Pitfalls to avoid in reviewing

[Quinno]

One I really hate is when PEOPLE POINTLESSLY USE CAPS LOCK TO MAKE A POINT OR ARE JUST TOO STUPID TO TYPE NORMALLY. *

Usually found in single-drop reviews and food/service rants. My head's reading voice immediately turns into a hyperventilating Victor Meldrew-style rant accent.

*(scurries off to check he hasn't done this himself years ago)

Now this is what I call a real pub.

Or...

This is the best/friendliest pub in (insert location).

[ETA]

Apparently a pub I visited recently had just been voted the regional CAMERA pub of the year according to reviewers on an alternative site...............

Just keeping us in the picture, I guess.
