it's petty, and it won't move the needle, but i find it highly enjoyable
“For Yelp to remain a useful resource to the community, reviews must be based on a genuine, firsthand experience with the business,” Noorie Malik, Yelp’s vice president of user operations said in a statement.
I would encourage you all to go take a closer look at Yelps business model. They are the most useless thieving rat shit company of all time.
They tried to steal from me in a recorded conversation, doubled down, then when they found it was recorded, tripled down because they knew no one would do shit.
Fuck anyone who willingly works there, and especially fuck anyone in their C-suite.
- Oh man.
  This sounds like this shitty "Chamber of Commerce" we have in my city.
  They're a non-profit, and they publish a directory for local businesses.
  I find it infuriating because if they didn't exist, nothing of any value would be lost. But because they do exist, you need to pay to be listed in their book, or else you'll miss out on some customers.
  I stopped paying for the listing many years ago because obviously I don't want customers that need to look things up in a phone book, but they still grind my gears.
  
  “Chamber of Commerce”
  Chamber of Republicans, in my town.
  
  Very similar, yelp is like a Mafia protection on steroids version of that. They will actively hide your company if you do not pay.
  
  Man that sucks. A Chamber of Commerce ought to do much more than that. For instance, ours has always been a great resource for us. Frequently it's networking events and such, but if we ever need anything, they find the people to help. When we needed capital they figured that out for us too. Our CoC has been an amazing partner for four years now and I highly doubt we'd ever consider leaving.
  
  But... If you scored some business by being listed there, they're not totally useless?
  Yes, the BBB model needs to die, but get customers however you can.
- Can you expand on this story? Super curious.
  
  They extort companies for placement and reviews. It has 0 credibility.
Hope the place gets shut down. No one should eat there no more. Just stop eating over priced cheap shit from McDonald's.
- Just go there and waste their time. Order ice cream. You know the machine isn't working.
- but that chicken big mac looks good tho.
  
  Stay strong brother.
- No kidding! I never eat there unless the mcrib is in town and I eat like a damn pig. Man it's so good. Boycot up until then I say!
  
  My local gas station has one that's 5X better and is cheaper.
  
  My boycott ends when they sell weird garbage, instead of regular garbage.
  
  mcrib, eat like a damn pig
  Is this cannibalism?
Yelp still exists!?
Who is finding a McDonalds location on their phone's map app and then thinking "I'd better cross-check this against Yelp first"!?
- Probably more people now.
  
  The answer is nobody.
  Nobody is using Yelp to decide if McDonald's is for them.
Trump plays "worker" for a few minutes. McDonald's gets e coli. Coincidence? (Best read in the smarmy voice of Tucker Carlson or Jesse Waters.)
Lmao McDonalds doesn't care about yelp reviews you don't eat at Mcdonalds seeking fine dining, you eat there because it's 2 am and you're hungry on a roadtrip or whatever.
- Not McDonald's - but I visited a city recently and looked up KFC on Google reviews to see what people were saying about the place, most of the reviews were negative saying how dirty the place was, so I didn't go.
"Worked"
I'm sure they are hurting real bad.
What a worthless waste of energy.
