Don't Blame Me
As a webmaster, I get all sorts of messages, comments and mails. Of course, I am enjoying reading all the good comments, saying your website rocks, your review rocks, etc. I get those everyday, and I love getting those. But, sometimes, not often, I also get hate mails, saying your website sucks, your reviews are all the same, your grammar sucks, etc. Well, I thought I need to clearfy something here. First of all, I don't mind getting hate mails, I read those and throw them in the trash anyway. Sometimes, I might find something I can improve on, so I always welcome hate mails. Second of all, TVB Square doesn't suck, if it sucks, how can it survive more than 3 years? How did it grow bigger and bigger? Third of all, my reviews are not the same. Sure, sometimes, I use the same line in most of my reviews, such as, "who and who look cute together". How else am I suppose to describe a good chemistry better? I admit I use the same line over and over, but that doesn't means all my reviews are the same. Gosh, I got some reviews over 2000 words, and some under 500, how do they the same? Finally, I admit my grammar sucks, I guess the only reason is that, I am not American, and writing English is not my top skill. I can totally make the entire TVB Square a Chinese site, but that only attracts the Chinese audiences, I want to attract international fans, that is the whole reason why TVB Square is in English...
By the way, you have to realize that I am the ONLY webmaster for TVB Square, it is hard to manager a successful website withouth any help. So, forgive my grammar, if you will. Or else, just keep throwing me those hate mails, I will take those seriously before I throw them into the trash can.

Just wanted to tell you that I love your site! Those who do not should just NOT come here. If they do not like your reviews, that's their problem, not yours. Afterall, this is your private blog and the reviews are YOUR opinion on the shows. My point is, ignore those people. And, thank you very much for posting in English and not chinese...:)

Oh my gosh, if you don't like her polls and her reviews, don't bother reading them. the point is, she freakin takes time out and WRITES these reviews and MAKES polls. SHe puts alot of time and effort into making this site awesome so all of us who can't understand chinese can catch up on what's going on with TVB. SO why don't all you haters just shut up and stop critisizing. If you guys think her stuff is so bad, why don't you go make your own page and quite whining?

Constructive criticisms help benefit people. If you cannot stand criticism, then you would need to grow up.

This is not directly said to the owner of TVB Square, but for the stupid person who posted it. You should carefully analyze the statement before directly jumping to your conclusions.

This website is okay...I guess...Well if you get hate mails they actually help you improve. For some reason this comment section seems like a forum. I know, I am weird. 'Sticks and stones may break my bones but words may never hurt me'. Even though many people agree to that, sometimes it isn't right. Words can hurt people's feelings. But anyways, she needs to update more.

I guess to each his own but please be constructive or kind whomever has something negative to say. We should be thankful there is an English site, a rare gem, I would say.
Webmaster....no sweat!!! You ARE the best. Do not let a few bad apples spoil your day! Cheers!

I just wanted to say to Poster#3 (is it so hard to come up with an alias?) who commented that the reviews were biased: What are you expecting? Of COURSE she's gonna praise her favorites and dog her ones she doesn't like. That's the whole essence of a review. They're supposed to be biased. Gawd...

I just found this site on google a couple of months ago, and i've been coming back to visit since then. Yes, I agree that her site needs to be updated more often, yes, I agree that her reviews are quite biased, and YES I also agree that her grammar isn't necessarily the best in the world, SO WHAT??? She actually takes the time to create this site in English for non speaking or non reading chinese people so they can also enjoy the chinese entertainment industry! I bet that those stupid ppl that send hate mails saying this and that sux or wtv can't even sign up for an email address on their own!!!

TVB Square does not suck whatsoever! I enjoy coming here and it is one of the best websites ever devoted to TVB. So what the grammar factor isn't one of the best? No one is perfect. Keep up the good work!

Truthfully, I think this site is average as of now, but from a devoted TVB fan's viewpoint, I am glad you keep up with this site. Although this site could be better, you've put up a lot of hard work and time to make it interesting and unique compared with other sites. There are some things I can find only at your site but not at others. Keep up the good work, and I am sure in the distant future, your website would be one of the best.

I completely agreed with Lisa, that your site is the best English TVB site!
I can't read Chinese and I am in UK, so when I stumbled upon your site it was like I found treasure. You can't imeagine how happy I was to be able to read all the TVB series and stars news in English. Thank you for making my day.
I really admire all your hardwork in keeping this blog and TVB Square going on. Keep up the good work. Thumbs up!
