So few reviews

I poon about once a month and I review about 90% of the girls I see. The other 10% are usually repeats w the same girl.

I've been called a shill once before and it does leave a bad taste, but I'll keep reviewing because the good providers make the industry more competitive and should lead to better value for us all. Plus, I want to give back for all the intel I've received from other reviewers.
My pooning experiences have improved immensely since I've been a Perbert. Thanks again to all reviewers.

On a side note: If members spent as much time reviewing as they did flaming or antagonizing each other, this board would be packed with reviews.

I might side a bit with Cargo in this one, I used to post review's and yes I posted on the same Ladies more than once. (I stand by all of of them)

I started to get so many pm's from members who could not be bothered to research for themselves and worse pm's or hijacking of threads from a few who did not understand the YMMV concept! I just gave up.

I like to share and do so a lot, but not on the open board anymore!

Would be nice if the city forum's were left for reviews only and other topic's were brought up in the Lounge and general disscussion.

Might also be nice not see so much Hijacking of post's in the advertisment section!

It would be interesting to hear the whining and complaining if the Mods decided to start a clean up drive and delete or move post's and threads to where they belong!!! But knowing how "all" like to cooperate on this board it should not be needed!

Members who commence a new thread with a glowing review of a provider are unlikely to get jumped on as a shill, UNLESS their date of membership indicates they could have just joined PERB within the preceding couple of days. If that is the case, there's a good chance the review is a shill. No?
No, I don't agree, just because someone joined recently, where do you
get the idea that they are shillers! :rolleyes:

For example, if a new member shows membership commencing April 2006 and the review is posted April 29, the member could have been a member a maximum of 29 days. And most probably less, as little as two days. Does this reviewer have his session and suddenly discover PERB and just has to post a review? Fuck!! Isn't that suspicious timing?
Only if you think it should be. Maybe the guy has been pooning for years
only to have just discoverd Perb.
Why the hell should it be suspicious? What does joining date have to do
with a person being a shill? We all joined at one time or another.

I think in my case after discovering PERB, it was three months before I posted my first review on PERB. Little likelihood of me being called a shill with that review considering the timing. No?
Again, regardless of join date, even three months after joining and posting
a first review if "could" be a shill. Reverse psycology ?


Or if it's the new member's first review to an existing thread trying to support an SP whose services are being questioned. Bigguy
That would give substance to a possible shill, yes.

I am what would certainly be considered a "newbie". I joined a month ago and have made 30 some odd posts and 3 reviews.
As a newbie I have way more questions than answers and the "search" function has been a great source of information. I read what all the "old timers" write and try to learn from it.
The only reason I have only made 3 reviews is that I seem to find favorites and go back to them on a regular basis. If I gave a review for the same person over and over, I am sure the term "shill" would pop up.
I am always looking for new talent but that information is closely guarded by the favored few and they don't want to give it up. I can accept that and I have now branched out buying the STD and reading CL, and the buy and sell, etc.
It is hard being a newbie, however, and a little more assistance from the regulars would be a "beautiful thing":(
I'm not expecting any more assistance, however, so I will continue to muddle along in my own way and submit more reviews as I see new people.

I haven't been reviewing as much mainly due to: a) a decrease in my pooning frequency, and b) I found one SP that I liked and went to on a more regular basis; therefore, I wasn't going to review her again. I did get a bit discouraged when one review got into a bit of a pissing match because someone didn't agree with my assessment of the situation. Sometimes, you just want to tell the person: "Shut the fuck up. If you don't fuckin' like what I have to fuckin' say, then write your own fuckin' review. You fuckin' bastard". But whatever. I'll still review if I think I have something to offer, information-wise; but I'm not going to go out of my way to do so as much as I would have before.

I remember when I first joined, there was a sticky in the Lounge, I think it was written by ModWest/hifisex/gravitas, that gave a quick rundown for newbies. It discussed the issues of shills, accusations of shilling, things that would raise suspicions of shilling as well as information that's useful in a review. For instance, bigguy mentions the join date coinciding with the posting of the first review. That was addressed in that thread so I followed it's advice and simply posted a few times so that perberts would be aware of me before posting my first review. I found it very useful and wish that it was still up as I think that it help steer a lot of first timers from making some rookie mistakes.

I do give out reviews of SP's that I visited. However, once I find someone that I really enjoy to spend time with, I like to stick with just one SP and don't venture into the SP market anymore. Writing multiple reviews for the same SP is just something I usually don't do. If my regular becomes unavailable, then I will start searching for alternative and I do write a review and share my experience with other pooners. One thing that I notice is that there are much fewer SP's in the city now compare to last year. I remember there used to be close to 100 SP's that advertise on Eros Vancouver.

I'm someone who does write reviews. I keep plugging along and try to set an example for newbies to follow and I take some pride in that. You get from PERB what you put into it and I've been rewarded with many PM reviews from other guys that want to trade contact information of ladies. I also get a lot of PM's from people that only want to take information and not share it... but you're going to get that. Newbies should understand that they are more likely to get help if they sincerely try to help themselves first and also if they are willing to offer help when they can.

I'm going to still write reviews in the future because it keeps my name active, however I believe most of the good reviews are being shared behind the scenes through emails and PM's. IMHO there isn't fewer reviews, there's just fewer reviews being posted in the review section where the lurkers hang out.

Was just looking in Vancouver Reviews. A batch of PERBs are calling SHILL on a guy who reviewed Taylor Made. As if Jackie Marachino isn't the most fun, gorgeous skinny Italian Sp around.

I'm SO encouraged to write a review and have SHILL called on me.

Couldn't have said it better myself there H@W, like I said myself, when I
joined this board my goal was to offer reviews of girls I've seen and many
have benefitted from this through PM's and replies, that in itself is reward
enough and they have offered contact info in trade. I will still continue to
do this till the day I retire ! :eek: God forbid !! LOL!!

I too will keep posting reviews so others may enjoy what I've experienced with also the hopes that they will come on board and share their's as well. That's about the best we can do here and exactly what the board is meant for.
