The juicy detail section is there for a reason. While your reviews do hold some value, I can glean most of that from the providers profile. Saying you went from DFK to BBBJ to doggie tells me very little.

I don't want penthouse letters either, but I want to know details about her BBBJ. Was it deep, was it fast, did she make eye contact? In doggie, did she look back, did she talk, did she claw the sheets? (my favorite)

Adding a small detail about a few services goes a long way. A few additional sentences is probably all it will take. Just be a little more descriptive. There's no need to be shy around here.

How gallant of you...

I used to feel the same way, however I had a provider ask me to write a review and she wanted to make sure that I gave a lot of intimate details.  She said it helped her business.  To this day, I only do reviews when a provider requests.  She'll usually have a pretty good idea that the review will be positive.

If I had a bad experience, I would let other hobbyists' know.

If you are concerned about the providers privacy, I would suggest you ask her.

For me, the best reviews help me get a real feel for what it would be like to be with her, particularly if I think the reviewer has somewhat similar tastes to mine.

I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but in the end it's TER's sandbox.

your efforts are not as well appreciated or admired here on the board as they would be in, say, a manual.  I think, maybe, that your writing style and use of verb-age aren't descriptive enough for the sort of reviews that TER would like to post.  Readers need to really get a good feel of what the encounter was like, and vivid details (not generalized accounts) are what gets that accomplished.  Vivid, juicy details are what make the reader's brain see, taste and smell the play by play. If the encounter was hot and sweaty, then a review that can describe the details will hopefully make the reader excited- It's entertainment at it's best, sort of like reality TV...

Well, I hope it's reality, and not embellishment, which is a disservice, and I'm sure there's some of that out there.  But, an honest, descriptive re-enactment (within reason) will best serve the board and the hobbyists who would just like to know.  What's she all about?  Really....

It's difficult for me and very time consuming to write a juicy and detailed review. I do my best and if it's not good enough TER will reject it and I add some details. Some peoples descriptive abilities are much better than mine.

thoughts-- while i understand reviews can help or hurt a providers business her are a few thoughts-- i write a review and it was fantastic--i connected well with the provider and the juicy details said bbbj and cim.Hobbiest x reads this and expect same---but no connection and is not real clean and provider covers him and the session gets mechanical..Hobbiest expects same treatment and doesnt get it so he writes a bad review. So the words your results may vary do come into play.   just thoughts

I have a couple (a few), many-clients who don't write reviews, and that's OK.  Has to be.  Yes, they serve both the provider and the hobbyist in numerous ways.  Yes, they can leave reader with expectations and impressions that cannot be met with each individual encounter.  We all connect on different levels, and every connections is unique.  But, if each new client wrote a review of me, I'd have hundreds of them, and that is not necessary for either side of the fence.  They do boost up our business, but if someone wants to take the time to submit a play by play of our session for whatever reason they have, that's great.  If they just don't feel comfortable doing so, and it's not in their nature to "kiss and tell", that's OK, too.  There are PLENTY of fish in the sea, and we don't reel 'em all in!

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate when a client takes the time to submit a review. Thank you a hundred times for each one of you who do that.  

I hope breadmaker will continue to enjoy the company of his favorite ladies, and just relax in the fact that he just doesn't write reviews.  So, don't ask him to do so!!   lol

I'm not a review writer.  Can't tell you how many times I've started writing and decided to not submit after working on a review for quite some time.  For me, I can't help thinking what it would be like if the provider was giving a play-by-play of me from her perspective.  Picture me as Rodney Dangerfield. Whow boy, tough crowd!

I agree that review writing is not for everyone as seems to be the consensus of the board. However, there are other ways to give back to this 'community' of sorts. I prefer to pay for my membership. Someone has to pay for servers, etc. and I never liked the whole juicy details thing either.  I also think mini-reviews on the board and even shill Fridays are useful feedback for other hobbyists.  I would however consider making an exception when you have a particularly good or bad experience.  A rip-off or dangerous situation should almost always be reported so that others may avoid the same fate.

Exactly my thoughts as well. I eventually did my first two reviews primarily as a warning so others would not make the same nub mistakes I made. Yet still I have reviews I have yet to complete, yet to re-edit, etc.. simply because I do find them excruciatingly.  difficult. I think if the other end was to write about me, my god the laughs that could be had...omg. In fact there might be a few here who might just be willingly to reduce their rates just to have that once in a lifetime experience of being with the world's worst lover. I have to agree that for the most part these are really just for vetting, you know to make sure that the certain uniform she was wearing was just for role-playing and not anything else .

I think reviews are important. I do them to be good member of my "wicked" community. But I, too, am not comfortable with the tawdriness (?word). I write what I consider to be a tasteful review, being as truthful as possible. Then it gets thrown back at me. So, I become (as I see it) more tawdry and graphic with each iteration, while at the same time sticking to the truth. Sadly, I am about as white-bread and vanilla as you can get, so my reviews really don't go beyond the usual man-woman interaction.

I do wish TER would give the ladies the opportunity to respond to reviews, good and bad. I think this would be much more fair, and more helpful to hobbyists as well.
