What message do you get when you try to log in?  Are you sure you're not just forgetting your username/password?

I don't even remember because it's been so long since I tried to create/keep an account cause I just gave up. But no, I'm positive I was using the correct username/password. I think the message I got may have been something about the username not existing or something like that.

I don't understand why people would review their own stories under false names.  That's just weird!  I know reviews are nice and make us feel good about what we've written, but writing is supposed to be enjoyable and not a popularity contest (in my opinion). 

After reading about the star system, it sounds like getting rid of it was a good thing.  People can be nasty for no good reason.  Why would someone leave a good review and then give it one star?  Jealously maybe?

As for signing up, it only takes a minute, so there is no need for guest reviews.  I also don't get why someone would leave a nasty review as a guest.  It's really cowardly.
