I could just imagine one of my former maths lecturers using a formula like that. But it wouldn't be for me. I rather use biological methods

It could happen to any of us.

This would be an open invitation to blackmail. It would be really easy to lower an escort's score. Just write a review from a new account and wait. Counting negative reviews x5 has a similar effect. I think fake negative reviews are less common than fake positive reviews, but they have a much larger effect.
Fortunately most of the people who write fake reviews aren't very good at it, so they are not too hard to spot, if you actually read the reviews.

“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.
Two points, the penalty for a single review would only be after 3months. Secondly, if the other reviewers had a total of say 40 reviews between them, then the quotient would be thus
40 - (1x5) =7
5
I fully accept that there are many flaws in the assessment. For escorts with very few reviews, it may be useless. In any event it is only meant as an aid.
Sorry, this will be done in next few days, I've been distracted working on something else which is also a blow to fake reviewers, though unforunately I can't say what it is yet and may not be able to for a while.
Such is my life that I have a genuine good excuse why I was distracted, but I can't say it, so most of you think I was probably just busy shoe shopping!
Like De Beers, I like to use science to help me find the diamonds in the rough
Seriously though, I would have no intention to do the actual maths. The point is that an escort with some bad reviews and a lot of one-off reviews will stand out if the number of reviews are indicated after the reviewers name.
Yes but science has also come up with ways to make fake diamonds thats my point, nothing is foolproof and although stats and graphs have a place and a use they fall short when you factor in the nature of what is being purchased and how one mans diamond is another mans lump of coal.
In a sense the review system is an invitation to blackmail. I do not see that the mathematical assessment of the reviews would affect the number of fake reviews. I would expect that the assessment would throw up more escorts who would be good candidates for Whitenight's detective work.
I agree that this is a good idea, but it won't really tell you very much except for the escorts who have a lot of reviews. In fact, nearly all escorts have lots of reviews from people with few reviews. And some fake reviewers have written many reviews. So having reviews from people with few reviews isn't necessarily bad and having reviews from people with many reviews isn't necessarily good. You need a lot of reviews before you can see a pattern in the numbers.
I'm not opposed to your idea of listing numbers of reviews after names. I think it's a good idea, but I think we should all have a realistic idea of how much information you can expect to get from a review without actually reading it.
