As I have stated before, PERB is an advertising site not a review site.
JC
Even so. It doesn't hurt to review the advertisers! This way, we know which advertiser is better value and the kind of services they provide, if nothing else.

i think its a good idea in a the sense that it helps alot of people find what theyre looking for but it also can be used to sabatoge an sp that one might had a bad time with.
for instance if a client had bad hygiene and an sp wasnt that good to him but was good to other clients is it fair that the smelly guy write a bad review and bash the sp?

Speaking of whether or not to hold back your gems... seems like there are some providers here on perb with new fans who just love to share above the average posting frequency rate. Must be a geo-client-service centric stastical anomaly? :eek:

What are the causal factors? Is it attributed to unconditional love?;)

I understood the statistical anomaly part. What's geo-client-centric?

Is the phenomenon due to the specific geography and client causual factors? (I was being facetious) :D

Why do some sps abnormally receive way more wow reviews from newbies than others if the gem hold factor is so prevalent?

Inquiring minds want to know ! :)

Oh, you added this after I posted a reply. I think it could be because newbies get a lot of information from Perb and go and see someone who is known to be a good service provider. If you look at my posting history from way back when I joined this board: I asked for advise on whom to see. After reading a lot of posts, I decided to see Madeleine for my first time. She already had good reviews and my experience was no different.

As a newbie, I was very nervous and wanted to be sure whom I saw was well reviewed/reputed. I was so nervous I almost bailed out from outside Madeleine's place. But then I came back, parked my car, and went in. My heart was pounding so hard I thought she'd hear it! But then she chatted, and I relaxed quite a bit. She made the session very relaxing. So, I wrote a good review of her.

So, I guess, it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. It's a feedback loop. First time, you are nervous and anxious. You want to be sure of who you are seeing. Newbies see girls who are well reviewed/recommended. They are well reviewed because they provide good service. Newbies come back and write about them. More newbies then do the same thing.

'gem hold factor' does not really count for much when you are seeing somebody who is already well reviewed.

I had this strong urge to not share this girl I saw (several times) -- Barbie. But I wrote the review anyway. I figured if she goes out of business, I won't be able to see her anyway and will end up self-cock-blocking (aah, I just made that up like your 'geo-client-centric' lol), and I hoped she will make time for me when I ask because I've been a regular. Besides, I thought after the initial spike, things will stabilize anyway.

lol! at risk of sounding uber-stupid, except for 'facetious', the definition (of geo-client-centric) is still lost on me!

Let me reword it. Why are these select few sps getting high frequency of reviews from newbies given the so called inherent nature to hold onto gems? Is it because of the city which these clients come from? The type of client they attract? The service the sp provides? Or encouragement from the sp for a review? The involuntary generousity of clients? Volume of clients which translates to higher absolute # of clients on a fixed percent basis?

Or is it many friends with benefits? ;)

lol, no I got it after you edited your post. lol. I answered it above.
I won't single out any sp. I can understand short spurts. But I find it highly unusual on the consistency and frequency particurlary on the basis of one key causal factor. But then again I have been told that I'm a cynical bastard!:cool:

It isn't a statistical outlier or anomaly if it's consistent!

It is if it's occuring to 1% of the total universe of Perb Sps.;)
Not really. Those 1% you talk about have remained consistent. Let me put it another way: it'd be an outlier if random SPs made up that 1% at random times. But composition of SPs that make this 1% has remained consistent, and so it's not an outlier.

Analogy: only a few students get A+ in school. They usually get good grades in every class they take. So, if a consistent F- student got an A+ in another class, it'd be an outlier. But if a consistent A+ student got A+ in yet another class, it'd not be an outlier. In that particular statistic, it'd be an outlier (because A+ is quite far from the mean) but in series of experiments (statistics of statistics) it would not be an outlier because it's position (A+) has remained consistent. An outlier in that experiment would be somebody jumping from consistent F- to A+ and vice-a-versa.

Of course, this does not explain why someone is consistently A+ (or consistently well reviewed). I was only explaining that it isn't an outlier. As for why some SPs score consistent great reviews, I think it's because they provide consistently good service. I am not sure of how much other factors matter. I've personally not been cajoled by any SP to write a review. In fact, I don't even mention I read about them on a review board (Harmony was one exception, because she gives discount to board members).

Actually, I was once asked by an SP to write a "good" review of her. She even messaged me here on this board to remind me to write a review, but I didn't. I never wrote any review of her. Never saw her again either.

I know a guy who is debating whether or not to post a bad review
of a lady in red. He is thinking it would just get deleted anyway,
so why waste 2 hours of his life?

He is also thinking of writing a review about a gem he is seeing.
It would not be a good review, but a bad one. Very bad ; It would
not be deleted.

Is posting reviews a bad idea?

reveiws are very misleading especially on boards such as these.
were any critical comment is frowned at, or deleted.
i mean simple things like age, weight,
are some times damed impossible to find out.

and i think i have the right to know if im going to pay for a lady if she is 200 pounds or sixty years old.
sometimes services are impossilbe to find out as well.
and that is just the basics.

try and find out about a lady's style. and you might as well forget it.
and lets be honest. some ladies are pretty much geared for non stop msog whether you book for one hour or three, you can't slow them down.

other ladies are more single shots on goal, fine wine dinning, maybe a massage or a foot rub, some conversation,
some ladies are more into kink, they want to explore it with you.

some ladies are big into costumes, whip cream and jiggles. or a strip tease.

one of the biggest, misconceptions i have had in this hobby or mistakes i made,
is thinking that one lady could be all things to me.
i mean im paying right, in some cases huge amounts of money.

so why can't a lady be anything i want. from one session to the next.

A tall order! Perhaps taking professional acting classes should be a mandatory pre requisit before joining this career ;) .

One caveat, as you know in every profession despite "professional training" there are both bad and good... be it a teachers, doctors, lawyers or actors :p

Are you just using 47 words to say these are shill reviews?

Are you just one of those people who believes bad reviews without question, but is suspicious of all good reviews.

even good people have bad days, run into trouble.
people have alot going on in there lives.



and sometimes it simply comes down to chemistry or style. they may be the best, but for what ever reason, we simply can't get on the same page.
