A big thank you to reviewers 396, 319, 399, 374, 19, 309, & 226
I was a previous member of TAXI and got a few forwards and deals back then. I've rejoined and am having good success with forwards this go around but wanted to mention what I see is the biggest value in TAXI: getting criticism from reviewers who are pros in the industry and know their stuff. That, to me is the single most valuable thing about TAXI and has taken me from a guy who couldn't write a hook to save his life to pretty decent at it. Whether I was forwarded or returned, the criticism gives feedback and helps calibrate what's acceptable for a particular listing and what is not, what improvements can be made in the writing and engineering. and a whole list of other improvements that can be made.
So I just wanted to give a big THANK YOU to reviewers 396, 319, 399, 374, 19, 309, & 226. I know I throw stuff out sometimes that isn't exactly on target, which probably frustrated you guys/gals, but it's to see where the boundary lines are and what I can push (or not). It's funny that some of the things I don't think have a chance to get forwarded do, and some I think knock it out of the park, don't. The only way I can find that out is trying and learning from it. So I'm grateful to each of you for the education I'm getting.
To everyone else on the forum, hello! Nice to meet you!

Hey Richard,
Glad to hear you're getting forwards so soon after returning.
I'm new at this too and although no forwards yet, I am also learning a ton from the screener’s critiques.
They are always very clear and I can easily interpret their perspective of the submission vs. the listing description. So far, I’ve agreed with and learned something from everything they’ve said.
I admit I’ve been throwing some darts too, by submitting pieces I had recorded over the years to hit some of the shorter deadlines, but my purpose written pieces have been the closest to the targets for sure.
The forums, Taxi TV and the other members are invaluable too!
Glad to be here!
