Let-s-rate-the-johns-instead

[legmann]

Escorts are running a business and we should be free to express our opinion (bad or good) about them. On the other hand, some people have a bad habit of treating ladies like public enemy number one and get far too personal. Even worse you have people that say "worst time I ever had, stay away" and give no other reasons. Let's be clear about what we are reviewing here: a short period of intimate time you are spending with a fellow human being. Not a nameless, faceless corporation. So I think there should always be some manner of respect given.

Agreed. There is a right way and wrong way to review/comment where the ladies are concerned. For most of us, this goes without saying.

If you must review someone just stick to the facts!

Exactly. Services provided, donation paid, closeness to pics/description, etc.

I think as a SP you have to have a thick skin when reading your own reviews.

Maybe there are times when you may walk away with some constructive criticism. The rest you just have to forget. And if it is really bad you could always stop seeing that person if they said/did something that bothered you on terb.

That said, if girls want to rate johns I say go for it. On terb there is that section but it is geared more towards the extremes of dangerous johns or scammers but why not share information?

I think providers should always think to themselves that they can pick and choose their clients.

The customer is always right and it is a buyers market for sex in the GTA currently. Yet I understand what is called sellers remorse.

Actually, I think it needs to be said more often because it seems that many here seem to forget the human element of this hobby. While it's easy to say "just have a thick skin" or "let things slide", the truth is that negative comments hurt especially when it comes to things that you can't easily change like scars, looks, mannerisms, etc. Even the toughest of us will be affected by negative comments.

I think services provided and closeness to pics and description is also very subjective. Just because she wanted to do XXX with you, does not mean she will do it with everyone. And looks can change based on so many different factors.

Caveat Emptor

I disagree, it depends on what the customer is talking about.

For example, scars or stretch marks. Those things are natural and happen. I've never seen a provider advertise/disclose that. I would let those things slide. But if we are talking say hygiene then absolutely there is no excuse for not being clean.

When it comes to service that too is variable. I wouldn't expect every SP to bbbjcims me.

The areas that I think are inexcusable are fake pics, rude manners, poor hygiene, tardiness, upselling, short changing on time, clean incall. Might be more but that's just quick off the top of my head.

As for buyers market I would agree..... there are lots of choices out there for us and it is competitive.

But I think more buyers need to learn to cut their losses. Let's say you show up and pics are not accurate or she starts in with upsells right away..... give her some cash for her time and leave.

Any sp that started reviewing clients and posting their contact information would only hurt their own buisness. A review of a profile with a name like "mrqueekynuts" isn't going to carry any weight, unless their personal contact information is revealed for reference.

 

[Frankunderwood]

Cash for her time if pics aren't accurate? Nobody should get paid for being deceitful. This is what should be discussed on a review board - pictures are accurate, location was as advertised, she was on time/didn't cancel. All the details about xSOGs, fucking her upside down, etc can be discussed via PM if you really want.

I think you would need to have some kind of online presence (TERB, Twitter, etc) in order for this to work. This is the identity you would use for providing references, so it's in your best interest to use it with any SP that you see, and build up a reputation over time. Eventually, 'mrqueekynuts' will be a well-known profile.

I agree with you Frank its only fair, but the issue still remains would you like your phone number to be shared in a public forum? Even a private forum where your number is only visable by sp's, with the current laws it is still something that would dwindle the industry.

There is a Fetish Provider in the GTA who has a blacklist on her website and she has posted around 30 phone numbers and some names on it.

 

[Smallcock]

The article is a whole lot of nothing.

 

[Brill]

It only takes a handful of abusive reviewers to spoil a good concept like terb that works well for escorts and clients alike. Can't blame her for being pissed off.
Then a jerk tells her to grow a thicker skin and learn to take it? It's disgusting.

A provider lies......I walk and she gets nothing. Giving her something rewards and enables the behavior.

That isn't being cheap. That is just good business sense.

I think more buyers need to learn to use their big head not the little one. Stay way from BP, CL, or other free ads unless you've seen the girl before and watch out for "available 24/7", "low rates", "open to anything" etc in the ad. Keep within the "average" rates most indys and agencies list $200 to$300. There are wonderful ladies either lower or higher than the average.

It also helps to have a bit of patience before making the appointment. You increase your chances of a let down if you try to do things last minute especially with indys.

I think reviews are important. And I generally review them before I decide to see the SP in question. I have no desire to post reviews but as a client I have seen some terrible behavior by a small number of SPs. I just don't give those SPs business anymore and those girls that treat me right will find me to be a loyal client. Reviews at least keep them honest and remain competitive with other SPs in the business - just like any other business.

I am wondering, should I post the link?

 

[SexB]

If she thinks that TERB is bad, she should stay away from a certain competing, and I use that term loosely considering what a laughing stock it's been turned into over the past four or five years, board.

 

[wigglee]

Most SP's that hate Terb do so because they are either dishonest or provide poor service and resent being exposed. Most good providers like it and profit from the good reviews they get.

 

[rhuarc29]

She does have a few good points. One being the dick-measuring several members on here do. I get a chuckle whenever a reviewer attempts to inject his god-like sexual prowess into the review without being too obvious.

But most of her points fall flat. As with most service jobs, people want to know how each provider performs prior to spending their money. Especially in an industry like this that isn't transparent. I can understand her wishing it were otherwise, but I'm sure all kinds of service industry workers wish the same. She's using the argument that these women are "precariously employed" to justify why they should be immune to such reviews, which is complete bullshit. Public and legal sentiment is much more in favour of sex workers versus johns at this point, which makes it even more important johns have some way of knowing what they're getting into with each lady.

She goes on to criticize even the good reviewers who have offered compliments, seemingly taking offense at them daring to judge her, even if in a positive light. This is where she lost me completely.

As for the idea of rating johns; I'll believe that's a valid idea the moment SPs start paying johns for their services. Johns should definitely be blacklisted for certain offenses, but that's about it.

I wish more people would do this. Doing otherwise encourages bad behaviour and makes the industry worse off.

In what other industry would you still pay money for a product or service that isn't what you originally agreed to? To compensate her for her time? What about your time in showing up when the provider knowingly misled you?

FYI, I've never actually had this happen, so I'm not griping about personally experiences. It's just common sense, though, not to pay when you've been ripped off. Just walk away.
