JimS you are 200% right. Just make it 2 letters, then all is good.

Another idea, just putting it out there, is that guys who offer substantial comments should get credit toward private viewing much the same as guys doing actual reviews. I would argue most of the self-policing of the community comes from a handful of older guys who have been in the hobby for decades. These can actually offer more salient guidance based on a review than the actual intel that comes from the original review. It’s like “supplementary wisdom”. I would argue also that without the refining comments deriving from each thread starter, the site will devolve into guys just writing fake reviews to see private details and providers writing fake reviews as free advertising. There are already more than enough posting sites infected with bots and scam artists. What made SH and what seems to be making this site the infrastructure of our community is the follow up discussion on each review.

I would respectfully suggest you give credit to the commenters that offer consistently important content to the community.

I’d like the ability to block others instead of just ignore, seems ignore prevents me from seeing other profiles but it still allows others to see mine or follow.

Review Date Entry Verification:
Perhaps the admin could/should add some date logic to the review input form to require a date and prevent future dates and dates more than 3/6/9/12 months prior? Doesn't prevent a reviewer from faking a date but I prefer ball-park info to no or bad info. And if bad info is provided, I'm sure others will call BS and report the review

3- Philly subs, philly, Lehigh Valley, Poconos, West PA
4- South Fla, central Fla, North West Fla
Ability to look up SPA reviews by phone # or name.

Ability to show my present location and link to spas known in that current location. Lord knows I used the hell outta that on the defunct site.

COMMENT: I like the providers posting here. Was surprised to see it but think it could be useful for everybody.

South east florida - Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach, all along Route 1, there are AMPs in almost every local strip mall. Some are on 5he second floor of the mall, some on the ground level. most often these ar3 in th3 lesser malls, i call 5hem the “local” malls, without the Publix, Wallgreens or CVS stores. you should add these listings to the site.

Hide posts after initial posts from searches?
As with Private Details, is there any way to hide follow up posts to and initial post from searches? I am a bit dismayed by follow-up comments to reviews that look for elaboration on Private Details exposing what had been hidden as Private. What was written as Private should stay Private and if additional details are sought then they should be discussed in Private Conversations.

Just my $0.02.
