Great!! Sorry that I didn't figure this out by myself. Users like me are probably the reason guys like you make the big bucks (;-)
Thanks again Rick. I look forward to consulting your site in the future.

Thanks for the reply Rick. OK, I think that I understand you and I accept that you are dedicated to helping users find sites that will appeal to them.
The only point that I made that I think you might have missed was the one in which I suggested that the site be ranked by the user rater's scores only and not by your appointed reviewers. I referred to amazon.com which rates their products by the number of purchases that have been made by customers on their site. They provide professional reviews but list the reviews by the number of 'stars' that their customer/reviewers assign to the products not by an arbitrary ranking by their staff. These reviews then become 'owned' by their users (a good thing for both users and site owners I believe).
I wish you and your staff the best and hope that you provide us 'porn users' with a useful service. This will of course be based upon your service getting it right when pointing us to the 'good' sites and not keeping us away from sites that we might prefer by giving us bad advice. That means that you and I have the same goal and I'm just asking a question about implementation.
Cheers,

Your News
I appreciate your attempt to make scoring more representative of reality but there is a downside to this as well. I reviewed a site specifically because I thought that the official review was dated if not 'way off the mark.' I am not a professional critic nor do I wish to become one. Just browsed your site and found a review that I really disagreed with. I did a review of my own in order to right what I considered a review that could mislead viewers and cause them to not consider a site that I considered the best of its' kind.
If viewers continue to read all reviews and not just go with the official score there will be no problem. But if viewers read an official score and take it as reason to steer away from a site that is 'best of class' then I believe that it defeats the reason for your site.
Perhaps official scores should be given in a commentary form only and the official score left to the customer reviewers (the Amazon model). It wouldn't be perfect but probably better than the alternative. If you find an obvious shill deal with it directly.
Good luck. I'll be looking to see if your reviews help me or not in the future.
