What is going on with TER review moderation?
http://www.theeroticreview.com/reviews/searchbyreviewerResults.asp?MemberName=maxvibgyor This guy posted three separate reviews of this milf/gilf paggy in the same month and they all went through?The last one saying it's the first time he saw this girl?
Is this a joke?
TER guidelines for submitting reviews . . . . .
"You may also submit an update on a provider that you have already reviewed, but you won’t be credited for an additional 15 days. Your new review must be a complete rewrite that adds something new to the experience. Your old review will remain."
If any of these three reviews violate anything in this statement, then you should report it and the Review(s) will be removed. Since he reviewed her first in December, the three reviews in February will not get him any VIP days, so most likely, he's a young man (or old man - lol) who has fallen in love if the reviews are good, or is getting revenge if they are bad. I'll leave that up to you. I'm not going to read them. Its a total waste of time when a guy reviews the same girl three times in such a short time span, regardless of his motivation. You can't believe anything he says about this girl or any other. He has torpedoed his cred as a reviewer permanently.
Interestingly, her looks improved from 5 to 6 in the same month. Either he was drunk or she had some work done. 😂
Definitely drunk for the last one, he couldn't even remember he saw her before 
I don’t know about the West Coast, but here in DC if you respond to an ad that lists multiple girls (often described as “my sister”) at $160 an hour, it’s an Asian Crap Shoot. At an ACS you’ll end up seeing whichever girl happens to be available.
He reviewed Peggy twice, first time rated her 4 for looks, second time 5.
His third review is a duplicate posting of the second review. Can that be attributed to a glitch? Maybe.
Fourth review is actually a different girl. He sees the ad for Peggy & Betty and calls PO to see Peggy again. He gets to the door and another girl takes care of him, maybe even says she’s Peggy. He rates the new girl a 6 for looks.
Just ignore the noise and move on. Useless reviews.
But I agree. I think he did see at least two different girls and had a review post twice.
Not really that helpful, but not useless. CDL thinks that multiple reviews hurt the credibility of the reviewer. But there’s info to be gleaned from these multiple reviews.
How many times do we read “more might be available on a second visit”, and then never find out if more is available. A second review can also tell us that the monger felt the performance and/or value was worth a second trip.
The approval system for TER reviews is clearly not airtight, but you can still glean info from them if you read between the lines.
Usually it proves that the guy is kind of hung up on the girl and his reviews are not to be trusted. So in that regard the second or even third review is NOT worthless, but it does, as CDL states, most definitely hurt the credibility of the reviewer.
Okay, but I generally don't pay much attention to reviews from people I don't have some baseline to work from. That means they need to have reviewed at least one woman I've seen to have an idea on their grading. The more overlap in who we've seen is where credibility, in terms of a review being useful, comes from for me.
So, sure, if you need to other ways to assess the reviewer I suppose those (now gone) reviews were useful.
I think multiple reviews of the same girl by the same reviewer are fine, if some time has lapsed between reviews. Three in one month does hurt the cred of the reviewer, IMO, because they are almost certainly agenda-driven, and not the least bit objective. I rarely review the same girl until at least six months later, but only if there is something new to include. A girl just starting out when I first reviewed her may have gotten a lot better, and so an update is warranted. Likewise, a veteran Kgirl may be getting burned out and the service is noticeably worse than the last time I reviewed her, and that deserves to be noted as well in a subsequent review. So the question I ask myself is how much has she changed since the last review and is it worth mentioning as either a selling point or a sticking point?
Very much the same in the Palm Springs area. Over the last 10 years there have been at least 10 Asian houses open and disappear. Started at 100/160, later went to 160/200. Same ladies pictured in the ads, but new ladies in the rooms every few weeks, mostly Chinese. It was a grab bag/crap shoot. Some ladies were fit, attractive, and did bbbj, daty, dfk and cfs. Others were soft and flabby, and limited to toothy cbj and dodge the pickle style cfs. They are now no-gos for me. I'd rather drive to LA/OC or wait til I'm in Vegas. And the reviews from these places are generally worthless because the service experience is fully dependent upon the nameless lady who happens to be in the room when you get there,
are MP reviews and not getting passed off as escort reviews.
They sound like corgs. Mps have lower house fees and tip is very ymmv
In PS area they are COrgs running out of houses, condos, and occasionally hotels. They charge flat fees; no house fee plus negotiating with lady for extras. These are not storefront MPs and really don’t offer massage. There are storefront MPs all around the desert, but I’ve never been to one and can’t comment on their practices.

Yeah but if their adds don't let you link a specific person to a specific ad picture/name then it seems that is exactly the type of operation TER says needs to be submitted as an MP review.
Some might claim that since they have pictures and names the ad they should qualify as escort (even though you said they use the same pics and names for years but the girls change ever couple of weeks) but I think that is missing the forest for the trees in terms of the spirit of the policy.
Agree
Although TER may classify CS as MPs, I think, in practice, most mongers consider them to be escorts because of the apartment setting and guaranteed FS. FS may, of course, also be guaranteed at MPs, but the price isn't set beforehand. Additionally, on many ad sites, these CS are listed under the "Escorts", not "Bodyrubs" section.
Neither price nor any certainty about services is really the issue here.
The organization (and here I think that terms applies rather than agency) if keeping the same pictures up regardless of who is coming through anyone who submits an escort review rather than an MP review is not doing anyone here (except perhaps the organization) any favors.
of reaching 2,000,000 reviews by the end of the quarter.
Multiple reviews on a girl are ok and I think welcome by this site. Only the first review gives the reviewer credit towards VIP, which is a pretty nice policy IMO. Sometimes girls improve and sometimes they don't but more reviews are generally better than fewer reviews I think.
The moderators don't personally know every girl and can't prove or disprove that any guy/handle saw the girl or that the review is accurate. They do a much better job of moderating than other sites I've seen, so this is the best review site I'm aware of right now.
If I come across a review I don't believe then I ignore it and likely the reviewer who posted it.
Just my opinion.
That's fair, but I believe twoontuesday has said that when he tried reviewing the same kgirl within a short period, he was denied and told he couldn't do it per rules and should wait.
Maybe I misremember.
Ok, what's your point though?
I do believe TER policy stipulates a minimum time period between reviews of the same girl by the same handle. It's up to the site to enforce and it's the site's policy. As long as the reviews are honest I really don't care, as a consumer of information here. I did have one review rejected according to a PM from the moderator because I posted too soon for a girl but the review actually got approved/posted anyway. Probably the moderator clicked the wrong button. Is this a big deal? Not to me, so far anyway.
The point is I'd expect all reviews and rules enforced equally, without double standards or exceptions. Part of what you mentioned about TER being the best site for reviews -which is what I fully agree on - is imo due to their enforcement of rules.
I'm a little bit concerned for TERs filtering and approval process of reviews lately....and a couple of months ago they allowed two reviews in which full address of incall was posted. You and few others, I think, are aware of this incident. This could have compromised a lot of people's safety - girls, orgs and mongers alike - if that info was to fall to the wrong people.
Sounds like you need to start your own review site then and put in place processes to ensure all rules are strictly adhered to. What's the phrase I'm looking for? Oh, yeah "shit happens". Sometimes I step in it and sometimes I step over it.
You started this discussion by making the point that what he did was allowed. Now you've changed it to "shit happens". Perhaps you should've started with "shit happens" to begin with.
When I used the phrase "shit happens" it referred to the site not quite following their own policies. Maybe the moderator made a mistake by approving the reviews (shit happens). I don't know and I really don't care. I have no problem with a guy posting multiple reviews. If they're accurate and useful I'm all in favor of it. If they're crap and not useful then I'll ignore them.
To be clear, I think I supported multiple reviews, which I do. This guy had multiple in a very short window. That's the site's issue to deal with. I never said what he did was allowed, or at least I don't think I did.
Here's a better quote. The Serenity Prayer: "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And the wisdom to know the difference."
and as you stated in your OP three of them appear to be posted almost all at once, something that SHOULD not be allowed. If you haven't already done so you should file a problem report and at least two of those review should be removed.
This is a case where clearly TER fucked up and failed to enforce their own rules.
I'm not sure it's a glitch. I've seen it more than once. And the review ids are far apart. Meaning the duplicate review got submitted much later
As shitty donkey was for reviews,they at last had a duplicate protection ter could use, imo.
I just reported a review which not only was a copy of the guy's first review, but also still included the name of that first provider (different from the one supposedly being reviewed).
At this point doesn't seem to matter. Only the review from December last year remains.
Some other double reviews are gone too.
Good job TER!
used "volunteer" moderators (GaG was one about ten years ago), but I think those days are long past. However, due to the fact that they were dark in the US from April 2018 to December 2019, it makes sense that a lot of the moderators may be new and still learning the finer points of their job. Most of the reviews have always been for US providers, so during the dark period, they did not need as big a staff to approve reviews. We may have to be patient for awhile before it gets back to where it was before April 2018.
I agree with generally, but in my example, I think it's pretty inexcusable to approve a review where the name of the person being reviewed doesn't even match the name on the profile.
