The Human Element Sweetie.................
Sweetie,cant you see that regardless of what system you come up with for reviews,you are going to get abuse because you are dealing with human beings,of which some,will abuse the system for whatever reason.
The only way to satisfactorily deal with the review system is to punish its abusers.
Suspend anyone that abuses it for a probationary period.This applies to punters,escorts,kinkies,deaf people etc etc.You get my drift.
All of your suggestions are a bandaid approach.You are treating the symptoms not the cause.
Of course this is difficult when you wont abide by all of the rules yourself.
Take it easy,
West.
agreeing with westie (strange but true)
i think you hit the nail on the head westie .no matter what .pat comes up with it wont suit every one .....the biggest problem is sanctions. why not suspend an escort who has a fake review in her favour ,once it is proven definately to be fake. i know it a loss of revenue but a at least it might straighten out review system.
what happens a reviewer who submits a fake review ?????.
there is alot of feedback for pat to think about......but unless u put some rules on the reviewers(eg certain amount of post before reviewing)
i know pat has an issue with fact that this will exclude reviewers who do not post in the forum but surely if their review is questioned they will have the balls to back it in up the forum.
nbt
What your saying makes sense but is not reality...........

Patricia, I don't mean telling you what to do, but if you come across a review which you know in your heart it's a dubious review, you have the right to delete it, and when doing so you are sending the message to the escort and/or punter that there is no chance for messing with this website. Sometimes it's only a handful of people messing but if not dealt with same way then they gain control over your business, and you don't want that. It's you who controls and commands this service, not the software or any other system which are there only to help you to control and command the business. If you delete fake reviews they will get the message. Don't forget faking reviews putts off users of this website, which in turns undermines the autenticity delivered by this website. No messers allowed.
the reality of the matter is that women (escorts in this case) dont like sexually explicit stuff written about them.
Also, the one thing that practically every escort would hate is to be painted as some cheap slapper.Some of these reviews paint that picture.
What your saying is right but a dentist or whatever doesnt get offended or lowered by explicit stuff,escorts do.
On eway to find out.
Going straight to the point,
Westside.
To get attention of course...............why else.

The reason i made a new thread of of it is simple or at least should be.Without some way of controlling those that abuse the review system ,the problem will never go away regardless of the type of system in place.
A simple example is democracy.In theory democarcy works excellently.In theory.Throw in the human element and the bubble bursts.Its like politicians being corrupt while the cost of living increases,like the catholic church speaking against sex outside marraige while some of its own members abuse young children and get away lightly.Its the same with the review system here or the agencies that advertise under indeps,the false reviews put up by escorts to damage their competition,like the reviews put up by the escorts duo partner or the escort herself claiming services like OWO recieved when they are not.I could go on and on.
Its the human element is the problem and unless that is dealt with (the only way to deal with it is by punishment),the problem will never go away regardless of the system in place.Of course you have to have a happy medium (an eg is Jake the dickhead getting me to type fuck off as **** ***,so its not as offensive.
Straight forward enough really,
Westside.
