Description

Right now we tell them they have to leave a review to rate a plugin, which is good, but people are incredisngly being silly and using this for support.

"In order to rate a plugin, you must also submit a review. Please provide as much detail as you can to justify your rating and to help others."

We should change that to something to remind them this isn't a support venue.

"In order to rate a plugin, you must also submit a review. Please provide as much detail as you can to justify your rating and to help others. If you are reporting an issue with a plugin, please post HERE instead."

Where HERE is a link to the support forum post form.
