Providers with a no review policy may not post ad's on ECCIE. Keep in mind that even if you dont post ad's on ECCIE but do on other public sites your still subject to review. It's the hobbyiest's choice if he wants to review you or not if you are posting ad's in public.

shells out $350 hr any info he can share with the rest of us is appreciated whether it be good or bad. if you do not want your business to be discussed, dissected or critiqued you may not wish to offer it. no restaurant wants a bad review but to expect a patron or critic will not tell someone of a poor meal because the owner would rather they didn't is foolish. on the flip side is service is great the reviewer does a service to other consumers [and perhaps the provider as well whether wanted or not] who thus more than likely will spend their money wisely.

there is no such thing as a "no review" (maybe excluding banned members) policy

if a provider tells you she is "no review" then your options are

1) if she is good, and you want to see her again, you might want to repect her wishes to keep a low profile...otherwise...she may not see you again. she obviously doesn't need the extra business, so you're not doing her or the board a favor.

2) if she is bad, share that information with the board. you probably dont plan on seeing her again...and most of us have dodged scammers, bait&switchs, upsellers thanks to this site which depends on this kind of intel.

If she is providing a service I have a god given right to review that service. I can tell my friends about it, I can tell this board or any other board about it, I can hold a sign in front of the incall proclaiming my love for the place if I want. Its my right.

I adopted the "policy" for a reason....but trust, bad service is definitely not the reason.
And don't get me wrong I love being reviewed, if only to know how to improve my services. Nonetheless, there is always the fear of receiving an altogether false review. (i.e. hobbyist makes up the review to claim credit). Happened to me on another site hence, the policy. (Although not a bad review, it simply was not true!) At that point nobody gains anything because the public is mis-informed & provider is left with the bs task of cleaning up the fictionalized work. I guess I should re-consider...

I got the warm fuzzies when a date said he didn't want to write a review because he wanted to keep me to himself Awwww lol

[Jack Flash]

They also say that when they don't want anyone to know they saw a particular provider. Not saying that is the case, but hobbyists lie just as much as providers do.

Provide a discount. Porsche 996, you are mighty fine, but out of my economics. I would like to retire before 60.

You have to give me a bbbjcim = review

You have to give GOAT a CHJ = review

You have to let Tikkler give you a massage = you write a review on him.

All free of course.
