Proper etiquette for posting new reviews of clubs you've reviewed previously

  The standard for VIP credit is 4 weeks between reviews for same club. In clubs that I've frequently visited, I try to incorporate reports from different shifts to give readers an idea of what to expect at different times. I can see an infrequently reviewed club whereby over half the reviews on the page are from the same reviewer can be a bit of a drag, but nobody said that rules/standards are perfect. If it frosts your balls that someone can get a years worth of VIP by submitting 13 reviews on same club, well tough shit.

  I'm one of those contributors that posts multiple reviews of the same clubs. I don't travel out of town too often so I gotta get my VIP time anyway I can get it. I'd say a review every month isn't gonna make anyone mad, unless your reviews are straight up club ads cough mdb2203 cough. If you notice any changes since last month mention them. And stick to the standards for reviews and you should be good.

  My favorite club has more reviews than any other club and my VIP status is good until Oct 2026 but I still review it every couple of months just to let my friends know that I'm still kicking and nothing has changed.

  I would say 2 to 3 months is ideal unless there is something new to report sooner (new management, significant dancer turnover, renovations)

  I go on the rule of    " do I have something new to report" .    If I learn something new about the club,  or something has changed.   New rules,  construction,   drop off in talent,  newly implemented specials.  Then I'll post the new information as a Review.     But I don't post Reviews to get free VIP.   I'm a Lifetime Member anyway so I don't need the Free VIP.

  I'll put multiple trips into one review if I go to a club that's not getting a bunch of reviews. I try to balance my need for VIP status over spamming the board.

  The clubs I go to the most are the ones I review the least. I can't even keep up with the new clubs I visit.

  But to answer the question, I don't care how much a TUSCLer reviews the same club. Readers will decide if the posts have value or not.

  For things like layout I refer them to an older review of mine. Give an idea how often you visit or a once only stop. Reporting prices, especially changes, is important. Comments on individual dancers, are basically worthless with their turnover rate. Always let others know your reason for going. Just stopped by after work. Met other TUSCLers. Whatever.

  To me each visit is unique and reviewable if I feel there's something worth sharing. Me liking variety vs getting with the same dancer(s) means it's a unique visit/experience even of the same club, not to mention the healthy dancer turnover at my clubs. For me personally a review is more than just the club details; for me it's mostly about the experience along with the club details.

  Just because you know that nothing has changed since your last review 3 months ago doesn't mean that the readers do. IMHO you should review a club as often as you want. Just make the effort to confirm the specific details (prices, crew, etc.), even if they have not changed. I have a few clubs that I review once every 6 months or so and I make sure to update or confirm what I previously posted.

  Depends on the club and how often it’s reviewed. Try and provide new info if possible. If nothing has changed and you are confirming so, maybe wait a bit between reviews or at least try and make your review entertaining and readable.
