So why does TER keep reviews in profiles that they know are fake? I am starting to trust TER reviews less because of this. The one thing I find the most interesting is that the reviews are coming from guys with a fair amount of review history and some are willing to admit they even have written fake reviews! Just WTF.. you really have to make the stuff up to keep your VIP????

I am a provider that reported that I had fake reviews and Ter not only removed the reviews but removed me also in the bargain.
This guy will write like 3 reviews in a row to get his free VIP, he does this when his free VIP runs out. I think that certain people get their kick different ways.
But if a girl has a few pages of reviews I am more then sure you can go by most of them and not worry about a few people who write fake reviews.

This is what I was talking about in the previous post. Why did they remove you also? Did you ask to be removed?

No I did not ask to be removed and I am working on getting my reviews back with Bendover, I do not always like my reviews or what is said but I believe they serve a purpose and believe when I say that I am very upset with the whole mess. It has been three weeks and counting ..

The problem with fake reviews is the impact on the provider.  There is a lady who had I very good time with.  Unfortunately, her first TER review was negative.  All of a sudden she got a slew of bad reviews from people she had nver seen.  What happened was that people starting following the pattern of her first review and submitting new ones.  She then called upon her regulars to submit good reviews.  However, after the initial string of bad ones, the good ones looked fake.  

That's my clue to a fake review.  If the exact same thing happens in the exact same order for a few reviews in a row, something is up.

Is TER melting down?  I know all of this is fantasy, but if it's not credible fantasy it's going to be no fun at all (and TER will be useless.)  Let's get it fixed.

If I were in to fake reviews I wouldn't go long stretches without VIP (like now).

I usually hobby once per month and write the reviews when I get around to it.  I haven't hobbied this month and have nothing to right about.  Consequently I lost my VIP status.  

I agree with you fake reviews (good and bad) are a danger to TER.  They're unfair to the girl and the hobbiest.  

Thanks for your concern and commitment to the integrity of the process.
