searching reviews

[pierrot]

Is there a way to search the reviews by a reviewer's name? It's useful if there's someone who reviews under a particular name whose opinions you find are particularly in sync with yours. But I don't see a way to do it.

Reviewer Search

 

I do believe that on the HOOBOY SITE it could have been done.

 

But I'm not sure if it can be done any longer around here?

[whipped guy]

Yes!

 

Really NO!

 

 

BUT Yes! I recall someone did something to solve the problem... and I had it saved in my "favorites" under the old system... but it has disappeared under the new system... Hopefully someone can locate the thread where it told you how to do it!!!

[whipped guy]

Found it!

Thanks Raul!!!!!!!

Also miss being able to search by phone number.

 

Names may change, phone numbers rarely do.

An update?

 

I just noticed that my most recent review is not among those listed.

 

Perhaps Daddy could continue where Raul left off and update this feature as it most definitely is of value to be able to assemble and research the submissions of those reviewers in whom you trust because they seem to be in sync with your views and opinions.

Thanks Raul!!!!!!!

 

This is quite a list over the Years. It also reminds us of just how many guys have moved on since the Early Days of Hooboy! The Best to you all wherever you are now!

You can do this on Google.

 

Go to advanced search.

 

Enter the reviewer's name in the "All these words box". I used nycjockboy

 

Enter http://www.daddysreviews.com in the "Search within a site or domain box".

 

Hit "Advanced Search"

 

You can also enter the string directly in the main google box as:

 

nycjockguy site:http://www.daddysreviews.com

You can do this on Google.

 

Well that's pretty handy. Works great! Thanks for the tip bobchitown!

[whipped guy]

Google it!

 

You can do this on Google.

 

Yes! Thanks Bob... I have done that... but had completely forgotten that reviews can be accessed with a Google search... In fact one of my reviews for some reason had disappeared from the review section of the site but I was able to locate it using Google and inform the "powers that be" that it was temporarily lost in cyberspace... and it was duly reinstated.

 

It just goes to show anyone can find out anything about anyone... Perhaps that's one reason why I use a different moniker for the review section...

Lost Review!

 

Yes! Thanks Bob... I have done that... but had completely forgotten that reviews can be accessed with a Google search...

Mr Whip..It must have been of the utmost importance to make sure it was reinstated? Hopefully it wasn't for someone with 40-100 Others!

 

We do take our experiences very seriously at times don't we! But I'm thinking BDSM'ers even more so!

Reinstated Review

 

Well... JT... It was indeed a memorable experience... and so good that I returned for a repeat performance a week or so later. In addition, I had spent quite a bit of time and effort on the mere writing process... but most importantly it was the individual's first review. Consequently, I thought it would be the proper thing to do.

I fail to see the point in this. After a certain date those reviews are no longer viewable those reviews that are not readable are marked positive or negative so why bother with the search thing?

Reinstating is helpful

 

Yes, reinstating reviews is helpful, glad that whipped is doing it. Of "utmost importance" I am not sure -- but then neither your post nor mine is of "utmost important"!

 

Example of why reinstating is helpful: Someone wanted information on Simon, who had not been reviewed in a year -- but he had been reviewed because you can find it via Google but not listed under S or San Francisco here -- that review should be reinstated so we have it. Too bad others didn't take their experiences seriously enough to review Simon.

 

Even for an escort with many reviews, another review can be helpful, it might mention something I am interested in or give me some idea of the demographic that the escort serves. And, if nothing else, 50 or 70 positive reviews over several years tells me the guy is consistent!

Review Reinstatement

 

Yes, reinstating reviews is helpful, glad that whipped is doing it.

 

Ivan I wholeheartedly agree about reinstating reviews... As far as reviews that are very old and not available, it is my understanding that there are some procedural and practical reasons why they can't be retrieved. Still, given the current pricing, the more knowledge and facts that are available is all for the better.

 

However, in the case I cited above it was a relatively new review that somehow had disappeared inadvertently. All the more damaging since it was a first review and I wanted to make sure that good press was given where good press was due. Plus, I had put a certain amount of time and effort into it and felt that it was rather well written... hence another reason why I considered it to be worth the bother.

I missed the old reviews when they first went away. With the passing of time I don't really care any longer. They'd be intereting to read, but only to confirm more recent opinions. A 3-4 year old review gives you a general impression of a guy, but not really any useful current information. At this point I think they're water over the dam and its time to move on. I'm happy to know that there were earlier positive reviews - that's enought for me in combination with recent full reviews available.
