^ Might be appreciated if we drop the 'reviewer' a PM or an e-mail, to thank him/her for the notification and invite them to the forum.

Yep, the main issue is that those reviewers appearing still in black are from a time where the e-mail registration wasn't required... if he had visited us at least in the past 12 months he had the opportunity to update his account and his name would appear in blue.

Wow, this afternoon I was only the second person to rate it and first to review it. It now has 7 ratings and 3 reviews. Never realized my reviews could make an album popular...
Serioulsy, though, it appears to be Egyptian Kings all over again...
And I'm not ashamed of giving José Cid 4 stars either.
 EDIT: I stand corrected, we nowhave 8 ratings and 4 reviews. Sort of. Edited by Kotro - December 23 2007 at 17:59 |

Texts erased and ratings left... it's a shame that the forum rules had been disregarded that manner.
If those guys want to do a real "review", respecting other people's opinion I'll leave room for them (not before a warning, indeed).

Progarchives become a Post-Dictatorship? What shame... Retro Minds Amen! I thought that you guys were more open minded. (Atkingani: Relativamente às reviews, soube por via de mensagem. Os meus amigos decidiram votar no álbum. Não sou Salazar para impedir alguém de fazer o que quer que seja. Vim ao fórum, a minha participação reservou-se ao fórum. Não participei na votação do álbum mencionado sequer. Não quero saber das reviews para nada. Enoja-me é as atitudes típicas do derrotismo saloio português.) André Pousadas |

Such abuse could be avoided if there was an option to comment on a review available. |

No one is forbidden to submit reviews whenever the rules are respected. If those guys wish to submit new texts I see no problems.
Ninguém está proibido de fazer resenhas, André, desde que as regras estabelecidas sejam respeitadas. Se os resenhadores quiserem refazer seus textos considerando essa premissa, não vejo problemas.

I just went on a mass reviewing spree- i've totally littered the main page
 . I really don't see the point of copying reviews, if people are trying to get their numbers up so their invited to become reviewers then they really are going about it the wrong way.

That's correct... reviews are there to let one expresses his/her opinion about the album not to comment about other people's opinion.
There's a specific forum to discuss, in a civil manner, reviews' contents:
If the discussion goes to the reviews these will be edited/deleted once discovered.

As useful as that could be, you know that would just cause headaches with the admins having to remove the "less constructive" comments. |

TRANSATLANTIC — Bridge Across Forever
Review by Ely78 (Elizabeth)
Well I can understand the nature of the message (unfortunately, I can't understand what Ely specifically means through the message), but it's quite personal for a review. Edited by Ricochet - December 26 2007 at 16:14 |

Look at Almuadem's Nimrodel's album page. Apart from a three star review of Kotro (whom I don't suspect of anything) we've got there:
- member zeus1 (Joined date: 12/23/2007 | Posts: 0| Last visit: 12/23/2007 5:36:26 PM EST) -  , only rating (and that's his only rating)- member robert_bing (Joined date: 12/23/2007 | Posts: 0| Last visit: 12/23/2007 5:10:31 PM EST) - , review (his only one)- member Mozarttaler (Joined date: 12/25/2007 | Posts: 0| Last visit: 12/26/2007 5:42:18 PM EST) - , review (apart from this one he also posted ratings without reviews for three major albums - looks like a smoke-screen to me - all four within ten minutes)- member tellius_pontius (Joined date: 12/26/2007 | Posts: 0| Last visit: 12/26/2007 10:14:29 AM EST) - , review (his only one)This way the album in question has got now a 4.71 rating and became The Most Popular Album in the last 7 days (featured on the front page). Doesn't it look suspicious?  Edited by Tuzvihar - December 26 2007 at 19:19 |

The last review of the Genesis album Duke , I think its done by a guy called razifa is a bit odd, he writes a favourable sounding review and then gives it 2 stars but there seems to me to be little or no justification for it.

Finally I'm returned in PA, without my mother that after a resonant one

opinion is finally totally free. So this Transatlantic Bridge Across
Forever in my opinion is a great album but with the influence of my
mother... But this isn't the place for comments like this.
