Posted July 26, 2012 I didn't want to hijack another thread, but a few times every year (just like Groundhog Day), some of the same threads show up dressed differently. This time it's the use of (or over use) of the word FANTASTIC in reviews. Here is a little analogy. Let's say you were given tickets to Red Rocks for three consecutive nights and hear Led Zeppelin, Jay-Z and Kenny Rogers play. YOU personally enjoyed all three concerts and if someone were to ask you to rate them, you would say they all were FANTASTIC. If a guy who likes only Rap music were asked about all three concerts, he may say Jay-Z was FANTASTIC and LZ & KR were just alright. Same with a guy who likes Country music, saying Kenny Rogers was FANTASTIC and LZ & Jay-Z were just alright. Now, take 100 people from all walks of life who like all kind of music and they too were at Red Rocks. Since this group isn't necessarily fond of one type of music, couldn't they say that all three concerts were FANTASTIC? To me, I think this is how/why so many ladies have warranted FANTASTIC ratings. Yes, there are some who will white knight a lady and some have other ulterior motives. But collectively, if a lady has 80% or higher FANTASTIC ratings from a myriad of clients, one could/should expect the same. Thoughts?...Chip away! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 26, 2012 While I don't disagree with your analogy I think it misses a mark. As long as reviews short of fantastic are considered by ASP's to be negative the inflation will continue. As I said in the other thread, while the ratings will always be highly subjective, the bottom line remains: why are you writing the review? If its to suck up, and generate business for the ASP as opposed to informing other clients about the legitimacy of a particular ASP, and possible activities available, well she probably has enough "Fantastics". 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 26, 2012 That is a good analogy BBB. I will say that those hobbyists that give mostly very goods and fantastics seem to have the best time in a session. Meaning, they bring a fantastic vibe with them and set the tone for a fantastic session just being who they are. Add a provider that enjoys her work and a good time is had by all Come looking for things to pick apart and i bet you will find them. Putting a gal on the defensive from the start is not sexy nor fun. Show up excited and ready to enjoy yourself! You should of course review any not so stellar experiences for the good of your hobby peers. Dangerous situations especially. But if you have a string of miserable experiences with girls that everyone else seems to have fun with, you may need to look inward. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
