I have been doing this for some years now. Not too too many, but a while. It's only been since FOSTA that I have become so active on this forum. For a long time I used my common sense, street smarts, detective skills and good old fashion gut instinct to determine what was real, fake, safe, dangerous, cop, not, etc. Etc. I've always done pretty well if I may say so myself. Backpage was a good thing. It really really was. A good thing for everyone in this game, including the girls. It gave them a somewhat safe and reliable platform to advertise and build business. It allowed them to filter through the bullshit just the same as it allowed us. I remember scanning ads based on my location. All the ads used to have a general location next to the headline. I would click on everything based on where I was / was going to be and filter from there. After a little while I became familiar with nuanced advertising styles. I could spot the spam before even clicking on a post. I could spot the difference between a Chinese parlor that gave massage with HE and a Korean joint that provided FS. Just by the way they posted. I could tell a fake pic from a real one and guess what? I could even tell which ads to stay way the fuck away from so I wouldn't get robbed or arrested.
Now everything is FUCKED. But not completely fucked. Skip the games, while not perfect, is by far the best replacement to BP. It's still somewhat obvious who's spamming and who's not. The thing that's much more difficult to navigate is the mindset and quality of the women who are posting. These changes have brought all of the desperate and insane people out of the woodwork. FOSTA has also caused providers who had a great thing going more unsure and unstable. I've always been a spa and a BP guy, but the last few months have seen me turn more to the SW game. Again, common sense and recon have kept me safe so far, but things are pretty shaky all over right now.
I guess my point is, this forum has provided me with a safe place to share and gather intel. It truly is a great resource and I've leaned on it heavily since the apocalypse of pussy. We all, and by all I mean providers too, need a certain level of transparency and communication with each other. Honesty and free information helps to create a healthy community and that's what we all want. I've had a fucking 9 mm in my face from behind a bathroom door, and I've also had some of the most erotic, wonderful sexy moments of my life with some of the coolest down to earth chicks ever in my time with this hobby. All I want is more of the latter. I'm happy to have a place like this to post and gather info. I understand why people get upset with "takers" who only ask questions and don't share, but sharing can make you feel vulnerable in the beginning.
All I'm saying is if we all just give a little, we could have an even greater community than we've already got. We need each other's help now more than ever before. That is exactly why we're all here after all.

It's just sad in many ways what FOSTA has done. I am very surprised it has had the effect on the users of the forum to such a large extent!

Noticed their rates have gone from 275 all the way up to 500 in some cases and the selection and quality has all but deteriorated.
Not happening here.

Since they just simply stopped using the forum, they may be gone for good. If that is the case, all the forum can do is be patient and wait for new members to join and build it up all over again. Sounds painful though.
Here is a big reason that might explain what is going on. The backpage replacements really suck big time. Almost every ad on onebackpage are phishing scams just after duping men into sites to give out their credit cards to 'so called' age verification websites. Some are real ads though. But they are the same old that post mostly or only there. Total wast of time. Yesbackpage is newer, but also sucks. What few people that post on this forum seem mostly to put links here to skipthegames. IMAO, it's the only one worth using. But even it is very annoying to use. Just a huge collage of pictures. Some of the women post way too many pictures and over post, even a few times in the same day. Too many of them don't pay attention to the activities that they select, some just select them all. That only puts themselves at risk. For example, an overly aggressive monger can get mad because of the provider's unwillingness to do anal even though their ad said so. But, that is their own doing. So, the site is quite annoying to use. I even mention one poster stating they were having difficulties maneuvering the new sites. So, it is not hard for me to see why there are fewer posters here.
This all has had a big impact to even the good providers out there. What I am hearing from Milana and Samantha Jean is that business is significantly down. While Milana went UTR some time ago due to bad experiences with having done doubles, she relies on referrals to get new clients. With such limited activity on the forum, there have probably been next to no referrals. Even with regulars, providers still have to have the travelers, and the want to try ones in hopes to acquire more regulars to replace regulars who stop due to moving away or whatever. It's crucial to their business to do so. Samantha told me she has only had calls from regulars.
So, the point is that FOSTA has just put a sour taste in the mouths of everyone. Really Sucks!
They don't call it the worlds oldest profession for nothing. Prohibition never works, none of the chicks that were on Backpage got PHd's and went to work for NASA. Not that some couldn't, just saying they didn't.
The rent still needs paying, they still gotta buy shit for their crappy boyfriends and they didn't get jobs. Now, more than ever, the forum is important.

PS, before some idiot says it, no, nothing you post here can lead our least favorite uncle to the chicks. They know before you do and everything here is hearsay. We know that because after 2,000,000 posts and nearly 20 years, nothing on this forum has ever been used in court.

I'm getting tired of it as well, I took away his ability to send and recieve PM's.
However, you don't get to say that the forum is going downhill because people don't post enough WHILE you're talking about not posting as much.
Can you smell what I'm cooking?

EDITOR'S NOTE: This report was edited or deleted because it appeared to be a public effort to discourage members from posting information. If you have a concern about information posted by another member, then please contact them privately by PM. Please read the Forum's Posting Guidelines for further information.
Plus you lost your ability to send and receive PM's. Hows that for not "posting on the open forum?"
I've started doing this for a bunch of guys who seem to think we are running a private messaging service.

And between their facebook pages and other information I could find, I have had additional information to help me decide if I wanted to pursue them or not. So, there has been valuable for me to do this.
