First: All reviews are considered legit as long as they abide by TER guidelines. They are only reviewed if disputed and it is just as difficult for hobbyist and provider alike to dispute. NO they won't ban for a fake review, it is bad for business, but they will ban for breaking TER site policies. Meaning, posting reviews from under a providers account. A provider working on her profile from a hobbyist computer.
Second: Having multiple accounts is a violation of TER policy. If a hobbyists wants to post more than one review of a lady he may do so, it simply replaces his past review. That said, it is supposed to contain new experiences that will add to the public knowledge of the provider and what she offers. If it is only a repeat of a past peformance it will not be approved.
Third: Reviews do have to be taken with a grain of salt as there are all kinds of personalities writing them. I am sad to hear that you put more stock in the negatives than the positives. That comment seems to read as if you open a review to see if anything negative is stated and then move on. I hope that is not the way you look at everything in life...only the negatives are worth reading. Disclaimer; I apologies if that was not your intent, that was just the way it sounded to me when reading it. The YMMV acronym has always baffled me...it should never come into play if you stick with ladies that you absoluetly want to see. Guessing on a lady really does not seem a smart buy to me. Flora stated it well in her reponse...the area where YMMV comes to play is where hobbyists just throw darts at a board and go get laid. Why hold it against the lady and score her low because you like tall thin blondes in thier 20's and you saw a average build short lady with brunette hair in her late 30's? Back channeling...the best way to pick a lady..I would caution you on that method. My meaning...you will find one of two people that way just like in the reviews. The ones that liked her and the ones that didn't, you will rarely get info from them that disputes thier side of the story. I will share you my one attempt at backchanneling and my results. It was a new lady as it usually is and I had two questions. Where does she hold incall, is it a safe incall and relaxing to be in? Is she an introvert or extrovert? I thought these to be very simple questions and contact all four guys that had seen her. 2 had her at 9-10 and 2 at 7-8. My respones to my questions from the two with high scores on her was everything is safe and she will take the lead or let you lead which every you want. The responses from the other two were, it is an ok location and she is there to have fun. The result: I went to see her, very unsafe incall she was busted 2 weeks later. She was very shy and preferred to talk and cuddle with no interest in going any further until I requested and it hard for me to move things along. All of the guys I spoke with had over 20 reviews.
Lastly: Ladies policing thier reviews. The TER system only has a commitment to over inflated reviews and nothing to prevent purposeful bashing. That being said, your statement is correct, some do have an easier time correcting problems. That can be contributed by a great many things. There are certain ways of handling certain situations and if the proper means are not used then things do not get done. The fact that you get more accomplished with a positive attitude and not a negative one when contacting TER will also have a great impact. Some people simply can not convey their thoughts in writing and that makes thing very frustrationg, those with a gift for writing can get things done more easily.
No you won't get banned for opinion or even moderated as long as it is not done in an attacking manner!
