When did the independent review section become a place for managers to advertise their ladies?

I don't see that happening...gives folks a chance to rebuttal a review...there is more good to come of it than bad. Originally Posted by NYr

How can anyone other than the provider and the client have any knowledge of that particular session?

Why should random “folks” have the right to rebuttal a review that does not have anything to do with them? We the providers don’t even have the right to comment on our own reviews but trolls and random fucktards can? I think a lot of the drama could be avoided if the comments were disabled.

Just don't allow any comments on reviews and everyone has to go to co-ed or allow everyone the ability to comment.

I'm someone with nothing but positive reviews and positive comments on my reviews.. and I'm still of the mind that there is no purpose to being able to comment on the reviews other than either give each other attaboy slaps on the back, white knight brigades, or jumping on the trash bandwagon. Half or more of the comments on any given review are generally from people who have never seen the lady in question. But people round here just love their drama.

However, I think what NYr really meant to say is that it isn't going anywhere because this is a mans board. And that's fine. It is what it is and I learned to play within that parameter years ago. Originally Posted by Grace Preston

As much as reviews becoming ads for their favorite providers, it seems many of the reviews have become self promoting ads for the hobbyist skills! Things like " I stretched her so tight", " I tapped her out" " Brie through the balloon" " she almost took it all" etc and movies and posed pics and reminders that this is review #1969.
I enjoy the hobby and have for several decades now and have found the best providers and best connections are with the ladies who aren't all about the publicity many of them have real world jobs and therefore brains and drive. While this is a contract for services I do respect them and ask for the same. I realize I am not built to be in movies but when doing sessions it seems we always find a way to make it enjoyable for both. Many have been more than willing to see me again and have without drama.
I realize this site is for exchange of information and that is awesome. I just prefer relevant information about the provider, how she looks, reacts, enjoys and what's in the hunt. Quite honestly, when I see a review on her from some guy who is on review number 3 for the day I figure she is high volume and probably worn out and all about churn and burn
May be need a hobbyist advertising section where the guys can promote their skills, bang on their chest and try to convince the ladies that something 6" long is a foot.
Love the sure, love the reads, and just speaking my mind, which has no relevance to anyone but me. LOL

Ad or otherwise it's all good intel. Real session pics vs. Poorly done selfies with bad angles, how TCB works ( this tells me they aren't just ads because the TCB described is some times horrific), full menu of allowed activities. She may take it in the assignment but prior to review, no one mentioned it.

I usually don't have that kind of time. So there is my explanation as to why I care.

Why do you do it? Is it just an ego thing, or do you get some special service/price break, etc.? I hope it's the latter, because at some level I can respect a guy that works the system.

Exactly. Another form of pimping plain and simple. I wish it was just the reviewers egos being fed but seen this before, taking advantage of girls by their posting popularity.

You’ve crossed a line of showing you know nothing about this place hoss.

Interesting, there are some universal truths with regard to this board and all message boards/forums.

1) What/who can respond to review threads. In theory, having providers comment on reviews might seem good, but will lead to an endless thread. You will end up with the same problem as those Abe's reviews, where the bumps keep old reviews at the top.

2) L.A said, "How can anyone other than the provider and the client have any knowledge of that particular session?"

This is true, but a strawman argument. I think there can be certain statements within a review that can be rebutted (or rebuttled if you prefer), e.g. physical description, without being there for the specific session.

3) The last universal forum truth is that the longer the thread goes, the more the original value diminishes.

I appreciate all the contributions of the regular posters. I can't keep up with who is at odds with whom. I appreciate Abe's reviews, but I do find the constant bumps counterproductive.

Bottom line is nothing is going is likely to change. People will find ways to manipulate posting rules. Arguments will be made to stop them via some new rule. Counter arguments will be made as to the downside of the new rule. If all the bad shit that happens on the board gets to be too much, then people leave and the value of the board decreases until it leads to change or board death.

thanks for reading my reviews.. i'm touched!
