The Power of Reviews

[Obvio-0bvio]

I look for 3 things in a review, BBBJ, LFK, DATY & no YMMV ( Be polite and clean and it should not happen ). Long reviews which seem to focus more on the customer I skip. The person doing the review has a huge impact also, IMO Myfy has excellent reviews, short and to the point.

I feel touché that you are not a fan of lengthy reviews. It appears that you prefer to skip over the traditional review process.

I personally appreciate longer reviews because they allow for greater imagination, almost as if you are stepping into the shoes of the person writing the review.

I find reviews more enjoyable when the author infuses them with enthusiasm and passion. While I read reviews to stimulate my imagination, it seems you focus on extracting tips or information about the service or menu.

Nonetheless, I completely understand and respect your perspective.

I quit reading Penthouse stories decades ago. My fantasies now are not having to pee 3 times a night and not moaning when I get out of bed

The review needs to be about the SP and not the client.

I see a lot of reviews that try to emphasize on the sexual prowess, financial wealth or higher education of the writer. I guess we all do it to a certain extent including myself. But sometimes it's becoming just too much. I am here first and foremost to find out more about the SP, to see if she might be a good fit for me. I honestly don't care if you drove to your date in a Porsche with a custom jewelry made by T&C as a gift and then used your 10-inch Duracell jackhammer for 45 minutes straight. And while I can appreciate some fun facts, please do not citate and quote the latest Harvard medical publication.

I mostly only read reviews about women that I am already interested in. I enjoy those that are short and straight to the point. A rating with the criteria helps a lot in this sense. I look for red flags about the SP as well: Hygiene issues, cancellations, clock-watcher etc.
Then there are some reviewers that I always enjoy reading from. It doesn't matter if the SP is someone I would never see. The writing style just entertains me tremendously. A good example would be @General TAO Chef's Kiss

 

[Obvio-0bvio]

I'm a SP so I'm on the other side of things, but when I look at reviews that my colleagues and I have received (specially the negative ones), and when I look at the review section in general, it seems to be that a lot of reviews seem to have an ulterior motive, or was written when the person was in a bad mood. I'm not going to expand on this.

Also, a lot of people here seem to be suspicious of positive reviews, which is also weird. I saw someone comment that ''some girls get positive reviews from their regulars and those shouldn't be taken into consideration because the client is biased'' or something along those lines and I find that super strange. If the client is a SP's regular that means he obviously enjoys her services and I don't understand why a review like this can't be taken seriously.

I have met some of my colleagues in person and I know for a fact certain things that were written about them on here were false. (like saying the person looks heavier or older in person than on photos or that she smells bad)

It seems to me like writing reviews is part of the ''hobby'' for a lot of gentlemen here and I think writing the review may sometimes contribute to dehumanizing SP's at times, specially for someone who sees several SP's every week and writes a review right away without thinking too much about it... It's something to consider.

I want positive reviews, but I'm not going to twist my client's arm to get a review out of them. If someone wants to write something good about me, they are more than welcome to do so.. But I'm not interested in playing games for reviews.. I think some people assume that we are doing that.

Well said. Reviews should serve as a tool to better understand what to expect in terms of appearance and quality. They should also be valuable in terms of service and attitude. However, the level of service a customer receives often depends on how they treat the service provider. This can explain why some customers receive different experiences than those who leave positive reviews. For instance, I have had a remarkably positive encounter with a service provider who received negative feedback from other customer. In my experience, every service provider that had negative reviews were completely opposite positive encounter then the one writing the bad reviews . This is not mere coincidence; it often comes down to how customers interact with service providers . You could place the most highly-rated service providers with no negative reviews in front of a difficult customer, and I assure you that the result will be disastrous, leading that client to publicly declare their dissatisfaction on the forum . To receive good service, it's essential to change the way you treat service providers. It’s worth noting that those who frequently write negative reviews often fail to reflect on their own behavior and consider what they might be doing wrong that could lead to a negative experience.

 

[Obvio-0bvio]

From a provider's perspective, I don't entirely see why a negative review needs to be written unless someone is using fake photos, is a scammer or did something wrong (said something really mean to him, was impolite, refused a service for no good reason and still took the money, had very poor hygiene). Not everyone will agree on beauty standards and on what makes a ''good service''. And as you're saying, the way a client is acting will affect the SP's performance. This isn't like rating the food you are eating at a restaurant. As you're saying, the way a client acts will affect what happens during the booking. Really often I've noticed that the way a client talks to me during the booking process and the level of clarity in communication really sets the tone for the session. If a client doesn't state his needs and just shows up and lies down and expects you to give him a good time, chances are he won't.

While I respect your expertise, I feel compelled to share my perspective. I have spoken with several service providers who indicated that if a customer rushes the encounter without giving them time to acclimate and disregards their boundaries, it can lead to anxiety, resulting in less than optimal service. This seems like a reasonable reaction; after all, if you treat me with courtesy, I’m likely to respond with quality service in return. Some providers appreciate a little time to better understand their clients before getting intimate.

However, it's important to acknowledge that some service providers jump right in as soon as a customer arrives—whether to complete the service quickly or simply to ensure a positive experience, regardless of the customer's demeanor. Additionally, some independent providers offer 30-minute sessions focused on efficiency, prioritizing time as a factor in their services. Each provider has their own approach, with some needing a moment to breathe and adjust before engaging with customers . In general , it takes two to tango and create a successful experience.

Reviews become suspicious when there is a negative one followed by 5 overly good reviews written by new accounts. I've seen in quite often and of course it raises some red flags.

As for false reviews, we can't rule them out. But I will also play the devil's advocate :Maybe they were heavier when the review was written. Maybe there was body odor due to a bad day / diet. And of course there is also the matter of perception. What one person considers "heavier" or "older" might not apply to someone else. In fact, after a bad week of sleep most of us probably look 10 years older compared to coming fresh from a vacation.

I believe it is possible to write a negative review in a respectful manner that does not undermine the service provider's confidence. Many service providers actively read their reviews, so constructive feedback is important. For example, if there is an unpleasant smell, one might say, "I noticed a slight odor, which could be due she just finished her menstrual cycle ." Similarly, if a service provider is overweight, it could be framed as, "I typically prefer a slimmer physique." The goal is to communicate feedback in a gentlemanly way that does not hurt anyone's feelings. This approach can aid service providers in making necessary adjustments. It's essential to remember that behind each review, there is a human being who might take comments personally, potentially affecting their work and self-esteem. We should aim to express ourselves honestly but kindly.

Constructive criticism is a type of feedback that offers specific and actionable advice to help providers to improve. It should be clear and direct and include the practical steps to help the service provider to move forward and optimize the services , we are consumers and we want to have a good experiences. saying the truth in a constructive way is always helpful for everyone! thank you for thoes wise words!

 

[dext]

Why not give the provider constructive feedback directly?

I agree with you though, it's possible to write something negative in a more respectful way!

However, sometimes I wonder what's the point of commenting on certain things. If you already know someone is overweight and you're not into that, why are you seeing them? If you know that the person's smell could be affected by her menstrual cycle, why comment on it at all?

You have to understand that this isn't like going to a restaurant or buying a video game. Yes you are a client, of course we need to provide a good experience, but the context is completely different from other types of customer service experiences. SP's are always at risk of experiencing violence or harassment, and most of us already have experienced these things, and it seems like many of you forget about this.

It's also a lot more subjective than most customer service experiences. Clients of SP's all have different needs and different tastes, chemistry and compatibility are large factors that will affect a booking, etc.

what you sais is really true unfortunately.... studies have shown that younger SP's tend to experience more client violence than their older SP's
that’s the sad part of the service providing risks..
dealing with different tastes is also very complicated and it can create many problems like misunderstanding ext..

I would like to emphasize some important points regarding why top notch service providers often take time to accumulate positive reviews, and why we may not see immediate validation after a good review is posted. For those who are not well versed in this forum, it's common to wait for a second member to corroborate a review before feeling confident to act on it. This dynamic can lead to the service provider not being fully booked, which may benefit certain members or the circle of friends within the forum.

To illustrate my point, consider this: when you browse a thread about a highly regarded service provider, you will often notice members who have visited the provider but have not posted a review or validated another member’s review. These members frequently emerge once the secret is out and start to reveal their experiences, stating, “Oh, I saw her a couple of months ago, and she was amazing.” But why wait so long to share that information? This reluctance to speak up earlier is exactly what I’m referring to. If a reliable source provides high praise, don’t hesitate for a second opinion before making your booking. Delaying could result in missing out on a wonderful opportunity to meet a true gem, especially if the secret is out and she becomes fully booked or decides to leave the industry.

Furthermore, when I mention a "circle of friends," I'm alluding to a network within some members from MERB community, where certain members are active and share information about exceptional providers across more underground platforms. However, this network has no affiliation with the Merb platform. It essentially consists of a group of 30 to 50 Merb members who recruit other members from Merb and invite them to their underground platform. Here, they gain exclusive access to top-notch service providers and other details that I cannot disclose here . I know this for a fact because, back in 2007, I was invited to join such a platform after being recruited from MERB due to my active engagement with service providers and my reviews. This may explain why I have garnered some critics on this forum. By exposing top-notch service providers, those in the circle of friends often resent me for slowing down their ability to book these providers for their own benefit after my positive review.

This forum exists to share information about service providers, and if honest members come here to share their positive or negative experiences, it is disheartening not to receive any reciprocation from other members. Such behavior is unfair to those who take the time to provide feedback. I recognize that this may lead to more critics of my stance, but my goal is to promote transparency and break the cycle of concealing valuable information about outstanding service providers.

Thank you for sharing this information with us. Very informative and explains a lot.

Quite true. One I know of is much much smaller than 30, like minded golf buddies who sometimes travel together for a few rounds/games and who share the same 2 hobbies.

Long time ago, the group comprised between 25 to 35 individuals and featured a highly encrypted structured and well organized platform. If you were aware of the details within that platform, you would be truly amazed. It's much more than just friends playing golf and talking about service providers. I won’t elaborate further or disclose any specifics of what I just mentioned; I merely wanted to emphasize the significance of why I often refer to circles of friends.

long love letters are as bad as short nothings
It has been said many times before
Eventually merbites ask the menu
If you want to keep your atf to yourself
Just write
No dfk. No cim. And cbj
Then you can book her everyday 24/7
Or. Help the community and post her offerings and her restrictions. At a minimum. Post her restrictions.
Anything else is useless word porn meant for the writer. Not the reader

If you are aware of my reviews, you'll notice that I don't have high demands of service providers; I typically focus on BBJ, and occasionally enjoy DFK and penetration. No one obligate you to read my reviews; they reflect my personal experiences rather than your own standards. My reviews are based on my encounters and provide insight into what to expect in terms of attitude, body type, appearance, and some specific services I mention. Additionally, if I'm aware of any extra services, I will include that information. To date, my reviews have been beneficial to many members of the community, and I received 5 to 10 private messages on daily basis from members appreciating my reviews and sharing how their own experiences have gone wonderfully thanks to my reviews.This feedback suggests that I'm contributing positively to the community.

Tout d'abord, je tiens à te remercier sincèrement pour tes belles paroles à mon sujet. J'apprécie beaucoup ta perspective et les points importants que tu as soulevés. Je pense également que je vais me concentrer sur ma répétition, mais seulement avec Bianca. Je vais suivre tes conseils et faire une pause avec les reviews, car il semble que plus tu partages de review , plus certains membres développent de l'animosité à ton égard. Bien entendu, je ne parle pas de toute la communauté, mais seulement de quelques individus. En dehors de cela, j'apprécie énormément le soutien de tous les autres membres de la communauté , comme toi, qui me soutiennent et m'apprécient.
