There has been some discussion here of ratings fairness and inflation.  A monger who I respect once told me that some reviewers give inflated ratings in exchange for discounts or bareback upgrades.  I have never asked for or been offered that, although a few providers have asked me to write reviews to help their business.    

For me performance ratings come down to this.  At the $$$ price point BBBJCIM is standard.  Almost all providers allow multiple positions, DATO, DATY and will give PM.  If all this is done, with a modicum of abandon and affection, I give a performance rating of 8.  

If a provider allows FITO, COF, snowballing or Greek, or does rimming, and is otherwise good I would give her 9.  (I have done so 5 times in 38 reviews.)  If she does all those things I would give her a 10 (and probably marry her).  Just my personal preferences, we all have them.  

On this board the definition of a performance rating of 10 is “once in a lifetime.”  Reviewers who have given a number of 10s are not following that definition.

Dead on.

I basically stopped reviewing after I was asked to give a 10/10 by my last review. I PM'd a couple of people who reviewed her as such and asked the question how they could do it, even though she barely ticked the boxes necessary to receive the grade. I mean just because a provider does such things, she doesn't automatically receive the grade. she has to earn it.  
There's been two or maybe three providers out of the 100 or so ive seen who can lay claim to the 10 for performance. And when someone gives that 10 out to a burn-and-turn girl as well as to a sleek, sexy, sensual OMFG experience, you can't trust them, or the system.

I've never been offered the discount. Just asked afterwards with no expectation of a discount on return.

there is not only one girl on the planet who will do all of those things that give you a 10, so your concept of a 10 is still flawed.

also, you are doing it to your rating standard, not ters standard, so it wouldnt work.

you can always make your own site and your own rules.

the rating system is totally flawed, but its also been beaten to death over the years.  

personally i think the 1-10 should reflect if she does all services that she mentions and if they are up to par

(seeing as not everyone wants some of the things that you listed)

and a 1-10 on looks should be does she look like her photos ...

(seeing as beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder. kevin james is my 10 while brad pitt is another ladies 10.)

but, then i am flawed.. i could always go make my own website.

interpretation of 'once in a lifetime' for a 10.  If you strictly follow that interpretation you would never give a 10, because what do you do if a subsequent experience is better?  Under the strictest interpretation, one would have to give out 9's at best, & then on his deathbed or when retiring from the hobby, go over all his experiences & pick out the best & go back & raise it to a 10.  
My standard for a 10 (and I've given out several) is that the lady did all of the services TER requires for a 10, did them enthusiastically, not reluctantly, clearly put my enjoyment ahead of all other considerations, and I cannot think of anything more or different she/we could have done to improve the experience, and I would eagerly come back for more.  If that standard is met, I have no problem giving a 10.  Your interpretation of 'once in a lifetime' is the singular best experience, I prefer something like 'As wonderful a time as I have ever had & can't think of anything that could have been better!'  
I also understand that reviews influence a lady's prospects for new business, and try to be sensitive to that.  If a new (to me) provider gives a credible performance but we just don't click, I usually just don't review that session & move on, rather than post a lower-than-average review just because we didn't happen to connect, through no fault of hers.

The performance ratings should have been abolished a long time ago. Or better yet, never established in the first place. When you have service categories of Escort, Massage, and S&M, it makes no sense to gear a rating system towards any one category and then apply it to them all. Yet the rating system is clearly geared towards escorts. And done so in a way that if I have the best massage or S&M session ever, I might have to limit my rating based NOT on my experience, but what the lady offers. In other words, I can never give a massage only provider or S&M only provider a 10, even if I have the best experience possible for those categories. The same would apply to seeing an escort that doesn't offer the things required to get her a score over 7, even if I wasn't seeking those things. If that's not nutty enough, if she offers anal and is cool with more than one guy, now I can give her a 9 even though I didn't partake in anal and I only saw her solo. At which point the review is no longer based on my experience because I didn't do those things! WTF? For these reasons I will never write a review unless asked. I don't agree with a system that rewards or restricts someone based on their offerings, comfort level and very personal decisions they have made when they decided to come here. This system is not respectful of a woman's limits and choices.

Regardless of that, you've got boxes that tell you if photos are accurate. And even more boxes that tell you what activities are generally available. Is that not enough? Your score wouldn't be my score, and mine wouldn't be yours or his or hers. Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder. We can do away with all those unnecessary numbers and everybody will be just fine without them.

Did you mislead people?  You said you received COF and gave her a 8/9, yet subsequent clients went off of those reviews and didn't receive it.  Whose fault is that?  Recent reviews are 7/7 and 7/6 even and complain about previous reviewers grade inflation.

I think hers is a good example of being overrated in general and research would show that.

Bottom line, is you have to do research and spend some money to find out which 'reviewers'  have similar tastes and the use of back channel.

No system is perfect, but this is the best system out there IMHO.

Lol, she's the one that begged me for the 9/9. Didn't even notice that the OP was in her reviews. She definitely wasn't low volume while she was here. Also her "kisses with tongue" was her literally pumping her tongue in and out of my mouth like a frog catching flies. And her BBBJ was highly unspectacular. Like I said, she ticked the boxes to be eligible for a 9, but certainly didn't earn it on performance.

As a result of the Top 100 and the way some girls manipulate reviewers.  That said, I have found a few ways to make the numerical ratings somewhat useful anyway.
1) Find a handful of reliable and consistent reviewers and use their scores to guide you.
2) Back channel.  Develop a network of guys you trust and check with them using PMs or emails.
Finally, as to the whole issue of 10s being "Once in a lifetime" and therefore you should only give one, I call bullshit.  TER never intended that and their use of language is unfortunate, so I refuse to adhere to only giving out one 10.  To me, 10 means more like "It doesn't get any better than this."  If you meet the top standard of excellence, in my book you get a 10. Of course, in performance there are also specific guidelines to getting that high a score.

She was asking her clients for high scores, well above her service and looks IMHO.

She's a great example of the OPs point of being overrated.  

I didn't date her for that reason.  Price point was above what you could get elsewhere for better service/looks and for less $$.

So one guy checks off a box in his review next to COF and when others after him don't receive the same treatment, that's a problem? And you want to know whose fault it is?? Guys are idiots! That's whose fault it is. This is where you get when you put too much stock in a demeaning rating system. Guys lose sight of the fact that every time they meet someone new, they should approach it with the understanding that YMMV always applies. They see a bunch of boxes checked off in a review and assume that as long as they can cover the dance ticket that they are entitled to everything on the menu. They might as well ditch the girlfriend experience term. Seems more like they're looking for an assembly line experience to me.  

Was someone mislead by the OP? I don't know the answer to that. Are there a lot of guys here with unrealistic expectations of the women they see? Without a doubt! Does the rating system contribute to that? Without a doubt!

Except not familiar with the acronym "FITO"...Urban Dictionary says "Farter in the Office" but I have a feeling that's not what you meant..

OP is stuck on bringing the "system" up and over rating girls.  I would argue there are people also under rating or vindictive.  Who knows why a guy gives bad reviews.  If a guy gives consistently bad reviews, then I figure there is something wrong with him.  

I give more credence to a guy who generally gives good reviews, with a few bad ones with good reasons.  The providers with all 10/10 scores, I'm dubious at best.  

As noted above YMMV, and the rating system is just guidelines.  YMMV

Without TER and P411, it would really suck.  I think we forget what it used to be like without these tools.

I assume that everyone who has given out tens doesn't have kids, never got married, and never accomplished anything better than putting it in a hookers ass?

Just playing around with the logic of that...

For the record, this is one of the main reasons that I stopped encouraging reviews. I worked HARD for mine. I dug deep and developed connections that weren't there, I was kind to people who didn't deserve it, and I showed up with my game face on every. Single. Day.  In case someone wrote one. I looked people in the eye and said "please at least be honest, because I never want anyone to come and not get what they were looking for" because *I* would feel bad about ripping someone off and I wanted my reputation to be earned enough to say things like this (yes, I've been reading this board since before I started. I was prepared for a number of things.). Almost all were with agency clients who are notoriously difficult and I STILL went out of my way to constantly improve. There was a time when *gasp* this kind of thing seemed like it might really be important. Like I HAD to do a good job to be considered "good".... And yet a few loud individuals have said "oh she does BB/negotiates/OTC/gargles battery acid if she has good scores" and complained about each other's dicks enough that it's not even worth it to deal with the clientele that needs to know how many times a stranger allegedly  got me off anymore. People that get bent out of shape about this stuff don't have fun because they don't want to, not because there is a problem with the way eeeeeveryone else writes their reviews.  

Look at your own post, OP. At the end of the day, you wouldn't even be hard to get a 10 from! Trust me when I say, meeting your "once in a lifetime" requirements doesn't take a ton of skill, just a bit of willingness to play an easy game. I *know* when I have given a man a once in a lifetime experience, and rarely does it come down to meeting a checklist. And when it does? It's nothing listed on TER and it's nothing as simple and lazy as bareback, that's for sure. Those guys have an imagination!

As a provider, I don't want to witness all this nit picking amongst boys over who is objectifying me correctly. If you had a good time, come back. If you didn't, let me know how I can fix it. Like adults. Don't bicker with each other over how you should enjoy this HOBBY more or less than you have been. It is probably the least sexy thing one can do, which is saying something, considering the number of schweddy balls I've encountered here, specifically. Take the reviews as what they are - proof she at least somewhat knows what she's doing and probably isn't going to murder you (I kid!). Then if you like her, show up and PARTICIPATE! Find that happy medium between laying there and expecting things to happen and following a script she didn't get to see. I totally understand why you want to see reviews and I totally support you guys being able to give each other a heads up for the good and the bad. But, it's not hard to have fun with one of us. Just do it already

One of you guys needs to update urban dictionary before you get a terrible surprise! 😂

not to worry Charlie, most of us look at the numbers as a guide, we then read the reviews to see how the reviewer values things, and then "pull the trigger".  I rate performance on the overall awesomeness of the experience without regard to letters.  I have been blessed with many awesome times.

thought it meant a tongue in the o  ,,, ooh, baby

The system is imperfect, but I work with it. Some of the OP's plus-points mean nothing to me--would help me not at all with deciding on an appointment. If we at least have a sense of what the points mean, it communicates something.

To me, the biggest flaw is a point for anal. I've met many who "offer" it, but then "you're too big." Scam.

I wrote a review. Said in general details that, though I couldn't give a 10 on ter scales, she was a 10 experience.  It was held up because I mentioned points in the general discussion so had to omit. *BUT* they told me that since she advertised on her site that she offered anal, that I could give her a 10.

The provider offered anal, at like $500 extra, and told me that she did not enjoy it. But because that offer was on her site, I was allowed to give a point value based on an irrelevancy.  

So, ter, you're the go-to place now. Keep looking over your shoulder.

What is so hard about a guy writing an honest review and scoring based on how good of time he had?  

Too many ladies right now don't truly enjoy the hobby, which is fine, but offering up acronyms for the going rate then suggesting they get a "10" for discount or freebies or BBFS is dishonest. For those that skew the system this way, you only hurt this business for everyone involved. And for those that don't write honest reviews or just don't write reviews, you have no dog in the fight so hush. Not being able to trust the system, that is supposed to help you guys, has now made spending $$$ to see an awesome girl a TOFFT experience. Have fun with that!
