I've said this before, but I will say it again. Reviews should not be deleted. Where there is evidence that a review is fake, it should be ratted. That's what rats are for.

“All right,” said the Cat; and this time it vanished quite slowly, beginning with the end of the tail, and ending with the grin, which remained some time after the rest of it had gone.

but if 3 are ratted and he is banned,,, surely the other two should be ratted also?Originally Posted by El Gordo
If he was banned for submitting fake reviews then presumably all of his reviews should be ratted. It's a reasonable guess, but so far we haven't actually been told why he was banned.
I haven't looked at any of those reviews, so I don't have an opinion yet. But if they are judged to be fake then ratting rather than deleting is the correct way of dealing with them.

Well, if thats the case when reviews after beeen ratted shouldnt be removed, how come the user name steerpike been banned and both his review removed after an investigation that tuck place and come out to be a fake reviewer... He aslo had a review for erika to which i cant get the number to attached....
How come the rules are not rules for every fake reviewer?
PS..This is only one example of a user name I saw the threat over, but are many others that been banned after they the reviews came out as fake and the reviews removed..

I never said reviews aren't removed. I said they shouldn't be removed. I've been complaining about this practice for a long time. Here are some of the reasons why I think this is a bad idea:
- Often these people come back with a new name. How can we recognise them if we no longer have the old reviews to compare to the new ones?
- Sometimes review text is copied, but then the original review is deleted. I've seen this more than once. It's much harder to spot this if the original review is gone.
- Mods make mistakes. Sometimes reviews are ratted which shouldn't be. This is much less likely to be noticed and corrected if the review is deleted rather than just ratted.
- We are adults. We should be given the facts and allowed to make our own judgments. It's helpful to have the mods' opinions in the form of a rat, but it's no substitute for making up our own minds.
That's why I think reviews should almost never be deleted. Consistency would be good, but I would prefer E-I consistently doing the right thing to consistently doing the wrong thing.

We don't delete ratted reviews for the reasons El Gordo has pointed out.
At least all his reviews should be ratted,,,with three fakes,,,no confirmation other two are genuine surely they all should be ratted??

The reviews that are regarded as suspicious have been ratted. I think it's time you let this go now, fella.

May I ask one question please.
I am aware if a member has three reviews ratted that the member is banned.
Why is it the remaining reviews are not ratted?
Is it the case they are only ratted where they do not cause the innocent escort any harm?
This banned member has had 60% of his reviews ratted, it seems his remaining reviews are dubious to say the least.
If it is the case they aren't ratted to protect the innocent escorts reputation, then I would understand and accept it.
Not trying to make any point here, just a question.
