    I took evilsnooper and recycled for this week.

    evilsnooper review



    Main: Worth 10 points each

    Intelligence: This user shows that he has great potential for intelligence but basing it off 16 entries is quite a hard task. I would not say he is dumb, and from the artwork he displayed, he is quite talented, but nothing really set me on fire or probed my mind. It could be the age difference, seeing that he is 15 and I am 22, but he strays from slang and internet terminology, although his sentence structure and large amounts of quizzes really hold back from actual content. 4/10

    Emotional Value: Sadly, no. He has some typical teen angst- which let's face it, we've all had at that age- however, he had some interesting opinions on relationships and how he feels high school relationships were useless- I tend to agree and felt similar in high school. Usually he slightly includes how he feels but its cover with conversation and not any real depth, but it is there…waiting to come out. 4/10

    Individuality: This is a hard one. His artwork makes him stand out, and the little neat spacer graphics and things he makes caught my eye- but his words did not. I did not really get any idea of who he was by reading his journal, other than he is artistic and focused with school. 4/10

    Customization: It has a background, colors done a little bit, and slight changes here and there. Typical customization but not advanced. It was somewhat busy but it suits him, or what I felt that I got from him. However, I fond it annoying that so many things moved in his journal. 5/10

    Courtesy and grammar: Hmm… no LJ cuts, spelling, and grammar were sparse. He knows how to write properly and spell for the most part- but a lot of his entries were rushed or thrown together- no real paragraph breaks or structure though 3/10

    Sub Categories: Worth 5 points each

    Journal mechanics:

    Bio: no bio what so ever. In fact, I do not think anything is included in the user's information. 0/5

    User Pics: They have two icons and he is a free user. One "Don't label me" I like very much, the other is the Foo Fighters logo, which is fine as well. There really isn't an apparent theme to the journal though so they are just okay to me. 2/5

    Contactability: Not very, you can only comment on the journal. There is no information of who the person is other than in his journal you can find that he is 15 and his name is Christian. 1/5

    Quantity: There are only 16 entries, the last in November. The entries started out somewhat patterned but grew less and less. 0/5

    Blurty Involvement: None really. Decent amount of comments, but only two friends and no communities 1/5

    Journal Style:

    Impression: I felt that I didn't really learn anything from the person, but it wasn't terribly bad to read. I related to some of the content, but overall I would not read it, if he updated. 2/5

    Sense of Humor: Yes, they were, a lot of them made me chuckle, even though all the quizzes were a bit much some of them were funny and a lot of his angst filled comments were humorous, not in a mean way either, just that I could relate. 3/5

    Style: If it is style, then yes. His style is choppy but consistent even though I found it somewhat hard to read. He takes time to post pictures/quizzes/other relevant material 2/5

    Openness: He seems quite open with his entries and from the sounds of it some people do read it and have said things to him, at school…but he still posted even after that and did include a lot of personal things outside of school and everyday life. 3/5

    Bonus: nothing really.I wish him the best with school and his art! 0/3

    Total Score and then provide the following to go along with it:
