I wouldnt.

Depends. If they offer advice or constructive critism on improvement. Such as

Title: This is terrible
Review: The graphics were choppy, music didn't fit the mood and fps was slow.
That is constructive critism and shoudln't be flagged. (whatever else)

or

Title: This is terrible
Review: Should of added more scenes or added more characters (whatever else)
That is offering advice on improvement and shoudln't be flagged also.

On the other hand, this is abusive:
Title: This is terrible
Review: Not good
This is unhelpful and doesn't do anything for the author and should be flagged.

Of course, ratings also play a role as well as the submission.

There were only 4 reviews within both those links combined and if you didn't miss it you would have only gotten 3 points nothing more so you didn't miss much.

This is shit. Ive blown the whistle at plenty of abusive reviews that were not deleted. I see my none abusive reviews getting deleated left and right. People just cant say what they feel anymore. I can understand if somebody is like fuck you shit fucker etc. but people should have some freedom.

Ok my thoughts on review moderation.

If you lack the capacity to come up with constructive criticism, then it is clear you don't know enough about what you're talking about to write a review. In fact, you probably shouldn't even vote.

If you have the capacity to write constructive criticism and choose not to, then you shouldn't write a review.

If you have the capacity to write constructive criticism and include some in your review, then it won't get deleted.

So what's the problem?

The problem is the ones that DO contain constructive criticism, yet made have a vote of 0 anyway, are getting deleted.

I looked this guy up from wizardman's last posting. He's got at least 6-7 bad reviews on his two pages.

Or ones that get all tens and you say somthing nice about are getting deleted for being abusive. I just think all this abusive review deletion is agains the grain of newgrounds becuase some flashes are offensive and ar acceptable and I think thats great and shoulcnt be changed. But reviews are being deleted for being abusive. Maybe it should have a warning that says some reviews may be considered offensive to some people.
