Thread: Profiles that block reviews, should it really be allowed?

  1. Default Profiles that block reviews, should it really be allowed?

    This has probably been mentioned time and again in the past.

    But you know how it is, times are changing, and maybe a little adaptation is in order?

    I mention it based on two (not direct, thankfully) experiences or rather, observations in the very recent past (which was more than enough to consolidate this opinion).

    Profiles that are unlikely to allow reviews are mostly apparent in and of themselves, often times based on the appearance of the advertiser alone.

    I saw one such profile a couple weeks ago, verified pics, reviews allowed but none given at that point and, listen, I'm not prejudiced, but I'm very familiar with the type of girl that was advertising.

    From a popular escorting culture hailing from eastern Europe and I just thought, "Godspeed to the poor sucker that ends up having to leave her first review".
    And sure enough it came, the unsuspecting good faith advocate clearly put too much hope into the possibility it could be good.......... but the inevitable happened.
    Basically she tore him to shreds, as evidently reflected in the review. Juiced him for extras, nothing delivered, out in 10 minutes etc etc, we know the deal.

    Next day, reviews switched off.

    I just called another such girl recently, basically same prototype appearance. Knew exactly what to expect but damn, you know how a dude gets horny and that long list of favorites is too tempting to resist.

    Ended up hanging up on her mid sentence but we know the routine. It's just matter of time until some poor horny bloke puts a little too much faith in the possibility and, as above.

    .......

    The fact is, the priority of such advertisers is to NEVER give a good service to ANY client naive enough to enter their premises, whom they all consider by default to be a lowlife (we get the irony) and easy target.

    Yet with a flick of the switch, reviews off, they can basically mask that fact and continue to extort their way around the country, one week at a time.

    It's the cold, hard, unpleasant truth.

    You know it. I know it.

    The seagulls outside crapping on my balcony know it.

    It's not like numbers are low at the moment either. It's a thriving business in this country currently.

    Could those numbers drop off a little if some advertisers were obliged to reveal the genuine nature of the "service" they provide?
    Possibly.
    But I'm just saying, it's kind of stomach turning that this feature unwittingly facilitates their degenerative little racket.

    Thoughts? Should reviews on all profiles be mandatory?

    I don't see why reviews should be mandatory. There's loads of warnings about keeping away from girls who don't allow reviews so if a person wants to meet them and get badly burnt, let them visit

    I've used different services three times; two of whom allowed reviews and one who didn't. Guess which one gave the bad service‽

    What could I have said if the review was allowed? Fake nationality, didn't mention charges for extras, I specifically asked for 90min, but she told me time would be up with 40min to go; she started the clock from when I said I'd roughly arrive.

    Lesson learnt. But a lesson to escorts should be that it has turned me off using for ages and I've no urge to return soon.

    Surely it is yourself who should take the lesson here, don't visit escorts that don't allow reviews. There is no need to allow one bad experience put you off.
    There is an abundance of great escorts that allow reviews, there is no reason to ever have a bad meeting with an escort.

    I don't see the logic, soz. It's not limiting your options as is. My logic is - if it's easier to escort, more people escort. That's options. Filter them as you wish.

    If someone's not happy working with reviews, why limit them for their (potential) client base who's happy to take a punt, and why limit their (potential) client base from having them as an option?

    It wouldn't happen, but would you rather see (and be able to filter) - 100 escorts with half on/half off, OR 40 escorts all on.

    Options.

    You think it would force a situation of 60 all on?

    Maybe. But why be a prick? You could just let people make their own decisions and punt if they like, and let ladies who rather work privately stay working privately.

    People abuse systems all of the time, it doesn't mean that you should do away with the systems for the people who don't abuse them.

    I seen a lady who opts out a few times, meetings were great. She told me that she didn't allow reviews because she didn't like anyone commenting on what happened, good comments too. To each their own, she wasn't comfortable with it so she kept them off.

    But saying that I only went to see her on recommendation from others. Usually I will not go to a provider that opts out, too many horror stories. The above lady was a rare exception to the rule only because she was recommended. There are so many fantastic providers that allow reviews that you shouldn't feel the need to take a chance

    I think this is the most sensible attitude to take. General rule should be to avoid but there may be the odd exception. Just don’t go making a habit of looking for that unicorn.

    I literally wrote "lesson learnt", meaning, to myself. And it remains that way. The only reason I took a chance was her criteria were spot-on.
