Certainly, LF takes tips: s/he can't be everywhere, so as EricH stated, send a PM to LF if you have true information. But beware: LF has a way of spotting puffery!

Enough formalities, on to the feature presentation. Informal tone, also, notice the punctuation usage, some would have used a semicolon (or even a period) after "formalities" also, some would not have ended a fragment/non-sentence with a period.
