Does flagging reviews make a difference?

  Most of the reviews I’ve flagged have been removed within a couple of days.
  
  TUSCL is a one-man operation (Founder) – and I think TUSCL is side-thing for him?
  
  I recall PMing Founder a few weeks back w.r.t. flagged reviews and he said he was running behind on them.

  If someone gets multiple flags, I think the review might get removed.
  
  I was wondering about a recent review for platinum plus in Greenville. A $25 cover is higher than I ever heard and I only paid $10 on Saturday night. Inaccurate information makes me wonder if they even visited.

  I flagged it. If someone is going to get credit for a review, then at least they could post correct prices or don't include it at all if they can't remember. Maybe they charge male visitors with females 2.5 times the normal price. I would question that cover charge.

  I'm surprised founder doesn't deputize some responsible dudes to help maintain the site.

  I’m willing to help Founder out on my spare time for a rea$onable compensation :)

  As Papi said, founder is a one man show that started as a hobby and grew and grew and grew. In the beginning he had time to read every review and would accept or reject them. One of my earliest reviews was rejected because he though it was more of a story about my experience rather than a review. I rewrote it and it was accepted.
  
  Now there are 100+ reviews submitted every day. There is no way 1 person could read all of those reviews and know if they were factual or not. So Founder came up with the flag system to alert him to bull shit reviews.
  
  I doubt that he makes enough off of the site to hire anyone to help out. So improvements are on hold until he has the time to deal with them.

  Everytime I've flagged a review and written why I am flagging it, within a short time it is gone. Founder does a great job IMHO.

  The reviews I've flagged have been removed as well, with one exception. The exception was propped by someone else, so I assume the two offset.
  
  Like others, I mostly only flag for reviews that contain factual misrepresentations of the club or that were clearly copied. Things like cover/parking charges, CR/Dance price errors, inaccurate club descriptions, etc. I really don't care about someone else getting credit, I just don't like the idea of people going to a club with misguided expectations. It's happened to me a few times and I find it quite annoying.

  I've flagged only 2-3 in my life (I was a member here for years under another name but it was too obvious who I was so I changed it). One was very recent: a shot girl complaining she had to go topless if she did lap dances! WTF?? That's not a review, it's a personal gripe.

  ONLY if the reviews get DELETED.
