Yelp = the Evil Thing in the World.
Hello Dear Readers,
BELOW YOU WILL SEE PROOF THAT YELP IS A SCAM.
At the office we have one thing we never speak of. We all know not to talk about it, because it's the game we can't win. That game is the Yelp game.
Here is how it's played.
OBJECTIVE: Keep a 4 Star Rating
RULES: You can't post reviews yourself. Yelp filters all reviews 4 stars and above unless it's done by a Yelp Eliter.
HOW THE GAME WAS PLAYED: We run 100,000 customers and hope that all of them have a 5 star evening and all enjoy the same meal. If anybody doesn't and they post a negative review regardless of their rank or if they've ever posted before it sticks forever. If anybody posts a positive review they filter it (their verision of removing it).
HOW YOU WIN: You don't. EXAMPLE: Chicago 38 reviews that are 5 stars, 1 reviews that is 4 stars, 2 reviews for 3 stars, 1 reviews that is 2 stars, 3 reviews that are 1 star. Our average is.... drum roll 2 STARS! How? Well, 38 reviews that are 5 stars are FILTERED!
WHY IS THIS GAME PLAYED? After a lot of research it's because Yelp filters positive reviews for the people that don't choose to advertise with their website. We have been called declined their advertising and as if by magic ALL of our positive reviews are filtered! Am I being paranoid? CHECK THIS WEBSITE OUT IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME!
If you support us or want to help me in this fight. Search The Murder Mystery Company in Yelp! at the location you're closest to.
Thank you and sincerly SCREW YOU YELP!
