I often wonder if the review writers are the more high maintenance and whining crowd? That said I understand if there's a dangerous situation to post about or calling out someone for not showing up.

What do the rest of you think about the importance of reviews?

But my sense of humor (and other things) should be well known by now.

Off-topic - Stock Trader is most likely a guy mainly because when he first started he thought meeting in public for 400.00 was enough to get past a woman's screening. Total dude mentality. The women who think that is proper screening tend to type worse. I dunno if he's since gotten hacked or gave away the account but I'm reasonably sure that the original owner of the account was male.

On-Topic - Reviews are useful for activities. If over the course of several reviews a lack of DFK and LFK shows up you would expect that that is not her favorite to provide. I read the public part of the reviews when cruising for future double partners when a client doesn't want to use my ATF.

Stock Trader has no validity whatsoever and should be just put on ignore and hopefully "it" will go away.

Type "worse" or bastardize the English language? I read the public part of the reviews when cruising for future double partners when a client doesn't want to use my ATF.

I believe that some of the reviews here are tainted by providers selling Kool-aid.

Cooper believe it or not as far as the board is concerned I'm Switzerland. I stay neutral as far as invented board drama goes and to top it off I don't even hobby in Austin. So I literally have no dog in this race. There's a lot of overlap in Austin and SA hobbyists so I end up over here when I'm screening someone and then inevitability get sucked into the co-ed. Just because I said the person who wrote Stock Trader's original post was male literally has nothing to do with how I feel about his posts or current temper tantrum.

Most of the established FS providers will not see someone without screening, be it provider references or real world information. A newbie offering to meet in public, to bypass a lady's requirement to disclose personal information, is not new and often met with a resounding "no". "I swear I'm a nice guy!" and the ability to not behave like a douchebag for a hour is not enough for a woman to go anywhere with a man alone.

Seriously, going through the hoopla that Stock Trader has is fucking stupid if it's just a mandle. How hard is it to make up reviews of moco chicks or strictly BP girls that want nothing to do with this site? Unless it is a mandle of some chick that doesn't have basic reasoning or observation skills Then they deserve kudos for working twice as hard for half the profit (and I'm sure they have a lovely time doing 5 BNG's over the course of three hours instead of working for an hour and getting to enjoy themselves). I admit I default towards giving people the benefit of the doubt because the the other option is just to assume everyone is an idiot.

I based my statements on observation. You really expect me to call out the providers that I think express themselves online less than stellar and have (in my opinion) shoddy screening? Nope, not happening.

As for the two "that"s in a row...please excuse me for losing my train of thought in the middle of a sentence I had started in plural and ended in singular. No one can accuse me of being perfect.

P.S. If a provider needs a mandle to drum up business or fight her battles she is completely weak and should get into a business more suited for her.

+1.

Why create a "mandle" without establishing premium access?

Lame.
