Some musings after posting my 100th review on TER....

1. I have met some truly wonderful ladies in this hobby since I began posting in 2003. My first reviews were of Skylar and Shannon of Room Service Girls and to this date I still have very enjoyable memories of seeing both ladies. I hope both are well.

2. Do any hobbyists routinely change their screen names or post under multiple screen names? Why do you do that?

3. I saw a gal through an agency in another city and the agency posts this message on its website: "We appreciate your reviews on review sites.  Please practice "safe posting" and be aware what you post online stays online forever and your postings may be able to be obtained by someone looking into your activities at a later date.  Most of our professional clientele do not post reviews for their discretion."  What do you think "safe posting" means? Have any of you had experiences (especially bad) with someone looking into your activities using your posts? What are your reasons for not posting?

Any thoughts

Bright red hair, even down below.  Only got to meet with her a few times before she vanished from the face of the earth.  Heard she got married and was doing well.

I changed TER name once.  Had to after the wife found out my handle.  Did not expect her to come home that evening and was taking a nap with my computer open.  She woke me up and the look on her face instantly told me I was in trouble.

I think "safe posting" means don't include any specific detail that could be traced back to you. It also seems that agency prefers to not be reviewed.

Reasons for not posting would include the backlash that results when you post things about others that make them look bad.  Sometimes you want to warn others of problems.  This was easy back in the days of unlimited aliases.  Now you need to be careful.  Many examples of good intentions that became trouble described on Reviewer Only Board.

I remember years ago when the #1 reviewer posted his 100th review.  That was big news back then.  He posted over 1000 before he vanished from the face of the earth.

I most always will give a review.  I'll do it to either alert fellow hobbyist that's someone's not up to par or I'll write a glowing review to hopefully bring her more dates.  I try to tell it like it is in my reviews too (good or not so good).  I've seen some girls that don't have TER ID's yet, so I can't write a review.

If they don't have a review.. You do it. They will the have a TER identity.. I've done several for first timers..

Impossible not to remember my first provider(s). It would be like forgetting my first kiss!

The first one (in Dallas) has since retired but the second (in Boston) is going strong and posts here as well

Regarding posting under multiple screen names: thought it was a non-no? Did it once myself, not knowing any better and got my hand slapped... Or are you referring to aliases (which are OK)?

To me safe posting means not putting anything that discloses the location or anything that would make her recognizable in real life.

Congratulations on #100.  Just think, you could own a brand new car for the same money.

There a few women I met but did not review.  In most cases I did not have a good time but felt the girl made an honest effort.  We simply did not click.  I did not want to post a bad review which would hurt her business, for something that was not really her [intentional] fault
