That's not exactly how it would work. As stated on the reports, deleted reviews don't actually affect our adjusted rating or pass/fail/warn result.

Technically speaking, of course ReviewMeta can be "gamed", but it would require much more effort on the part of the seller to generate reviews in such a way that it wouldn't set off any warnings on our side. Basically force them to be very deliberate in their efforts. It would just add yet another hoop for sellers to jump through, making it that much more difficult on their part.
