Review Backlash

[Pistolero]

Like I said, I have seen a lot of reviews which said will provide in the phone slot and no other contact info. That was what I was referring to.

Sorry if it was not clear.

Not trying anything here. Only mods and admins are able to look at a review and see if it has been approved. I was just curious.

P, we are notified at the top of a review if it has been approved or not, and who approved it. Just thought I would throw that in there.

I assume Pistolero meant to say the mods, admin and the original poster of the review. I think he is testing our IQ by leaving out a strategic word or phrase and seeing who can read between the lines.

I don't think anyone other than those (plus all the people who the WK's leak info to) know which reviews have been accepted.

Actually, I forgot about that.

Not that there is anything wrong with that... if done BEFORE posting as a review!

And (don't forget the other key part) the lady can't admit knowing details or acknowledge ever receiving such info!!!

Waitt, I think you're trying to do something helpful, but I don't think this is a situation where you can really help. Providers get all kinds of shady calls. Learning how to deal with them is a part of becoming a professional.

If you think your reviews are the source of the shady calls, don't include her phone number. But that just makes it harder for legitimate hobbyists to get in touch with her.

I think the best solution is to follow the provider's lead. If she puts her phone number in her ads, you should be fine to put it in your review. If she says "PM me" or "email me" or something similar, provide that contact information.
