IMDB seems to becoming another of the left leaning pc obsessed websites removing all but the important shill reviews that skew the system!

It seems IMDB are joining the ranks of the loony left libtard PC obsessed brigade I mentioned the word Lesbian in a totally inoffensive but descriptive way and the review was declined twice.

Use of Profanity in Reviews - #230415-220322-948204

I recently reported a review - #230415-220322-948204 - for use of profanity: the word “piss”, to be precise. IMDb has a parents’ guide, where people can be warned about profanity used within a script, but the submission guidelines are clear about use elsewhere in the page: “Also, please do not inc

IMDb won't let me post my review until I "modify" it. What does that mean? This is so frustrating.

Better management of bad quality reviews

Recently i have been rewatching Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, and have been following along on the IMDb pages because I like to read the trivia postings. On a few of the episodes, however, I have seen some absolutely terribly written reviews, all left by the same person.  This reviewer obv

I've done multiple reviews here, that posted, yet now I see only one?

I haven't done a lot of reviews, probably less than 10, but I certainly have done more than just a single review. I don't spend a lot of time here either, so I don't stay up on a lot of the current "state of affairs" for IMDb if you will. These reviews had posted, yet when I looked today, there

There does not seem to be rhyme nor reason to when reviews are posted.
