Why when a hobbyist sees a provider and writes a negative review is it suddenly thanks for your honest review?
Why when someone who happens to sincerely believe a certain provider is his ATF is he her white knight?
I understand that every provider is not everyone's cup of tea, but that doesn't make her a bad provider does it?
Why is the hobbyist judged as right? Can't it be the provider could be right?
I ask these questions because I read a lot of drama created for many good providers that is basically subjective opinions, not the norm for said provider, I see providers being criticized in the men's lounge that may or may not be justified. I see hobbyist being labeled for giving their opinion good or bad about a provider.
I see comments that's why ECCIE is so great because it allows a hobbyist to make an informed judgment when a negative review is written!
I for one think anyone trying to make a judgment on the reviews has to make it on the following:
Activities, Rate, and was she on time maybe.
Everything else is subject to ones opinion, perception, or satisfaction, non of which is reliable.
To the providers I would say this and I know it is hard for you to believe but:
- First be bigger than the guy writing a negative review if you know you attempted to deliver satisfaction for him and move on.
- Getting into a he said, she said is a very difficult situation for you to win, unless you have proof which is almost impossible.
- Always attempt to deliver but understand there are many assholes on this Earth and move on.
To the hobbyist I would say this:
1. Remember that you were not there so stay out of the drama.
2. If you have never seen said provider stay out of it
3. If you have seen the provider was unhappy and it has been over 6 months and the majority of reviews are positive look in the mirror to see why you were not happy. GET OVER IT.
4. If you only want negative reviews then quit writing positive ones because if you do, you are obviously, lying, embellishing or working some other agenda. You could not have enjoyed your time because someone else didn't and that person is eminently more intelligent on the art of being satisfied than you are.
It is my opinion that this is not the intention of the great majority of the providers or hobbyist of this board.
I welcome your comments both hobbyist & providers, I certainly not claiming to be intelligent just trying to understand!!!!!!
