Can't Leave 5-star review without a note

[#1]

As a buyer, I used to be able to submit a 5-star review without having to write anything as long as I did it on my phone app. This is pretty standard when you order a bunch of similar supplies - rave about the first one or two, and just put the stars for the other 3 of the same type (i.e., headpins in multiple metals or the same yarn in 3 different colors). Now it won't let me leave a review without comment, whether it's on the laptop or the phone. Is this a browser issue, an app issue, or a "me" issue? Or has Etsy changed the policy so NO ONE can leave a rating without a comment? I like to be fair to the sellers I buy from, but I really don't want to have to leave 10 ratings when I only bought 3 types of items.

As a seller, I get a lot of 5-star ratings from people with no additional comment. I'd hate to think I won't be getting reviews at all because they don't want to bother.

i agree - it would probably be better for all parties involved to have as few hurdles as possible set up for reviewing. i've seen "five word review, as required" before

I think you can leave a review without comment on some aps. On a desktop, you must write at least 5 words

@9ElizabethStreet   I got a 5 star review that said "please write at least five words".  It worked.
