I'm surprised that he didn't admit that he has sex with it LOL

The saga review by SMSM. If he's not serious then his review doesn't belong here.

^ Whether he's serious or not, what a crude way to get the review published.   It should be removed and the member PMd regarding the minimum protocol, not just the minimum word-count.

Disrespectful, at least (also a little mad...but not in a funny way, sadly, I'm always in for a laugh)

Well, he's in long enough to know what a review should look like. But one thing I can say for him: the last 15 words contain less typing errors than Arkadi's review of National Health's self-titled album (which was reported by fuxi on the previous page).

I just happened across this review whilst browsing. Whilst I applaud Arkadi's enthusiasm for a great album, it's probably not strictly necessary to refer to people who don't appreciate it as much as "retards" and "bitches".

That is terrible; will deal with it shortly.

...And gone with prejudice.

These two member review links need to be looked at.  There is definitely something suspicious going on here considering that the reviewers use the same review for several different albums.

Review by FanofProg022 with the review numbers:#2200623, #2200622 and #2200611 all have the same write up though they are for three different albums, two by Alan Parsons and one by Jon Anderson.
Then it is immediately followed by another review for two of the same albums by Andy011 who again duplicates the write up, review numbers: #2200604 and #2200600. Is this permitted? If so, doesn't it rather spoil the purpose of the site?

Right now there seems to be some fake reviews of both Jon Anderson and Alan Parsons on the front page. It looks like someone is just copying and pasting the same thing for these reviews and changing a few words to fit the reviews. There is possibly some kind of ulterior motive here but I'm not sure. Anyway, I just wanted to point it out. 

It looks like it was just addressed but I want to say that I noticed it also.

This web practices censorship. There’re reviews that are removed for some reason. There are bands overrated for some interest, such as Cheeto’s. Dark side of the moon is a masterpiece and not any of those albums that juxtapose ideas and cliches on and on. If don’t want to lose credibility, the reviewers have to be more rigorous and not giving trades away to anyone.

Tcat, your reviews are not better than other you criticize. You’re so obvious when you write, when I read a review from you, I skip it quickly. Study music and then you’ll be able to speak.

Could any psychiatrists in the arena tell me why someone would want to join a site, only to get themselves banned immediately?
