Think about it though. If you were a tourist or someone that rarely goes out and you Googled Calgary downtown pubs and one had a a string of negative reviews, wouldn't you avoid it or look for one that didn't? It might not affect the regulars, but it certainly hurts getting new business.

There are actually reputation companies people hire to improve their online google, yelp and urban spoon ratings.
