I hate to use an alias and apologize in advance, but the identity of the provider would be disclosed if I used my normal username.  I wrote a review recently where I gave 7/7 and said I was unlikely to repeat because of some personal preferences, but did state I had fun and thought she was professional.  I received an e-mail from the provider ragging at me because of the rating and taking shots at the size of my manhood.  WTF!?  Have any of you written what you thought was a positive review, only to be blindsided by someone who thinks 9/9 should be the norm?

It's never happened to me but come on, you can't honestly be surprised by this.  Hope you don't wind up on any DNS lists over it...

This exact scenario happened to me recently.  I met a local provider that has pages of 9s and many 10s.  My time with her was not that good.  Good, but not great.  I waited a while to write the review, carefully thought about my impressions, then submitted a 8/7 review.  In the written text I explained some of the YMMV reasons why my time with her may not have been as good as other guys.

About three days after the review goes up, I get an email from her saying she couldn't accept anything less than 8s and 9s.  Asked me to change my review.  I politely said no and told her why.  She was not happy.

(Alias used for obvious reasons)

I can't read the review so I have to take your word for what you wrote...  but that seems like a fair & honest review & positive.  I see ladies with level # 7 reviews.  
I can't imagine getting grief over this review.

Nuff said!

All I will say is congrats masked muff lover I dont know who you are but if you were honest your review is much more helpful than a million 9's.  Sometimes you got to take a little heat

I saw your site and one picture in particular shows you are a wascally wittle wabbit!  You don't have to ask me what's up doc.

This has happened to me but to a lesser degree. I gave the provider a 9 for performance and a 7 for looks.  Now understand this girl is definitely model material but after the clothes came off i noticed many tattoos.  Its just not what does it for me.  She just could not understand how she could possibly rate lower than 9 on looks.

When I read it, I said to myself, "Boy is this guy going to catch it!"

It read like a reasonable review. It was also not the first 7/7 she's got. Just don't worry.

It sounds like Masked and Simple have seen Miss H in Orlando. (I'd love to hear back from you guys if I am right...just between us) Even if I am wrong, the interesting thing is that this type of provider is arrogant and a real turn off. The person I am thinking of called a provider friend of mine and told her that she "only accepts 9s for reviews" and "only sees good looking guys, no unattractive ones." I called once to ask about her fee, which she never publishes. She said min $xxx. That was a little outside of my budget and I hesitated for a moment.  She said "Listen, when guys see how good looking I am, they just start laying down extra money." I thought that was so pompous.

This also brings up another good point.  TER cleary defines the appearance scale.  8 is really hot, 9 is model material, and 10 is once in a lifetime.  I see guys giving out 9s and 10s all the time to women that to most men would be very cute, but not once in a lifetime.  Think of the women of Victoria's Secret.  Most of them are 9s, and the very hottest one is a 10. This 1-10 scale is not what us guys would use for a really hot woman at work.  Sure we would say she is a 10, but that is not what TER defined. We should stick to the scale and be accurate so the meaning does not get diluted.  I recently gave an attractive woman a 7 and I wondered if she was dissapointed.   But 7 is just that, attractive.
Sorry for my long post, and to answer your question directly, no one has ever called to criticize my ratings.
One more thing, it is totally out of line for her to call Masked back and insult his manhood.  I am surprised you are so kind as to keep her name secret.  These reviews are here to give praise to the wonderful ladies and to protect us hobbyists from women that are bad news and she sounds like just that: Bad news.

You gave an honest review and you stuck by it. Good job! I'm proud you guys didn't bow down to the pussy and change it or post inflated scores just because. Too many people on TER would change their review or rate higher than they wanted just so theirs fit in so they didn't get the shit you guys got. If everyone just gave glowing 9/9 and 10/10 reviews this place wouldn't be worth shit. I wanna know the truth, and thanks for tellin it like it is. (I assume you did so politely and respectfully of course, otherwise you're an idiot).

First..  a 7/7 is NOT a bad score. I don't know why some of these women on here are flipping out over it. It's like if you can't get a 9/9 every time people will ignore you. I look at 7/7's & up all the time. I've even considered a few 6's. There's always a YMMV issue. I rated a Ashlet Taylor a 7 in looks when she was consistently 9's and 10's and I got a TON of PM's asking what changed. I said prob nothing, she's just not my type. I gave her a 10 in performance, but looks-wise I look for someone a little different.

Second.. The fact that she sent you a nasty email about the review and then criticized the size of your "manhood" is despicable and you should OUT THE BITCH!! There's no need for childish behavior like that, and IMHO shows a total lack of maturity on her part and is clearly not someone I would want to ever see (hopefully I have not seen her and if I have, once I find out who she is I will stop seeing her).

No matter what the provider does after you have posted your review, always tell the truth!! How can anyone know what's wrong if no-one ever says anything - you can't fix it if you don't know of it. If your chemistry didn't mix so well - there is always the chance of that in any setting. Understand that some people need to resort to insulting others to boost their own self esteem. I personally would want to know what I could do to make things better - there is usually a solution for every problem. Hope you don't let this color your day too darkly!!

From one provider's perspective, I just had this conversation with a new lady today who had one good review and one not-so-good review on another board.

I shared with her that it is GOOD to have SOME variance in your ratings/reviews cuz if they are all the same, then it truly does speak of their validity cuz one may feel that they are sugar-coated.  Having some variance shows that you are a real human being and everyone does have their own desires. There really is nothing wrong with a rating of 7.

Honestly, a review is a gift - similar to a tip - in this industry and one should never look a gift horse in the mouth.  Unfortunately, it only speaks of this woman's character and lack of gratitude that the gent actually took time from his life to post his experience ... afterall, that is NOT included in the donation.

The text of the review is more important than the number score anyway.  I expect to see a reasonable range.  I do look for consistancy but a rare low mark (a 7 is not low) does not disqualify if the text explains why.  

I always take pains to write a truthful review, and in a few cases I wrote a draft & let it sit for a week to gain perspective & edited before posting.  An insulting response message from a provider after carefully reviewing would show me a bad attitude & ensure that I'd NEVER recommend her to anyone.

Emailing you complaining about the review is totally unproffesional and should be added to your review.  There is no call for that or to be asked to change the review.  Your opinions are your own.  I know everything I'm writing has already been stated above ,  but it's true.  Without honest reviews, what is the point of this site.

I would never scold someone for having their own opinion.  She sounds very immature, rude and unprofessional.  

I have received some 7's and have seen those gents more than one time.  I will continue to see them.  A 7 for looks is a good score.  

7 for looks = Attractive
7 for performance = Hot Time

Where is the BAD in that?!?  I would rather have a variety of honest reviews than to pressure someone into giving higher numbers.  

I have seen a few ladies complain about receiving 7's etc.  Sorry.  Unless the guy is giving you a 2 that you do not deserve, a 7 is a complimentary score.  Get over it.  Instead of bitching about it, try saying Thank You.

Hugs, Betty

I said this once or twice, for me a good score without a recommendation, despite someone qualifying it, is useless to me, so I see why she may be upset.

Recently, I interviewed someone and I read a letter of recommendation that said, she is great but she was not a fit for our office - translation, she did not get along with others.  Result, no second interview.  See my point

My opinion, for a highly reviewed lady with 8 or 9, what is the point in giving a 7, because the chemistry was not there.

I think the review should be edited to include the text of the email she sent you.

You know, and I'm sure I'm not alone in this, there's a lot more to a woman than what she looks like and specific physical acts. There is attitude, character, sense of humor, intelligence, etc.

I, for one, care about these things; and I try to get some hint of them from reviews.

Appending your experience to her review would certainly help guys like me make wise selections.

If your review ratings were well below average for her, as it sounds, her reaction is not surprising.  Is 7/7 below average for reviews you have posted?  If so, your review will stick out, and will draw more attention.  Your comment about being unlikely to repeat will also get noticed, and may carry extra weight if you are a name brand here, and have many reviews.  Also, since she has lashed out at you, it's possible you just got added to a few DNS lists...

So that other hobbyists know that she has tried to manipulate her reviews.

I would also suggest alerting ter admin.

If she is contacting her reviewers and making demands then she is a rip-off.

Muff I need those carrots to spy all the little pieces of manhood from the guys that give me 7's as well.(just kidding)Life is short play hard and write honest reviews.

they flirted with the teacher in school to pass?  Anyhow, them numbers are not nearly as important as what verbiage you write.  As a hobbyist, I don't search for high expectatations (9 or 10) but for lower numbers (usually a 7).  Then I read the reviews to select the lady to see.

That is, it is not easy if you also wish to avoid getting sucked into a vortex of back channel back stabbing and DNS listings.

The only way to try to avoid this would be to make sure that no provider ever gets your TER handle.  Even then, it wouldn't take a genius to read a well written, accurate review and then think, "Hey, I know that SOB and I'm going to contact him to get him to raise my score."  Such is life here at TER.  Not perfect.

On the other hand, all it cost me was a P411 whitelisting, no possibility of a referral, and the time it took me to write a long, detailed, polite reply to her demand for a better score.  Meanwhile, it has cost her any chance of ever getting my repeat business and never getting a recommedation from me when asked by any potential customers.  It seems to me that she has killed one golden goose while trying to steal the eggs.  Or something like that.

If I find that I have subsequently made it to any DNS lists, then maybe I will have to evaluate my live and let live attitude.

only the review history, not the handle.

it would protect against that kind of action, unless like you say, she recognizes the situation you describe.

there is also review fraud. guys make up reviews for sessions that never happened. i guess the 15 days of free membership is just to big a temptation. LOL! anyway there needs to be some way of tracking down reviews that are false or have safety issues and pulling them.

accounts because I notice after 5 years of being a date-check member, I had a lot of checkig out my profile.  I noticed that the activity comes from other posters on TER and I am a frequent poster on this board.

So goes the song....somebody watching me
