Yes, as what has become common practice by other popular plugins, we also request that our users consider posting a review about their experience after a few days of using the plugin. Shareaholic is mostly a free plugin and a lot of work goes into it — a review is all we ask for and it keeps us motivated…
Sorry to hear that the Review banner is not deactivating for you after dismissal. This is likely an edge case as our plugins are installed on over 100k+ websites and we haven’t come across this before. If you can provide more details that can help us debug the issue that you’re facing, we would appreciate it.
Here’s the code for how it works: https://plugins.trac.www.ads-software.com/browser/shareaholic/trunk/admin.php#L72
As detailed in this plugin’s FAQs, you may also disable the Review Notice programmatically –

/**

function shareaholic_disable_review_notice() {
remove_action('admin_notices', array('ShareaholicAdmin', 'display_review_notice'));
}
add_action('admin_init', 'shareaholic_disable_review_notice', 11);
You may also disable the notice by checking the following option under Shareaholic -> Plugin Settings -> Advanced in your WordPress Console: “Disable Review Notice”
