" review bomb "

 [ "Review Bombing" ]

1: The act of giving someone or something a bunch of overly negative reviews using a multitude of alternate accounts in order to artificially decrease their rating out of spite. It's a dick move, but there are VERY RARE occasions where it is justified.

  * e.g.,  ... "My friend is quite possibly the most spiteful person ever. When he was in college, he once had an extremely awful professor who made his life a living hell. So, when he finally transferred, he got curious and found that the professor had a surprisingly good rating. Outraged, he made hundreds of alts and started review bombing the professor until the description was filled to the brim with negative reviews; the professor's rating was reduced to just one star. I said to my friend, "God damn. Thanks for letting me know not to get on your bad side!" And he just nodded."

1: When something terrible that the creators think is awesome gets reviewed accurately
