Bad reviews are not deleted on this board unless it is clear that the review is fabricated. As long as reviews are honest it will stand.

We get requests from agencies and independents to delete sub negative posts / reviews because they do not like what it was said. Or they don't like the member, we politely say we are a review board where all members have the right to judge and make their own opinions.

We may edit some if we find it was uncalled for but never delete an honest review. We hold a shorter leash on new members that all they do is bash on an agency/Indy but from veteran reviewers they stand as they are trustworthy.

Have been threatened they will not pay our fee if we do not do what they ask. We say it is your prerogative and we will not stand for blackmail or bullying of any kind.

We cater to our advertisers and bend backwards for them but we also respect the members that find the time to review their POV of who they have seen. We know we cannot please everyone and can end up in a lose/lose situation. But after all it is called a review board for a reason.

Thank you and hope this makes sense.

Wow, glad to be a member here.

Great response. To add to my previous post. Being known for being an honest review site is the ultimatum. Being a shill site for advertisers are a dime a dozen.

If all fails Bigguy, you can start charging members instead. There are a couple of very successful sites out there that charge you a yearly fee and reviews can only be viewed by their VIP. These are for the serious hobbyists.

My respects to you HUBGFE. The other major sites ridiculously patch up by adding fake members viewing their site with bots, yours remain according to your real number count. And to think so many people think that is the real count they are viewing. They specially the blue one think they will get more income by cheating and shilling.

Not a smart professional business practice.

And then are boards like the "shitshow" where paid advertisers not only will have that review removed, but they will ban the review for good measure. Hint, it's blue in color. Moreover, there are boards that don't allow negative reviews of any kind - the near useless boards that is.

.

i've checked it for a couple of days and found so many discrepancies on too many to mention. Bottom line is it's such a bore and have no idea why anyone will want to read all the bull that is created there. Owner actually thinks it's entertaining :LMAO:

How many of their mods have multiple handles there?.
