too bad. Bad and overpriced service imo, but the facility was nice.
Was just way too public though, busy business open all night right next door and pretty close to residential.

Another reason Not to list the exact address. Only the cross streets
Maybe. But the authorities can figure it out from the phone number or cross streets anyway and then every review that doesn’t contain excruciating detail gets at least 5 replies from mongers demanding someone lead them through the door. In my opinion, the best thing for “the hobby” would be no review sites, but it is what it is.

Let's stop kidding ourselves here. Even with detailed reviews or very little or no details at all, full addresses or cross streets only, phone numbers or without, LEs are still going to figure out what's going on and where they're happening.

We can't one-up them. The only reason they can't close down every single one of these places is because it's a futile attempt. You close one down, two will take its place.

Review sites are made just for that purpose, "sharing reviews" and "giving out info". It doesn't matter how much you put in. Can you imagine PMing members several times a day just to get info on a place or their experience? o_O

Bottom line is, whenever we go about our business, there is always that risk involved so just be careful and hone your senses.

LE are lazy. They rather not do the leg work finding the exact location. So if you hand them the information they will act on it.

The NYPD don’t want to act on this shit, anyway. it’s not like they are combing this site and see a FS review and are like “awww, shucks there is no address, just the nearest corner and a phone number that probably corresponds to an ad somewhere if not a yelp listing but I’m suddenly sleepy.”

busts are driven by citizen complaints. Could be an annoyed neighbor, an unhappy wife, an unhinged customer or even a competing business. Now with D.O.B. getting involved, add grabby realtors, massage competitors and contractors who want to force the call for “compliance repair” business.

Btw, The Rubmap ads for 58-94 Grand clAimed you couldn’t even get a handjob there, so how does that fit your theory?

LE doesn't need to use this site. When asking the Judge for a warrant they reference Ms. Butterworth's call on 3/18, Ms. Pompey's call on 4/19 and Mrs. Robinson's call on 5/1 to complain about "quality of life"

Nothing on this site is admissible or can be considered verified unless corroborated by direct experience.

The department money comes from the politicians and the politicians only care if people care. Follow the money trail. There is a reason that Ridgewood/Maspeth is No-go land for Spas...More conservative religious families who are politically active.

I still believe that exact address should not be cited in the heading or the body of the review or comments. That is my opinion.

Their last ad on bedpage was indicative of the operation. They had pics of the actual girls I believe lined up in the spa like cattle bending over in various poses. The ad also stated the address and touted they were open 24 hours. This, in a quiet low crime residential commercial area.

And it sticks out like a sore thumb probably with the neon lights, no internet ads needed....Pastor Timothy already reported it for "identity theft" when his Wife saw it on the CC statement :LOL:

I had one review I posted where I omitted address and specific details (including name) because my fave spa does a REALLY good job of flying under the radar. My review was not approved and I think certain policies should be changed.
