I would say that 185 reviews going for 200+ DOES constitute AGREEMENT, jeopcon! I haven't even broken double digits yet, but then I have only been a TER member for about six months, now. Needless to say, I have had MANY sessions with MANY providers before that, but under TER criteria, they could NOT be reviewed because of the "90 day rule". FTMP, I would NOT have wanted to try to post such reviews, because the experience would not be "fresh enough" in my mind. I always want my reviews to be VERY "fresh". So, although I disagree with several of TER's review rules, I DO agree with the "90 day rule", WHOLEHEARTEDLY.
Don't worry though, gang. I DO have three or four reviews in the que, on DIFFERENT providers. The way I review and write up, a typical review takes about 3.5 hrs. for me to produce, minimum. I just don't want to "short change" the reader, ESPECIALLY if that provider didn't short change me (or even if she DID, for that matter)... Being short changed is something that is not likely to happen to me, because I use TER for its intended purpose, i.e. to see ONLY the BEST providers in the area. With an occasional exception, I usually find that I am in FULL agreement with the "prevailing opinion"... Hence, you will RARELY find one of my reviews that gives a provider less than a SIX, because I am doing my BEST to go to see only providers that are 7+ based upon the reviews... Do I EVER TOFTT? Sure! Sometimes, for whatever reason, I will go to see a provider that has NOT been reviewed. However, I NEVER go to see a provider who has prevailingly poor or mediocre reviews. Especially for what is charged, why should I (or anyone ELSE for that matter)?? Also, I wait to spend whatever it costs (within reason, my top limit is about $3.5 C's) to see a VERY good provider. So, e.g., I wouldn't drop just $1.5 C, because these days, you just don't find anything decent, at that fee. Oh yes, regarding my QUE, well my terminal often doesn't get enough PRIVACY to produce even ONE review in a speedy fashion, muchless CLEAR THE QUE... Hence, the backup. Oh well... Thank goodness we get 90 days, anyway.
Bloom off the ROSE?? Yea, I've sure experienced that, jeopcon. Try to get out of that slump, or you'll NEVER break 200!! LOL I hope I'll be in shape to still be doin' this stuff when I'm 70.. Retire willingly? NEVER!!! I agree with ya', though. More and more, I'm tending to limit the NUMBER of DIFFERENT gals I see (and I rarely review the same gal more than once unless a lot of time has transpired or something has changed such as handle or venue). Other than scientific curiosity LI, why should I drop a whole lot of bucks on anyone other than my top five's?? There are still about a dozen or so high tier providers who I have NOT seen yet, though. I guess you cannot do EVERYTHING (or every ONE, for that matter LOL).
