and when you do is it new reviews only, do you search for specific providers you have found on the web, or do you use a pot luck search.

I read the new reviews in my local area and mark any new potential favorites.

I'll browse throught the escort malls and BP (gasp!!)search for reviews on any that catch my eye.

If I want something specific, I'll do a search the reviews here

I check it out.

Or, when I'm checking out a new gal and deciding if I want to see her.

At the outset, I should state that to me, reviews are the necessary evil of this business. I dislike the notion of rating a woman whom I have been intimate with as a commodity. It is demeaning and degrading to relegate a description of a fellow human being to a few numbers and alphabet descriptions as a might a new car or computer system or service on a flight. Whatever my initial misconceptions, I have leaned to value you as people, as women and not as objects.
On the other hand, everyone acknowlwdegs the imporstnce of the reviews as a means for us to evaluate whether you are the kind of person i would like to spend tome wirh, and i imagine you use them to get a sense of us as potentail clients which is why, When i write, I try to describe the quality

Long intro to a fairly straightforward question. I like to browse the reviews of my friends ( woman with whom I have had dates and which come in automatically as "favorites" ) each morning in bed on my iPhone. I enjoy recalling my pleasant moments as I read that others have had same or similar experiences.

As I only hobby when I travel, when I am planning a trip I will turn to the ads of the city that I will be visiting and follow up on the reviews that have caught my eye. On the other hand, if I am returning to a place where I have already hobbied, and have already had an enjoyable date there, I will tend to want to return to the same person as opposed to finding someone new. In a new city, I will occasionally do a search based on specific criteria as opposed to general browsing.

Also very important - if I see that one of fellow hobbyists has had a similar experience to me with a particular companion, I occasionally will read his other reviews of different people, knowing that there is a strong likelihood that I would enjoy a date with them as well.

Sorry.  

I start with my favorites and then if I have time look at the new reviews. There are certain reviewers that I follow to see what they have been up to.

depends what my travel schedul is like. If I'm home usually daily, if I'm on the road not as much. And I don't try and post from my Iphone while in bed. Oh and I don't find reviews demeaning.

Hard to say how often I read reviews. I have my favorites list and I read a review every time a new one is posted. When a provider's post on my regional board gets my attention I may go check out her reviews to see if there might be further interest. About the only time I use the search is to find someone specific. I don't just enter criteria to check out who might fit what I entered.

What my boy Sphinx said.
I will add that I use the Advanced Search for help when traveling (except when I take my play toy with me) to try and match the type that I am jonesin' for.

I save them to TER Favorites, take notes.  Eventually becomes my bucket list.

the only time I look at reviews is if my attention has been directed to someone through a regional ad or a post on the boards that intrigue me... after I've checked her web site, determined she's within reach geograhically (weeping because Cecelia is so far away) and financially, read everything there and, think i'm ready to take the plunge and contact her... then I read any available reviews to reinforce my already formed opinion...

Will   check forums more frequently and reviews of interesting ladies posting there.

I usually check everyday just to see if there are any new reviews on the ladies I already see or ones I may already be interested in. then I look at the reviews of ladies that I may want to know more about after seeing their website or ads.

Seems like the Carolina boys are of the same mind.  Same here.

I read the reviews when I am preparing to travel or to keep current on favorites
