FUD right after download
Oh sweet irony, right after downloading AOO 4.0, and before one even
gets a chance to install it, you get the same FUD review from a LO
zealot as part of the SF.Net redirect to the reviews section...
http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/1351/3ni.png
(those are SourceForge.net's user-submitted reviews, which shows the
highest scoring review "vs" the lowest scoring one).
Strangely, it doesn't matter if you select "most helpful" or "sorted
by date" afterwards from the drop down at the bottom of that page, the
displayed reviews do not change, it's always the same 5-star, one-line
review that says "a great alternative" vs the 1-star review full of
AOO FUD from someone who says "use LO instead".
I feel tempted to write a one-star review that reads "I'm a
LibreOffice troll and I hate to see AOO 4.0 released!" and see if it
gets displayed :-P.

Thanks for heads up Fernando, this has been fixed now.

Good idea. The problem remains as to why those two reviews seem to be
cast in stone...
It doesnt look like those entries are dynamically updated...

Or even better, write a real good review, praising AOO, but give it
only 1-star. We'll benefit more from the good review than we will be
hurt by a single-star review.

That page was for OpenOffice reviews, not LibreOffice reviews. When
you insert a review of a different product into a review page, that is
called "spam". It is legitimate to remove spam. I've reported this
to SourceForge.
Of course, it would be perfectly legitimate to give a 1-star review
with specific comments about what they don't like about AOO. I would
not have a problem with that.

You seem to have reading problems. The review I pasted and which
started this thread was a review posted by a LO supporter, on the AOO
SF.net user reviews page telling people to use LO instead. It is also
full of FUD, like saying AOO is not actively developed.

oh yeah? where did I say that? I cannot respond for the product of
your imagination...
>You are trying to abuse review system to misrepresent it.
No
> The last thing people need to see are freetards
Interesting concept, I will from now on ignore anything else you say.
Good night, *sshole.

Can you be more specific?
You are slandering your competitors' product by calling the small factual
review of it 'FUD'. You are trying to incite a campaign by misrepresenting
that product. You are trying to abuse review system to misrepresent it.
The last thing people need to see are freetards throwing dirt at each other
and arguing which fork of the same mediocre product is the best.

zealot as part of the SF.Net redirect to the reviews section...
That is an objective review, why do you call it FUD? Do you understand that
you are hurting OO.o more with your childish behavior?
