I have recently noticed several providers with so-called strict no-review policies who have allowed reviews on sites other than TER.
I understand that TER's policy is to respect no review policies of the providers, but isn't this a bit much? Do you believe a companion should be able to hide behind a no review policy for TER, and yet accept (or encourage?) reviews on another review site?Is you concern TER's policy or that some providers might be boycotting TER reviews but fine with other review sites?
Is TER's policy overly generous to the point where providers are using it to boycott TER in favor of other review sites?

You don't have to see providers who feel they need to control review content.
If she was gorgeous and had a strong social media presence so I knew she wasn't a rob, I might not hold such a policy against her, but it's a red flag for mongers who insist on a specific menu.
if the provider if dictating the content? My understanding is that telling a reviewer what he can or cannot write subjects her to banishment.
Fully agreed here. Review is a monger lane. Providers should stay out of it as long as it's a truthful review.
To be clear, I wasn't referring to a potential TER review. That other site that can't be mentioned here by name seems to only have glowing reviews, hence my assertion that the reviews are content controlled. To your point, I agree, they're of little value.
I've only recently started using TER like crazy to look up providers I see advertised on various sites. I thought I was doing something wrong when I ran across so many who have no reviews. This thread clears that up: The girl or agency has quelled TER into a position sacrificing customers by giving total deference to the provider. Wow. I thought this was for us as the primary beneficiaries. After all, we are the providers benefactors. (word play)
At least it's not like another notoriously skewed review site where you learn nothing useful except what the provider will not do. But this is eye-opening to find out that I can't even get a mention on TER for some of the women I'm interested in seeing because THEY have decided we can't share our experiences we had with them. Even doctors haven't been able to achieve that kind of one-sided, black hole, obsequiousness from review sites despite there professional associations' deep pockets and expensive lobbyists. Frustrating!
I should ad that I've checked other pay review sites and some effectively have the same policy, but achieve it by only allowing reviews for girls who advertise with them. A sort of, if you want our reach, you have to let our other paying customers talk about you.

having not perused the Newbie FAQ board and TER Instruction manual. While not clearly stated I have generally taken TER to be much more of an industry association forum than a pure monger review site. Why would they have a provider only board, as well as a reviewer only board if TER's focus was purely from the monger perspective.
I don't think it is possible to find a purely objective and honest review board but I do agree that TER is pretty good at producing an "average" review (that is, after considering a number of recent reviews and doing some evaluation of the reviewer as well) that give a pretty accurate assessment of the provider.
I might be a minority here but I have never used TER's ads to find a provider I want to see. I would agree that if the lady is posting ads on TER (or even posting on the Photo board) then having a No Review policy should be an issue. I've not actually looked a that issue but do wonder just how big an issue that might be. Do you have a specific provider example that you could provide -- one that is posting ads but has not profile on TER and a no review policy listed on her ad site?
If I understood you, you think my post demonstrates a willful ignorance on my part. Au contraire! I was skeptical of TER so read everything official regarding rules and policies that I saw. Maybe poor reading comprehension, but I did due diligence. Also, I said I thought it was "for us as the primary beneficiaries." Primary, not only. That said:
It feels lopsided, wrongly biased. Open and honest should be ranked above faithful and subservient to either party. I'd like to know what they'd do if they got a provider who decided their reviews good:bad ratio required too many zeros *before* the first number that they want to disappear from TER. What then? We don't get to know they're a ripoff? "Divine discontent" comes to mind.
Maybe I spoke too soon, that with more thought I will see wisdom in the policy. I like the "industry association" analogy. But for now, the policy feels wrong, wrong, wrong. We pay them, we fuck them, we review them (fairly!). I don't get it as of this moment.
I was just trying to schedule a provider in NYC. She told me she has a no review policy. $600 an hour, but daty was an extra $200. Wtf? Also , at $600 an hour, shouldn't two pops be a no brainier? Many providers now only allowing one
$600 has to be 2 pops with BBBJ yet I have read some reviews of CBJ for the same price with the hobbyist content with that. ARE YOU CRAZY ?
