Just browsing around, I saw this review

http://www.theeroticreview.com/reviews/showReview.asp?Review=987050

then looked at the pictures and was instantly interested

then I read the review and saw this in the review

"But truth be told, her pictures on the website are not her. My guess is that Classydc enrolled Halle just before this trip and selected the closest Stock photos they could find.."

WTF? ... so why is it that others did not put it in their reviews? So could it be that the first two review writers are basically shill writers for this agency?

So why do agencies do this? It is bad for business and also why do the review writers lie, it is bad for the board!

Hmm... Geojohn and rbyb shill writers??..I must have more power than I give myself credit for. THIS IS BS...SHOW YOURSELF, no need for aliases, im right here

and I would say you got a few 'guys' who like to be the first write ups for your girls, geojohn is certainly one of them!

but forget about that, answer the question Mr. Gerald, pictures are FAKE or Not?

I look forward to your quick and accurate response!

a guy writes a review and someone else comments on it and then the agency sees it and then the shit starts.

well, that is two more banned guys from that agency.  

everyone see what is happening?  say anything negative about this agency and the agency attacks the guy and most likely bans him.  

Because of this there will be little incentive by others to write less than favorable reviews for the girls of this agency - unless you want to risk being blacklisted by the agency.

So much for truly useful reviews.

And, of course, I am using an alias.

I can see why the first two reviewers may have chosen to stay silent on the whole "she don't look like the pics attitude".  Either the session went really well and they got there moneys worth. OR they want to continue seeing the constant stream of new talent that this and the bother agency continues to bring to this area. Maybe they are old and half blind like me and did not notice.  All the girls I have seen from this agency so far have matched the pics, even if they were sometimes airbrushed (to hide tatoos that would give away there identity).

I would like to see an explanation as to why they are fake pics though, if they are. I am not rich enough to TOFTT.

Please do your homework first. There are plenty of negative reviews about us along with plenty of positive reviews, that's what an agency is made off, DIFFERENT ladies.

They wont ALL be successful, they are not "wind up dolls", we do our best to explain our expectations, some times we get lucky sometimes we fail.

TER works just fine, but if you have a better idea, please let us know.

the original poster of this thread posted as an alias so he might be safe from the agency blacklist.  But the poster of that review will likely be banned from that agency.

Maybe TER needs to to "ban" agencies from joining in on the TER discussion boards with the exception of their advertising posts.  Though that may not save anyone from getting blacklisted by said agency but at least we may get a more constructive discussion of ideas.  Then again, it probably won't work since someone will mention the agency blacklisting the participants of the "negative" discussion - thus probably killing the open discussion anyway.

Not sure how to fix this mess.  We have agencies that "supposedly" alter pics or "supposedly" post fake pics.  These same agencies participate on this TER discussion board.  Because the agencies are here with us then there is less and/or guarded discussion/commentary regarding these same agencies and their advertising practices (specifically the pictures).  The threat of being blacklisted and thus out of the game for seeing what may be a legit girl from same agencies keeps most everyone at bay.  

I assume most (frequent) visitors to this board have seen this and already know it is happening.  I venture to guess that some have simply stopped participating in the discussion and also stopped writing reviews just to stay clear of this mess.  This is unfortunate as it is hurting the very people that this board was supposed to serve.  

But maybe I am wrong about that too - maybe this board is simply in existence to serve to serve the owners of TER - profits.  If that is the case then this is merely heading the direction of eros where it will become less and less reliable and eventually kill itself.

The amount of posts on this board is very high at this time.  The number of users is very high.  This problem seems to revolve around a few select agencies here in DC.  Will TER do something about it?  Will the participants just keep marching on as if it is not happening?  Will these agencies go too far and kill themselves off?  who knows?

I am suggesting that the reviews and discussions are guarded and less than truthful because of the possible banning by the agencies.  

I am also suggesting that there is also LESS reviews and LESS discussion because of the possible banning by the agencies.

"THIS IS BS...SHOW YOURSELF, no need for aliases, im right here"

I find this response from Gerald threatening and aggressive.

or is it too obvious of an answer?

"another exaample of a situation where the girl submitted photos and they [agency] never met her in person to verify"

No excuse for that.

You where probably the one who was caught stalking Maegan on last visit. I see no other reason for this rubbish. The lady in question went to a professional, did her make up and took photos. simple. Its called model photo shoots. I have met her, that is definitely her and she is hot.

She saw the same people for 3 straight days for goodness sake.

You hide behind aliases but you book with us. Do you think I have seen eye to eye with every reviewer. beefeater just explained to you that he is not shilling or using us right now. I never told him to respond or NOT use us. We are all grown ups here, well maybe not all of us

I guess Mr. Luckydick is lying then?  But then I tell myself, lets look at who has written reviews

Mr. Luckydick - who seems to be your normal hobbiest, here and there doing his thing and writing about it

and

Mr. Geojohn with maybe 100 reviews? and most of the recent ones were 'new' girls, some of which were your girls? and also he seems to be willing to be TOFTT from also PrimeDC and EliteGF agency as he is always one of the first writers and ALWAYS writes good reviews..

and

Mr. RBYB , who also have a great many reviews, and it seems that 7 out of his last 10 reviews were for one of your 'newer' girls

so out of the three reviews there seems to be ONLY one that is not really into your agency and he wrote she was good but not the girl in the pictures...

so please don't take us all as stupid, be a man of your word and say the truth. Say.. listen guys, she is not her, but she does well in the bed or something

Classy, Prime and Elite are the major players in the DC market.

We all know by now they use the same person to photoshop their pictures.

This should no longer be a surprise to anyone who reads the discussion boards.

You take the good with the bad.

Do your homework!

No alias here, I have to say I've seen ladies who look nothing like the pictures, but as it's been said sooo many times, no one made you go in, you can leave as soon as you determine the lady isn't who you expected, then call the agency and say so.. look she was 30 lbs heavier, I'd like to use you again, but I respectfully decline on this meeting.  I'd hope that since the agency's know the pics aren't 100% they would be willing to do a bit of give take, I mean after 2 stike outs with an agency I would probably just stop checking them out if they can't provide realistic pictures and descriptions.   So again:
Agencies/Indies:  the more accurate the pic, the less we have to complain about, I understand glamour shot etc, but other than airbrushing the tattos etc.  leave stretch marks/wrinkles, etc.. because it'll just piss us off when we see it in person.
Guys: the first couple minutes of meeting you need to use the big head... and decide to stay or go, after that your review should be based on the performance... (still dock points for inaccurate pics, but don't cry about it if you stayed!)

Well it seems he did Answer  "I have met her, that is definitely her and she is hot. "    it boils down to who you believe..

I do find it odd that you are doing a fake pick alert for a provider you have not seen. You read someone's review and then write a post off of that? There are tons of reviews with comments of fake pics, bad service, rip off, etc. Do you post on all of them you read? Why not let the review stand for itself? Just curious as to your motivation for writing a post on a girl you have not seen, but read a reviw of.

So don't come on here and try to pretend that you are treated like the rest of us.

That's why we hide

Why are people worried about being banned from an agency for their reviews or posts on the board?  You should never, ever give your TER handle to an agency or a provider. Always maintain your anonymity here.

Well, I've given my handle to agencies and indies alike, and what difference has it made? None that I can tell. And for the original writer, what makes you so sure she is fake if you wer "just browsing around". Did you see her yourself?  Not that I'm vouching that classy or prime are perfect, but I've seen many from both, and have had a mediocre performance only twice, while all the rest were either very good or excellent, IMO. The one thing you can count on with them is NEVER getting ripped off, so that should give you some peace-of-mind. Not that you need it of course, hiding behind a fake name.

Prime DC's pic of Hannah isn't all that accurate either but so what?  The reviews are dead-on accurate and she is off the charts good. Way beyond good, in fact.  Bottom line is that with any of these agencies if things aren't what you had anticipated or were not as delivered, let them know.  Give them the chance to make things right and, as I've found, they will.  We are spoiled and fortunate to have such a target rich environment and stable agencies with stellar talent, I think.

I can't believe how much time and effort has been spent trash-talking in this thread.

I think if you look at a good sample of reviews for Classy DC ladies the market has spoken - they're a pretty professional agency with consistently well performing ladies. That's the bottom line.

I've used CDC for years, and I would agree with the prior post that while the pics are frequently glammed up to the hilt, they actually ARE the lady you're seeing. Having seen the lady in question, I would attest this is a case in point, and probably led to the review that triggered this controversy in the first point. For the record, I would classify her as "delivers the expected goods, but not into it enough for my preference." YMMV, no harm - no foul; I generally only write reviews on girls that really rock my world or are stunningly disingenuous.

I would also say that Gerald is a no-BS guy, who doesn't deserve being on the receiving end of this. He's not perfect and the agency stumbles sometime, but overall he has served our community really well for years and he seems to deal straight with the providers. If you don't click with the agency or its girls, move on. No need to rant or throw down a bunch of e-smack on this board.

No shill here - I maintain anonymity between my personal life, my relationship with providers AND my TER presence. Just another hobbyist and TER lurker that doesn't like seeing a smear campaign go down (or an adolescent shout-fest).

it's truth telling.  Modifying the photos to fool potential and existing  clients is BS.  Total BS.

No other way to describe it.

complain more than a little and they will ban you so fucking fast your head will spin.

"look at a good sample of reviews" -- DuPontGent, you miss a big point here.  The sample is biased because the agencies ban guys that give less than stellar reviews.  

the agency knows your TER name and they know who saw their girl and who is writing a mini review.  the agency even badgers the clients into giving high scores on minis and reviews.

wake up people. get in the real world.

....I stopped participating on the boards.

Someone else said exactly what I would have said and that you read one review and because it is the opposite of what every other reviewer said, it's the gospel truth? Really?

The boards are to share this hobby and yes occasionally point others on notice of potential, fakes, scams and BS. If your not going to hobby nicely then beat it.

Posts like this are why I only check the boards for minis and ads. everything in between is a waste.
