Forgive me for intruding on this utterly fascinating discussion that I really have no interest in (because I don't download illegally and rarely review albums from this century), but as this is a privately owned site, I believe any post or review can be deleted at the owner's discretion without recourse. This aint a democracy, more of an asylum where the inmates are self-admitted.

So, stay on your meds and don't introduce contraband onto the site, or Nurse Ratchet will get you with a cavity search.

Again, sorry for the intrusion, but I just don't understand why certain people want to flout a site rule that protects the site from litigious media types. Music Industry piracy lawsuits do indeed happen, so quit yer bitchin'.

Yep, some of the shrillest indifference I've heard in a long while

I retract my complaint.  I do not agree with a 1 star review just because someone does not like the label or genre.

Pretty decent review, he states what he likes and what not from the album, giving some detailed comments about songs. Nothing wrong here.

According to most sources the official release date for Opeth's Pale Communion is set for 26th August 2014 yet we already have 70 'ratings only' reviews. I guess it's probably futile but they should be deleted.

javajeff, I got your reply notification via email and in regards to "He states that he does not like this type of music. He clearly is not rating the album but knocking the band for not making his favorite genre of music." I too agree with you, if one does not like the music genre obviously he or she is not qualified nor does he or she have the knowledge/skills necessary to write an in-depth review with insight to that music genre, thus not being able to compare an album with another fitting within that same genre. This to me is quite obvious. I doubt one listens to music they don't enjoy therefore they are not equipped to discuss this matter, never mind reviewing that kind of album, seriously.

Why do we even allow albums added before release?

Still bothers me.

What's this:

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=1225195

... a 'review' merely consisting of complaints about not having the cash to actually buy the thing?

I have deleted the review plus a good portion of ratings only. What I didn't know, was that I had to to each one individually - meaning finding the members forum ID, then finding the right rating, and then zapping itConfused It takes aaaages doing this sh*t!!Angry Feels like Sisyphos labour to me...
If any of the other admins as well as ex admins could show me an easier way, I'd be much obliged.
