According to a communication I received from a VP level employee (a former client of mine) at National A-1 (the parent holding company of escorts.com), I have a feeling that a lot of the comments will be returning in at least a "limited" version (or with additional disclaimer[s]) in the very near future.
Are they useless? Not completely. At least not in my opinion. There are thirteen "best ever" recommendations on my current account and on my previous account at escorts.com (due to a name change when I formally left an Agency, at their request so not to confuse their clients) there were over one hundred. Nothing less than a "best ever" - ever. I think that speaks volumes. The only reason there are not more on my current account is due to my strong insistence that I keep a firm no review policy, so many return clients stopped leaving reviews and many new clients do respect a lady's wish, especially when they would like to return.
This is a little off topic, but I have always had a NRP (no review policy) on this and every other board . . . I've even had reviews pulled from escorts.com at my request when the "detail" was (in my estimation) a little too "much" and I do not allow TER reviews (they remove them for me at my request when they intermittently appear, they have done so for the last several years) . . . so for the most part, the comments that are now missing from the escorts.com reviews in MY particular instance would not have given you much more "information" than you have by examining them now. They were all fairly generic and little if any activity that I provide behind closed doors was ever mentioned by my clients, out of respect for my policy and my wishes. However, escorts.com always generally stood by their policy of keeping the reviewer's basic notations such as date, recommendation, location, etc. online (unless the review was determined to be patently false), even if they removed the comments at a provider's request. Also, escorts.com allowed a member to "hide" their reviews from view (which I have done before). Now that the reviews are COMPLETELY generic, I feel comfortable linking to them. In my opinion, having a "yes" or "no" recommendation is better than "details" and frankly, as with anything in life, a meeting between an Escort and a client may be the ABSOLUTE DEFINITION of "your mileage may vary" . . . so knowing what I did with "member1234" and then with "member12345" certainly is not indicative of what may occur with you . . it may be more, it may be less, it may be at your request, it may be at my preference . . . but no matter what, no two appointments are EVER the same.
The reasoning and rationale behind my policy really is the topic for a whole other thread (and a lively and verbose thread at that I am certain it would be) but succinctly, it is a personal preference to limit liability . . . aside from the fact that I keep secrets for a living, that reality is part and parcel to my profession and I expect the same from my clients . . I don't "kiss and tell", I firmly expect the same courtesy in return. Unfortunately, as many here are all too aware, at the present time, someone active in this endeavor has to be constantly cognizant of mitigating risk(s) and controlling exposure . . . The last thing any of us wants is to be the lowest hanging fruit on the vine that is easily picked. In MY experience, limiting and controlling reviews is one way to accomplish the goal of remaining out of specific people's "view", as I was taught by a twenty year veteran of the business (may he rest in peace). The last thing I want to do (to myself OR on behalf of my clients) is to draw undue attention to anything "specific".
I've a stellar track record and I stay very busy - I am very lucky to have WONDERFUL "word of mouth" referrals from both previous clients and other Escorts / providers . . but also, I work very hard to cultivate those professional relationships and to provide my clients an experience that is unique and leaves them wanting to return . . and I stand by my motto of "Never a Disappointment". No one has ever taken me up on my "money back guarantee", but if you're looking for specific details, I welcome you to book an appointment and experience me for yourself. Additionally, in reading my Website, one may develop a fairly accurate mental picture of what an appointment with me may be like, and there is always the option of contacting a previous client of mine via this board (as it may have revealed itself in conversation) or a gentleman that has left a review on escorts.com for more detail (although they may simply tell you that "Jackie doesn't kiss and tell and requests I don't either - but I'd recommend her wholeheartedly" . . . which I understand many of them do, and I appreciate that).
There's at least one lady here (in this thread) whom has seen you that would highly recommend me to you (privately, as such recommendation should be made).
I certainly understand and can empathize with those that take an opposite view from that of my own in regard to reviews. However, it is a personal preference and it has suited me very well.
If tomorrow, escorts.com returned the "details" to the reviews and left me as a provider with no ability to hide certain comments I felt left me in jeopardy by their being revealed, I'd quit linking to them in a New York minute. As it is now, the recommendations suit me and my purposes fine.
I do thank you for the recommendation, I appreciate your concern and where you are "coming from" in making the statement and pointing out to me that at present, the escorts.com reviews are not as detailed as they used to be . . . but I hope that you can appreciate my concerns. Although an impossibility, if you could see the issue from a professional Escort's "shoes" you may agree with me and the many, many other ladies (especially now, after the Desert Diva's cases in Arizona) that have a NRP (no review policy).
I'm sorry to be so long winded . . . I suppose I could have said "Thank you, I'll look into that" and been done with it, but not only will others tell you that isn't typically "me", I really wanted to give people a glimpse into why a lot of professional Escorts feel as I do!
Kisses,
- Jackie
Time to change
