I went to this section of TER and found a list of providers and their partial profiles. I could not click thru and read any reviews and a phone search did not pull up their reviews either. Am I missing something?
To get to that section you click on reviews, then go to the drop down that says search and then click on where it says "Providers with something to hide"I asked the same question it seems to have replaced the R.O.B. area where rip off's were once spoken about.

I'm acquainted with a delightful lady who has now been in that category for some weeks. This is not because she has anything to hide but —thanks to problems with a bogus review submitted about her [one out of a hundred legitimate, good reviews, BTW] and some difficulty in getting the matter resolved with TER— because she requested that her reviews be taken down pending resolution.
I don't know what the story is with others in this category, but the phrase "something to hide" does cast a shadow —possibly undeserved— on the provider. The lady of whom I write is anything but shady, yet this status can't help with bookings.
In the interests of both providers and clients, perhaps at minimum some revision of the category name would be in order, the better and more accurately to reflect reality.
I agree with you Phil. It is insulting to have such an upscale place for established providers with a "something to hide" section which only deems that we have untrustworthy beings that need to be put in place . Sort of like solitary confinement. Granted there are shady people out there yet once a valued member brings it to the attention of his fellow hobbyists it is usually not someone who has established who has a stellar reputation.So I feel the entire board should be deleted and make room for something that is actually useful.
The issue of reviews has been a bone of contention for many girls. We all know that le infiltrates these boards. I do not wish to have some of the graphic depictions that have been written about me and others in reviews. No one needs the juicy blow by blow graphic description of a session.
I think the men need to just say whether they clicked with the girl or they didn't and if she delivered on what she promised. If you read some of these descriptions of the session, I feel for some of these girls, but it says more about the guy and whether he values discretion.
The guys cant hide from their reviews we know who you are if a girl screens properly.
I know that since I will not see gentlemen for a half hour any longer my scores have gone way up. Also now I read what the guy says about other girls and I make sure I have it in writing in an email that the graphic descriptions are not allowed. I have been able to use these agreements with ter to get two good reviews but too graphic for me taken down.
Also, the more you gentlemen write, the more harm you can do to yourselves for others to see you. I wont see a guy now if I feel he has been to graphic in descriptions no matter what he promises me he will or wont do in my review.
The women need to start to fight back against these reviews. We have never been able to comment back on the reviews, the reviews many times are biased, as in from only one point of view, the guys.
I hope that the gentlemen start to think about what they are doing to women on these boards in general and start respecting their desire for discretion as much as their desire for discretion.
methinks the OP has an issue at the moment..
yes, some of us drink WAY TOO MUCH (yet we still deserve to get paid for our hourly service) and yet other may do TOO MANY DRUGS....
who is anyone to cast that stone? LOL.. seriously.. Did you contact the provider OR did she solicit your $$$?????
Providers tend to give way more than we get...
so post a bad review, renig on your good one and backchannel like a mo fo.....
please...
what a random post served as a dish of revenge which is cold...
meh... shit happens..

I've not gotten that feedback from anyone. And I've only seen one other lady write a similar viewpoint on here. In fact one of my super graphic stories got me quite an enthusiastic response that it's the best review she'd ever read. Are you afraid the juicy details would be used against you in court?
I agree with him on this one. We are all on a review board. There are definitely times that reviews are unfair. The review is coming from the gentleman that visited the provider. I definitely do not feel that any of us wants to visit a provider with the thought that we are not going to have anything short of an amazing time. Truth be told we all express ourselves in very different ways. TER is a good outlet to tell a story of a experience with a woman that I think is attractive. Otherwise I would not have visited her. I don't think the ladies have anything to worry about, it all comes out in the wash. There is always the option to ask not to be reviewed at all. Then again like she said, TER does seem to have a way to get reviews removed. There are also guidelines in place to screen reviews before they are posted.
I also agree with her. I have always felt that when I visit a lady, there is a mental, physical, and sometimes emotional connection that is made. Someone a combination of all three. None of the other readers of my review may be able to relate to what was between her and I. I know its a business and that the visit is ultimately about my pleasure. Still I am a man. Still there is that thought in my mind that I hope she had as much of a good time as I did.
I guess it's even though. If I contact a provider to let her know that I had a great time with her then ask if she had a good time with me, her reply is always YES. So if this were always the case then there would be no such thing as a bad review or a bad client and we could not have this discussion because we would all be the same. The reason there are over the top reviews is because there are providers the go way above the norm. Depending on who I am and my personality , I may want to express that GRAPHICALLY. Same is true when a provider is below average. It's a business at the end of the day. Some reviews may hurt a bit, most will not as long as you are delivering on what you promised, maybe a little more.
well as the saying goes you reap what you sow. If you decide to do the graphic details and give bad reviews then the girls have the option of not seeing you its the risk you take in how you write your reviews.
I totally agree with her. Lets be gentlemen and responsible when we review.
Do "I" have something to hide?? LMAO.. have you read MY reviews?? I think not..
Besides, this is a fantasy based review board.. PUHLEASE.... used against me in a court of law? Perhaps if I whitelisted.....
as I said, meh....
I see that the reviews for the lady to whom I referred in the earlier post are back up —minus the bogus review— and she is no longer in hiding.
The takeaway? Providers unhappy with reviews can challenge them and if it turns out the review is not on the level, TER can remove it.
For those providers who are not happy with legitimate but unfavorable reviews, there is —among other things— an old saying about heat, kitchens, and one's choice of location.
There is also the possibility of just listening to what someone who has paid money for services has said about those services and taking it to heart. Or not.
Another old saying about "the customer" is also worth keeping in mind. The customer may or may not always be right, but the customer is always the customer —and in the real world, the customer is the source of income for the provider.
Peace 'n' Luv …
