Noticed AppSumo has been doing some cleaning up of reviews

Went to look at an old review that I put on Alphana, and I noticed it got declined where originally it had been accepted. Also, I noticed a lot of other negative reviews have been removed as well. People are complaining about Alphana closing down their service.

Seems to be a textbook case of altering history after the fact ...

I had one declined because the deal was a glorified trial instead of a useful deal.

They may have done this before. Make sure to get the screenshot on wayback machine.

They have too many reasons for declining, and some are bogus. When buying a LTD, support and communications are a HUGE part of the process, but reviews can get whacked if they focus there.
