Hi Gentlemen. I'm a newbie and am looking forward to writing a review on my date tomorrow with Sasha St. Claire. Are there standard rating guidelines on numerical scoring that I have to follow? Anything I have to look out for to balance the subjective with something objective? Thanks.

I'd avoid numerical scoring... seems to attract easy flaming.
i think his choice for a handle may attract flaming. odd that of all names he would go with one of an already high posting member, not to mention picking said members favorite sp to review. a little weird.

The standard rating guidlines are just that,... `guidlines'. You'll most definately know at the end of the session if you had a great time or not,....right? Score it (if you must) based on that. Or, have a look at other reviews of similar high end, respected Service Providers and you'll be fine to follow their lead. Pretty simple.

One thing some of us would like to see an end to is the stupid donation code. I mean, who do these guys who continue to use this `secret-code' think they're fooling. LE?

Why so many still insist on putting down $$$.50 or xxx Jade Canoes, or 3 browns, or as one person wrote, xxx Wilfrid Laurier, whatever the hell that's suposed to mean. If you must include the donation then just say it in plain language.

Cheers,..good luck

At least add the last four digits of the contact phone number plus BP or ERlist or CL. And as a second courtesy identify the general district where you saw the SP; e.g., Metrotown, West End or Surrey or Richmond or South Vancouver etc. so as the reader is conveniently aware of how interested he may be. (A reader from West Vancouver is most likely not to be interested in a Chilliwack or Langley location.)

I think people are generally pretty happy if you address the following:

-accurate photos?
-services delivered as advertised?
-friendly attitude?
-clean incall?
-ease of booking procedure?
-on time or late?

Some people like the numbers, but they are so subjective. To some, 7/10 means unattractive. To others, 7/10 means above average. It's almost useless.

I think if you were to say "The photos were accurate and I was pleased by her appearance. With regards to her face, which she does not show in ads, she sort of reminded me of [fill in the blank] celebrity" then that will get across the information much better than using a number to rate looks.

Have a great time!

Welcome to Perb!

Just wanted to add one thing: reviews are great for business, but only if they're "findabe" (is that a word?) on the web. Make sure you spell the escort's name exactly as it's written on her site. The difference between St. Claire and St. Clair might not seem important to you or me, but it is to a search engine :p

Happy Hobbying!

right on the line
Especially cuz that old member had a session with this SP today, I know this because I share an incall with her and his name was in our shared calendar!
I call shill.
Technically not a shill, but if it is BadgerJohn with a new handle, it is misleading ;) I just noticed that BJ got banned for a few weeks; though I know he's often involved in the board (gasp) drama, I would have never guessed him for being banned!

EDIT. Just read BS's (hehe) review of Sasha (who is quite hot, isn't she!); there's something oddly familiar about that writing style.... hrmmm !

nothing technically about it mel. you misunderstand the meaning of the word. the following is from wikipedia:

"Shill" typically refers to someone who purposely gives onlookers the impression that he is an enthusiastic independent customer of a seller (or marketer of ideas) for whom he is secretly working. The person or group who hires the shill is using crowd psychology, to encourage other onlookers or audience members to purchase the goods or services (or accept the ideas being marketed). Shills are often employed by professional marketing campaigns. "Plant" and "stooge" more commonly refer to any person who is secretly in league with another person or organization while pretending to be neutral or actually a part of the organization he is planted in, such as a magician's audience, a political party, or an intelligence organization (see double agent).
just sayin' ma'am... :)

After I think about it... I don't think anyone is that pathetic to come back on a different name that rhymes with their old name just to post a review...
it more than rhymes - it's the same name in a different language!

from wikipedia:

Seán (Ulster dialect spelling Séan) is an Irish language name. It is Irish borrowing of the Norman French Jehan (see Jean). Anglicisations of the name include Sean (pronounced siin), Shane, Shayne, Shaine, Shan, Shon, Shaun, and Shawn. The name Shane comes from the Ulster pronunciation of the name, whereas the names Shaun, Shawn, or Sean come from the way it is pronounced in Munster, Leinster, and Connacht.

In 1066, the Norman duke, William the Conqueror conquered England, where the Norman French name Jehan / Johan (pronounced [dʒɛˈan]) came to be pronounced Jonn, and spelled John. The Norman from the Welsh Marches, with the Norman King of England's mandate conquered Ireland in the 1170s. The Irish nobility was replaced by Norman nobles, some of whom bore the Norman French name Johan or the Anglicised name John. The Irish adapted the name to their own pronunciation and spelling, producing the name Seán. Sean is commonly pronounced Shawn (Seán), but in the northern parts of Ireland (owing to a northern dialect), it is pronounced "Shan", "Shen" or "Shayn" (Séan, with the accent on the e instead of the a), thus leading to the variant Shane.

BadgerJohn: The soap opera continues.

Hi Gentlemen. I'm a newbie and am looking forward to writing a review on my date tomorrow with Sasha St. Claire. Are there standard rating guidelines on numerical scoring that I have to follow? Anything I have to look out for to balance the subjective with something objective? Thanks.

Ok. I don’t know if anyone else can see what I’m seeing here but here goes...Sorry but this is a long one…

My, my, my. So many posts. So many denials. Pardon the slight misquote from that famous Shakespeare line : "Methinks that BadgerJohn doth protest too much”. If BadgerJohn is occasionally referred to in abbreviated form as BJ then badgersean can also be referred to in abbreviated form as BS and I’m calling BS on all his crap.

Here’s why. First of all, best to start from the beginning with this recent posting by the new member called badgersean. I think these are fair questions and some things just don't add up.

The members (me included) offered sincere advice to, I’m a `newbie’ badgersean. Help wanted on standard rating guidelines, numerical scoring etc, etc, on an upcoming date with an SP named Sasha St. Claire. Sasha, as most of us are already aware, has positive reviews and all Mr. Newbie really had to do was check. But ok, we helped. Good advice came in to help from more than a dozen or so members. Then I read Miss Melody’s doubting post and CorriGuy’s curious observation on this `oddly familiar writing style’. Plus borko’s suspicions on the similar choice of the `newbies’s handles and VanCowboy’s wikapedia comparison.

Seems others were thinking the same as me. Such an interesting topic I thought I’d check further and slowly the lights went on.

The `newbie’ badgersean’s review on Miss Sasha St. Claire showed up the next day and low and behold, WOW,..it sure as hell didn’t read anything like a new guy’s rookie posting. In fact it looked extraordinarily familiar.

Like borko suspected, I did too. A writing style, much like your signature, is very hard to disguise. Like a literary fingerprint. It definitely read in ways like something I’d seen a number of times before so I had a look at other reviews/posts by BadgerJohn and interestingly enough the writing styles are remarkably similar to the `newbie’… badgersean.

Then just by chance I came across this review on Autumn 0023. It was posted way back at the beginning of January. Over a month ago. She’s had (how shall I put this delicately) somewhat less than stellar reviews in the recent past and here, magically, is this well detailed, absolutely glowing review of Autumn, by Hmmm,…by another New Member called shagadelic.

Note: Shagadelic with one G not two.

Again to be clear. I came across this Autumn 0023 review just by chance and at this point it had zero to do with either BadgerJohn or badgersean yet when I read it, and the subsequent back-and-forth conversations with tantalizeme and Man Mountain, the writing again looked abnormally familiar. Immediately under that Autumn post was a reply from the REAL shaggadelic.

The real shag has two G’s and has been a member since 2010. Next followed a confirmation request from nerdburger to the fake shag (shag with one G) asking for another review. So far the shag (shag with one G) has yet to reply.

Now today I see that BadgerJohn has replied to that Autumn 0023 post. WTF? Why? I have no idea. What would motivate him to pull up this obscure thread? There’s nothing significantly attention grabbing. It’s simply titled Autumn 0023.Could he also be the fake shag? Very odd. Interestingly, the last one to comment on this thread was nerdburger almost 2 weeks prior on Jan 19 so the thread was pretty much dead. Buried’ way down the list. Buried under two pages or about 30 other threads when I came across it yesterday.

By this seemingly odd coincidence, BadgerJohn replies to it today thereby bumping it back into the mainstream. Defending his badgersean/ BadgerJohn fiasco. Since no one pulled it up and no one made any mention of it, and no one made any writing comparison of this glowing Autumn 0023 review/post how is it that BadgerJohn knew about it. Knew where to find it. No one else knew about it. The writing style was almost a mirror image of his but why bring attention to it. Why dig it out?

He claims to see only PERB SP advertisers. The classy, high end ladies and looking at his many posts, that’s apparently what he does. Why on earth, would he out of the blue, decide to look up Autumn 0023 anyway. For what purpose. She’s on ErsList. Not a PERB advertiser. As I said, the post/thread was well buried when I found it. You’d have to do a search for this posting and yes, have a reason to search.

Why am I doing this? Many curious questions without logical answers .

I just don’t think it’s fair to take advantage of some of the good members on here, asking faux advice, pretending to be some green rookie, pretending to be something you’re not, all for the sole purpose of shilling. Sasha doesn’t need a shill. It probably hurts more than helps.

I think however, based on the above, my suspicions now lean more toward, BadgerJohn/ badgersean are both one and the same person. It’s not that hard to acquire a second IP address for shilling purposes if you’re so inclined but why do it at all. Makes absolutely no sense.

Lastly: I wonder,..does (one G) shagadelic, badgersean and JohnnyP86 (another one post Johnny, or is it John, showing glowing support of Autumn 0023) have the same IP address? Curiously, none of these guys have responded nor posted since.

I wonder if any of them will resurface.

The reviews i like are short, concise and to the point (name, part of city, restrictions, fun factor, where they advertise, cost, photo legit). If someone wants to write a 2 page synopsis (i have been guilty of writing reviews exceeding 6 sentences) they may want to send a copy of it to Penthouse Magazine Forum Letters.

ha. i knew i was right. when i first went in to your place, i saw a bike and some running shoes that were too big to be sasha's. mentioned it casually and she said she shared the place with a girl who was 6 feet tall. even though i've never seen you, i've read you were tall, so you were the first person that popped into my head. good to know that at my advanced age i still have some ability to put two and two together.
