Besides “ED69”. Has everyone stopped punting or taking a long break. So few AR getting posted. Cost of living is biting hard.
I do, but it’s been a series of duds lately so I’ll refrain from mentioning any
I’m punting regularly (probably more than I should) but I’ve cut back on posting reviews since some fuckwit accused me of taking payment or favours for reviews (I don’t) and telling girls I’m a reviewer to get better service (also dont). It takes some time and effort to write a decent review, not worth the hassle just to get accused of bullshit.
I’ve seen similar accusations recently against other ARs. Almost seems like if anyone posts a positive review for one of the less popular or less known shops people will come out of the woodwork to accuse them of being a shill.
I actually did post a new review a few days ago, but it quickly got bumped down to page 5 or something by the shops bumping their old reviews every couple of hours. I accept that’s legit and within the forum rules, and the shops essentially pay to keep this forum free for us punters, so it’s all good - but it does add an extra barrier for posting new ARs if you know the casual forum users never going to see or benefit from them before they get bumped into oblivion.
Only really at my regular at Panja as moneys a little tighter these days so taking a risk isn’t a good idea for me, at least with my regular I know I’m going to be satisfied
You said it bro, cost of living is really creeping up, had been for a couple of RnT’s in the last few months but mostly with well-reviewed and known MLs.Quote:

Time to get back to ARs gentlemen
I've noticed the slow down of reviews as well.
But I also have slowed right down in punting, and when I do, it's my regulars. I assume it's the same for many too.
The cost vs benefit of masturbating at home vs the time and cost to go out is surreal.
Unspoken side effect of the cost of living crisis…everyone is back to doing their wives!
I wouldn’t call my self a “punter”, more of a dabbler. My interest in seeking services really fluctuates but being on this forum, it really gets me enthusiastic and I just need to strike while the iron is hot otherwise it’s another few months before I feel the urge again lol. I can easily go years without the touch of another human and that’s something I want to change. I think Zozo Massage (for the rimming) is my next target though.
Or posting something negative and get accused you are other shops owners.Quote:

I’ve cut back a lot and almost never revisit the same girl due to them drastically increasing their fee. In the 24 years of punting only a few are actually worthy of paying that extra.
The rest I can’t justify paying more for the same or less
Months without an urge...that's true monkmode right there.Quote:

Just very time poor at the moment.
I mostly repeat popular long stay regulars, who already have a lot of ARs written about them. I occasionally write a comment here and there.
Yep still punt once or twice a month seen a private on Monday night
Agree. There is so little incentive to bother anymore. I would have posted a dozen reviews over the last year and don’t think any got any discussion. Really don’t know why I return to this website. Stockholm syndrome or something.Quote:

Yeah I agree with others. I'm still seeing my reg but not as regularly & really not worth "rinse & repeat" AR's.
My radar is still on 'tho & currently exploring some other joints...
This site is more chat than review orientated. If you want reviews you have to use xxx or TNT and most same people won't tolerate the moderator nonsense associated with those sites
So if I understand this correctly
Glowing ARs
- Shop owner trying to drum up business
- Punter is a shill pocketing kickbacks and freebies from a shop
Negative ARs
- Competitor trying to undermine shop
- Butt hurt punter banned from a shop
- Chicks refused to service him (eg Indian, morbidly obese, etc)
Juicy Extras ARs
- Punter is lying or exaggerating
- Punter has blurred fantasy with reality
- Other punters pile on, questioning credibility of review
No Details ARs
- Filler review from a punter chasing 50 posts
- Review spawns endless questions and speculation
- Review is deemed bullshit
No ARs at all
- Punter is a sex forum parasite, leeching without contributing
- Punter is a selfish cunt keeping hidden gems to himself
Another words "you're fucked if you post an AR, and you're fucked if you don't"
Without a doubt; writing an AR (at least what I consider an AR, more than a couple of lines of "She's good, I enjoyed") takes time and effort. And for what?Quote:

But when you look at their "body of work"... questions, negative comments, but any good time AR's... MIA or, at best, sparse. So where are their good times? Too lazy to post? Gatekeeping? Or "Composition challenged" - can't string some sentences together to make a paragraph, a couple of paragraphs together to make an AR? Past-history, "I miss Sue, she was great, too bad she retired" doesn't count as a positive.
- One-Way Streets
Comments and questions, so many questions. But NEVER any followup, payback, reciprocity.
- After An AR
"How old is she? How tall? Weight? Shoe size? Left handed or right handed?" But never a subsequent AR describing their experience.
- General
Too easy to take 10 seconds to post a question rather than RTFF, UTFSE, expecting the unpaid to answer.- Scammers
Posting one line comments, crud, to up their post count (even a thread for that). Then, nothing, or more crud comments, questions. Their contributions... a steaming pile of excrement? Nah, that's an exaggeration. More like a trail of diarrhea dribbles.
- Lurkers
They exist on all free forums. But they do contribute, their visits up the visitor counts, increased advertising rates.
So why write AR's? Some lingering sense of gratitude for the help that the forum has provided.
HOWEVER, and you know there has to be a HOWEVER, if for no other reason than to dissuade the above with a TL/DR.
If you require AR's to punt, then all I can say is baa, baa, baa. Plenty of intel here, shop and roster threads, with photos (yea, I know all about photos). But it's a start. Does the shop have a website, WeChat, locanto? Photos, descriptions? Then, the only tried and true method: BOTG.
For the record: I understand about no repeat AR's for regulars. Would just be a copy and paste - why they're regulars.
Myself: Drydocked, getting the barnacles scraped off.
======================
For shop buried AR's on the AR thread, I use a solution given by another (sorry, forgot who). Use the "Sort Threads by Thread Start Time". Not a perfect solution, but it does help.

Damn, a perfect synopsis by Double_Adapter. Guess it took me a couple of minutes too long in proofreading. SALUTE.
I haven’t been, for a while now. Been quite busy for the last month and a half. I did book one today this arvo.
Not necessarily. I’ve been filing reviews here for over 15 years. I have always written my reviews in the hour or so after my session as a way of reliving the moment. It’s like “I just paid $X for a session, I want to get my money’s worth”. I’ve never written a review for or against a shop. The fact is that most of my interactions with working girls have been positive. So I tend to write glowing reviews. Even when I’ve had a dud punt I find a reason for it and explain. I never blame the working girl. I think mostly because they are getting the rough end of a business pineapple: selling your body really is the pits! Dud punts are never the girl’s fault. It’s mostly the brothel owner’s greed and poor management.Quote:
