My reviews are reflective of the time *I* had and how *I* felt about that girl. I have gone out of my way on several reviews to say that she is a 10 *TO ME*.

I will say, though, that I think the requirement for 20 reviews is a bit too many...IMO. I would think 10 would be fine.

totally agree distruct. Both with respect to your time spent and how one feels and this silly 20 review requirement to be included in the top whatever rankings. There are 2 ladies in SD (Cameron and Heidi Meadows that I have seen and have/will review (still need to write one for Heidi))
that each have about 15 reviews and have an average rating higher that any lady in SD that would put them number 1 and 2 but for this 20 review standard. Seems to defeat the purpose of due dilignece. They don't evern show up on the lists now and they have plenty of reviews IMO. To your point Arden, and consistent with distructs comments, my reviews are based on how I felt upon reflection walking away. It should not be any more complicated than that.

I completely agree that not everyone follows the guideline rules (altough TER will kick it back if one strays to far), and that people all have their favorites which creates bias in the ratings. But I would argue that this is pretty much consistent from lady to lady (especially for those that have averages of 8.5 and above) and sort of inherently imbedded in the ratings from a statistical standpoint. Put another way, I believe the vast majority of hobbyists are inclined to round up in their ratings because that is just human nature (at least for most people). One feels better about rating someone highly when they walk out of an appointment feeling fantastic. But alas not all unfortunately have good hearts and I also agree that you will encounter the bad apple that "wants to protect the integrity of the system" at all costs and will never rate higher than say a 9 for anyone. Which is really kind of silly since, as you point out and I agree, giving grades in this activity is completely subjective and not in any way a quantitative exercise. But the 20 and above guideline bugs me. For a low volume provider that could take a year or more which does not seem fair. Yes a VIP can do a search based on average ratings and see if there are any 10 10s out there that only have 3 reviews. But it seems a shame that ladies with 15 reviews and off the charts average ratings would not even appear on a top 100 list.

who are these "10s" who aren't measuring up? why worry about them? let them lose business and end up with crummy reviews. can't maintain the phony reviews if ur not puttin up the performance.


also, i think needing a minimum of 20 reviews to be on the 100 list is brilliant. it only allows ladies who have proven safe by 20 gents the privilege of extra advertising boost. i love seeing how my looks rating is lower but my performance makes up for it which keeps me in my spot on the list. the list is a good tool to compare ladies, menus, rates and looks all for one city in one spot. its like having all your favourite foods in arms reach with little leg work.

i was only informed of the list recently when someone who was near my spot on the list congratulated me on being in the top 20 myself (given my menu i feel its impressive). i like the list, its fun seeing how peoples reviews move them up and down. seems like its pretty set now tho... hasn't changed in a minute.

girl: u are number 27 for all cities and number 2 for san diego. like i said, prob best to concern urself with ur own reviews ya know? if u see something thats an issue on someone's page, report it to TER, otherwise just bask in the glory of being number 27 out of around a million. :D

and those of a well-established provider that has been around for a while now:
 
To start, a hypothetical question for y’all.  Do you think a provider with 89 reviews that has been around 8 years with an average of 9.2 should fall under a provider in the rating system that has been around for 6 months with 9 reviews and an average of 9.3?  Everyone has their own ideas about what makes a provider established.  I am not referring to anyone specific.  

There has to be a line drawn somewhere.  I am sure there were reasons for making a 20 review minimum and I am sure what I pose above has something to do with it.  I am sure TER admin is getting plenty of complaints about the change.  I am also sure admin had plenty of complaints requesting a larger minimum that brought about the change.  

Of course reviewer’s perceptions vary, but I see guidelines being disregarded every day.  The review guidelines are there for a reason and they are specific.  There are standards.  From what I read, they might be being used too loosely in some cases but that is just my opinion.  Once again, I am not referring to anyone specific.

This is not an opinion!  I know women who offer free time and discounts for positive reviews.  I have also seen outright lies told about provider to show them in a positive light (as well as negative).  Changing names multiple times to avoid carrying over reviews is also becoming a problem.   Bad reviews written by seasoned hobbyists are being removed time and time again.

There is really no way to stop this behavior other than bringing it up in hopes of bringing about acts of integrity.  I remember a time when I felt reviews were fair but I don’t always feel that anymore for whatever reason…..mainly experience.  Alright, I have probably said quite enough.  These are my thoughts.
 
Ciao,
Belle

Arden, it's sad, but some folks will always find a way to "game" the system, especially one based on raw score. And gentlemen (and ladies) shopping to accumulate experiences based on a perceived "bucket list" of Top 100 providers are missing so much...that's a numbers game in which I'm not interested.
Remember how we used to hope for teachers who would grade "on the curve" rather than straight performance? All reviewers grade on some sort of personal curve, and it's best to look at their review history to get a sense of their approach. If it's all 10s, either they've been very lucky, very careful in their research, very easy in their evaluation...or simply don't bother to review average or below average experiences.  
When I'm interested in someone, I pay far more attention to the words (and yes, being visual, the pictures as well), than to the numbers. Do some homework, and look beyond the average - we're talking about people and interpersonal relationships, no matter how fleeting...
Remember The Prisoner? "I am a not a number! I am a free man!"
Neither are you a number, dear lady, and never will be.
And I am very grateful to have had the pleasure of your company.

TER had no choice but to make the 20 review rule since, ladies and gentlmen are baltant about playing what I now call "The Review Game". I think the list should come down. Issue solved. Perhaps they feel it's a perk for VIP's.
But no, it's not fair to many ladies on many levels. A couple weeks ago a duo with only 5 reviews was at the top of the list for the whole country.
PS. These types of ladies have lower reviews removed, so of course they are consistant. Like I ssaid, the system can and is being used. So don't worry.. the 20 review thing just slows it up a bit.

However, I find it truly interesting that my post has initially regarding how myself and others are now getting backlash from this little game.  
Asking how you gentlemen feel seeing all 10's, but not getting that experience?
Trying to get your thoughts on the back lash we have to take? I didn't point any fingers.
It's interesting that a handful would go on defense of their reviews, when they don't have a list of 10 reviews they have written. But the one's that have been written you back by name.

I'm sure if I saw a girl at a 30% special off her "posted rate" and she whitelisted me on top of it. Then requested I write her a review.
I would probably feel like a owe her a stellar review too.

As far as, not giving a F'. Well, I'm glad all don't feel that way. Since the reviews are meant to be a resource for everyone worldwide.
I know if a movie company paid for good reviews and I wasted my hard earned money on a 2 hour yawn. I'd be upset.
But perhaps that is too simple a point...

Luv & Hugs,
AM

TER just wants more reviews.  The list and its rules are just designed to draw more reviews with more salacious details.  TER is porn.

Big Kiss, Arden.

took me 2+ years to make the list. i had a full year with no reviews even. another provider even told me about the list. she was so excited we were both ranked so well for san diego and i was excited she pointed it out to me...

the 100 list isn't anything. its a privilege to be on (i think) and i feel confident in the way its ranked. sure, there are ladies who get a white knight to write a review, but thats one or two out of how many? the real reviews are usually easy to spot if there are "fluffed" ones. plus, everybody talks about everybody so it won't be long till word gets out even without reviews being posted.

so, the problem with guys complaining about previous encounters:
well, when friends of mine begin reliving a bad experience i let them give me the gist then i scold them for thinking of another women when my nekkid body is rite there to replace that memory and pounce on them! chatter and gossip are for school girls not for me and my dates. i like hearing what they like, not what they didn't like just like i'm sure you guys don't want to hear about how my client last week was sooo hairy it was like hugging a cuddly bear or a bad experience with a client... remember: its YOUR time. make it all about you (both of you, us, them... not people not there). :)

just shake ur booty and they'll forget the past and focus on the present!

okay. I really don't want to beat a dead horse, but the SD list and US list will change significantly when 2 ladies (read my prior posts) get only 5 more reviews and, if they are consistent with prior reviews, (which I am quite confident they will be ) will move to number 1 and 2 in SD (not sure which is 1 and which is 2 since it is dependent on future reviews and with Cierra and others back in the mix who knows) and in the top 20 in the US. Which is where they were prior to the 20 review requirement and where they will be (at least in my opinion) once they hit 20.  But I still hold to my agreement with Arden that this is so subjective it matters not much. As she says the top whatever list is redundant to a VIP since they can search for just about anything. To her point that perhaps this is something TER has done to add enhancement to VIP, I don't think so or otherwise they would advertise it as a benefit of VIP. ( which I guess they kinda do but not as it relates specifically to this 20 review requiremment to be on a top list}

Its manipulation of the system, another form of bait and switch going on with some "stellar" reviews. Its very obvious when you see the honest reviews magically disappear after a few days.

I have not written real reviews since I feel other guys should learn the hard way just as I did falling for the over the top false or controlled reviews. Most of the pay per ad websites are full of the same bait and switch ads from agencies so its no surprise some ladies use their clients to help them attract more work through bloated reviews "write me a review with 10's".

TER should factor total number of reviews into the list as a primary factor, the minimum number being increased is at least a good start to slow down the lies and scams.  

Lately I've seen a few providers who I expected to be 10's only to find out they are 6's in looks with a performance of 4 or 3 being very spoiled and cold personalities with high rates or "specials" and claiming to be GFE when its just another no frills quicky not much better than my own hand.

firstly, i am with u on the 20 review minimum. i even think it should be more than 20. and the point u bring up is a prime example.

next:

"Of course reviewer’s perceptions vary, but I see guidelines being disregarded every day.  The review guidelines are there for a reason and they are specific.  There are standards.  From what I read, they might be being used too loosely in some cases but that is just my opinion.  Once again, I am not referring to anyone specific." -hotsouthernbelle
_________________________________________________________


these are the TER posted rating guidelines.

"For performance ratings, it is asked that you please save the 8, 9, and 10 ranks for situations where out of the ordinary services are provided (i.e. Blow Job - without condom, Kissing - with tongue, Anal - Yes, and Really Bi - Yes). Of course, the 10 rating should be reserved for an experience that is really worth a million!

An escort provider is only eligible to earn up to a 7, unless she is willing to perform one or some of the following during a session: Kisses With Tongue, Bare-Back Blow Job, Really Bi, and Anal Sex. For each of these services that are offered, her potential max score is raised by one point, with 10 as an absolute maximum.

This does not mean she earns extra points for offering these service(s); just that she is now eligible for a higher score. Her maximum eligible score is based on what is offered, not what is performed during your session with her. You may or may not be interested in the “extra” services she offers, but the fact she offers them makes her eligible for the higher score."


***
make sure when looking at other ladies reviews to look at what is offered (not given in the review). what is offers can increase the top rating.

In My experiences.... I enjoy the Classy men that Visit SD on Business.  Besides the handfull of regulars I see.

From my experience- men return and ask for my company, Probably cause im down to earth and classy.  No drama, low volume for sure.  It has nothing to do with me being #6... It's about the way Iam and the way we connect.

Being Low volume has alot to say about me and the men that ask me out on a date.  Its a gift to be able to meet men that In the real world,  I wouldn't  cross that line.  

On here is a Sure thing, of what  is expected, and what we offer.

Reviews are GREAT!!!!

Best of luck to all.

don't get this post AM. I am not cheering for anyone and not a member of any squad.  Just pointing out facts and will point out that virtually all your posts in this thread have been modified by the moderator so that is perhaps why I don't get it. This post makes no sense.  Not sure what the moderator deleted but I'm left with a WTF on this post particularly in light of the fact that you thanked me for "making your point" in a prior post. But as I said and you confirmed, we are all beating a dead horse. It will end up where it does and in the end be horribly biased and twisted. So one has to make their own choices. But I can say that basically what I do when researching is do a search for 8 to 8.5 averages and above (depending on the city), include certain personal preferences and hit enter. Sometimes I get way too many and have to revise. And then I dig into reviews and websites and try to narrow it down to a few. I also look at other local sites (particularly in the central valley in cali) and try to make some choices. This has worked well for me and, in fact, under this exact research protocol I was going to try and contact you last time in SD but had to leave a few days early. But based on the tone of your responses here I am getting the sense that today that would not  be a productive inquiry.

I'm in san deigo for a biz trip but I'm originally from DC. Recently, on DC board some shit for brains who has something against me had publically tried to humiliate one of my reviews that I had given for a girl.

I gave her a 10/10 and it was one of the best reviews I had ever given. I don't normally write ANY reviews unless the girl asks for it or deserves a 10. I wrote it in an artistic manner to reflect her true beauty and everything that went on inside my mind psychologically during the session...  

Of course, you can't really keep things artistic and beautiful if you put in all the graphic/explicit sexual shit. Plus I'm really really tired of seeing the same alphabet soup rotation of sexual positions on 20 different reviews.

TER admin were fine with it and accepted my review.

Many thought it was interesting beautifully written. Yet ONE shit head comes along, decides to post it on the board claiming it's one of the most useless reviews ever written. LOL  

Indeed, it was one of the most popular discussion at the time. Some people have taken turns taking pot shots ranging from "that's the most pathetic pussy-whipping I've ever seen, Dude must be in love" to "did they even have sex?" lol

In the end, though... majority have ultimately supported me and so I came out smelling like roses.  

Yet the shit-for-brains fucker then files a complaint, this time TER has no choice but to 'stick to guidelines' being under the intense scrutiny and spotlight, even though they initially had no problem with it, and the review was taken down.  Now I gotta re-write the review... :(  

Fortunately, TERadmin seems supportive as well and doesn't really have a problem with my review other than including some minor details.

Since my name has been mentioned not only here but on some other local boards, I decided I would give my 2cents. First of all, I want to thank all the wonderful gentleman that have written reviews for me. I have NEVER offered "specials for reviews" nor have I white listed someone for a 10/10, and I am not in the habit of asking for a review ... UNTIL the 20 minimum was implemented. My eggs were in one basket; I don’t like to post on multiple sites. TER is 90% of my business and I am very grateful for the site and the list; a majority of my clients found me on the list. Do I agree with the 20 minimum? Yes, I do for many reasons. Do I think it’s fair to be #2 or even #10 when someone has 20 reviews vs. 50 or more? No, I don’t. This is how I see it; (1) new ladies come and go and the spot light will be shared. I may be in the top 10 for a while and then a few months later someone else will be in the spot light for a while... ENJOY IT AND HAVE FUN WITH IT.... I AM & WILL. (2) the gentlemen that contact me are educated and very intelligent and do their homework, so whether I am in the top 10 or top 20, they know how to find a good thing ;) Additionally, I have a lot of respect for the women in this business, especially the ones that provide references and refer me business... which happens often (thank you) and I always reciprocate.  Finally, I would challenge any MAN or WOMAN to book with me should they have any doubt that I do not live up to my reviews :) XO Peaceout.

WOMAN?  Your encouraging ladies to book with you, Heidi???  Oh come on now. Let's get real babe.

You know I think your an awesome lady and literally went out of my way to help you when you first arrived here to SD but don't you think encouraging ladies to book with you when your not even bi sexual is a bit far fetched and on the edge of false advertisement?  

Lets keep it real, please! There's ENOUGH BS flying around to add more to it!
