Hobart,
THe reason given by Taxi for this, and I'm not saying it's a good or a bad one, is that some listers come to Taxi needing a very fast turnaround. So fast that they can't take the time for feedback. Originally Taxi provided feedback on ALL submissions, so if they continued that policy they would have to deny their members the opportunity to submit to these time-constrained listings. They didn't want their members to lose out, so they changed their feedback policy. So they would say the modified policy was done to benefit their members and increase the member's opportunities. I suggested they might lower the submission fee on those type of listings and was told that since the submission fee is not meant to cover the cost of the screening (but as a disincentive to submit to every single listing) it makes no sense to lower the fee. All I know is you get more service for your money if you submit to the CRITIQUE INCLUDED listings than the NO CRITIQUE listings.
