Became a member after having a very, very bad experience with a provider who is still advertising and seeing clients.  When I became a member I discovered others had had similar experiences with this provider (from reviews posted here).  

I'm just an occasional hobbyist normally but this experience was bad enough to shut me down, it was scary.  

Recently I decided to check things out again.  While checking reviews, I checked out the reviews of the provider of the bad experience I had to see how things were going--and discovered that her bad reviews from before were now gone from the site.  Not due to age--as some decent reviews from those same time periods were still present.  

I posted a question re: this and was encourage to write a review, I was told other hobbyists should hear my bad experience.  

I did so.  It went unapproved initially, then it had something like "under review" status, now it is again "unapproved".

I have sent several e-mails asking questions about this situation.  Both were acknowledged as being received.  Both have yet to be replied to.

This provider is still advertising. She is getting decent reviews on occasion.  

I won't go into my experience in detail but it involved no service, taking all the money and threats of LE.  

I don't feel I can trust ANY provider's reviews on this site anymore....

Is there something going on that someone that is a full member could pm me about that might be leading to this?

Let us know who the lady is. It would be nice.

The value of TER reviews and the amount/quality of information on the board has fallen to near useless levels.

While I was a longtime member, I could not get valid reviews published and finally was not allowed to post information valuable to other hobbyists on the MN board.

The MN board has been reduced to escort advertising and white knight fawning and shilling.
