Hey dlcox

I gues you don’t know how “yelp” works so let me inform you. They call you about advertising and if you say no, “mysteriously” your good reviews “filter out”

See if this works… http://www.yelp.com/filtered_reviews/RDDTAK26_ttp5zqhE25tiQ?fsid=B5Gl3XC7it1sudLYWZ_U8A

FIFTY THREE (53) “filtered reviews”

Anyway, not only do your good reviews “mysteriously” get “filtered” but bad ones start showing up. And people start suggesting to you that if you pay some money these reviews might go away

Now, of course, some of these are “real” but you also have to remember that in this day and age everyone with internet access can whine like a petulant child when they feel wronged. Two people who wrote negative reviews took me to court AND LOST… they wanted a refund because they had never cancelled but never showed up. We cancelled them once they asked to be cancelled but we dont’ give refund just because you never got around to doing it sooner. AND THE JUDGE NOT ONLY AGREED WITH US, they ordered the other side to pay our legal costs…

Yeah right! Lol. You trying to be serious? Let me get this right. Those people are lying on an Internet site called yelp and you are refuting them and telling the truth on another Internet site?? :). I guess the Internet is full of liars.

Good job on the damage control though. You even posted your own links in defense. Meow, little kitten.

everyone just knew he couldn’t help himself LOL…

first we asked yelp to remove the review that called people “poor white trash”

They claimed that was an “editorial opinion” :rolleyes:

So we reached out directly to the person and said “you want to say you hated the workout, fine, just don’t use raciallly derogatory statements”

They responded asking us to give them money

We sent, via certified mail, that email and they ignored us

YELP just lost a lawsuit RE this, it is the tip of the iceberg

Oh ok. Damage control, damage control.

Let us keep track of when he posts because does he not have to leave and “teach” his classes eventually? Lol lol lol

Too bad you cannot erase all those bad reviews on yelp. You wish you could though.

If you can’t keep up with the conversation, let the adults talk :wink:

More than 100 people have posted excellent reviews of us on YELP

THey were just “filtered” :rolleyes:

http://www.yelp.com/filtered_reviews/pgUn05-EmNdGmLvo8wV5AQ?fsid=GpiBKhn_hQTKtXjko_GnRQ

There are 46 sites including YELP in the net where people can leave reviews. “Strangely” on the other 45 of them we have a 90% (or higher) approval rating…

The problem is, small minds can’t grasp basic concepts

That is the same thing san da fighters told you and your little band of Kung fu warriors.

Keep up the good work

YELP doesn’t want anyone to realize that there are THOUSANDS of “filtered” reviews on their site…

They had to create access to them because of three class action law suits

http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/yelp-moves-to-restore-user-trust-will-show-filtered-reviews/

A number of studies have shown that for “mysterious reasons” their filter process filters more positive reviews of those who don’t pay for advertising and more negative reviews of those who pay yelp for advertising

yes, it is “mysterous”

http://socialtimes.com/is-yelp-the-thug-of-the-internet_b133404#disqus_thread

A few points that should be highlighted

Over 600 complaints filed with the FTC allege that Yelp is acting like those guys in Brooklyn. The claims suggest that Yelp is intentionally filtering positive reviews for a business listed on their site, and soon after, Yelp’s sales staff calls that business to indicate those positive reviews could be restored … If that business were to purchase some advertising.

and

one party who had their positive reviews filtered went to the local press, and their positive reviews were suddenly restored.

like I said, things over there at YELP are “mysterious”

You are really damage controlling hardcore. Wow. If the reviews were not true you would not be trying so hard.

Another $1 for me and Gene Ching :smiley:

to be honest i’d not heard of the site before but read the links you put up and it’s shocking they can do that

also who the **** is spiked? seems like he’s just hit puberty or something :o

Yelp is a fraud when things are negative for the dirty schooled fat pervert who runs ny sanda. If all the reviews had been positive and were bringing a lot of leads to his school he would be in love with yelp. LOL. Hypocrisy.

you’re gaining new fans by the minute

and, yes, I created all those internet articles about YELP’s fraud and unethical practices (/sarcasm)

Are you this sad that you have to repost the same thing in two threads? Where are all the fighters you claim to train? Oh yeah, I forgot the real coaches are renting space from you and training them in your facility.

Do those coaches know you are taking credit for their work? Or is it in their contract that the people they train are “NY Sanda” fighters and since you own ny sanda by proxy they are your fighters.

wow. I just figured out your business model. You are like Tiger Schulman except he really has skills.

LOL… you come on like a comic book…

I guess it DOES bother you that other forum members have seen through your act, despite your claim just a minute ago that you don’t care :smiley:

You’re a classic example that some people think that they can just say the same thing over and over again and people will believe them…

But, really, no one is buying it, time to move on…

Maybe get out of that basement and get some fresh air :stuck_out_tongue:

i think he might be one of your coaches lol seems to have a chip on the old shoulder

can’t you take it up in person spiked? keep the forum nice and free from bellends :cool:
