I dont understand this review system here.. how TER and let a guy flat out lie in a review? I just read my last one, which is complete BS! I first of all have never been HO-Hum about anything, and ALWAYS clean and use mouthwash and brush my teeth and body, and like I would not have brushed my hair? I cant belive that he would lie like that! and I have been told numerous times I look better in person!
If this is the guy I may think it is, it is the guy that had laid the donation down, then as I was in the bathroom, picked it up, and had it in his hand by the television, and was going to leave till I looked and had to say "did you take care of the..." and he said "yes here it is" and laid it down AGAIN... so he was actually going to take off with the $$$
So I dont know if he was mad because I caught him, and he did not get away with it, or if I never saw this guy at all... I know ALOT of providers are having their TER reviews removed due to the fact that ALOT of guys LIE and make up a review to keep memberships... So I dont know what TER can do to have that LIE removed?
While his comments are not flattering, it is hard to say that he is flat out lying. He didn't appear to enjoy the encounter and perhaps he was overly negative and undiplomatic, but this could still be his perception (whether flawed or not).
I know because I KNOW ME and I know what I do to prepare for a visit, which would not leave me in any way unclean!! thats how know...not flattering, no he made comments on my hygiene which is sooo false!
He said your breath was not too hot. You could have the world's freshest breath in your opinion and in reality, but maybe that's what this person actually felt (or else he is just trying to be really negative). He said your hair seemed tangled and sticky. In his opinion it may have seemed that way. No one is saying his perception is a fact, but rather a perception. If he had said you smell fresh as a daisy, that probably wouldn't have been challenging, but it may have been equally problematic.
riker, what *is* the actual procedure (not the policy) about contested reviews?
it seems to me a review should never be removed short of flat out conclusive proof it is wacky (boilerplate copied from a web site, descriptions copied from another review for the same provider, etc.). a lady protesting a review falls far short of that. the provider should be allowed to file an exception statement or a protest, certainly, and this should appear in the page that presents the review -- but the review should stand.
i recently posted a lukewarm review of a berkeley, ca massage provider named fiona. this was her first review on ter. then, just a few days later, this formerly unknown minx got a second review from "bluethrills" which to my eye reads more like a marketing brochure. (i especially liked "she arouses you in ways i can't even begin to describe." the common marketeer's writing block aside, note the peculiar use of "you" rather than "me.") that, and the fact that bluethrills has reviewed every provider west of montreal makes me suspect the accuracy of what's there. but, so what? it's the accumulated mass of reviews that matter.
I would not fault TER for erring on the side of the lady in a review dispute. It is her reputation that is at stake. At the same time, there have been girls who have disputed every negative review that has come along. After the second or third time a negative review is disputed, the girl is now in question. Her reviews stand. But if, once in a while a provider says this or that never happened, there is a judgment call to make based on a couple of questions: 1) Is there any evidence to prove the review is wrong, such as a preponderance of good reviews, stating the opposite. 2) What is the history of problem reports for this gal? Staff makes those judgment calls.
But in order to maintain the balance in the reviews, I think everyone should report problems of any discrepancy from both sides of the equation.
i wasn't posting here because i didn't read the review guidelines.
i was posting here because the procedure seems to be to throw out the information you receive through the review process.
look at the problem this way: is there a pattern to these "bad reviews" that should be squelched? are the offended ladies truly "random" in that they don't tend to come from any particular type of provider? or, as i suspect, are they more likely to occur with minxes who are racking up a lot of positive reviews? perhaps working too hard? maybe overextending themselves? and one day just fell down?
and who are these reviewers? do you get the random one review from a user id that never appears again, or are some of them churning out one or two a year? then, why isn't that indicated in the reviewer profile, so the rest of us know how to interpret their work?
here's all i'm saying: DON'T ERASE THE RECORD. short of obvious proof the review is a straight up fabrication, leave it. let the minx flag it, "provider disagrees" or whatever, but make that obvious also in the listing of user reviews, so we can see it immediately.
the current ad hoc policy only ends up reducing the information available.
Your solution to the "not a problem" seems to be to add cogs to the machine.
Every reviewer has their own profile. You can call it up from the review or click on it here in my message. So you CAN see what reviews I've written, when and what the ratings were. No problem there.
A review doesn't get removed just because a girl disputes it. But she has a right to dispute it, and a judgment call has to be made.
Everything in the universe functions by a balance of forces. TER is an organic entity created by you, me and a few hundred thousand other people. There is give and take, and conflict from time to time. The balance is created by both sides, each with their own right and obligation to make the thing work.
If it were my call, I'd let the review stand, but a girl deserves to dispute it and have her dispute stand from time to time as well, if her case has the ring of truth to it, founded by any variety of evidences.
The machine does not need more cogs, just greater cognition on the part of we who rely on it.
somehow, i had the idea that letting a review stand, letting the provider object to the review if she chose, letting the contested reviews form part of the reviewer's total list of reviews ... all these things were just letting the testimony fall where it may. and that was the *simple* thing to do.
adding cogs? no, riker, i'm removing the invisible, coglike executive committee that is behind the scenes massaging and covering the reputation of selected providers ... including acquaintances, perhaps, friends, or just those genuine strangers who complain most sweetly, most plausibly, most entreatingly?
the committee is a cog. it doesn't need to be there. it serves no useful purpose. it is destroying information.
the concept of "facts" or "truth" that is used to justify the process is completely mythical. there is just text in a database. the reviews are being filtered, which means bad providers are given a pass, or bad reviewers are being scrubbed of their bad work.
wasn't it your recollection, riker, that infamous ROB claudia had at one time protested her ROB designation, and so it was removed? what service was performed by the coglike executive committee when it granted her request?
It is my understanding that there is an average of 400 reviews submitted every day, seven days a week, even on Christmas. If my numbers are right, that would be around 150,000 reviews submitted each year. People at TER have a very difficult job to do, given the volume, deciding which to approve, and which not. Staff has been very clear in saying that they can't do a perfect job, and he appreciates when others, like the membership, catch a problem.
However, I have never heard of an Executive Committee at TER, and don't believe there is one. If you know otherwise, could you please enlighten me? Thanks.
It seems to me that the closest thing to a committee is us, the membership, who are in a good position to spot things that shouldn't have been posted. And I think that is how it should be.
We are the committee. And so is Sasha. We see a problem, we fix it. It's never right or fair to point fingers at anyone but ourselves for anything we perceive to be a problem with TER.
There is a suggestions page. If we think there is a better way to use the technology, or present the information, we can take our suggestion there. This is how TER has become as good as it is. It's been created by us. And it continues to get refined by us. Things don't change overnight, but they've improved around here damn fast, and continue to.
I'm just kidding, you can take whatever tone you'd like.
The reviews must be filtered to a degree. We don't want everybody and anybody to be able to post anything and everything they want to post. There are false reviews. False reviews do not help us. They must be filtered or it's all useless. The filtering process is not perfect, but nothing is perfect. Balance is what we seek, because it's the best we can do.
Through the process, Claudia was able to have her rip-off status removed, because it went uncontested (it lacked balance). When you brought it to my attention, I disputed it with clear evidence that she belonged on the rip-off list. The process returned the balance and she is back on the rip-off list where she belongs.
You are suggesting that there be more fields and more buttons, more functionality in the engine to allow some sort of provider flagging on a review with some sort of notation attached to the reviewers profile. These are more actions for us to take, more words to read, more cogs that are unnecessary in a machine that works well, if you know how to use it.
Again, this is not TER. TER is us. We create it. It's our words, our perceptions, our efforts. There is a committee, and it's us; me and you.
Let me add, again, that as part of the committee, I would elect to let this particular review stand. There is not enough proof here that it's false, but that it may be a simple matter of perspective.
Drorelle, I sorry to hear that you had a less than pleasing experience with Fiona. Per your review, there was lack of chemistry ... Perhaps, a good reason why the term YMMV was coined.
Also, I think you need to get your facts straight. You were NOT THE FIRST one to review Fiona. Unfortunately, Fiona's reviews got put into two threads, i.e two distinct and independent profiles were created for the same person. I informed TER about that problem, and they consolidated the threads into one.
My experience was much different. I don't want to get into a long drawn out "pissing" contest -- but, I don't appreciate your slanderous tone, or any insinuations thereof. I am honest, objective, and conduct myself with the utmost integrity.
i had to laugh ... slanderous tone. and it's spelled "insinuations."
let's keep to the substantive points. first: there is no bright line between subjective and objective reviews, or truthful and fabricated reviews. could i raise doubts about your review of fiona? yes, i did that in my last post. who's to decide?
second: if there is no bright line, let the reviews stand. let providers file an exception that is tagged on the review, let other users tag objections .. but don't just delete content and throw it away, unless it is obviously bogus (i gave examples in a previous post).
third: was i the first to post on fiona? well, bluethrills (whose review is dated the same month as mine), you decide: before i wrote my review, i searched for fiona using the profile search function. i got 0 OF 0 PAGES FOUND. what's your objection to that?
what does "put into two threads" mean exactly -- that your review got put in a page you could read but the search function couldn't find? have we discovered a flaw in the ter database software?
and as for a "long drawn out pissing contest," good news for you: i've stuck to the issues, and i'm done.
for the same girl. This happens when phone numbers, names or Web site ads are changed and it is not immediately clear that it is the same girl. This is what happened with Fiona. Your search should have found her, if you had searched correctly.
1)Did you search by name? 2)Did you include bad Web sites? 3)Did you search by phone number?
Like all advanced search engines the results will be as fine as the criteria by which you search. If your criteria is too fine, you’ll miss what you’re looking for.
I find it hard to believe that Sasha could offer anything less than a Hot Time given her consistent reviews ( HOT TIME, FORGOT IT WAS A SERVICE, WENT THE EXTRA MILE )!
but it does seem that he saw you and is describing his encounter. This is different from a totally fabricated encounter and TER should allow it. One bad review will not discourage the true hobbyist who knows that some guys are just asses. You have enough credit in the bank to disregard this one rip.
I myself would like to look at a few different reviews before making a decision just one review is not enough because there are so many variables ps Sasha btw I have read several great reviews I would still be interested
That in a case where a lady has consistently received excellent reviews, and she receives one where it seems the reviewer had an axe to grind, that MAYBE, just maybe, she deserves the benefit of the doubt???? Once we are talking multiple negative reviews, we're talking about something different. But to use my case as an example, I have two pages of excellent reviews. It would not be difficult or even farfetched for someone... say, someone who I perhaps irritated by my posts on the board (hey, it could happen! LOL), to form a "legit sounding" review based on the other reviews that exist. Except that maybe he'd LIE, just to try to hurt me or harm me in some way.
I mean really guys, is this soooooooooo "Us against them" that you cannot give us ladies even a SHADE of that good ol' "innocent until proven guilty" ideal? If someone IS lying, what purpose does it really serve to leave the review up?
This isn't a war, really. Some of us ladies really DO, do our best for you and want the best experiences possible for you. Some of us aren't trying to fight with you but WORK WITH YOU to create the best experience possible, for BOTH of us.
I'm just kinda dumbfounded at the "it's probably a lie, but leave it up anyways" statements I'm seeing over and over again on this thread. Isn't that counterproductive????
And, FWIW, I do not think being STINKY is *subjective!* If you don't like someone's perfume, you'd say "I didn't like her perfume," vs. "She had poor hygiene" because there is a difference and I don't think it's really something most people would be confused about at all. You'd know the diff immediately! And if she is squeaky clean for everyone else, why would she be unclean and unkempt for this ONE guy????
Totally befuddled and maybe a smidge disappointed.
I wholeheartedly agree. It's not such a big mystery to discern whether a review is false or not, and the ladies do deserve the benefit of the doubt.
Notice that you don't see the ladies with poor reputations participating on the boards, or getting VIP memberships to TER. The only ladies with the propensity and ability to contest their reviews are the ones who do work hard to build, develop and maintain a good reputation.
It’s not some big conspiracy to hide the truth, or censor data. If we were to allow these false reviews to stand, the only thing we would accomplish would be to give these vindictive idiots a better tool for tainting a ladies reputation.
I was a bit hasty in saying that *stinky* was subjective. And I’m also disappointed in the war mentality, not only gentlemen against the ladies, but also the members against TER. You and I are TER and I appreciate being able to work with everyone to make it even better.
If there are true material decrepancies other than just the perceptions and you can line out your case as to why the review is false TER will remove the review. For example: he said you greeted him in cut-off jeans and you flat out know you have never greeted anyone in that outfit or where he met you is incorrect--like at an apt. and you meet everyone at a private gated home---when someone is trying to fake a review sometimes they are not real brilliant and you can see through them. Unfortunately, if you have numerous reviews it doesn't take a rocket scientist to read through them pull similarties that show up consistently and than write away. I just don't understand faking a bad review on someone if your just trying to get a free membership from TER. If it was the guy you mentioned he's and ass and forget. One bad review won't spoil it for you. YMMV does occur to all of us. Shake it off and put it behind you.
cheridan, how would anyone at ter know that you do or don't own, or wear, or wore that day cutoff jeans? it doesn't matter what you know about your taste in clothes, or your apartment's decor, it matters what the staff at ter or other readers can use to infer the review is bogus. have any of them pawed through your dresser and checked the layout of your residence? then it's your word against the reviewer.
yes, there will be disputes between you and some client about a client review, it is probably inevitable. how is a third party to decide those disputes fairly and constructively? not by a he said she said.
i can't be viewed on this board as someone who thinks the lady's best interests don't count: but on the matter of reviews the word of the lady counts ZILCH. it's simply one of two sides. so i suggested the *only* reasons a review should be deleted would be obvious ones: it's a duplicate of another review, it copies a web page, it comes from a hacked id, whatever.
effectively, ter puts itself in the position of endorsing minxes who occasionally fail a client, by permitting them to expunge the failure from their review record. what comes to mind is an ad hoc committee that grants dispensations until a pattern forms, *and then* lets the bad reviews stand. my point: if the bad reviews were left visible, the pattern would have been apparent to the rest of us that much sooner.
First time the guy said I performed serveral services I don't do. Yeah, it's hard to remember if you wore cutoff jeans that day but it's NOT hard to remember if you've performed a particular sex act especially if you've NEVER done that with a client at all! Ever! As a fbsm & s/m provider I am careful about that sort of thing as sometimes reviewers tend to get carried away and exaggerate as if they're writing for Penthouse Letters. Therefore pretty easy to figure out it was a false review.
Second time the guy wrote a grudge review due to another post I had written on a discussion board. Once I dug up the post and compared it to the the review, they mirrored each other word for word. Pretty easy to see the review was fabricated.
In both cases, Staff removed the review within hours of my e-mail. I greatly appreciate his attention and his concern for my welfare and reputation. If someone wants to give their opinion as in: I need to lose 10 lbs, my massage skills were weak, a sloppy handjob or I had a zit on my nose - or whatever - those things are all a matter of opinion and those should stand. But slander and lies should not be allowed to stay.
In Sasha's case I haven't seen the review (has it been removed??) but it seems to be a case of YMMV and should probably stand as is although I think all reviewers should be matter of fact but polite in criticisms of hygiene, etc. There is no need to be cruel.
Of how FALSE reviews don't help anyone. Obviously, it doesn't help us gentlemen to visit you under the misconception that you provide services which you don't. If a guy is writing a review out of some sort of grudge, which may be the case with Sasha's review, that doesn't help us either. It may hurt the girls business, but it damages us gentlemen as well for the fact that we may not get the opportunity to spend time with a wonderful lady we may have been thinking about because some guy got pissed-off for some reason.
You were right to dispute those reviews, and TER was right to remove them for you.
You are right Riker, false or misguided reviews don't help anyone.
Some newbies don't know the numbering system. Some others have a grudge. Some are too cheap to pay for membership LOL
Any review that's demeaning or slanderous should be reported. Any review known to be false should be removed.
If a lady has 5, 6, 10... reviews, there's a strong chance one bad review wouldn't hurt a provider, but it can harm her attitude and mislead viewers. I've seen reviews removed before that weren't consistent with a lady's past reviews.
It's nice to see review boards keep a good relationship with providers as well as hobbyists. I would guess it's a daunting task.
It doesn't help anyone to favor one position over another, and I have always felt that TER takes the interests of both sides into consideration. Data alone cannot create an accurate picture, because it is not amassed to a single subject. Each girl has a small pool of data, wherein even a little bit of inaccurate data can completely throw off the equation.
So although drollere’s suggestion that we keep all data has merit, in the end, we just can’t keep the stuff that is clearly false, flagged or not.
because it allows a perceived pattern to be introduced by lies. Why do you think false reviews help you? This is all about eliminating a FALSE review. There is an element of he said, she said in every case. The truth is most likely somewhere in-between. I don't advocate ad hoc, as you say, but I do rely on the mechanism of TER, bringing together the mass knowledge of us, to provide quality TRUE information.
Because the provider contacts TER and tells them what decrepancies are there. I had an ex-SO who spent significant time from jail cell with the help of a PI to try to make me look like a real loose cannon, etc. The problem was the PI had never been to my home---an the SO had never been to this location either. Did have some benefit of descriptors from our conversations so they tried to fabricate some reviews. At first two really negative ones which had some accurate info gleemed from previously posted reviews along with definite mis info. Each of those was pulled by staff within an hour of my contact via e-mail stating why the reviews were not real. Than when they couldn't get negatives posted they tried a positive rated review I guess believing I would let that one stand as it was more positive. But again riddled with info that didn't add up and again TER reacted swiftly when contacted about that too and pulled it for me! Your name is one more recent to the discussions---and those of us who have now been here for more than just a moment (me 3 years) know that when TER is approached with a good case based on solid foundational info from either you as a hobbyist or me as a provider they have been very professional in handling both sides of the coin. Thanks TER staff---I love your growing pains makes me feel safer with you than without you.
No benefit of the doubt for a provider with excellent reviews.
Of course it makes total logical sense for a lady who is reviewed with 8's and 9's consistently to suddenly show up with dirty hair and smelling bad for an appointment. Now why didn't I see that myself????
COME ON!!!! This is not a case of YMMV, we didn't click very well... if so it might be more believable! He's saying she was DIRTY...hair greasy and tangled, smelling bad, and bad breath. You really think she'd be dirty for ONE guy and for NO other guy, ever??? That doesn't even make sense. The whole point of reviews is to establish a pattern of consistency, and if her reviews ARE consistent (I haven't seen them, I'm judging from others posts), and show a pattern of high quality service, why does it make sense to leave one that sticks out like a sore thumb and is more than likely false, up there? Just to make her look bad? To spank her for being a provider? Because we are different from you????
Why does this have to be soooooo "us against them"!!! Maybe, just maybe, it makes more sense to work TOGETHER, than AGAINST each other.
Oh, why is it more than likely false? Because she has established a pattern of consistency and quality service as reviewed by the gentlemen of TER. Because she has established a reputation which at this point is probably her bread and butter, and she doesn't want to lose. That's why!
They took the false review down when it was disputed, and yes Sasha has a very good reputation. I think you're correct in saying that often a good record of positive reviews should be evidence enough.
Why let stand the malicious attack of companion by some jerk who has his own misguided personal reason?
You know...I just have to ask...how can anybody be on a board like this and have a problem with a man lying about getting a blow job. Please don't humor me, that's all it was about. How in the world did an investigation of wrongdoing on the part of the President of the United States possibly sink into an investigation of his sex life. Please don't attempt to answer that. Your answer will only confirm that light is faster than sound..someone may have thought you were brilliant until you opened your mouth.
i'm asserting my executive privilege to summarize in a single post. and then find something better to do.
"executive committee" stung some people, apparently. look: i have never deleted a review. but somebody has. i've never been asked to read and assess the veracity of a review. but someone has. replace "executive committee" with "someone" and you have my drift. there is an "inner circle," a "staff," a "reads the inbox and deals with complaints." those folks are deleting reviews without my knowledge.
"reviews must be filtered." this comes down like a pronouncement from mba casework. why, pray, must reviews be filtered? all the measurement principles from the behavioral sciences say exactly the opposite: flag 'em and let 'em sit.
"more cogs, more buttons!" oh puh-leez. i worked with internet engineers for five years, i know the limitations quite well. append a new database field, and use it to switch the document background color of contested reviews from white to pink. six hours of programming, max -- no buttons, no cogs, and no more need to discuss the "truth" of reviews.
riker, the "excellent examples" of bad reviews you refer to include a review that copied language from another source -- exactly the kind of criteria i stated explicitly should be used to delete reviews. but "i don't own cut offs" or "i don't do greek"? those should stand -- because "staff" can't know the "truth" of the matter.
finally, i've been nudged to submit my comments to the suggestion box. well, what happened to the community? isn't this the perfect place to vett current policy or debate a change?
you're in the community, and then you're in the suggestion box. go figger.
ROB claudia, czech imposters, the lovely shauna, database drills, and deleted reviews -- there's a lot of chatter about the quality of ter information. overall, i think it's a great resource. but, pure and simple, deleting reviews that are not *obviously* bogus is a bad idea. it's just flat out a bad idea. it's destroying information. it's biasing information. it's treating some providers (the complainers) one way, and others (those who don't own a laptop) another way. it's treating some reviewers (those who are liars and clever) one way, and others (those who are liars and idiots) another way.
it's bad policy. please stop doing it. just say i said you could.
The message boards are broken up into regions and subject matter in an effort to consolidate material in appropriate locations.
We can suggest all we want on the General Board, but it will never be read as a suggestion, since a suggestions and policies board exsists for that material.
I've liked your suggestions in the past and have, from time to time, copied them to the suggestions board (giving you full credit, of course) I'm sorry, I did that without your knowledge since I'm one of the big, bad inner circle.
The funny thing is that you are much more a part of the inner circle than you seem to be aware.
i don't think about being in or out of any circle or executive committee or whatever.
i'm simply stating that any subgroup within this "community" that tries to judge true and false in a he said/she said situation with no *obvious* corroborating evidence to support one side or the other is just not doing any of us, including the providers, any benefit. it doesn't matter if i'm involved: i wouldn't know the true and false either.
now you've laid a huge guilt trip on me for being in the inner circle and all, now i'll have to hit the bong and fire up lou reed to recover. ROCK AND ROLL!
Was positive... a glowing account, even. A really wonderful review! The gentlemen and I had a really, really hot time together. But he mistakenly wrote something in his review that hadn't happened. How'd I know??? Well I got about 20 emails within two days asking me for that particular service. Now, I am good, ok??? I did make that gentlemen THINK that what he wrote, HAD in fact happened. But I do not actually DO that particular thing, altho I am sometimes able to make someone believe I did. (If you read thru my reviews, you very well may figure out what the heck I'm talking about, as another gentleman mentions it!) I did not want anyone to show up at my door expecting this particular thing, and walk away disappointed in the entire experience, over that one little thing. I did not think it fair to the gents of TER to mislead them by having information that was not accurate and correct in a review about me.
I'm not sure why you think that DOES make sense to do, except for a really negative kind of idea coming thru that seems to say that we'll all turn bad eventually so it's to your benefit to see all those false reviews. (HUH????)
I actually would've been perfectly happy having just that one sentence deleted from the review, but the reviewer himself asked to have it removed... out of respect and courtesy towards me. What a gentlemen!
But what does my opinion matter anyways? I'm a bad, evil provider out to rob you of all your money anyways, right?????
COME ON, please get a grip.. you have to know that we are not all like that, and those of us who are NOT like that, do not deserve to be treated as tho we are. If that has been your only experience in the 'biz, than I am truly sorry for you.
dear nicole ... i don't understand your unhappiness with some of the posts, or why you think seeing the "false reviews" is a slam on your character.
it simply baffles me that people here don't acknowledge how much this "process" of deleting the reviews is like plastic surgery or heavy stage makeup on the "hobbyist" subculture. we have no idea what is being lost by this process.
why is it a *bad* thing to know you corrected a great review because it was inaccurate? isn't that something us guys should know about, so we can love you even more?
why is it a *bad" thing for ter just to say, "you know, we've decided we just don't want to be the referee anymore about 'true' and 'false'"? don't you realize that any clever ROB will happily use the challenge mechanism at ter to disguise her bad service as long as she can?
why is it a *bad* thing for the rest of us to know some guy had posted an inaccurate review? ok, so he thought you did something sexy to him that you didn't do. well, wouldn't the rest of us like to know this guy can't tell where his peter is put?
why not just insert the line "WARNING: CONTESTED REVIEW." at the top of the review, and let it stand? there is no insult or deprecation implied: it's just a fact, and ter should let everything speak for itself.
I once had a man totally make up a review. The review was great as far as the numbers were concerned. There was really nothing negative about the review, however he proved through details that he NEVER saw me. He said that my roommate was leaving through the sliding glass door when he arrived. My incall is a one bedroom where nobody else lives. Even worse, there's no sliding glass door. There's only ONE entrance and exit, the door through which he entered. It gets better. If someone were to leave through a window, they couldn't. The apartment is on the tenth floor of a highrise. The review, more than anything, simply annoyed me. I asked TER to remove it, but they wouldn't. It was no big deal. Life goes on
