Suggestion for a new rule for reviews

Require that reviews are clear as to whether BJs and intercourse (either kind) involved a cover, or not.

Most reviews are clear as to whether a cover is used for BJs, and often the acronyms BBBJ and CBJ are used.  In addition, there's a profile option to indicate if the provider does CBJs or BBBJs in general--although often a review will be contrary to the profile.  

But I often see reviews where there's no mention of a cover being used for intercourse, nor does it clearly say the intercourse was bareback.  But frequently, the way the review is written, there's a strong implication that there was no cover.  I saw another one of those yesterday, for a provider I know well and who I'm sure doesn't do BBFS.  But clients who don't know her well won't know that, and many hobbyists (including me) won't see providers who engage in BBFS with clients.  

This kind of thing hurts both providers and hobbyists.  It's something that reviews need to be clear about. Since TER needs to read all review text anyway, it should be easy to add a check for mention of a cover, or mention of bareback.  And if it's not there, send the review back for editing.  

Not too long ago someone on my radar got a new review and he didn't make it clear. He didn't say BBFS, but he didn't say anything about a cover either. Like you, I felt he'd implied BBFS, and like you I'm not interested in seeing someone who does that with clients. I had to BC to confirm a cover was used, he said he unfortunately forgot to mention it in the review. I felt he was sincere that it was an accidental oversight and if his review had been bounced back because of it, I don't think he would've had a problem with that.

Good idea.

Welcome to Nitpicking 101..

add a check box  _no cover  _cover   Yes, duplicate the text of the review for something so important>  

A few scenarios to illustrate that a simple checkbox like that could be more trouble than it's worth:

* "no cover" is checked.  Reviewer did that because he got a BBBJ--didn't understand the purpose for the checkbox.  FS, if any, was covered.  Provider will show up in searches for "no cover".

* "no cover" is checked.  Reviewer meant to check "covered" but goofed (happens all the time on reviews).  Delay in correcting review, if it's corrected at all.  Provider will show up in searches for "no cover".

* "no cover" is checked.  Review was by a female so of course it was uncovered.  Provider will show up in searches for "no cover".
