I swear to god. I might have got deleted since the review contest changed a little bit. They had a screenshot of the news when it said something like "Rate 5 stars and we will choose x number of players to win" or something along those lines. The comments basically bashed classic for being corrupt and stuff. I'm pretty sure they said it was illegal to offer a reward for rating 5 stars or something. Don't kill the messenger but it was definitely there.

They never said 'Rate 5 stars' but, they didn't say it's okay if you write a bad review. Which made people think admins are asking them to write a good review about the game to boost up their rating, which is against the App store rules. Then they re-worded Iclassic news in a way that tells people you can write a bad review too. The point of the news is to make players write a review regardless if it was bad or good.

It's illegal to provide any sort of incentive regardless if the review is positive or negative.  

Think he means this: https://www.reddit.com/r/iosgaming/c...re_guidelines/

Did this get resolved or do you mean to say they advertised a contest then didn't follow through with giving out the prize because it was against the rules
