reviews to offer a valid perspective.

Similarly, posting under an alias does not preclude the validity of one's opinions.

Most importantly, we're on equal footing with respect to reviews, since your alias has 0 reviews listed as well.

Oh I see, you have no freakin reviews that is the disconnect. lmfao

Write reviews to get some street cred, then bitch about others, newbie.
i disagree that you dont have to post reviews to have a valid perspective.  sitting back and reading the reviews that others post and being critical of them when you've never written one yourself is an empty gesture.  Sure, you can read and interpret for yourself certain trends, but to publicly criticize someone else's reviews but not have anything of your own out there is something you need to just drop.  Guess what, these reviews are subjective and it is harder than it looks to try to bring some objectivity to them for the readers.  I've just read too much b.s. and drama lately.  Yes, you can pay for VIP and be a member, but go write a few before you get publicly critical of other men and what they put out there for the community's use.  I've never received any benefit from anything you posted, but I do appreciate reviews, and I've posted my own for others to read and responded when hobbyists contacted me to back channel about a particular lady I'd met.

Have many other guys noticed this lately.  I have.

Guys/ladies...thoughts/comments.

WTF are you talking about?

confused as to the OP post myself LOL.

Provider's performance scores are dropping for him and he wants to know if this is a trend.

that's where I got confused.

For Megan, the OP gave her a 7-7 but wrote "A DEFINITE REPEAT!" and "A great time. I will definitely be back to visit Megan again".

I thought his comments were a little disconnected from the scores he gave her.

But that's just me.

A cursory look at his reviews tells me that he is a fair grader.

on his part but I believe there's a disconnect between his scores and his comments.

same problem (from the provider's side) when I started.

I had valid views and shared them. Being chronologically more mature than most of the ladies here and having been in the sales profession for years before this, I understood the game plans. Many of the providers, however, blew me off as a no-nothing (and became verbally abusive, which shocked the hell out of me then) because I didn't have any reviews. I still don't have but the two (elsewhere), but I've proved consistently on these boards that I usually know what I'm talking about.

Of course, I goof occasionally and need to perform foot extraction surgery.

Keep coming here, Omega. Another succinct POV is welcome.

I also look forward to discussing viewpoints with you and others.

For some reason, the TER forum members are inclined to dismiss those without reviews (provider and hobbyist alike) as easily as they are to dismiss those who post under an alias.

At the end of the day, an offered viewpoint is simply that, regardless of who it comes from. In the end, we must all separate the wheat from the chaff.

"know-nothing" instead of "no-nothing" but the latter works in a bizarre way, too.

You expressed yourself just fine.

The last thing I would ever want to be is a spelling or grammar Nazi on a public forum LOL.

For me, the expression of ideas far outweighs the accuracy of spelling and grammar.

someone for taking the time to write a review. In fact, I applaud him for doing so.

I merely observed that there's a disconnect between his written exclamations and the numerical score that he gave the provider.

As for your assertion that one needs to post reviews first before one can offer a valid perspective, I don't agree in this case. One needn't drive a car off a cliff beforehand to know that it's inadvisable to do so.

Surely, you are capable of writing complete sentences in a way that conveys your thoughts more clearly.

guys to check out the reviews, and when you do, they suck.  Makes me wonder what the flock they are thinking.  My thought is they don't think you will look and will assume they are good ones, since she told you to look.

Something that pisses me off, is when they say they are well-reviewed, but don't post a link to the reviews.  So how the fork are you spsd to read them.  They are prob thinking, again, you will believe them.

I have not noticed an increase in girls tellin us to look at their reviews, at least not in my area.

those providers in question erroneously think that clients won't bother to check out their reviews when they are pre-emptively prompted to do so.

between BP and TER.

I see that your translation of the OP was different then mine, lol.

Hiding behind an alias to make a flame comment isn't very gentlemanly nor appreciated.  I wouldn't do it to others.

You should be honored that I made the alias just for you. Besides, my comments were complimentary. Did you even read them?

Some people need thicker skin around here. Take a deep breath.

Why bother mentioning "well-reviewed" if you're not willing to post where.  Guess their handlers are the ones who give them verbal reviews.

Most guys who use BP as their main source of finding ladies, don't check the reviews. They see that a lady has said, "highly reviewed", or "check out my reviews on TER" and just say, "OK, she's good", and never even check... I see this all the time. Some ladies only have 1 TER review & claim "highly reviewed on TER", others have 10, but they all suck, some don't have any at all... they count on the fact that the majority of guys will never check. Why? Because they don't want to pay the $30 VIP to read the reviews... I have a direct link on my website to my TER reviews & still have guys all the time asking me what services I provide.. when I direct them to TER, most say they are not paid members & cannot read them.

Back when you could at least see the numbers on a ladies reviews w/out being VIP, it helped scammers like these, because at least then, guys could see if she had consistent 4s & 5s, or if she was getting 7s & up... when this system was used, the ladies didn't use this guise in their ads.

I was being a little to flippant.

My comment was said jokingly, as if from a provider's perspective.

I have noticed lately that some ladies have posted ads on BP suggesting that people reading the ad look at their reviews on TER.  However, looking at the reviews, they are subpar.

Hence the headline for my post at the top of this thread - Look at my reviews, oops I shouldn't have said that because they are bad, never mind.

Your joke is pretty funny.

I wanted to let people know that this really happens, regardless of your intention.  But, they do not really tell us to not look at their reviews as an afterthought.

that joke.

I just wish I had been insightful enough to pick up on it when first reading it LOL.
