I know, it should be obvious, but I've had internet connectivity problems for months thanks to an international move, and am only now getting back to the reviews left on my account in March. Thing is, I don't see where I can rate reviews on the individual review. Did the system remove that option because I was so late with it?
Thanks for any answers, I've been through the FAQs and tutorials, but if the answer is there, I missed it. I attached a screenshot of one review to show you what I am seeing.
As far as I know, the system automatically gives the reviews 2 points if you haven't done anything within a week after the review was written...
Yes, I've passed upward that there doesn't seem to be any obvious info about how neglected reviews are handled, but the system should credit two points automatically after a certain time, so you wouldn't see the option anymore. I'll check and see if we can get a solid answer to this question put in the FAQ.
This makes me feel bad. I got three good reviews during the holidays. I'd have given them all threes, but haven't been on until today. The option to rate was gone. Well, at least they got 2-stars.

Two points is not enough; it should be 3 points for absentee authors.
If every story received only two points you'd have to review 8 stories before you could post a story of your own. And conceivably, that could happen. Especially over the holidays. .
Most reviewers read a story twice, and then a third time as they're creating the detailed LBL. That's a big investment of one's time and energy.
Bottom Line: The reviewer should receive 3 points for absentee authors.Reviewers should also receive 1 point for every 1,000 words reviewed.Thus, if you review a 5,000 word story you would receive 5 points.
