What makes you write a review?

I'll act nicer if you'll act smarter.
For the VIPs or once-VIPs here (putting this in the front room not to exclude the latter), what makes you decide you have enough to say to write a review?
Some people tend to frequent the same few clubs, and write detailed reviews for other regulars. Typically, we talk about changes at a club (in prices or dancers) and LD/VIP experiences with new (or new to us) dancers. Some of us even keep a document of club "boilerplate" to be updated with the full dancer roster. I fall into this category, and write whenever I have a new experience that hasn't been talked about.
Some go far and broad and customize their reviews to visitors. These typically have heavier "how to get here" and "how to recognize from the road" sections. They might have good intel about the dancer crop at one time, but won't have the dancer-by-dancer knowledge that comes from five visits over different shifts.
Others write the bare minimum to get a month's VIP. You can usually tell by reviews like "stopped in, had a beer, 10 girls mostly hot younger and white, got a couple $25 dances and called it a day," hoping for some of our ridiculously permissive reviewers. If this is you, you suck.

And fuck off cim
Time to write and something to talk about. I've had plenty to talk about lately and no time to write. Plus most of the notable visits I've had this year were with other TUSCLers there, so those get an automatic hold unless they say it's ok to put something in.
If I have the opportunity to visit a new club when traveling, I'll typically write a review of that club also.
I’ll write one if I had a particularly good/particularly bad experience.
I started participating on this site bc I was looking for info on clubs while traveling so sometimes I write one for girls like me who are looking for the same.
w.r.t. details vs experience-of-the-visit; I don’t think it’s either/or, I think both contribute to a good review – I do agree that repeating the same club details every time kinda sucks; but that mostly sucks for those that already know that info and no-one-really-knows what % of the readership that is – one would assume:
+ there are newbies joining TUSCL all the time
+ perhaps someone that reads TUSCL sparingly but either moves to a new area or plans to visit a new area and thus needs info on clubs unfamiliar to him etc
+ also, IME the club details in the club’s TUSCL-page are often either missing; incomplete; or erroneous (and seems a good % of TUSCLers seem to have no idea how to provide club-updates to the club’s TUSCL-page and a good % probably don’t wanna do it (probably the same ones that complain about having to repeat details) – I think there can be technical-upgrades to TUSCL that can make it easier to both capture and modify club-details in a club’s TUSCL-page so they don’t need to be repeated in reviews
So in-lieu of a good way to capture club details (would probably require @Founder to come up with a better solution that we have currently); is why I think it’s important to repeat key details – if details weren’t stressed, then the reviews would likely head in the direction where most reviews would not have the details not known to a certain (perhaps a high) % of the readers (and by details I don’t mean where the stage is located; by details most TUSCLers mean details like a good description of the dancer-crew; a good breakdown of the costs; good breakdown of the mileage available; etc).
I also get the sense that a fair # of reviewers, I assume often the younger-ones, are perhaps writing the reviews on their smartphones rather than a laptop/PC and why they may be more-adverse to adding more details.
+ I really enjoyed SCing – and as has been posted over-the-years, TUSCL offers a good way for us to share our PL-experiences where o/w most of us don’t have other avenues to do so – I’m also cognizant of how being informed can lead to much better SC-experiences and I think it’s good to fill-others-in that may not be as knowledgeable
+ I like good stories – either telling one, or listening-to/reading one – so I kinda enjoy writing the reviews vs doing it to get VIP or w/e
I find that tusclers seem to enjoy reading about my fiascos more than my successes, so I tend to write about those more often.
I agree with ICEE regarding the repetitive nature of "club details." I begrudgingly add those so as not to be down-voted.
Who really cares about the club layout or what the parking lot looks like.
One thing that gets to me is that most of the reviews aren't even describing fun times. Just the quest to get off and leave.
If something isn't fun or you're ashamed or have to hide doing it. It's not a hobby. It's a habit...
There's some stuff that guys need to figure out in the club on their own.
I don't understand guys who flame out when they get a review published but there's a couple of down votes. People have different tastes and standards, and that's how voting works. Unanimous decisions should be considered a rarity.
Also,it's not like this stuff is going on your LinkedIn...
I try to provide a full overview of the club and prices.
Each time I post a review, I get the same messages, as some numb nuts always wants to know the dancer name and price. I respond that I don’t remember names and the services were reasonably priced.
I get the same thing. I give roughly the same response.
Tell them to walk into the club with money lol. I wish I'd been smart enough to make up a reason to stay in NJ for a day last time I was on the East Coast. Those clubs are nuts.
