everyone's on the bandwagon to give low scores.  should I wait out for the market to settle a bit or is it a spending opportunity to get in for better service to earn the higher score?

So the following remarks were in a review that was posted by TJamesK (I delete the name of the provider and any identifying remarks, because I think that would violate TER policy), and then the provider's ad on CV disappeared.  Now, THAT'S the way it's supposed to work, right?  We hobbyists are protected by a brother hobbyist honestly spreading the word:

   "As I was going over the ads of Asian providers, XXX's picture caught my eye. She looked pretty good. And the pictures bore that fact out.  But appearance, as I was to find out once again, is not everything. Attitude counts for a lot. It was not a session I would recommend or repeat."

For those who want to see the review, go to the review of Asian providers and you will see it.  Right on, TJames...  RT

flipping hamburgers, waiting tables, or giving some guy a BJ under his desk at eight bucks an hour.

Put on a little make up and have a nice day

What kind of robotic woman is the exact same with every client?  Quite frankly, not all of the men we meet are as wonderful as they'd seem on paper.

While my reviews are largely great, I have been knocked down to a 9 for using my cell phone twice, and also for not having my porn star makeup on at a noon date when I asked specifically if I could be a little late.

For the record, I will AlWAYS use my cell twice, once to say, he's here and seems to be ok and once to say, all is well, I'm alive and he's on the way out. Period.

Bad attitude often begets a bad attitude. One guys opinion should not a decision make.

Totally unfair. Furthermore I think it's disturbing to call a stranger in the Internet  a "Brother hobbyist" merely because a man also pays a woman for a sexual interlude. I sure as hell don't call every girl in my line of work a sister, even though we try to also help each other avoid assholes and serial killers. We are NOT sister whores, sister wives or any other kind of feigned kin.

How do you know that you have one thing in common with this man? The Long Island serial killer is also a practicing "hobbyist", is he a brother too?
Maybe her bad attitude was because some jerk showed up to a date with a cut on his genitals, a herpes lesion? It's happened to me more than once, doesn't exactly make me hot and bothered.

Where's the fairness?  Maybe I'm being a bitch here, but this hobbyist running with the pack mindset can't get out of control, we are ALL individuals and I suggest you all as a group maintain yours and not get sucked into a following the herd like a good sheep mentality.
If you need a brotherhood, join the fucking Masons, they have enough rituals, ceremonies, secrets, and shared women of the professional mindset. But now I can't go ruining the first half of my novel....hahaha

Surly, sweet and slutty,

Not only is it totally inaccurate (it's because of the INTERNET, stupid...and even before then it wouldn't have been accurate), it is borderline misogynistic.

Brennan was right.

Was there any point to this post other than being rude to the OP, and basically saying "Shut your mouth and be thankful we bother with you!"...hmmm?

and throw a hissy fit.

As you can see from my reviews, I see Kgals exclusively.  I love them.  Most of them are superb providers with wonderful bodies and pretty faces who do a wonderful job.  I rarely am disappointed and I support the gals with honest, fair reviews.  My point is this: the system -- in this case, TER -- only works if we are honest, providers and hobbyists alike.  There are a lot of suspicious reviews out there -- reviews by first timers who give 10's and 9's and use language that makes it clear the reviews are fake.  There is pressure by providers on the hobbyists to give them good reviews.  There has even been a thread about hobbyists being banned for failing to give good reviews.  This is all nonsense.  The hobbyist must be free to give a fair and balanced review.  The provider cannot coerce or seduce the hobbyist into an inflated review, nor should the booker.

  My point was and is: honesty is the best policy.  The reviewer I quoted was honest and a poor provider went away.  That is GOOD for the great Kgals out there -- they have one less competitor, and a competitor who would drag down the whole business, as a matter of fact.

It hasn't popped, but quality comes in waves; peaks and troughs. I threaded something to this a while back in terms of "wannabe's coming on the scene. There are a few bookers that are extremely reliable, but I recall the days there were so many good choices on cv, it was like fishing in a bathtub, you couldn't miss a kgal hottie. Of course that was a peak.

Id say right now we are a bit after the trough. Of course there are 3-4 kstars (pm me if you want to swap favorites tho YMMV) right now on the bench, perhaps a few more depending on your tastes, but they've been all tasted at this point, and my couple ATFs have disappeared (missin Amber). That said, there are a lot of "new" bookers so it seems that are trying to request the same going rate for much lesser quality. For that I too commend the honesty of the brothers. They helped me, so I helped back for also being honest when I can.

The good news is that waves always change, and I am waiting for that peak again to surf. Its a good thing , especially with this market crashing on us... did you see that 50% off playboy model... bring on the sales.....yeehah

It was her one and only review.  Too small a sample.  A guy can be honest in his review, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's right and that other's would agree with his assessment if they paid the girl a visit.  One review doesn't prove she's a poor provider and just because the add is gone doesn't mean she is gone - perhaps new pics and new name in the works.
