The Erotic Review bullshit reviews

[Marie Montreal]

Hey ladies and gentlemen, I got that today by PM on TER:


Hi Taylor (I am Lou so I guess it's a copy paste and he/she forgot to change the name):

I noticed that you don't have a ton of reviews. I’ve helped other girls promote their accounts through reviews which can help to market your services and establish more credibility on the site. I wanted to reach out to see if you would like me to create a few for your account. My services do come with a reasonable fee attached but I would be willing to work with you if interested.
Please reconnect with me if this is something that you think you would be interested in.
Thanks.

Lou,

TER has a review history function and you can, if you are a reader with a half brain (I think I have at least 3/4) use it and immediately determine patterns in the reviews posted under any handle. There are some handles only posting reviews of certain Asian spas, you see something like that and then move on. I study review histories very carefully on that board before buying anything anyone is trying to sell me on TER by way of review. The board is somewhat useful if used in this fashion. There is BS, yes, but it's the filtering mechanism of it that is important. You either learn to navigate through BS, or you drown in it. Same is true on almost any internet review board.

I am happy for you that you have at least 3/4 of a brain but it is not the case for all. Plus, not everyone is experienced and has the time you have to study patterns of escort's reviewers. I am posting this for the women and the clients who are not so familiar with the industry. Hope it serves some.

Lol i always was curious to see reviews on TER but never could. I would have to pay a completely unreasonable ammount or from what i saw i could make reviews but it seem to be highly detailed on this website? I dunno... never got to really make an account.

Well at least we got merb/terb etc

But shill reviews have been around forever, not surprised one bit. Usually you would see the guy ask for a discount or a free session, but asking for money directly is a first for me.

It's not so hard and I am not sure if you are familiar with the function. It's different than MERB. On TER you punch the handle and the complete review history of that handle pops right up. If I see a very long history I am immediately suspicious. If I see 5 reviews all of which are on the same spa I stop reading. It's very easy to spot the patterns because of the way TER is organized. This is a board that has been around for a long time and therefore have figured out safeguards which most long time users are familiar with. That being said, yeah, there is a lot of BS there that needs to be sifted through.

But the same thing happens on YELP and any review-based internet board. Some kid was exposed on Yelp for getting like $5 for posting BS reviews on shithole restaurants. It happens on all internet review based boards. The question is what tools exist for user to filter out the bullshit. TER has user friendly filters. Like I said only half a brain is needed to use them and I think most paid members figure it out.

I have gotten some good info on TER, but I do spend some time using it and figuring it out and how to apply the filters that need to be applied.

That site charges a fee for full access if I recall correctly.
But another way to get access is to post a quota of reviews.
So right away you see a conflict of interest, an incentive for members create fictitious reviews.
