Are extension developers allowed to keep only favorable reviews by claiming negative reviews of their product are "misplaced bug reports" and deleting them?

Twice Georgio Maone deleted my negative, 1-star reviews about NoScript, claiming they were "misplaced bug reports." Is this acceptable Mozilla practice for developers to keep their ratings high by deleting low ratings?

I have found that everything on Mozilla is subject to censorship and lots of it. If they dont like what you say then either your account will be disabled or the comment will be removed or both.

ikeepbees, Mozilla does not censor people so please stop with this claims of yours.

my personal experience is that it does happen

I have gone thru many on the add-on reviews, and many is the time I have seen bad reviews. Morally, one should not remove a posting just because it is against the product.

I agree

Thank you, ikeepbees and FredMcD. Personal experience has higher value than rules. Special thanks to you, James, for your reference link and jorge-villalobos's name. I will also post there.

jorge-villalobos does note that reviews that are inaccurate or use strong language may get deleted as this was posted in a older thread https://forums.mozilla.org/addons/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=11780

BTW: My two reviews of NoScript were user reviews on the NoScript Add-on download page, not a review for acceptance in the newly developed product category.

Should I rather call them comments?
