So obviously reviews help both provider's and hobbyists alike! Reading them lets the client know roughly what a girl offers, a bit about her temperament, and most importantly that she's real and not a scammer, and for providers well..it brings us our clients

But not by just 1 or 2 hobbyists
If she has consistent 6's or lower in both looks and performance. I'm out!

If a provider has many reviews, then I'll use the scores as a floor, below which I won't venture. That serves for both appearance and performance. For those with just a few reviews, then appearance will win out, again only above a certain level.  

..particularly since TER has attached an arbitrary definition to each number. Taken literally I can give out only one 10 for performance, ever, because she was "once in a lifetime". The reality is 10 is the highest level and many women can perch there at the same time. What is my definition of a 9.... one notch below a 10. Drill down. You get the idea. TER also has arbitrary rules for even qualifying for 10. There are a number of women who rocked my world yet the rules forbid me giving them a 10.  

in a town I haven't visited in a while. Once I see the list of possibles, I then start reading the details in the reviews, checking provider websites for photos (does Jr. like what he sees), a little bit about her, and her calendar to see if she is available.

until a very affable, well intentioned, retired actuary and 'aggregates' made it corrupt.  

Hmm, really? So if she's by appointment so has no calendar she's written off? Interesting thought...I've never had a calendar. Wonder who else shares that approach.

To the numbers, our 5 6 or 7 could be someone else's 8 9 and 10, i want to know if pics are correct,   and if she smokes or not, we gather everything else from the reviews,and the wife reads those,i dont.....numbers are pointless especially if you habe pictures and decent reviews to go off of.

Just like any other business the higher reviews or scores.
It gives the customer a good insight into the service they may receive themselves in the future.

 That being said...is a numerical score necessary? In regards to attractiveness, well like the saying go beauty is in the eye of the beholder plus one can easily describe the looks of a provider in a couple of sentences...and for the score on performance, again a few sentences, I believe, can give you all you need.  
   
 What are your thoughts? Do you place any weight on the numerical scores when making a decision to see a girl or not, if so why?  
   
 

The  actual review is far more important

but taken as a whole, the overall ratings are useful. They DO usually represent a provider's generally perceived appearance, performance and menu. Most of us are easily able to "screen out" obviously skewed numbers, and most of us rely on the written parts of a review or two.

Does provide a bit of filter tool and, not that I really care (probably checked it a total of 5 time times since being on TER), where would the top 100 list go?

If I were in charge of TER, I would not have a numerical score for looks. Everyone has their own preferences for looks and that would be hard to put on a 1-10 scale.
