Its hard to tell who is who on these boards I DO AGREE!!
for one to insinaute that one would fabricate reviews on ones own behalf is just crossing the line!

My dear, there is a lot of information in various forums and guys click on your handle and read reviews, your other posts, and the posts of other people in those forums where you have posted. Some guys who are primarily from, say, Arkansas, also read other forums and occasionally post, or PM some of the guys, in that less-frequented forum. Some guys also search for any posts with your handle to see what others have written about you or send PMs to other hobbyists in those other forums seeking additional info. The results of such inquiry eventually are dissiminated via posts or PMs.
With a thread as you have opened here, you are inviting a scrutiny because you question the comments of those who have reservations about a thin review (reads a bit like an ad) written by a brand new handle (in this case two reviews by two brand new handles). It is generally true that most hobbyists who see a review either gushing over a lady or berating her, posted by a new handle, are going to reserve judgment of such reviews, or outright discount the validity of same.
No one outright QUACKED the review, so no line has been crossed, but since the review is not the product of a trusted hobbyist, reservations have been noted.
Since you opened this thread, you should expect that soon every hobbyist who frequents this forum will research you and KL so as to learn all they can about both of you. (As a matter of fact, because I have posted here, they will research me too.)
Smart guys research just like smart ladies screen.

FYI, Mods look at claims/insinuations that reviews are fake, just as we look at those making the claims for any potential "conflict of interest". Although situations are indeed often suspicious, there is rarely enough evidence to remove reviews or admonish those who imply they are fake. The only exception would be the blatant "Quacking" of reviews, which is against the rules!
As Ufriend pointed out, most hobbyists just aren't going to give much weight to newbie reviews anyway but we all had to start somewhere.
