Hi, I publish an app which by and large gets good reviews (71 comments with an avg of rating of 4.7 stars). A while back I pushed out an update which changed some behavior that one user didn't like due to an unanticipated way that he used the app. Nobody else complained and overall I thought the change made the app better so I told him (vie email) that I was going to keep the new behavior.
Now, I would have been fine if he was upset and gave me a one star review - you can't please everybody. I would have also been happy to refund his purchase. But instead he chose to misuse the market ratings in an attempt to force me to implement the change that he wanted. He did this by creating a one star review every few days saying that the app was "broken" and needed to be fixed. How is this allowed? This is clearly an abuse of the market and is very misleading to potential customers. Why are people allowed to leave multiple reviews? Is there any way to blacklist these people if there is a demonstrated pattern of abuse? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
