You're only allowed to review games you have previously ran a review on, your once daily review, and I think maybe titled member's games.

It was never intended that review limited accounts could get around the limit by having other members review their games. The review feature is one of the most developed things on site and utilizes a lot of server resources.

If it utilizes a lot of server resources, wouldnt it make sense to just review it once and use the same review again and again once it is reviewed? So now, I cant review the matches I already reviewed previously as well? This is just plain greed and scummy behavior from chesscom to get more money. Stop shilling for them.

It's not just server resources but also continuing development, QA, design, etc.

If a member reviews their own game, revisiting that review won't use the daily review slot, at least not for any reviews from after the code was updated to track it.

That said, I'm not shilling just explaining how it works and some of the reasons why.
