Review reviewers

I have been a member of TUSCL for over 18 years and have written 192 reviews. I have been able to keep my membership active by doing this. But recent changes seem to have changed that. Now our reviews are reviewed by a bunch of hacks that want a page of detailed sex or they reject your review. First I'm not going to document anything illegal. The cops read this page also, and that is what happened to Backpage and Craigslist. Second you only get a month of membership for a review so you have to go to a different club every month. I don't have enough close clubs or the time to travel to keep my membership going every month. So I guess I will just expire.............

And yes many confuse strippers with hookers on here.
But keep blaming everyone else for your own inability to clear a vault bar about three inches off the ground. Some grown men own their mistakes while some whine and blame others for their own failures - we know which one you are now.
You don't need anything illegal in a review to get them approved, and in Columbus you won't find much of that anyways. Most reviews are looking for a little about the layout of the club, the basic prices (cover, dances/vip and drinks) and a description of the types of dancers. This can usually be done in a paragraph or two.
As far as needing more clubs to post reviews of that shouldn't be an issue. You can get credit for reviewing the same club each month. Just wait until your 30 days is up to submit the new review. In Columbus Sirens is the only club worth frequenting on a regular basis in my opinion. But Club X, Columbus Gold and even Doll House can be decent alternatives if you catch them on a good night so try them or the other clubs in town on occasion and do a quick review to bank extra time for between your Sirens reviews.
Or do like I do and pay @founder for VIP access. The useful knowledge on here is well worth the cost and I am way too lazy to write reviews monthly.
That said - reviews are very useful. I personally just have a small collection of clubs and have nothing to add for Joe Public
They got decent intel. They are short. That's a plus.
The 'Not enough details' rejection reason does not relate to extras. Read the review guidelines. That should help.
I chose to limit my comment to the belief that what we're looking for is a Penthouse Forum letter.
I mean if you can't afford a membership of some kind then your to broke for the club's
Secondly, as I've posted in the past, IMO the giving of free VIP is a major catalyst for many of the shitty reviews submitted as many people write them primarily for their benefit of getting free VIP, vs writing them b/c they want to give info to others - not saying that there aren't folks that write reviews to get free VIP and also write good reviews, just that many write them just for VIP and put minimal effort so they can just get their VIP.
"... I stopped by Platinum Friday night after a good visit to Scarlett’s. In the past Platinum was my go-to club when I was in Toledo. Platinum had the same quality of girls with a little more lenient rules. So I get there at about 10:30 on Friday night. The cover was $10 and a Bud Light was $5. The place had a crowd but there were plenty of places to sit. I would say there were roughly 15 dancers and 15 guys in the club. I no more get my beer and they have a 2-4-30 dance special. To begin with nobody comes over, then finally a young cute, 18 is dancer comes over and to the back we go. She was real cute but here dance was lame. She really didn’t get the idea of the dance. But what the hell she was cute and it was only $30 invested. Then back to the table. So along comes this voluptuous Brazilian dancer. She says that she would do a 2-4-30 dance so into the back we go. This was the worst dance I have ever gotten out of 25 years of going to clubs. It was such an Air Dance that she got Altitude Sickness. Seriously most of the dance she was on her hands and knees crawling away from me and then would just shake her ass out in the hallway, (not even in the same cubical as me!!!). After that it was back to the table and along come a tatted up, pierced up, dancer that was real nice. We went in the back and she did a dance the way they are supposed to be. Worst time ever at Platinum, but I will probably give it another try ..."

This was a marginal review IMO - it was mostly about you vs it being more about the club - for instance:
* you didn't specify the dance cost (just the price of the special)
* you didn't describe the dancer-crew - just the girls you interacted with
* you didn't specify what is the typical mileage one should expect in that club
The review was more of a rant about you not having a good night, vs breaking down the club for someone unfamiliar w/ it that may want to check it out - your review read more like an entry for your journal, than a review of the club - it was more of a comment/lazy-review, vs a serious effort in describing the club.
Reviews should be about the club and what it has to offer from costs, to dancer-crew (looks, builds, ethnicity, ages, etc), to mileage available - not make the review of "I did this and I did that and me me me ..."
Ranting about dancers/dances doesn’t offer much useful info, as a lack of mileage can be due to many factors.
Try and make your reviews less about your unhappiness with dances, and more about the club. Think about what you would find useful in making your clubbing decision. If an unnamed Brazilian doesn’t give a great dance, does anyone care (beside the writer)?
IMHO most were light on useful information. Assuming one wanted more info than just your opinion of your visit.
I’m guessing fun guy is not an actual fun guy...
Read our review guidelines here.
Content and length are the two most important factors to consider.
Be wordy. Fill the review box. One or two sentence reviews aren't helpful to anyone.
Give a LOT of details in your review (club layout, atmosphere, dance quality, etc.).
Your review should be at least 4 solid paragraphs, with 4-7 sentences each.
One paragraph should describe the club vibe. Mention cleanliness, thug factor, music level, dj annoyance factor, lighting, etc.
Another paragraph should describe the dancers and their vampiness. How many were there? What ethicities did you see? Did they seem happy to see you?
A third paragraph should be about value. Don't say drinks, dances, cover charge, etc. were cheap or expensive. Tell us the actual costs!
At least one paragraph should summarize with three or four sentences describing why you would or would not return to the club.
Be honest. You can go into explicit detail of the private dances. Just be careful with names if you think it may get someone in trouble.
Spelling, grammar, and punctuation count. Do not use ALL CAPITAL LETTERS! When composing a review, spell check it.
Pro Tip 1: Think about what you would like to tell your good buddy about a place he's never been to.
Pro Tip 2: Think about the business traveler that is sitting in his hotel room with only time enough to hit one club in this new town. Let him know why he should or should not visit.
We have a zero tolerance policy for plagiarism. If we find out you submit a review as your own from another site, your account will be deleted.
When one is gonna add a review, there is a blue text that says "Read our review guidelines here" - that is a link and if you click on it it takes you to the review guidelines.
That's part of the problem - the review is not for you, it's for TUSCL and the readers that wanna know about that club - seems you have the wrong perspective about writing reviews in that they are for your benefit of getting free VIP and for your reading pleasure instead of all the other readers that need to know what the club is about.
