clip,but we do not know the real product behind the camera. We just focus on the result of what we see. But in reality we are not contented of the product that we review when in our hands. Is Lina review will help us regarding this matter?
I supported you on this matter, this is the reality happened actually in most online business. Where that is also the big risk of it, and yet the worst was that once the good is being deliver at your home you cannot opened it until the person who deliver it is not leaving, you can only complain in their online website. Which is Lina.review is the solutions for this things Smiley

It should some some positive and negative trust like what we have in bitcointalk.org so that people might know that those helpers are legit and not selling their reviews,so that the system wont be that easy to crack,because these greedy people will always find there way to make money.
It might not happen, why? Because the helpers will automatically remove from the service if the administration or the lina core will find something fishy with their helper. If the helper will always be given an opportunity to prove herself that she is not paid helper and if the lina review will turn to trust system, I think the helpers will take advantage the system.
In our life, we have only one chance, one opportunity to prove ourselves! That's why death is always the risk of life.
You might be right because if you are one of those helpers,you might find a way to get more profits even if you risk your reputation but lets wait for the developers to come and explain how this system will work.

But as of the moment the developer is not appearing themselves to accommodate all the questions of the community who passed by on this thread section. Unless if the ico reach the end of their campaign period then it maybe th e right time for them to respond  to all concerns. But for now all the concerns by many are depending on the whitepaper which has lina.review have.
But it’s quite confusing you know. Nowadays scammers are everywhere so it is also another doubt/fear for investors that the developer is not showing up. You know investors will be putting their money in uncertainty.

You may have a point on this one mate, but I think those people that who are greed will no longer be disappear in any form of business, especially in this type of business isn't right? So the better way for us to avoid this things is we must be careful in everything we choose to be involve in any project like this one.

I think this is possible, we really are waiting to see what Lina.review platform will look like and how will it function. I hope I can participate in the testing of Lina.review.

Well, you can participate anytime you like or you want. Because Lina.review project so far is encouraging anyone to invest to use their platform powered blockchain technology. So if you believe in the project, for sure there's no reason for you to think twice pal. Grin

Hi, everyone! What is the status of Tokensale? Do we know where sales will end? Roadmap after Jan, 15th is uncertain

I also have the same question. The dev here is not active I haven’t seen them replying to anyone’s inquires, which I think they should have someone to answer our questions. Im also looking at telegram if they have but I don’t see it. Their website doesen't say much about the status of their tokensale.  I don’t know now where to get some info or status about this.

Your question actually, is the main question by many of the community of Lina.reviews. But even the Developer of this project neither their team also is not active in updating the community, there are some of the member here are accommodating some of the other question we had it in here. Also if ever there is a problem on this project for sure they will give an announcement at once to inform the community of Lina.review.

It is possible if the advertisers will contact the helpers personally. Lina.review is a community based platform, as a prospective helper in the future, I myself would like to help would like to contribute in maintaining the integrity of Lina platform. Helpers are paid to make a review regardless whether it is positive or a negative one. If consumers will loose trust on Lina.review, Helpers in General will be affected since merchants will no longer choose Lina to review their products. For merchants we do hope that they will not resort to bribing Helpers. If they want they can invest their money in improving their products to be more competitive and to gain positive reviews. Good Luck to us.

One of the main problems in terms of review is having lack of criteria people who are giving reviews doesnt have any standards in terms or criticing a certain brand or  the product itself in this case the reviewer will be having some difficulties in which product she or he will purchase but in lina project in its platforms states that in every product or services there will be a particular standard given for the reviewer or for the costumers who purchased the pruducts.

I believe Lina.review had already some solution to this.  If you read their whitepaper, they have some qualification to be a helper.  This means helpers have guidelines to follow in reviewing certain products.  I believe that these guidelines will be their basis to qualify these helpers.  Though I wonder if these helpers will be the consumers themselves because if they are not then all their reviews will be questionable since they do not have a first hand experience on the said products which they reviewed.

I agree with what s31joemhar and BitcoinPanther's statements (underlined). In LInA, the Helpers have guidelines or criteria in reviewing certain products. If we will just read the Whitepaper on page 12, a table shows "The strengths of Lina compared to the current system". We can find it in the 2nd column and 4th row of the said table. It says that "Build specific review criteria for each subject with the assistance of available team of Helpers."

This is another major advantage of lina. Having this would improve user experience since they will be seeing specifics as to the product reviews they are viewing. Also, this would eliminate biased reviews since whenever one makes a review, they would have to take into consideration the review criteria existing.
When a user is viewing a review, it would become easier to compare a product or a service based on the review criteria they set up, hence it would be easier to identify ones preference.
