Why has this review been allowed??

[MrFussy]

I just mean that the fewer genuine reviews posted in order to make a valid protest that the pool of trustworthy reviews in among the dross get more and more diluted.

The problems need to be addressed, i.e. fake / bogus / fantasy reviews, photo verification. The dross is now the norm, action is required and I don't see why I should comply with the current system, which is not even being enforced....let it dilute further, then perhaps something will change...I hope it does change soon.

No one asking you to comply, only have your say on the Escorts you saw and let people who may have faith in your reviews see them. A field of wheat always has its weeds.

Comply as in appearing to agree with the system...even wheat fields need thorough harvesting...otherwise the weeds takes over...

Thats what I am saying, honest reviews are the wheat, you are saying that instead of allowing others to reap what you had sown you will instead plow your reviews into the soil before being harvested by those who might go on your recommendations.

I am saying that yes weed control is needed, however what type? there are only two ways to control the weeds in reviews.

Organic... IE the way things are and we muddle along picking out the odd one we get IP info for an never really getting anywhere.

or

We nuke reviews with every spray known to man and delete anything with a whiff of being fake even when that is just a vague hunch.

That requires forum to get on board and agree to that or else we will be accused of being to heavy handed.

For instance there are lots of reviews being placed lately by profiles that have all joined up on same day, none have any other link, nothing but same date of joining.

So

What do we do?

Delete all of them including a few real ones that might be among them?

This girl is a lovely lady. I don't know what happened between the two people.... however, I have met her twice and I have found her to be lovely.

I think that it is important to remember that revews are based on chemistry as much as anything else and maybe the two pwoplw involved did not have that chemistry. In any event, this story as with so many more has been blown out of all proportion. He didn't like her, she responded and now we are all giving our two cents worth.

I am a reader rather than a writer of reviews and am aware that I will be roasted because of that. I can take it..... If I had something to add, I would do so. Some people are better at reviewing than others, in the same way that some mods are better at some aspects of moderating than others..

Does this make sense to everyone? or even, anyone?
