The primary value of TER is reviews. Yet they make it so difficult to post them that it drives people to not want to even bother posting them anymore. Which in turn cuts into their revenue stream because it makes less people want to pay for memberships.

The database is full of ladies with one review by a reviewer who has written just one review. If the person you're writing a review for hasn't been reviewed, or has just a few reviews, by hobbyists who haven't reviewed ladies, then you will be suspect.

I don't see the point of adding the 137th review for a gal, and if she's new they'll reject it from me anyway.

I just pay the $50 for a quarterly membership, if that's not in my budget, I picked the wrong hobby.

Happened to me when I got here first on first review...then as I do another one and chose to join that disappeared.

You could be totally honest, but TER protecting one timers from coming in a posting a subjective review....

Try again and have fun

I remember a post on the newbie board that said to keep reviewing, post more, and try to make it to a M&G. Hope this helps in some way.

I think you are missing the key part of this, "with limited history" means you didn't even have the basic account running.  When I first came to TER, I didn't review either, but I set up a basic account and signed in while lurking, then later posted a few messages on the local and general boards.  I built a history of coming to the board regardless of reviewing.  When I then posted my first review months later it was approved with no problem.  Since you've been lurking without the account, you have no sign-in history here, no posts, no reviews(obviously), so TER is just protecting the reviewing process.  It does suck for you, but try to sign in when you come, and maybe post a message (as you just did) or 2 in the group.  You can always resubmit later since they allow the visit to be up to 3 months before the review.

Like someone else said, if you don't want to bother with it and just want VIP, pay a little for the access and skip the review.  If you were hoping to post the review to get the VIP, you don't get credit until you second one anyway, so you aren't really out anything by re-submitting later...maybe around the time you are gearing up for outing #2.

SMEGMA!!

perhaps one needs to consider the vast amounts of reviews that are submitted on a daily basis. Now, consider that these reviewers need to try and weed out the fake reviews from the honest reviews.

I assure you that this job, if available, is not a job you would want. The reviewers have zero history on you. Nothing to look at or review, yes it does suck, but they are truely trying to do the best that they can. Do they make mistakes, everyday, but who wouldn't? My suggestion to you and everyone else is to review a woman after every encounter. You establish your credibility and you help fellow board members as well.
