I failed to format it by paragraph properly. Help would be greatly appreciated. As it is, it's a poor reflection on the website, and myself. 
Your latest attempt is a blatant attempt at rating manipulation and this is unacceptable. In that review you have made the claim that you intend to do this on other albums. This will not be tolerated:
Quote Usually I will refrain from reviewing albums the average
ratings for which I feel to be accurate estimates of the value I would assign to them. My rating
could only raise or lower a general appraisal which I would opine to be fair, anyway. So I will
primarily contribute to the critical analyses of albums that seem to be over-  or under-rated. Gentle
Giant's Octopus would be one of such over-rated albums.
.
.
.
And finally, after having reviewed my? er? review, I can see that I've pretty damn well knocked
Octopus down for the count ? the count to eight. *Winks. 
 
 
Not big, not funny, not clever. Fix this now.
 
Also, the Admins will no longer delete your reviews so you can repost an edit and get back on the PA front page - learn to edit your own reviews, any reviews we delete from now on will stay deleted, including this one if you fail to correct it.
What?

And even more, I think you can modify the ratings as well, in case you might think about improving them with some more refinement .

You always have the possibility of re-editing your reviews without deleting anyhting.

Honesty I don't like what's happening: I don't like how the link to this thread has been posted. I don't like the smiles and I don't like also Tubes who has the right to review Octopus and rate it with one star, but having done it now sounds provoking.

I think nobody is showing politeness.  Unhappy
