That thread was the reason for the question...

What I am looking to understand is "does a reviewer post an appearance score for the benefit of the other readers?" (and assume that the reviewer saw the gal for himself as a different "score").

That is quite a bit different than how that prior thread was going (IMHO).  And I am interested in knowing if other reviewers also subscribe to that approach.  I didn't understand why a reviewer would post an appearance score for anything other than what his perception of a gal would be.  But if others also will give an appearance score (appealing to the readers) using that formula, that would interest me considerably.  

And as far as being "new" on TER, that is a broad definition.  In terms of life...yes.  In TER years..NO!  And as far as being a hobbyist...definitely NOT new at this by a long shot!  And as far as being "insulted"...none was taken whatsoever.  There's a ton of them (opinions) here, just that some are more informative than others.

how you see the lady (your personal tastes)...or is there a different method you use to come up with this appearance score?

What I have always done is give the score the way I see a gal, and biased to my personal tastes.

Do others out there have a different agenda when applying this rating on a review?

I do tend to score towards my personal preference (no worries ladies, I like em all), but I also consider things like....

~ Hygiene

~ First Impression of her

~ Her assets

~ The way she presents herself

~ Does she look hot and sexy, but also professional?

~ Her voice, yes I include this when I score appearance (Cigarette voice is a huge turn off)

There are others, but these are just some of the ones I look at....

I must admit, I do admire and appreciate a woman's beauty more ages 30 and up.

but since you decided (unilaterally) that this post is designed as a "denigration" of something, then that is a shame.

My interest in this was precipitated by another comment that intrigued me enough to question how we (reviewers) determine an appearance score.  No hidden agenda here :(

My question was fairly straightforward.  If you have an opinion, share it (other than to read in to a post your own convictions!).  Frankly, if I had a different issue I am not shy in presenting my thoughts.  And I'm sure if you have read my posts you would know that as well!

You covered this OP and many facets of it in a VERY recent thread that resides on the next page. Your post didn't denigrate(triple word score!), but it is redundant. You are fairly new to this site, and if you ask for opinions, you will get some that you don't like. My one line refrain was meant to entertain and inform you, not insult you. If you like I can provide a link to that thread on the next page.   ;-)

As for the question, I started out rating the ladies based on how much their look turned me on (call that the "God, you're hot!" system), but now I tend to measure them against a certain ideal look. Face counts most, but I am also looking for a lovely body, no imperfections, from head to toe.

I like a long, slender, lady, real, pert breasts, tight tummy and butt. The face is a little harder to say, both because there are a lot of different looks that I like, and because a lady who makes up and presents herself well can get a very high rating for the face without actually being that pretty, much less beautiful.

The bad news is that I am still looking for perfection; good news is that I have found some very lovely (and talented and downright adorable) ladies, as I have said before.

Appearance scores are pretty much meaningless, aren't they? If I find someone who has rated some women I know and we seem to agree, then I might be able to use his scores for other ladies, but other than that the appearance scores are close to meaningless to me.

but my OCD (heck, one of my favorites is just my equal on this which makes for an interesting "tug of war"...as are quite a few of the others that I have met with) has subsided considerably over the years.  But my anal retentiveness is still pretty strong, along with my opinionated personality.

And honestly, many things that I thought I knew years ago have also changed with experience.

And as you said, and I agree, the actual score is meaningless.  Especially if you/I are trying to determine if that gal as seen by another is just not the type (physically) that we like.

Everyone has such a different idea of what a 10 is.  Mine wouldn't be over a size 5.  For some guys she wouldn't be under a size 14.  I try to base much of the score is how accurate the pictures represent what she actually looks like.  I have seen too many girls over the years that are 30 lbs heavier, 20 years older, etc that you would think from their pictures and description of themselves.
Ive read reviews where they guys stated that the girls used fake pictures and they still give them a high appearance score.  If she used fake pictures I would give her an appearance score of 1.

So, what you're saying is that if a woman used fake pics to presumably protect her identity, and she looked as good or even BETTER than the pics (and maybe looked very close to the girl in the pics) you would still give her a 1 for LOOKS? That, IMHO, is a misuse of the scoring system.  THAT is what the PICS line is for.

If its not the girl in the pics then how do you know if you will see the same girl as I did?  Its all so subjective that if I think she looked better than the girl in the pics and your taste is different than mine you could think she looks much worse.  I think the score should be based solely on how accurate she looks compared to how she looks in the pictures.

    The entire review process and reviewing criteria needs to be revamped and made simpler.

Good point, BUT, still the review system is built to factor in whether the girl is the girl in the pics or not.  How GOOD she looks, subjective as it may be, still doesn't account for a wide range of looks scores on the same girl.  I don't believe that 10 people will look at a girl like, just an example, Hef's ex-fiance, Crystal Harris, and have more than a 3 point spread in the looks department.  It's subjective, true, but not THAT subjective that someone would rate her a 6.  Maybe 1 in 100, but not 1 in 10. ALSO, LOOKS scores are not designed to be relative to her pics.  LOOKS scores are in one way subjective (everyone has an idea of what a 10 is in his mind) and objective (society as a whole does in fact have an objective standard for beauty, which incidentally does change with times. Besides, what if she had no pics? What would you score against?

If the pictures line is set to no, it ain't her, I am unlikely to see her whatever the appearance score, but having said that I would prefer to know that you called, got a real, beautiful lady who delivered, as opposed to someone who was an ugly rip off.

Seems to me you are misusing the system that already is set up to record exactly what you experienced. Can't imagine what "simplification" or "revamping" would fix that.

I generally only see indies, but I hear some agencies (including AMPs, but not just AMPs) use pictures for new ladies that are "representative" but not actually the same girl, and some of our fellow hobbyists trust those agencies and seem to do just fine. Then they fill out the review form properly and explain the situation (including any reply they get when they asked about it) in the review and it all works just fine.

To try to use the appearance score to reflect truth in advertising, or a lack of, is more misleading than the pictures, and actually unfair to the lady, IMO, if she is lovely and delivers.

Funny how people jump on you for throwing out a question...

My answer is that it is completely subjective.  I have a few different "types".  

I only book with someone I believe I will be very attracted to - so if the photos or recommendations don't match - the score drops.

I EXPECT the girl to be a 9 or a 10, from what I see before we meet.   If I'm giving you a 7 or 8 - you're not what I was planning on getting.

I dont want a girlfriend, or a girl who "I know had 3 big O's".  I don't care if she's a little late, or asks for money, or lies to me that I'm the best she ever had...  Just look like your photos and be fun to be with.  That gets you a good score.

Great smile, athletic and toned body, and a perfect ass will get you a great rating.  

As for performance, I'm not looking for a GFE.  I'm looking to have fun.  So people's ratings are going to differ for different reasons.
