Preach IT!!!! I'm glad we can now mark ratings as spam but they still need to expire. I've released something like 20+ updates to my application and I am still dinged for version 1.0 because a user rated me 1 star and said "needs this feature". I've since added that feature but I'm still dinged for it.
