3) ALWAYS list the name of the provider in the TITLE!
4) Your review will be read to help other hobbyist determine if they want to see this provider. Tell your story, good, bad or indifferent.
5) "QUACKING" reviews is against the rules. Don't make fun of newbies and if you have something shitty to say keep it to your self!
6) ALWAYS use "PRIVATE QUOTES" when discussing ROS information!
7) If you need help ALWAYS send a PM to a MOD. They are here to help you. Well... all but one.

Questions? Yes! Who the hell is that hot chick in your example? I need to see her like about 10 minutes ago

Okay, the topic of reviews came up elsewhere when it came to researching potential providers. One of our esteemed hobbyists feels that a girl with all "Yes" recommendations and great reviews has a ton of WKs and is probably not worth seeing, or he should be skeptical. I kinda get his point. This got me to thinking. Each of us has our own way of writing a review and giving recommendations. For me, unless something goes horribly wrong, I'll give a "yes" recommendation based on the the fact the provider did what she was paid to do. It might not have floated my boat, but some other guy's boat could be floated. Where I really make my recommendation is in the actual ROS. I will say what I liked or didn't like. Let the reader read between the lines. For example, I see a BBW who has a reputation for certain good services. I will give her a "yes" recommendation b/c I know some guys are more interested in quality of service than body type. At the same time, I will make it clear on why I saw her and that she is clearly not my preferred type. With this in mind, I think the review section on her should either eliminate the "Recommendation" part of the "form". Either that, or offer some other possible responses besides "yes" or "no". I think we should have options like "maybe" or "it depends" or "see the ROS". I think most people just cruise right to the "recommendation" reply on the review and think she is okay when in fact, she might not be okay for that particular hobbyist. Thoughts?

So let me get this straight.... a fellow hobbyist refuses to contribute or has NOT contributed for whatever reason is getting screwed over by SL? ECCIE doesn't require long turn commitments? Why not buy PA until you post your own reviews. Seems like a good idea to me. I’m certainly an advocate for helping newbies, but they also need to help themselves.

Gentlemen;

I have yet to write a review for two reasons. (I usually see 1 of 4 regulars weekly for a multi hr)

(1) most of my actions are mostly not news worthy (on my part) and see no reason to add to a long list of good reviews. I do bump the few I have seem.

(2) I am not ready to subject myself to the flying BS if someone takes issue with what I feel is MY opinion .

Just kidding, SL.

But I also recall from when I was a newbie that it is possible to make very good decisions despite not having ROS access if you look at a girl's track record rather than just a single review, and carefully read the comments in the review threads regardless of what the recommendations say. At least, I made a couple of good decisions that way before I wrote my first review. Of course, having that level of information does whet the appetite for more, which is the reward for writing reviews.

We aren't really interested in your actions, we are interested in hers. But this is what I meant by my comment above: tagging on to someone else's review can still add useful information for those who read past the recommendation.

But that’s why I post pictures so hobbyist can judge for themselves! Let's remember you can take my review to Star Bucks and get a large coffee with room for cream for only $2.16 plus tip.

On some of the ladies recommendation I joined TER with different Handle
I like it and don't get the POP UPS I get from showcase reviews I get here

Yes, I know that can be done, but still it is a pain in the ass to edit. Also, some don't know it can be down. Maybe instead of pull down options, Leave a field like the ROS so the reviewer can put in comments. You can limit the number of characters to something like 20-25 in order to prevent ROS type info getting into the Recommendation.
