 Replying to [comment:3 Daedalon]:
 > Quote from the discussion: "The ONLY grounds for a review to be deleted
 are if it contains threats, vulgarity, insults or if someones personal
 safety is at risk." That list is missing spam and other inappropriate
 forum messages.

 Well, the discussion was specifically about reviews. Spam and other
 inappropriate messages are moderated as usual.

 > To me it seems that rating a plugin up or down based on something that
 is not part of the plugin (in this case, a feature of WP core) is
 inappropriate.

 It is, but I guess the "positive or helpful" rule is there for replies
 rather than original posts or reviews. It just happens, a single unfair
 review won't have a noticeable effect in the long run.

 I've posted a link to this ticket on wp-forums to see it anyone wants to
 chime in.
