First Bad Review! What do you do?

BB,
Don't sweat the review, one somewhat negative review doesn't affect much. I think that he must not have spent any time at all looking at your showcase photos, and probably assumed that your avatar photo was you.

Thank you all for your input. I do agree that pic.s must reflect the person, and information should be correct. The last thing I want is for someone to be dissapointed. I have always been forthcoming with that information. The only issue with photos every month is that it is expensive to have a photoshoot done once every quarter, let alone every month. Honestly, I don't own a scale. I did post something in the co ed section about gaining 8 or 9 lbs. A few weeks back so I'm not trying to deceive anyone. I just need to update my stats. I have been proactive about the weight gain and lost 5 lbs this past week. I will be updating my pictures soon. Until then I will only use the most recent pic.s taken in feb. 2010. The only thing I will say that bothers me is that said hobbyist seemed to have a great time. I wish he would have said he was dissapointed and not gone thru a 2hr session. He made several very nice comments and said he would send me a copy of the review, his choice. There was an issue with some graphic pictures taken that I really didn't feel comfortable about and I should have put my foot down. I think he was very irritated that I would not give permission to post the pictures. All seemed well until then. His perception was true and accurate to him. Shit happens. I do thank him for an honest review so I can step up my game. The only thing I beg to differ is that I am plain. I know I am far from plain in the looks department. Thank you for the constructive critisism, everyone.

BB,

you handled yourself well. i don't think you really needed to start a thread about this IMO. NO one is perfect. There is bound to be a "negative" review about every provider out there but very very few will post it.

Just be accurate. Photoshoot?? come on now...... just take some pics with a digital camera. i am not the only guy out there who likes to look at "real" pics. meaning taken on the fly. i recall sensual sophia and others have taken pics that were done with an Iphone, etc and were good quality and fun in nature.

besides when a hobbyist sees a gal, it will be the "real" version not the photoshoot version

I agree with 6.... a "photoshoot" is not what most of us, ok, a photoshoot is not what I am looking for

I prefer just some casual shots with a decent digital camera mixed in with some cell phone shots. Professional shots throw up red flags for me, and I think that they all are photoshoped.

I am not looking for a glamour shot, just a true representation of what you currently look like... after all, most of us are paying for looks.

Also, a scale is twenty bucks.

A lot of women bounce back and forth in a 10# 4-week cycle, you know? Pics of both ends of the spectrum might be a good idea.

Many years ago a review of me said "smoke noticeable" & it hurt my feelings....
You showed concern, not anger that he was not happy with your meeting & that says a lot for your character.

Oh hell, lol! Damned if you do damned if you don't. I've heard guys gripe about cell phone pictures being used. That is not necessarily true at all about the professional pic.s being altered. Sure, some do it, but a pro shoot means good lighting, nice back drop, interesting images. Okay, some I phone pic.s coming up soon. It will be a few days. I have no more comments. Now, I'm on my way to see a regular and get my jollies off! Have a wonderful day ladies and gents!

BB,
I was just suggesting that you mix it up a little bit... yes, professional shoots are expensive.. that is why I was suggesting the cell phone and digital camera shots. You can add new "lesser" quality shots whenever you want to keep things current and interesting at very little expense to you, then just add the more expensive shots when you choose to.

LF

i volunteer to take them.....

they could be up as early as tonight.....

I admire the words you used to start this thread, BB.

One bad review isn't nothing - I just act like it's water off of a fish (WTF, does that even make sense):

The girls I work for at my agency have never had a negative review anywhere until the last few weeks. Two less-than-postive reviews appeared on this site for appointments which according to my records could never have happened because the girls were either out of town or not even working with me on the dates provided. As well, there was recently a positive review which similarly could not have happened because the girl was not working that day.

The first time this happened I complained to the only moderator here I know, LAP, and even asked him to consider deleting the review because it was established that the girl in question was not even on my site anymore...she hadn't worked with me for weeks, and not on the date of the alleged appointment. His response was that "reviews are subjective."
Subjective? What's subjective about a date? I think the date is a rather objective part of any review.

The answer is, as difficult as it is to overlook or ignore false, negative or contrived commentary here there is no alternative to doing just that. We have no choice here but to suck it up and move on, even when we're treated unfairly, especially when we are treated so.

I know it's easy for me to say that given that I'm not the one actually providing the services. I'm only the middle-man. My experience with escorts is that they're egos are extremely involved in what they do, and any criticism of their appearance, age, or service level is taken very personally. So I understand that it's not easy to overlook or ignore a hurtful commentary.

Another thing I've learned through hard experience in dealing with unfair attacks on these boards is that with a little time it all goes away. Negative posts and threads just dissappear over time, so it doesn't pay to get too involved in something hurtful which appears at the moment.

It's for that reason that I never respond anymore to suggestions or insinuations or criticisms directed at myself. Because in a little time it will dissappear and things will be back to normal, but if you are baited into over-reacting it can result in situations which can be used permenantly against you. Don't make the mistake of over-reacting, even if you are convinced you are in the right. Much of what goes on here is going to just be unfair. Just be glad it isn't all unfair and the glass will be half full for you.
