You can see where the hits are coming from....if you post it as a rule, and a verified provider posts the link in her ad anyways, you can give her a warning...then a second time can cause her to loose her status....third time she could loose her reviews? Or have them locked temporarily?
Anyways....something for you to chew on.

You consider the reviews a belonging to the provider, when most hobbyist consider them as belonging to the writer. Not to say I have a problem with a provider having a NRP. But I don't think someone else's misbehavior should have my review removed.
Though maybe things are hotter now than in the past as far as LE is concerned, but I found ASPD from a link from BP. I'm sure there are productive members of the board who found out about this board the same way.
Next of course you have to consider that any coincidental or casual benefit a review may be for a provider, or any of the same that causes harm, reviews were originally and for the most part are still for the benefit of the hobbyist. Period. I'm not trying to be an ass, but that is true.
I am not sure if ECCIE has the NRP available for a provider that doesn't advertise on the board like there was for ASPD but that is an option available if they do.
Bottom line is with reviews there are risks and rewards. You have to determine for your risk tolerance if having public reviews worth whatever risk you determine. You also have to do the same thing for membership on the board.
