Everything I’ve read, and I read them all, seems real. Variety of experiences, nothing is just empty praise. This is the best forum I’ve found for THC is why I’ve dumped my collection of experience ...
This is a tricky issue. This is a huge Forum, so it's hard to really follow what the various users are up to, but my observation from our NZ forum is that newbies are often triggered to join and write something because they had a great experience (or a crap one). Their first post(s) may sound a little too glowing (or brutal) to the more experienced members, but they are genuine and the information is not seriously misleading.
The issue that is being raised here is that of completely made up reports. This can be an issue on any forum. Here's the latest of a bunch of reviews for a particular shop in NZ that definitely seem faked, and were called out: https://www.adultforum.co.nz/auc ... riends-mt-eden.html (scroll to the bottom for "Similar Threads" to see some of the others). In this case it is one user who did almost nothing to interact - no questions, no posts outside these review threads.
How to tell the difference? It's tricky, but I'd look at whether the users do anything but post glowing reviews. Lack of interaction with the community is a bad sign. |
