Reviews? Verification.

JohnMacnab's Avatar
When a review is written is it actually verified by a moderator? Are the providers contacted to confirm that the review is accurate? If the session involves two or more providers can one of providers confirm that the others were infact there?
Interesting question. I can see some issues with it. One, not all providers are verified providers of ECCIE. Two, even if they are, the person writing the review may not put this in the review. How would this even be administered?

That's why no single review should be taken as "proof" of anything--one should always look for trends and consistency.

True Old-T, I would not want to be the one that had that job because it would be a he said she said deal with no way to actually verify who's telling the truth.
luckily most guys give accurate accounts. Its the rare "disgruntled" gentleman that causes need for further research from what Ive seen. Fortunately most eccie guys are gentleman and don't pull that kind of stuff.... Well at least in Ar they don't

I was wondering this because sometimes a review is pending ok by a mod for only a few minutes before it is approved and sometimes it is not given the ok until the next day.

We don't contact the lady or the guy to verify particular reviews unless there is some dispute, question or reason to do so. We ARE looking for good contact info, date of session, that the fields are filled out and some good detail of ROS.

Here is a good thread on proper review writing

Been an age old debate here since the site started. It ain't gonna happen, that is what ownership here has dictated.
That's okay ladies. That's why we have our own private section to get the ROS on clients, good or bad :P

I do have to laugh a tiny bit though because having seen some reviews...some men tend to exaggerate. So long as they got most of it right and don't lead anyone to think my menu is different than what it is, I don't contest it since I figure that's part of the fun for them



I did have a girlfriend who had to have a review pulled on another site because I don't know what that guy was smoking, but he made her out to be a crazy PSE even though she was a very sensual, mild GFE. His opinion on the matter: "Well you'll get more business this way."

Yeah-- and then more crappy reviews from people thinking she's a bait and switch *eye roll*

Also, if there is a double with two or more providers involved the review is usually assigned to the first listed provider. It is never listed to both. There is not option to do that. WE can only assign it once.
