Reviews: Setting default review settings to Prolific
Hhi, been away for a while and having difficulty changing my default review settings to Prolific instead of Helpfulness, would someone point me in the right direction to do this

I've marked this as an Idea, as there currently isn't a way to change the default Review sorting. You'll need to select what you want to sort by each time you're reviewing reviews.

I've followed up with the team that manages this and the default setting was removed awhile back.
Reviews are automatically sorted by Helpfulness, but you can also sort by: Date, Total Votes, and Prolific Reviewer by selecting it from the drop down menu.

The most democratic sort would be by date, although back when you could set a default sort I always chose prolific, which gives you the most thoughtful and experienced reviewers and helps to avoid reviews by a friend of someone in the cast who signed up just to praise a movie. (Note that the helpful sort could easily be gamed.)
It is hugely annoying to have to change the view every single time, but if you're not going to return the functionality to change the default sort anytime soon, at least change the default for everyone to date or prolific to stop the echo chamber.
