The point I was trying to make is that no provider should have the right to have a review pulled if it is an honest review, no matter what the scores.
The review I was refering to was posted by SFSHYGUY.  I posted a brief summary of his review as well as I could remember it ...  I THINK that this is the review Megan wanted TER to pull, (Let's say it is) Megan or for that matter any provider that wants a review pulled saying that it is false ... TER looks at it and says we see nothing wrong with it the review is in line with your others (the review gets posted) or prove to us (TER) what it is false about the review.

On the other board Megan states that she shouldn't have to prove anything and the review should be pulled because she wants it pulled.. She then goes on to slam TER.

(This is where I totally disagree and have my concern about posting reviews) I applaud the fact that TER stood their ground and posted the review.. I feel that no provider should have the power to pick and choose which reviews get posted and which don't  .. As Long As the Review is Honest, (excellent, good, bad, or ugly) it needs to be posted. I also don't feel that a hobbiest should tell a provider before hand what he is going to post in his review or have the provider review it before posting it. However, if a provider does not wish to have a reivew posted and this is her policy then follow her wishes.

Megan was only the match that fueled this discussion. My concern is that all reviews be open and honest, and at no time should information good, bad, or ugly be held from or taken out of a review.  We have the right to know, that is why I pay my 50 per quarter to be a member of TER to read about the positives and negatives and then decide for myself.

Well for one thing, you've made me want to meet Meghan!  In this "HOBBY" it's always YMMV and all Reviews " must be taken with a grain of salt." People will always have their Favorites and as in any interaction someone will feel slighted and want to get back in some way. We all read reviews and make judgement as to their valitity. It's so nice TER lets us search by reviewer! I want Meghan back and for you to keep Posting reviews. Now PLEASE say a prayer for the PANTHERS!!!!!!

I believe the Panthers are going to need more than ONE prayer!

Hey, there's nothing wrong with finishing second!

Spinner is right on with his thoughts.  I just noticed that Megan's review are back on again with TER.  If this isn't the makings of a true drama Queen, I don't know what is. This is becoming laughable.

The Panthers do not need a prayer !! They are going to win . If they don't, then I will owe you a Night in Las Vegas at my expense !! I have faith in my Boys . Besides, I have them at 75 to 1 odds.  Got's to believe !! [email protected]

Your absolutley right, Patriots Fan, there is nothing wrong with finishing second as long as the Panthers cover the spread!  This is Las Vegas....it's not about who wins/loses the game...it about who covers and who doesn't.  The Pats can lift the trophy as high as they like as long as they keep it under a TD.  And to the Carolina guy,  heck at 75:1 if the Panthers win you should still be able to spring for that night in Vegas...unless a course you only bet a buck, then it might be a little tough, but still that should be a binding offer both ways!!  Have fun...

To tell you the truth, I usually don't pay attention to the spread...a sin in Vegas, please forgive me. I was surprised when someone recently told me that the Pats usually cover. I think you'll see the Patriots come out throwing deeper than usual to test the Panthers secondary. They will still use the short passing game to set up the deep balls but the deep balls are coming!

As for predictions,

1. Look for Bethel Johnson to score at least one TD.

2. Steve Smith will be as invisible as Marvin Harrison was in the AFC Championship game.

3. The Panthers will score 10 or less.

4. The Pats will win by 10 or more (definitely covering the spread).

Patriots 24-10

I was just thinking about that.  I was thinking that all this attention on this situation with Meghan is probably going to bring her positive business.  Hmmmm.....Spinner maybe you do like her???  Sorry, just trying to make light of the situation!!!  All and all I have to agree that you should be honest in the reviews but I am just against those guys that want to destroy a girls rep and as someone said in your other post that you men are grown and can tell the difference with guys like that vs. guys who are honestly telling about their experience.  Hey, good discussion!  Panthers/Patriots? hmmm....not sure about that one!  Now about boxing that is something I know about!!!
