Reviews reporting thread

You mean this one I think? http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=534737

The review doesn't say much about anything but it's probably not violating any rules.
Unless this user (who registered just to bring this album down) would already have another account.

Under each review there's a link that points directly to this thread. If you click on "Report this review" we see also the link. If the album has a lot of reviews finding the one that you are reporting can be hard.

Don't be scared matey as we welcome the feedback and will always investigate on your behalf. Judging by his member page his one star ratings run the whole gamut of  12 sub genres of Prog. If he wanted to attempt ratings manipulation he would normally 'scattergun' a volley of 5 or 1 star reviews towards a select few individual artists or individual sub genres. Yep, he spends wads of wonga on lots of albums he professes to loathe but it's his loss.

The weighting system of reviews employed on PA makes such attempts at ratings manipulation by rank and file members utterly futile anyway. Welcome to the forum.

Can somebody fix and delete that rating? I really don't want to listen to that album, one review says it's really bad haha. For the love of nipple, help me out.

Thick As A Brick is hella more symphonic. Aqualung is still frimly rooted in the blues rock with some proggy explorations here and there.Good classic rock, but it doesn't has the progs IMO.

He should be removed from the site and his ratings wiped out. I know his ratings don't make a great deal of difference overall to the average rating of the works, but it's a matter of principle.

It never stopped Henry P (though he never posts reviews)
