Not how long it takes to approve a review, though before I relocated to another part of the country many of my reviews were approved in a matter of hours while now it's routinely taking 3-4 days. My rant is that since relocating, reviews have been unapproved for the most INANE reasons.

My most recent review - a warning to others based on what happened to me - was disapproved because I reported that a co-worker of the provider I saw called me "biatch" many times after the 1st provider ripped me off. I didn't call her a biatch but the reason for not approving was that I did.

I made the required revision but when it was finally approved it had been edited, omitting key facts like the reference to her her friend attacking me & her pimp entering the room with a baseball bat gripped like he was going to hit a home run with my head. IT'S NOT THE REVIEW I SUBMITTED. Now, readers won't be aware of a potentially dangerous situation because TER's revisions softened the impact of this horrendous encounter.

TER engenders a love/hate relationship with hobbyists & providers alike with arbitrary, ego-driven decisions but the review approval process has devolved to the point that it does a disservice key contributors of the site - the reviewers.

pretty well in your review.

Perhaps Administration is concerned with making charges and opening itself up to a lawsuit.  That seems like a reasonable policy to me.

As for you, what were you thinking calling in security and opening yourself up to a charge of prostitution?

And why were you TOFTT here?

In any case, I commend you for warning us about this gal, but you needn't take such risks.

As for the 3-4 day lag in getting reviews up, this has been discussed a lot already.  The bottom line is that TER is taking their time to tighten up and research reviews more thoroughly so that phoney ones don't get through as often, which I also think is reasonable.

i think that the edited review is sufficient as warning, though. the details that you  included, now edited out, might have been open to he said - she said controversy.

by editing the review and toning it down a little i believe TER has assured the review will have more longevity. with more inflammatory but true detail the provider might have been able to apply pressure for its removal.

although these are all "works of fiction" TER undertakes certain risks in publishing them. so edits are necessary to preserve the review.

The more unemotional you need to make it.  It will be more likely to getthrough the screeners and less likely to be perceived by someone reading it as a vendetta.

Anyone who reads this review will know better than to book her.

pretty valid observations Mr Fisher...somethings fishy..

Your review said this and I quote...

"fat, pig-faced friend named Kitty,"

This type of abusive language is not allowed in reviews. You also were explicitly told this fact by my staff.

MY REVIEW WAS TURNED DOWN FOR NOT BEING OBJECTIVE. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
If you speculate on something about the provider that we cannot verify, such as she seemed to be high on drugs, was drunk, diseased, or some other supposition, your review will be rejected on that basis. Your review will also be turned down for using foul language. Even if you have been ripped off, please try to keep the tone of your review at a mature, fair level.

... to describe a provider's build so I don't understand why my description of her was abusive. I deleted that from my revised review per your instruction. Her friend Kitty was quite u-g-l-y & attacked me, repeatedly calling me "biatch", as I reported. IMO, that is not using foul language but I deleted that, too, per your instruction.

After making the 2 revisions at your staff's direction my review was arbitrarily modified further by them then approved.

Pardon me while I heartily guffaw. Where in the holy hell are you doing your shopping? Sounds like you scraped the deepest bottom of the gutter to dig up a crack head and her crew. You don't, like, expect sympathy do you? What was the agreed upon amount? $20 and a bag of chips?

Instead of indignation, hang your head in humiliation and slap yourself for even admitting to putting yourself into that position in the first place.

it makes you kind of not wanna put any reviews up here if it ends up not really being your true review...

As I said, my review was intended to warn others, not solicit sympathy. Did you even read my review??? The agreed upon amount was $100 for hhr. This was an anomoly. I assume the risk of seeing unreviewed providers & have had many good times doing so. A high percentage of these dates have been good but nobody's 100%.
