Editing Talk:958: Hotels

I hardly ever visit the same place twice, so I'd have to give hotels bad reviews ahead of time so that I get lower prices when I get there. Hell, why doesn't Black Hat do that? That way, he can avoid paying full price on his first visit to the hotel, which is what he wants, isn't it? The dishonesty of writing a bad review before he visits shouldn't be a deterrent to a person like him, so why not?

How did cue ball find out he liked it. Although it is only one person, knowing him directly gives him extra influence. I would say it is about the amount of influence of a review.--[[Special:Contributions/173.245.54.36|173.245.54.36]] 02:02, 15 February 2014 (UTC)
: Cueball seems to be friendly enough with Black Hat, so quite likely Black Hat simply mentioned that to Cueball before. [[User:Arifsaha|Arifsaha]] ([[User talk:Arifsaha|talk]]) 19:51, 21 November 2014 (UTC)
: While lying to Cueball about the quality of a hotel would reduce the overall demand, it is unlikely that both Black Hat and Cueball would both be travelling to the same city over the same date range, effectively meaning they are not competitors.  Furthermore, if they were travelling together it is more likely that they would share a room, rental car or other resource, so having Cueball know his preferences benefits Black Hat.

Is the title text a reference to a scene in a horror movie? [[User:Arifsaha|Arifsaha]] ([[User talk:Arifsaha|talk]]) 19:51, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

-:Because he doesn't know how good the hotel will be yet. [[User:Beanie|Beanie]] ([[User talk:Beanie|talk]]) 13:05, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

-:Highly unlikely, unless you can actually find a horror movie that incorporates those elements (I really hope you can't) -Pennpenn [[Special:Contributions/108.162.250.162|108.162.250.162]] 02:59, 4 March 2016 (UTC)
-"Confirmed buyer" tags exist. Maybe Black Hat thinks that reviews without that tags wouldn't be convincing enough to be effective.
-On the tragedy of You-are-a-dick: this is the real Tragedy of the Commons. Indeed quite different from Black Hat's tragedy of you-are-a-dick. My uni has a well-drawn version of this image on posters all over.
