App reviews

[ Edited ]

This is the second time that my review of an app (and the first review at that) has been deleted/hidden by the moderators.  This is a brand new game, Yacht II (think Yahtze) and after buying it I gave my review.  After not seeing my review, and someone else posted one, I hit "write a review" button again, and lo and behold, there it is w/ red bold letters telling me that it is innappropriate language used and if I edit it that the mods may reconsider it.  The is my review:

 

"I bought this as my neighbor and I play Yahtzee all the time and since the overview said "2 players" I thought this would be perfect for us! Well..... No option for 2 players to play at the same time. One plays all the rolls while the 2nd person does nothing and gets bored, until they finish then the 2nd plays afterwards until they complete the game. So no two people playing simultaneously. Graphics are very choppy and amateur at best and most of all, NO SOUND! No dice rolling sound, no bings, bangs, doings, zaps or anything. Maybe this app would have been worth .99 but $2.99-nope!"

 

I'm still waiting to hear why my first review of the Printershare app was hidden and I would like answers on this too.  What good are the reviews if we cannot be honest, use APPROPRIATE language (what other language would they like me to use?) and try to warn others to "buyer beware"?

 

This is a dishonest tactic by the mods (whoever it is) that controls the delete button and tries to hide bad reviews of apps.  Perhaps if my review was up then the person who's review did make it, and a bad review at that, would have thought twice about buying the app in the first place.
