When you get an app with reasonable success, you will see

2. Negative reviews from those copycat developers.

And trust me, you will spot the fake negative reviews immediately.

And please trust me again, when you see those negative reviews from competitors, you WILL post a positive reviews in response.

I am not saying that you should post 30 reviews for yourself, because it is so easy to spot that anyone with half a brain can tell it is fake.

But don't get bother by those fake positives. It has ZERO impact on your app.

If you get bothers by vivianaranha, you probably will get a heart attack when you see a fake negative from your competitor.

If you haven't seen that, well, get prepared because it will happen if you have an unique and successful app.
Personal attack? No, I stated an opinion based on your statements in this thread. Lack of experience in the biz? Sorry for the business I'm in and have been in for many years is professional software development, but thanks for the personal attack on my experience.

Copycat apps bad, negative reviews even worse, again it is down to the morals of people who do such things. Would I post positive reviews in response, probably tempted, but I would not do so, unethical.

I am also not bother by the effect fake positive/negative reviews have, what bothers me is the opinion of people in this thread, and similar threads elsewhere that there is nothing wrong with reviewing your own app. The attitude put forward, by yourself in this thread, is that everyone else is doing it so you should as well (supported by your stating 100% of devs have done so), is just flat out disgraceful.
