At first I kept going TO the site trying and was well, a bit baffled about what exactly is so funny.

But finally, the brain kicked in......and I was rolling tears down my face laughing. Oh that is a great list!

that's so true!  That really is a dog of a site.   It's not designed well, doesn't have that much useful info, not many reviews, and they've been subpoenaed since their servers are in the US.

In TBD's defense, they do at least have one thing going for them. Only paid members can write reviews. Hence, they DO have fewer reviews, but don't have even a fraction of the number of fake reviews that ummmm, other sites, have.

...not to mention, there is still an incentive to write false reviews on TBD to earn gold member points and access other features (or just look like a "Big Dog" by having your username appear in yellowish letters when you post!
 Your argument does not support that TER has a higher PERCENTAGE of fakes what-so-ever!
But at least on TER something is actively Being done to control fraud!

Besides... the majority of their member-base is made up of providers and hobbiests that were kick out of here for review fraud! So why do you think they suddenly "got honest" when they logged in over there?

It's very complimentary; however, it is a strange compilation of copy-and-pasted portions of other reviews of me. And, it states that my hair is brown (it's blonde) and my eyes are brown (they're blue).

When I wrote to TBD, letting them know about it, they replied that they do not remove reviews--that whatever the reviewer states is his opinion and stand.

Why would that make me a liar??

In case you hadn't noticed, I'm here at the TER website, where I actively participate in the discussion boards and chat room. Rather odd behavior if I didn't like TER, wouldn't you say? Go do a search of TBD's discussion boards and see how often I post messages there. I think the last time I did was a month or so ago.

PS. Unless you frequently wear Insane Clown Posse t-shirts with a frilly little tutu and swimming flippers, you aren't my worst nightmare. But if you do, like that fashion sense you got goin on there!

I've noticed that you always seem to be in fights with people and contrary to your own opinion, there is some self-hatred going on IMHO.

Should I have not responded to being called a liar? My original post simply made the point that since the other site only allows paid members to post reviews, it cuts down on fake reviews being submitted just to get VIP access, which is certainly true. However, I got a few messages indicating that since reviews are never screened or removed, that fake reviews posted by women themselves are a problem. So its six one way, half a dozen another. How that made me a liar, I don't understand.

In the first half of my response, I pointed out the logical inconsistencies in his assumption (ie I spend an awful lot of time at a website I apparently don't like). The second half was me being facetious. I don't get where either part comes across as self-hatred to you, but to each their own.
