Negated Words Not Properly Captured By Vader Compound Score #123

Hi cjhutto,

I am currently exploring 'Vader' sentiment analysis package and tried out certain examples which seems to have failed in properly identifying sentiments.

For Example:

1) "Never experienced before this. I am a die heart fan of Salman khan. No movies ever skipped. " - Vader tagged it as Negative though its positive. 2) "No bad smell. Nothing to worry about " - Vader tagged it as negative though its positive. 3) " I love this shampoo but dont like the odor of it " - Vader tagged it as negative though its positive.

Kindly please help me how can i handle such negated sentences being correctly identified under "Negative" labels rather than Positive.

Your quick response would be of great help!!
