There's a sugar newb (*but Sr. Member) asking for advice here
[QUOTE=ProJohn1;6536358]Yes. I want a non pro. I see what you mean now. I was kind of under the impression it was more or less the standard that they would all have a PPM. So there are total non pros on there still? That's good news. It's hard to tell from the ads right. I hear the horror stories about all the bots and shit. Sometimes it seems to good to be true some of these beautiful woman who are "going to college" etc.[/QUOTE]I got all my best advice from Darkhosis ;) . And I'm not the one seeking advice, btw.
Sugar is time-consuming. And it's partly a numbers game. So many of the girls are just flakes, and terrible communicators, so you kind of have to cast a wide net. Which can backfire. You'll need to be organized and keep track of their details. They hate when you're ignoring something they already told you. Most of them are mentally unsound. Actually, I think we all are.
Sometimes, you get lucky and within hours, you're on a date with intimacy. Usually an exception. The best quality relationships I've developed took weeks to get to a first date. But if you haven't set up a burner phone number account, you should. There's plenty of risk involved, so protecting your identity can be important. Blackmail is a *****.
Also, the site will permanently ban you if you get caught discussing any kind of intimacy with the notion of compensation. The moment you see the "PPM" or similar language on the site's messaging, you need to move that conversation offsite. They don't just ban your account from both Seeking and WYP, but your IP address, and MAC (machine) address, I think. It happened to a friend. I had to create an account for him, he paid me for the subscription, and has to use VPN to access it. I took the risk, but it worked.
Other advice: Don't make an offer purely on texting. They'll probably refuse you if they want a certain amount that's above your threshold. Your goal should be to meet them first, establish chemistry and connection, then negotiate. It helps if you get them a couple of drinks first. At least that's what works well for me. I've negotiated plenty of intimate first dates without meeting first, but I've found much better success having a lunch or drinks then graduating the tension to intimacy. DM if you like. Happy to dispel terrible advice.
Mentally unsound? That is a very polite way to put it!
[QUOTE=KnoxNenters;6536498]Most of them are mentally unsound.[/QUOTE]No shit. I've got an ex SB (from about ten years ago) who at random intervals blows up my phone and email with fairly extravagant threats unless I pay her insanely huge sums of money. I just tell her to go ahead and do whatever she wants to do and block the numbers and email. As far as I can tell she is now homeless and whenever she gets or steals a phone she starts shaking people down.
A few months ago she was on a tear. I gave some of the emails to the local cops. Their reaction, and I quote, was, "what a whackjob!" Of course they didn't do anything.
Tip: Avoid Getting Banned from SA
[QUOTE=ProJohn1;6535625]I am a newbie in the SD game. Can anybody give me some basic pointers on what I should include in my first message and also does my profile really matter? I would rather get straight to the point and not do endless messaging with some time waster which from casual reading seems to be a common thing. How do I know the girl is serious? [b][color=red]Do I just simply straight up ask her what her PPM is in the first message?[/color][/b][/QUOTE]DUDE! [u]NEVER and I mean [b]NEVER[/b] talk about PPM, allowance or any kind of money talk on the SA site![/u] Period! You do that and you violate the TOS, the BOTs that scan every message will catch you and you will get banned! Talk general stuff and get her to agree to communicate offsite where you can discuss PPM or allowance. Most of the time the best advice is save that discussion for a Meet & Greet (M&G) for several reasons.
First scammers, rip-off artists and Pro's aren't going to waste time with M&Gs. Never agree to pay for a M&G as this is in essence a 'job interview. ' Asking for funds for a M&G is a sure sign of a rinser.
Second, despite what I have seen others post, this isn't totally socially acceptable nor on the right side of things. As such, do you wish to leave a written record of your PPM negotiations with a girl? Don't talk PPM or sex for money through text, etc.
Finally, the best "education" one can get comes from what is / was the defacto (first & only) SB board / thread in Richmond VA. A kind dude or two scraped that thread and created a new one with all of the best advice on "how to" sugar date. More info than one can absorb in one sitting but a PhD level of knowledge there. Just like any skill, you get out of Sugaring what you put into it, time wise.

But seriously, if you are looking for the real LT, intimate Sugar Dating experience, one needs to distinguish them self from the numbnuts and Neanderthals who send dick picks, treat girls like prostitutes or think these girls are just an upgrade to escorts. In other words if your focus is purely "PPM and move on to the next", then one should be playing in the escort area. Then again, more guys who treat girls badly, just makes it easier for those of us who play the game right.
Get verified, then get your age changed back
Life pro tip. Works for both SA and WYP.
Problem: When I first created my account on SA, I lied about my age, figuring I'd land in searches more if I picked a younger number. It was all well and good until I decided to get verified. Boom! Suddenly I was 13 years older, and all my contacts could see that my age changed. I was regretting it. I eventually closed my account to stop sugar for a while (for other reasons).
When I created my new account, knowing this age / verification issue, I used generic images with no face, a lame description just to get the account established. The age was accurate, and I purposefully made the guy poor, with little net worth. That was so I could see who would still take interest. It was an eye opener! I was only using it in the free mode to slowly get back into sugaring. When I decided to go premium, several things happened. Including getting my account suspended.
I changed too many things at once when I started spiffing up my profile to go real again: income / net worth, images, descriptions. I even used a couple of AI images I generated that resembled me as a sort of joke. It was too much for the bots, and my account got suspended within minutes. So I engaged support, and they got me back on track, but I was able to keep my AI images as part of the unhidden images, with my real images being private (they resemble each other, and I only show a half-face with the AI images. I do not recommend).
I used that opportunity during account suspension and support follow-up to ask if there was a way to avoid having my age change once I'm verified and found out they will issue a "one-time" change of age request after getting verified.
Solution: get verified, then request support to change your age to whatever makes the most sense for you. They will do that.
Some of you have issues with the verification process. I find it helps ease the conversation more. Who knows for sure? The bigger issue I am having now that I'm live and unhidden briefly for two cities is filling in the gap of 13 years once the convos get involved. Not a big deal, but a little dishonesty can cause more issues later, so YMMV.
