TER General Board

Never say "never".

Obviously this will vary depending on the clientele and where the lady is advertising, but I wonder for ladies who put effort into getting TER clients, how many of those clients leave a review? Just always been curious.

And for you guys... do you always review? Only when it's been really good or bad?

Me... I usually review but if something happens that seems just too far out there to be useful to the board I'll pass. So for example, I once saw a super highly ranked provider (maybe 9.5/9.5), we got into the session and it turned out she had forgotten condoms, and we both believed in no glove, no love. She did offer me a partial refund and was nice and appropriately embarrassed about it. I thought about reviewing and giving her say a 6 for performance, which technically she deserved, but just couldn't bring myself to do that to her hard won average so didn't review at all. FWIW

I'm 4 for 4.  Due to my limited experience I generally grade according to previous grades.  Verbally I try to be accurate in my descriptions.  Of course I can't remember every step, but as close as I can.

I think a review is a nice gesture.   So far I had four good encounters.  I suppose if I had a poor encounter I would perhaps not review.  If I had a terrible encounter it would probably depend on whether it was malicious or not.  Then I might review in the negative.   Although that can backfire.  It might be wiser to let it pass unless it involves someone's safety.

I didn't think to ask my first provider if she wanted a review, and not my fourth because she didn't speak English well enough for a convo.  But otherwise I will ask now before writing a review.  

I doubt they will typically say no.  I depend on reviews, so I view them as good for the provider.  Why wouldn't she want more?

I only review once, even if I have seen them multiple times.

I hope it helps them do well.

If I have a bad experience, IE
The lady that thought I didn't leave an envelope full of money
The lady that wanted to change my date time by 15 minutes 90 minutes before our date
The lady that was so wasted she fell asleep blowing me
The lady that needed a little extra for her child for Christmas

Then I don't.
It was probably my fault

If every client of a gal always wrote a review, TER would need 10 times more servers, most likely.

I do review unless a gal has asked me not to.  That's only been about twice.

It pays to bring condoms with you in a sealed box

You have to realize that not all of us are gifted novelists.  Good writing is both a skill and a talent.  TER actually requires a play by play and will reject, at their discretion, reviews that aren't sufficiently graphic. From my research on provider reviews, I think the vast majority are intended in a complimentary manner.  

I noticed even on Amazon even the best products will always have few dissatisfied customers.  I wouldn't sweat an occasional bad review or two.

You guys screen us, and we should be able to screen you too.  When I know a guy's handle and read his reviews, it has a huge impact on whether or not I see him.  
   
 I don't like seeing the guys who write like pigs, using vulgar language and leaving a less than respectful image of his encounter with a lady.  When I read reviews like that, I tell that person I am not a good match for them.  I prefer to see the men who understand how to write graphic and explicit details in a respectful and tasteful manner in which the provider is not degraded to being nothing more than a piece of meat for hire.  
   
 With the amount of information that's available about me, I want that same amount of information available about you as well so that I can be more selective about who I spend time with.

Everyone's a critic. :-)

It's the vulgarity in which it is communicated.  
   
 There is a vast difference between...  
   
 "Her tits bouncing up and down while I was banging the hell out of her was more than I could take."  
   
 and  
   
 "The sight of her beautiful breasts while watching her in cowgirl was more than I could take."  
   
 I believe this should get my point across without any difficulty...

Close to 33% write reviews, possibly higher around 40%.  Alluding to what Julia said, I actually prefer women who read clients reviews, on the flip side, we read theirs and any respectable man will adhere to what a provider likes and dislikes.  I would say I don't have a system down as far as when I will write one, but rule number one for me is if the session was super hot then I will get the review out super quick so that I don't forget all the details.  I have waited as long as a couple of months to write a review on a provider and I have written one as quick as one hour after.

...and I always review a great time unless the lady asks me not to.  I don't review a YMMV situation (where I have a significantly less positive experience than her previous reviews would have indicated), unless there is notable negligence on her part.

between 5% and 10% overall. (that's 1 out of 10 to 1 out of 20 for those who are math challenged). I assume that's all clients, not just those with TER accounts.

I review approximately 25% of the providers I see. More likely to review a massage girl than an escort in general, partly because there are so many body rub ads on BP and elsewhere and so few of these girls get reviews that I like to think my review is beneficial to this community.  

Likewise, I'm also more likely to review an escort if she's relatively new and/or is seeking reviews. I have never been asked to NOT review.  

I'm far less likely to review a girl who has 30+ reviews. Really what more can I say that hasn't been said, and I don't need the extra VIP days.

To the OP who didn't review a highly rated provider who forgot the condom, I agree with your "no-review" on an incomplete effort. If she hadn't offered the partial refund I might feel differently

That number has been around a long time.  Tried and true.

I review every first time visit unless the girl says she does not want to be reviews.  Then again, I see very few who don't want to be reviewed.  

I don't write reviews for repeat visits, except for one girl who had been in a slump in her reviews

Where did you get your numbers?? 33%? 40%?  That's way high. This topic has come up over and over since TER began. Of course there are a lot of variables, regional and otherwise. If a lady only advertises on TER she probably gets more reviews (percentage wise) than a provider who advertised elswhere.  
Anyway the number that has always popped up time and again is about 1 in 10 write reviews, so the statistic I pulled out of my ass in the post right above is a lot more accurate than the statistics you pulled out of your ass. :)

it's your right as a paying customer and member of this site.  Some would say it's your obligation to help this community of mongers be informed, but I won't go that far.  There is never ANY reason to ask a girl if it's OK for you to write a review.  It's not her call.  Remember the "R" in "TER."  It stands for Review.

I was joking about being a literary critic.    

But all seriousness aside, reviews should be read as if they are written by men, and not Emily Bronte.

at the current time.

The only exception is if the service is below standard compared to her reviews. Then it is only fair that I let fellow mongers know there is a negative change in her performance.

Of course a courtesy is never obligated.  But that's why they call it a courtesy.  And that's why they call me a gentleman (to my face, ha ha.)

You have every right to screen and ask for anything you want.  And I have every right to draw the line and give you only what I choose to give.  You either accept that or I move on to someone else.  Simple, no?  But there are many, MANY ways for you to screen safely without knowing my handle.  You can count on never knowing my handle.  But don't worry, I won't be trying to book you anyway.

without using my TER handle. And I've never had a woman ask me not to review her. I did have a very elite lady ask if she could read my review before posting it.  

It was graphic and tasteful and she appreciated it. On one or two occasions, I didn't get an answer. So I didn't ... I find it a PITA to write them because once I start, it becomes a novella ... lol

As Lester wrote, he considers it to be the courteous thing to do.  That alone is a reason: he wishes to behave in a gentlemanly fashion, believes abiding by the lady's wishes to be part & parcel of such behavior, and therefore he first asks her preference.

That may not be a worthy reason to you, and likely many others as well, but that is his reason.  Who are any of us to say it is not valid?  We each have our own standards to which we adhere.  ;-)

Another "reason" might be if one wishes to see a particular provider again.  If she didn't want a review for whatever reason, she might not agree to see that writer in the future.  Probably not common, but I'm sure it happens.  ;-)

"Who are any of us to say it is not valid?"  Gosh, I had no idea I had no right to an opinion.
Your last point is just lame.  "if one wishes to see a particular provider again?"  Really?  If I had a good time and wanted to see her again I'd write a positive review.  If I wrote a negative review, why would I want to see her again?  You are just goofy, Debby.

If a provider gets reviewed one out of every 10 times there's no way they can make a living. I've done the math on some of the higher volume/active ladies I know and at 3 to 4 appointments a day five days a week for a couple years there's no way they should have 50 to 60 reviews. Just saying.  

 If they're only adds are off TER then maybe one and 10 is accurate, I don't know. I've reviewed roughly half. Theres some I do not want to review because I don't want anyone else to  know how awesome they are, I'll pretend I'm her only client. Another one I won't review as she was unattractive enough that I felt bad afterwords and don't want to have to look at her picture or claim it, the body was good though. LOL

If the record of reviews for a Provider is PG, a reviewer might be inclined to write PG (to your satisfaction). If he is reviewing a Provider with XXX+ reviews, his style might be to reinforce that (to your displeasure).

if there seems to be a need:

1. New providers with no or few (less than 5) reviews... reviews every time.
2. A provider with no recent (reviews more than 4-6 mos old) reviews... consider reviewing.
3. If something is vastly different from other reviews... consider reviewing.
4. For a fantastic or really poor session... consider reviewing.
5. If she asks or I just feel I should (usually a fantastic session)... I review.
6. If she has a no review policy... I respect it.

Overall, maybe a review 5% of dates.

Not to mention a BP provider might see a hundred clients before ever getting her first review. A lady who does a lot of advertising here on TER might get one out of every three or four clients to review her, and a lot of women, especially the HDH variety try to avoid the typical TER reviewer and most likely only get one review out of every 20+ sessions by design.

Like I said, "one in ten" is nothing more than a stab in the dark, the real number is a varied as the hookers getting the reviews.

Absolutes just don't work well in this big world.  

Examples from my experience as to why it's a good idea to ask the lady if you can write a review:  

* Provider is UTR in general.  
* Provider delisted because of a "revenge" review that wasn't removed at her request and depicted stuff she'd never do.  If a new review were posted, her old profile and reviews would return.  
* Provider is usually ok with reviews but is super busy at this time (e.g. heading into finals in school) so she'd like to keep a low profile now.  

Of course, if there was deceit or some other bad situation that other mongers need to be warned about, the review should be written if the monger wants to do it.

Of course as paying customers we can flatly refuse to cave into her demands. The market will determine who is right.

Of course in her case it's a moot point as far as both of us are concerned. The thought of either of us trying to book with any one of the three of her is beyond laughable.

and on that happy note, I am off to get laid. You guys have fun and Jake, try to be nice to the old ladies here.

I always ask if they would like a review, some do some don't.  Also, I see many ladies who are not members, don't have websites, and are just drive bys.

I am starting to do reviews now on a more frequent basis.  I have been as I am sure most of us have - duped before by a dishonest provider.  To help ensure that hobbyists have fun I will write a review on any and all providers I see as I have learned my lesson.  My advice tell us people what we need to know about a provider.  Thank you.
