Where did my review go?

On Thursday last week I posted a review for S2E8 of Fallout (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt36758871).  A few hours ago I noticed the review simply disappeared, like it was never there.  What happened to it? 

(I have subsequently reposted it - the one you'll see now is the reposted one, not the original one).

Hi grantss-

Thank you for reporting! Further reviewing, the original appears as deleted. It seems there was an issue with it which is why you were no longer able to see it. 

I can see the reposted one on your reviews. 

Cheers

Hi Maya.  This explains nothing.  Why was my review deleted?  What was the "issue" with it as there's nothing wrong with it?  In addition, why did I not receive a notification that it had been deleted?  It's bad enough that you randomly deleted a review but then can't be bothered to send the reviewer a notification that it happened.

@grantss- Your review was reported by another user and the the deletion was accepted. 

This processing error was already reported to the respective team.

@Maya​ 

So some fanboy of the show didn't like my review and reported the review, simply because they didn't agree with my review and then IMDB simply deleted it without verifying their claim.  The fact that you can't tell me what the issue is speaks volumes.  This is the same as when, out of spite, other users report reviews as having spoilers (when they don't) and IMDB simply marks the review as having spoilers without verifying.Interesting that my review was of an Amazon-produced show and Amazon owns IMDB...As mentioned previously, the least you could do would be to notify me that my review had been deleted.  Accurately reviewing reports before deleting reviews would also be a minimum requirement.

@grantss- Notifying contributors of a reported and/or removed submission is currently not a feature we support. 

However, thank you for the feedback! We'll pass this along to the relevant team.
