The Moderators have no access, control, or influence over the reviews submitted.

Today alone, I have received FIVE requests from providers (from three different boards) complete with the whole back story as to why this or that review is false and should be removed.

This past week has seen a ridiculous spike in the published, and unpublishable complaints from people as to the lack of response time from TER in their issues being addressed.

HELLO!!!! If they had done it right the first time, and followed the procedures and guidelines that have so often been reviewed and re-addressed, it would have been dealt with in a timely manner.

For the last time (in this post) MODERATORS DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE REVIEW PROCESS.

So please, instead of sending your Moderator a PM, use the Contact Us form conveniently located at the top of every webpage on TER.

It's so simple, and avoids so much headache and wasted time.

Thank you for reading.

Having a post taken down is the best and quickest cure for most on this Board. Eventually they will get the picture>>

I know there are lot of phoney reviews gong through but then the honest reviews are denied!
I think that is what is making providers angry.

I understand that you don't have any control over the reviews but it is aggravating to the ladies when this happens and they are only trying to be on the up and up.

I didnt want to jump into the fray below but I have got to add my opinion.......funtimes was moding for us for quite a stretch this last time and from what i saw there were very few cat fights, unacceptable posts or problems or drama in general. Gonzo you seem to bring out the worst in this board as soon as you are back it is a drama fest. Again this is just my observation and I  know all the rules are subject to mods interpretation and every mod is different. I think maybe just maybe funtimes has a better feel and control of the Chicago board. I dont understand why it keeps switching back and forth but I vote that we have funtimes as the full time mod for Chicago!!

Gonzo no disrespect I just see a pattern forming and hate to keep seeing our community in such an uproar!!

That is not what he posted about in the first place.

You should also take your criticism to him via PM.
The mod positions are not beauty contests or popularity contests. There seems to be little glory in these positions these days.

To the contrary, I think Doc does a fine job.

.....How dare you assault him, he’s just trying to help. It is you who is the biggest drama queen on this board. Now just chill girl!  

you do realize of course, you are in violation of a half dozen TER guidelines with this post, right?

But of course, *I* will be villified if I remove it per the instructions I receive from the higher ups.

So what's a guy to do? I'm gonna go out on a trike ride and enjoy the sunshine.

Good for you Doc.Nothing wrong with how you moderate the board. Funtimes has a different style and temperament and I am sure people appreciate him too. There are people who post on the Chicago board that get their tighty whities in bunch most over nothing. If someone thinks that you've said on disparaging remark, they get all sensitive. If you both continue to moderate the board that is good too. A little ying and yang. G'day!

gonzo please explain to me what i violated.....i wanted to voice my opinion on an observation i have made over the last 6 mo how is that a violation?? I have not posted an ad in quite some time so it cant be that....and i felt this was my way of responding to your above post....
I have not been posting anything but ads for monthes and funny the only negative situation I have ever been involved with on this board will remain nameless and ended last year!!
Funny so many of you have opinions and negative things to say on a regular basis I keep mine to myself this was not a personal attack on Gonzo it was simple my opinion of what i see happening here!!
Guess I will go back to living my life and keeping my distance so fake alias's cant attack my character!!

Tabby

...for the great city you live in...he was hung like a skyscraper.  Me, I like the "horizontal boogie”, cause I dig prairie style!

You’re an ingrate all around.
How dare you!

hi doc,

a custom made bike like yours, meet up w/ my harley rider brother in california & go ridin'!!!! that's an awesome ride you have there, doc!!!

No matter what you are hiding behind an alias....at a least I stand behind my opinion and don't hide like a scared mealy mouth I am a big girl and take the negative criticism for my opinions even from out there gents like yourself !! And I don't live in Chicago so I don't have to thank you for anything!!


Wow what a hoot for voicing my opinion thanks for the entertainment today~

Tabby, while you may not perceive what you said as an attack, it was. Telling someone they bring out the worst in the board is a pretty damning statement and frankly a bit over the top. Doc and Funtimes are different people. Funtimes deals with drama his own way. You cannot compare them. There was a much more tactful way to say you had a preference for FTs style. I think you owe him an apology.

Two repeat clients had posted reviews...where in the hell are they? One client saw me in Charleston, SC and X2 in Chicago. The other saw me in Chicago several times.

Those are just the clients who told me, they said TER did not post them.


WTF TER???????

GUY...GIRL just sounds better!

That is very annoying. I have a pending review and I hope it doesn't get stuck in limbo!!!


Hope they get them up for you!

xoxo
Summer-

I think you you do Mmmmmmmmmmmmarvelous work!

BTW-

YOU GO GIRL was meant as a compliment to YOU!
I just adore a sassy man!


YOU do have your work cut out for you since The Chicago board is the busiest.

I appreciate and respect the time and efforts any moderators make to provide this service for readers like myself. It must be difficult to remain unbiased, but honor the need to follow rules and guidelines. I also appreciate individuals who stand up and make a presentation for what they believe. What I find troublsome are those who choose to hide behind another name. If you have something to say, say it. I might not agree, but I will respect your right to say it, provided it is within the rules and guidelines of this service. Thanks to all that do voice their concerns and offer assistance.

DoctorGonzo and Funtimes have both done an outstanding job with the Chicago board.  It is a thankless job and they deserve hazard pay.

you just caused a train wreck on my Carolina board and you won't get away with it again. One more ignorant and trouble making alias post, your flipped and you will get 30 days on the bench, I promise.

Try me dick head.

You know I want to be on the bake of your bike and we do have a date when I do make it out that way or you cum out this way!
You do not bring out the bad in ppl here at all and funtimes I believe has told us to cool it more often than you have so I don't understand what Tammy is babbling about.
FT you are great mod also and I do like how u keep the crap out.

Yes, and you told me not to see you again because I said Chicago can handle two M&G parties, Kelly's and Angela's.  You said you won't see me because I like Angela.  Truth be told, she is one heck of a woman whose place is immaculate, unlike yours.  When I leave seeing Angela, I feel like a gentlemen and not cheap.

I second all those motions. Gonzo and funtimes
are the best ! She needs to learn some etiquette
and take a reality pill.
