It's not odd for a reviewer to give a low score for a lack of updates. Most member's expect that your site is updated on a regular basis and if you can no longer do updates, then of course that's going to affect your score.

If a site is charging 29.95 or 39.95 for a site that isn't regularly updated or is skimpy inside the member's area, then I think the reader needs to know about that. As a reviewer, you have to weigh the pricing versus the type of content (pics, videos, or just feeds), amount of content, AND the exclusivity (big one for me). I'll give a site a better score if it's exclusive but doesn't have a lot of content versus non-exclusive with a bunch of "filler" (a little on niche content and then a lot of feeds and bonuses).

As far as slamming a site for a lack of hardcore, I would agree with you on that issue. Rate a hardcore site as a hardcore site and a softcore site as a softcore site. When I write a review, I will mention that there is no boy-girl hardcore inside a site, but I leave how they feel about that up to the reader and potential member.
