Why? Simply because if I had a good time, I may want to see that provider again and if I disobey her wishes she can choose not to see me again. Now if I write a bad review I could care less about seeing that provider again because I won't wish to see them again.

I get why a provider wouldn't want to be reviewed, what I do not get is a guy making a huge deal about it. Is it strictly due to PA? Can't you buy a lifetime PA for 200 bucks? Or here is a thought, see a provider that doesn't give a shit if you review her or not.

On another note I didn't realize you could review the same provider several times. I have seen the same provider three times over the last 3 months and only reviewed her one time. I would think of not making a habit out of reviewing the same provider 7 times in as many months. Shouldn't there be a rule against this?

Ken - to answer your question, you may review the same provider multiple times. The gap between reviews for PA credit is supposed to be 90 days.

For all who have participated in this lively discussion....


I have recieved confirmation from St. C. regarding the board's no review policy. Any provider may have a "no review" policy, regardless of whether or not they advertise in the traditional, non-traditional (threADs or sig line) or no ad way - we will try to accommodate all "no review" policy requests or to have ads removed if a no review policy has been established by a provider. However, the decision to review is still up to the client/hobbyist. Now, if a review is posted for a provider, and that provider requests that a review be removed because she has a "no review" policy, it will be determined on a case-by-case basis as to whether or not the review will be pulled. Chances are, based on policy #29, if the provider advertises in the traditional ad forums, the review will remain. There are sticky notes at the beginning of some of the forums stating that a service provider has a no review policy, mainly in the spa/studio/MP forum.


The best course of action would be - if a provider says she has a no-review policy, don't review her. This would be best as it would not upset the provider; would probably get you in to see the provider again, since she wouldn't be upset; and would cause fewer headaches for the mods so we don't have to figure out if the request to have a review pulled is legitimate.

Play on, stay safe, and, as Warren Oates as Sgt. Hulka said in "Stripes", "Lighten up, Francis".
