I only vote for records that I own, have paid for, have listened to a couple of times. With rare exceptions, like records my wife owns, e.g. Thriller 
I currently work my way thru the 1001 Albums to listen to before death. And there are some real stinkers among them like Ministry or Joanna Newsom, albums that caused physical pain. But why should I bother to downrate them? I am sure it is my own loss that I am unable to appreciate their beauty.

Trudat.
Or sometimes a band will have a preview on their website of the whole album.
In his defense, I think he's talking about before all that happens.

How does anyone not agree that rating an album without hearing it at least once is horseshit? It's something that I did a few times early on in my BEA tenure, mainly voting low without listening to artists I couldn't stand and as OP said, it's immature. I've tried to correct that mistake for songs and albums I know I still haven't listened to and delete the rating though of course some ratings are low because that's what I genuinely think.
