Just wondering how most of you feel about the grading system.  

I Know I'm opening  a can of worms...But do you feel that for the most part, if you see a new provider, the previous reviews were accurate? And the rating criteria was objective? And you got the checklist of things that make you happy?

FYI, Below is what Ter suggests:

In order to keep our performance ratings consistent, we set up the following system: An escort provider is only eligible to earn up to a 7, unless she is willing to perform one or some of the following during a session: Kisses With Tongue, Bare-Back Blow Job, Really Bi, and Anal Sex, or More than One Guy. For each of these services that are offered, her potential max score is raised by one point, with 10 as an absolute maximum.

This does not mean she earns extra points for offering the service(s); just that she is now eligible for a higher score. Her maximum eligible score is based on what is offered, not what is performed during your session with her. You may or may not be interested in the “extra” services she offers, but the fact she offers them makes her eligible for the higher score.

If your review rates a provider higher than her maximum score, the score will be adjusted down to her maximum

It's. Impossible to use an objective rating system for a subjective situation.
A woman who has that je ne sais quoi aura, is as seductive ad can be, and flirts, automatically jumps a point in the looks category.

I know for a fact the ladies I see engage in at least 3 of the eligible  
Services, plus the other two. Also have the Je ne sais quoi aura.

While I have not engaged her in a duo or orgy.... yet, I am as lucky as one can get in having a tremendously erotic, and fun time with my partners.
our appt begins with setting the appt, some fun playful banter leading up to the date, then.......  
If a lady is curt, and inattentive leading up to making the appt. That sets the wrong tone..... I enjoy the seduction, as well as the time.

So what's your beef?

it is what it is..i think the rating system is as fair and as equitable as it can be..i have always found the reviews to be accurate and have never been let down as to my choices..some will always bitch and moan about 10/10 scores calling them outrageous and unbelievable..if i could give some of these ladies 11's or 12's i would..but someone would bitch about that too..

I like the system and most of the time its works great

But I know it when I experience it. This is an extremely subjective analysis with a multitude of variables that are inherently shaped by the prism each hobbyist individually employs based on personal needs, wants, desires, expectations, fantasies, etc. Everyone understands that this is a business arrangement predicated on a very delicate and fragile commodity: intimate personal contact and interaction with another human being. Unless you're completely detached and simply looking for a "shock and awe" session,  i would have to believe that personal chemistry between the provider and the hobbyist is a huge factor in determining whether the time that is spent together is worth the time and investment required, and eventually, shaping the ultimate rating that is awarded. While a business, the providers nevertheless are human beings with feelings and emotions, likes and dislikes, preferences and taboos. So while the ratings and reviews may paint a generalized picture of what you might expect, as the saying goes, YMMV, and what is good for one may noy necessarily be good for another. I would not expect to experience what you read in a lot of the reviews, as I am sure there is a fair amount of puffing going on. At the end of the day all you can do is look for a provider that engages in the type of session you are interested in, review her portfolio if there are physical attributes that are important, and then read the reviews to see if there are any red herrings that pop-up. Obviously, the more favorable reviews you see for a provider, the more likely she is good at what she does. After that, you take the plunge and see what happens.
