Does an author of a submission have the right to ask that his submission not be reviewed?
I recently uploaded a campaign. It was done for humor and practice, and I decided to release it for others to enjoy. However, i is not the best quality and I do not want it reviewed at all. I do not want a bad review that could reflect poorly on my skills, nor a good one that would falsy report on the same.
Will the moderators enforce my request?

Hi Gasper! I'm not sure if that is possible, I'll have to find out from Tanneur, and hopefully he will answer your question here or via email.

Maybe you can just say "Please don't review this."
Here is a list of some possibilities
"Please don't review this, because this was done for humor and practice, and I decided to release it for others to enjoy, not to make it go into AOK best and not to win a contest. However, I know it is not the best quality and I do not want it reviewed at all, just to be enjoyed as it is."
Or
"I do not want constructive critism because I will not be improving this and if you give advice it will fall on deaf ears so don't waste your time."
Or
"If you review this I will reserve some voodoo hexes just for you"
Or
"Don't review this.Why? Because I said so.I'm from Compton.And I got guns."
By uploading his work to the blacksmith, a designer accepts our facilities/services for the visitor of HeavenGames, which includes reviews to know what to expect from a download.
We want reviews to be a valuable tool for both the designer and the downloader. If in your special case the designer is not interested in any feedback, we still want the visitor to navigate through over six thousand downloads with the help of comments and reviews.
Your submission is in the Demo stage, to avoid a review for it, do not submit until you finished your scenario.

No, there is a 'Right to review'.

Okay. That's all right. I'll just have to edit the campaign once it shows up and simply request no reviews. And hope the players are decent and honor that request. Comments are perfectably acceptable. At least I wouldn't expect it to score lower than a 3 at least. Sigh...
Well then, for those of you who are curious, it's called "The Battle of Sattlesbury" and will appear shortly in the camapign section. I hope you enjoy the all of fifteen minutes of it.
