I simply meant, the two refrains I hear a lot:
  1. If you gift books to reviewers, Amazon will remove the reviews, and,
  2. If you gift books to reviewers, they won't show up as Verified Purchases.

I simply want to see if I can drill down to the actual facts. Granted, Amazon can do whatever it wants, so it likely has shifting algorithms--what might work for one author mightn't work for another, based on other factors (duration of relationship with Amazon, self-pubbed or not, number of other reviews, etc.). It's an interesting puzzle to me.
