Do orgs try to trace users here that post negative comments!

[Skeetmuffin]

I’ve posted some harsh yet objective comments on forums and am wondering if orgs try to match usernames here w phone numbers and penalize you if u critical? I usually wait few days before posting just to be safe

I actually wish others would be a little more harsh and critical. Would save me time and money, which is my goal for others when I post. And I usually try to say at least one thing positive cuz no one trash across the board. I’m usually at least 2pts above the average of others on FB scores. Like if u give out 8-9s you should also give out 5-6s otherwise your curve is too skewed. To each their own, but on my comments I leave out all the flowery plot details and focus more on FB and then just mention any outliers on SA. We all know the standard positions ppl do. I usually just skim all that stuff in reviews and look for solid FB details. Just my 2cents

Sorry just noticed typo in title , it should be “?” And not “!”, ha

I've been made once by a well known org after posting a no recommendation. Fortunately, the org didn't retaliate but instead attempted to make amends. I had a good relationship with them so perhaps it's less about blacklisting, but keeping satisfied customers.

Yea they do. I mentioned something about a screening process and the org texts me later that I lost my appointment because of what I said. I was dumb and mentioned it was like the first appointment of the day so they knew it was me.

Good to know they also do this. I think would be really unfair to get blacklisted for just being objective tho negative

i know they do, got two texts asking if that was my review. A corg also screenshot a review and even showed me asking if its me. Both times the screen names were similiar to mine, but it wasnt me. One was here and other on 151.

Maybe if I post a really bad negative review on those “new car” orgs that always send me messages, maybe it’ll stop them from doing so.

I think it would be impossible for anyone to match the phone #s with usernames.
The only thing the orgs can do is match something you told the PO or RA. Even then it would have to be something specific coz the review and posts here are posted after a few days after submission; not right after the event.

Anybody got a link to the 151 site? Can’t seem to find it…

They 100% monitor the boards and ymmv with retaliation, as each org's PO is different.

Keep it tactful. You don't need to be "harsh" in your reviews.

Calling a girl fat with a bad attitude is very different from saying she is curvier/thicker than typical k-girl and that you didn't seem to connect.
Being upfront about your own priorities (OP focuses on F and B) at the start of a review helps with context, too. It's more useful for fellow mongers anyways, as we all have different preferences.

Hell yea this is monitored, I got blacklisted for calling out Azia's 2nd B&S at LSC. =D

 

[darkwingbuck]

They obviously do... many times they'll try to bully mongers too. Shame on those who do.

How did they find out?

Timing and other appointment related info in the review let the MMS put it together. I now try to be a bit more nondescript and avoid certain specifics that don't focus on the service.

Anyone who thinks the "private" chat room you participate in is any different than this open review/chat room is a fool. Words matter!
Many of those same org lackeys, spies, captain save a hoe viewing this board are more than likely in your favorite not so private board.
This should come as NO surprise

I never put in specific identifying information in my posts or reviews. I also don't reveal my identity to any RAs.

Reviews are supposed to help us decide whether someone is worth the $$ and time. I do it in hopes that others help me either find a gem or avoid the crappy providers.

Shills I put on ignore, obvious org reviews I ignore.

It was a review that led me to see KGA Claire. It was a recommendation here that led me to see BCG Jamie.

What’s a private chat? Like direct messages?

Exactly.


The problem really lies not in them knowing who you are on the forums, but in subsequent attempts to leverage that info in order to pressure you. And that pressure will manifest itself when you write a review deemed "bad",no matter how honest it was.


I've said it before and I'll say it again...if orgs/providers were to put customer long-term satisfaction as the #1 priority, they wouldn't worry too much about "bad" reviews that are honest.

They would worry about actual quality more than about people finding out about quality (ie the public image/perception). Yes, this means they'd lose more money short term. But they'd retain integrity and trust of customers.




And hence lies the difference - when choosing between bad reviews that are honest and good reviews are dishonest, most mongers will choose the former and most orgs the latter.

Apps like line, telagram, slack. More ppl more moles

Not exactly the same thing but long time ago before lsc was lsc, they used to ask how was was the session. There was only one time i toftt with a new girl, wasnt a great session. I told them afterwards oh yeah she was tired after 1 shot and was on her phone for the rest of the session. Po called me up and was like shes not supposed to be tired we will have a talk with her. She wasnt on the roster for long after that, so its nice to know they take reputation seriously and wasnt trying to retaliate even after i mentioned some negative things to them.
