it's a lot easier for a provider who sees 6-8 customers in a week to match each one to their review than it is for providers who see 30+ customers a week, on average. Add to that the fact that the majority of Asian agency girls don't read their reviews at all, and you have a safe space if you just wait two weeks to write the review. That's 60-plus sessions ago for the average agency girl. You get it, rocket doesn't, although I didn't read his content. This has worked for me for 13 years.
I know a guy who was dating a Kgirl on the outside and she dumped him because she thought he was CDL. The guy wanted me to go see her again and tell her I'm CDL, but that wasn't going to happen. This shows you how things can be a blur for the high-volume girls when it comes to matching a customer to a review. She saw him two or three times a week, but she still thought he was me when my review came out. BTW, the reason she didn't want to keep him as a boyfriend is because she saw how many reviews I had, and said I saw too many girls for her. How's that for irony? LOL
Why?
because some do that.
Plus writing a review is a pain in the ass if you are going to make it a really valuable one and given the delays in approvals it is getting increasingly likely that it will be rejected.
However, offering advice to the less experienced is helpful and reviews on their own will not keep newbies (or the less critically thinking) from making a bad choice.
Some gents no longer play, for various reasons, but have tons of experience to offer. Some others don't review because many women no longer want them. Then there is the downside of writing reviews for the guys. I am curious as to why you connected the two tough. Interesting topic.
I am sure there are a number of regular posters here who write and give advice using their handle and reviews using their alias —- or reverse the procedure .
For me to be eligible for the top 100 list I need a new review every 3 months. Not everyone writes reviews. I understand why & the alias usage I just thought why not inquire with my TER gentlemen. I thought reviews helped the community.
that at least one of your clients you see within a 3 month period would write a review for you, if you asked them. Do you ask?
My reviews are under my TER handle. I don’t write as many reviews as I used to, but I always do it if the provider asks for a review.
Bia there is a bit of irony here at play.
Your original question is, i think, a good one. But you set yourself up for “advice” from said posters.
There is obviously a lot of sad lonely men that spend far too much time on the boards, turning into a form of social media.
There is little advice and mostly just opinions.
I’m in LA but perhaps one day when you’re in LA we can meet and I’ll write you a review
I think information, wherever it comes from can be of value!
The General Board is a forum for one to
espouse about whatever is relevant, and it has
zero to do with writing reviews.
Clients whom write reviews do not necessarily
participate on forums. E0M
tell you how I see both sides of it. When someone posts advice, but is not showing any reviews, do you take it as fact, or with a grain a salt? This is the dilemma in posting without showing your reviews. On the other hand, I can appreciate the dilemma the poster has if, like me, he sometimes posts something controversial on the discussion boards. Believe it or not, there are providers who will not see TER members who have political or social views contrary to theirs. The way they know that is when you are reviewing with the same username that you are posting with. (I have a workaround for that, but I won't go into here unless someone asks me to.)
There are often guys here using aliases posting advice that is counter to the conventional wisdom on a subject. While I'm open-minded to hear how the P4P biz is changing in some markets, it's difficult for me to accept at face value new ideas or claims when the poster does not show ANY reviews. How do I know his information is accurate if I can't see how experienced he is through his reviews? I would imagine providers have the same problem. In some cases, there are guys who have been here years and years not showing any reviews, but I have found out through PM's that they have tons of experience with providers, and some even convince me without any knowledge of reviews because they will post things that I know to be true from my own experience.
So the bottom line for me is, when a poster is not showing any reviews, and IS NEW to this board, I will take what he has to say with a grain of salt, being cautiously optimistic that he MAY know what he's talking about, but once established with a lot of dialogue on the boards, I will be comfortable accepting what he has to say. With that said, there is a big difference between posting about experiences someone has had, and just stating their opinions based on who knows what? That's what I look for in separating the BS'ers from the real deal. Uncovering fake experiences on the boards are just as easy to spot as fake reviews if you know what to look for.
I'll take the bait. What is your work around for not reviewing with the same name you are posting with?
name that you post with is that it's fairly easy for some providers to figure out who you are, and if you write a review that is less than flattering, she can make future hobbying difficult. I learned this the hard way when I was posting and reviewing with the same name on another site.
If I'm seeing Asian agency girls, who are high-volume, I will mostly review them using my CDL user-name. The majority don't read their reviews, and for the ones that do, I merely wait a couple of weeks before putting up the review. (the risk here is that I occasionally have a review rejected because by the time I have reviewed her, she has left for another city. If I find her working in another city, I can still edit the post and review her there with a good link, but if not, then it sits unapproved in my archive indefinitely.)
I have also used CDL when reviewing both agency and indie providers in other countries, but when I'm seeing indies in the US, I will generally review them using an alias, which I will change from time to time. If I feel a provider has too much personal information about me, I may not review her at all. TER will reset your alias on request once every six months to allow you to choose another alias moniker. Then I NEVER post using my aliases unless I'm about ready to change it. Most indies see no more than two or three customers a day, so it's more likely that they will remember the detailed narrative I write in my reviews and connect me to my name and phone number, but this is not an issue if I use an alias that is ONLY used for reviewing.
Consequently, I can show the majority of my reviews are connected to the same username I post with, which makes it easier for readers to decide if I have the experience to support my information and advice posted on the boards.
If one is "made" by a provider after writing a review with his alias, how does that help ? Wouldnt the provider connect it to his persona/number/pii information?
It just seems to me that issue of being made is important in context of a monger persona and specific review, not the screenname or alias. Ie, if provider gets upset and her panties in a bunch over truthful and deserving negative review, she won't be able to do anything with your screenname, bit she can very well blacklist your real persona.
Unless you're implying you're vetted through TER and don't disclose your real info but then how can an alias be vetted?
I think he is saying that it works with high volume girls because they won't be able to figure out who wrote it among the crowd.

That's not what I asked tho. I get the part you said.
Cdl mentioned he uses aliases with indie providers who are low volume and hence might remember him.
And my question was, how does an alias help in such situation? Hypothetical situation because I know cdl doesn't actually write negative reviews.
If an indie provider can connect his review to his real life persona, she will ban his real life persona. Her not knowing that the alias who wrote this review was cdl, doesn't actually help him in any way.
your conclusion is wrong, too. Indies don't know my real life persona. When I book an indie, I will give her my first name and two provider references from the last 90 days. If she wants more than that, then I move on to the next lady on my list. You are assuming something can happen that won't, so you still don't get it.
It's disingenuous to say I don't write negative reviews. I have some under CDL and I have some under aliases. You know my scoring system, so unless you have selective amnesia it should be easy for you to sort out the below average reviews on my review history. I'm happy to provide links to the CDL reviews that were below average sessions if you persist in claiming I "don't write negative reviews." It's true that I don't write as many negative reviews as you do, but that's because I'm better at research and vetting the girls I'm going to see. I have said my disappointment rate has always been less than 5%, and you said yours was much higher, 20% or higher if I remember correctly. You have a lower threshold for acceptable looks as well, so that will often lead to more negative reviews.
These are your words:
"The problem with using the same . . .
name that you post with is that it's fairly easy for some providers to figure out who you are, and if you write a review that is less than flattering, she can make future hobbying difficult".
I'll ask you one more time, how does an alias help here? If you claim you don't use any pii info with indies, then how exactly can a provider make life difficult for you? She gonna open up white pages, look up coeur-de-lion? You yourself have claimed you don't use your screen name to book girls.
Coeur-de-lion is the same in this context as any other alias. It's just a name on an online board. (Unless, of course, you do use it to book indies - which you claim you didn't)
That is my question.
where I reviewed for 4 years before reviewing here that low-volume providers can usually figure out who the reviewer is if the review is thorough, as mine tend to be. CDL is not the same as any other alias because it is the name I post under, and because I tend to be frank and oftentimes controversial in my posts, I learned that there are providers who will not see me if they know I'm CDL. You will likely have the same problem for the same reason if you post detailed indie reviews under your username. Not all providers are gracious about respecting the POV of the reviewer if it differs from their own perception of themselves as has been demonstrated countless times by providers attacking reviewers here whether it was deserved or not. You can't blame them for wanted to protect their brand. Since you don't really see indies and have been here a relatively short time, perhaps you should see some, tell them your handle, review them, and see how they react to your reviews.
Since I don't give out personal info for screening, I depend on the providers I have seen to serve as references and I don't want them to give me a bad reference if 1) they didn't agree with my review, or 2) they don't like what CDL says on the boards, but on the other hand, I want to write an honest review, so that's where the alias comes in. If this doesn't make it clear, ask somebody else.
There are many here who have had similar experiences as me who post under their TER username but review under aliases. Others do it the opposite way, they post under an alias and write their reviews under their username. I find this latter way dangerous because, as you have seen, many who post with aliases accidentally out themselves because your account defaults back to your username every time you log in, and you must be diligent about always making sure you are posting with an alias. Since I post more than I review, I prefer to have the posting on my default name. Less chance for me to screw it up like others have. Lol
OK thank you for the response. I think what I was missing is that providers if they know who you are on the board will also tell other providers that, and since you only go by refs and not screening that info can carryover. This only execerbates if you use your screen name to book (even tho you claim you don't do it).
Yeah this is one of the reasons I've pretty much gone all Korean BBQ for a while. Nothing beats anonymous mongering. And of course kgirls service to price ration is excellent value and probably the best value.
But I don’t write as many new reviews as I used to. Reason being is that I’m regular with a handful of ladies and repeat far more than I take a new one for a spin. I’ll re-review every so often, but probably only see 3-5 new ladies a year, but play at the very least every other week. I imagine I’m not the only one.
... do so.. That's their prerogative.
Gambler never posted a single review but probably fucked 100s of women (per yr.....LOL)... I guess the trouble of writing a review would have ate into his "fucking" time..
Why do you need to write reviews? Why the pressure.. I never understood it.. Still don't. Who gives a fuck !!!
There is a large section of providers who are anti-review. When I first started I did write reviews. But now if I see someone I'll only write a review if they request it. None have. I would make exception for really poor performance, since obviously the wouldn't want a review for that. But I've never really had a bad experience. Most of the providers I see already have reviews so mine would be redundant in most cases anyhow.
You notice that when there is a good post and good follow up discussions that a few "certain" TER posters vanish?
I am convinced that in another life, they were pooches with "trigger words".....I can literally see some of them foaming at the mouth right now. Or is it that they cannot go through one day without mentioning their dislike of a particular someone/politician?
I figure that at the very least, all TER mongers would post at least ONE review a year. If not, why are they here?
Besides getting their "fix" of bashing others? One review = alias function given
No reviews at all? no alias allowed (or pay to use the site)
Aren't you bashing others by claiming they're bashing others???
was your "trigger" word? (Sorry, you walked into that one. Lol)
LOL.... "trigger" words
Their very existence.....
LOL
I have two goofy friends like that. I'll say, "the sky is really blue today!"
They would say, "well, no..it is actually an aqua marine shade with gray" WTH?
They would never start a substantive conversation, rather choosing to interject their words of wisdom to show how smart they are.
Some exist just to piss people off each day. Those nits that drive 55 mph in the left lane with a huge backup behind them, or those that drive to the very end before cutting over hard when a lane ends. (the zipper method doesn't work folks. It ONLY does if everyone does it and can maintain a slow speed so that no one has to jam their brakes, which is impossible)
An ex-coworker who was a big producer was annoying as heck. He would do exactly as I mentioned above or trigger others. At a XMAS party one year, he did it once too many times to a new guy. He got his big snoze punched in the face because he didn't know when to shut his trap. To see a grown guy cry and whine like a baby..and all his production in the world didn't mean squat was priceless.
So, in other words, a few here just haven't met the person who wouldn't think twice about popping one in their yap because they didn't know when to shut their mouths.
I have not posted reviews for years. the only time i will is a cash and dash or other dangers and that will likely be on another site where all you need is one sentence or a comment. when I was a newbie I thought doing a lot of reviews would serve as a reference, nobody cared. also when i asked providers if they mind if i posted a review, all said no or I wish you would not. keep in mind there are fake reviews, the worst site is r--m--s and that goes both ways. maybe its just luck but I dont get turn down much except now and then they wont do outcall to my hotel. no deposits for me ever.
I won't write reviews for ladies who are in my top ATF or high demand already. It's selfish, but I'd rather see them 2-3 times a week versus none or only once.
