The Rat Trap

Anyone ever see that Family Guy episode where they parody the Brokeback Mountain movie? Two horses talking to each other at sunrise outside a tent and one wonders why the cowboys aren't up. One horse peers into the the tent and sees one cowboy banging the other in the ass and freaks out? That's pretty much what I feel like every time see the Rat Trap. I like Rat Trap because it moves bullshit off other threads although it drastically inflates post counts about useless shit so more due diligence is needed when you get PM's from strangers and can't rely on post count alone but need to review their post history. Used to be 75 posts was pretty cool and meant many months if not a year to get, but now that can be reached in weeks and maybe full of bullshit. Guess there is a happy medium there somewhere, and it's definitely cool that the Rat Trap is getting the endless bitching off the other threads and back to more of their intended purpose, but as always it's hard to balance the ying and the yang.

Now most counts are on the rise more from bickering than actually reporting pussy. If it wasn't more work for A2, I would like to see a post count only increase if a monger is reporting a dream. If it isn't a dream involved or directly related to info about pussy then the post count shouldn't increase. Still, if the need arises to call out a monger, do so but the post count should not increase. Quantity of post counts don't mean shit when you talking about bull shit. Quality should be what counts which is what I use to base whether or not a monger is considered, "trusted".

[QUOTE=LuvInIt007;2225398]Hey I have great idea lets start a thread called "positive escort reviews" it would have all positive reviews that all can read. Would that be of help? Come on man! RTFF just like everyone else has. If you don't have the time to read and contribute you are in the wrong place and you will probably get something your not asking for. Knowledge is power and there is a wealth of info here you just have to read it. Just my 2 common sense.[/QUOTE]Great Idea, lets think about that for a second. There are over 6000 posts in that section, if on average each post takes 30 seconds to read it would take over 50 continuous hours of reading to get through it all. Maybe you have time for that but as a self employed small business owner I don't. On the car sites I frequent we have a top 20 1/4 mile thread and HP thread, why not have something like that with a voter link. Could be very helpful, but I understand. No point in making suggestions and evolving the forum to better the community.

[QUOTE=Swaganna;2225213]ET is not being a poser or troll. He provides knowledge and safety tips as well as educates us with the different laws. There are many ways to be a contributing member of this forum Sir.

Swaganna.[/QUOTE]I had not thought of it that way. To me, the info he posts is common sense and if you read back through the years you will see the legal and safety issues have been discussed at great length and these are just re-posts of other posts, but from time to time it is good to be reminded of certain things. It is just hard for me to understand why a guy with no interest in the women of Orlando would write almost 1,000 posts in this forum. Maybe its just me, but I find that a little creepy and along with his condescending attitude, that makes him a shady character. Your post is a refreshing alternate POV from my own and it could be that some find value in his posts.

Not trying to be nasty to you, Just telling you like it is. Most of the seniors on this forum require that you have some good legit reviews posted and that you read for information other wise the seniors are not going to constantly be answering your questions and giving you info on providers in return because you do not have time to read & post reviews. It's a trade off for intel that's the way it works. So if you are not willing to take the time to do this and you still want some pussy then your choices are to go to the classifieds section and pick a girl from there or go down on the trail and pickup a girls there. As long as you understand this then everything will be good.

Bottoms Up! & Having Fun!

You have to do more research than dreaming. This is why SM keep telling you to RTFF. It is not meant to be an azzhole. The info has been put out there for your safety to keep you out of silver bracelets, beat down or killed by management, or things to teach you about this lifestyle. If you do not have time to RTFF you are not going to last on this board or in this lifestyle. WE have done so much collectively on this board, spent countless hours researching, and spent a ton of money dreaming. The least you can do is RTFF.

I go back and read the post from new guys who have now recently become SM recently. Do this, go back and research the posts of "makinhersquirt". This guy didn't come on this board with his hand out asking for info. However many times he has posted, 98% of his post are about dreams. He has hit the ground hard and running. His method of research is astounding. Some of his selections you may not personally like but he is dreaming and reporting more than anyone right now. Get some advice from him. Learn some techniques and it will keep you safe and I think the quickest way to earn some respect and trust from us. Like the great C3 said, "how do we know you aren't dipping your powdered covered donuts in coffee while reading our advice. ".

Until you contribute something other than excuses for not reading the fucking forum I personally will not acknowledge nothing you have to say. Not being a dick but that's how it goes around here.

Good luck,

Just my. 02.

Perhaps A2 could modify the "Add a Report" tab to have two options, "Add a Review" or "Add a Comment". That way each member would have both a "reviews count" and a "comments count". As a group we can monitor / flag whether a post is really a review or just a comment or some other bs. If we did that you could better note which members actually contribute reviews. Understood that some comments are very useful, especially to newbies but everyone needs to ante up every once in a while. Just my 2 cents.

Don't get me wrong, I know there is value in the forums, otherwise I wouldn't be here. I don't think having a list like the one I suggested would take any value away from the forums, but only add to it.

It's not all fun, but It's not always just about the pussy either.

Sometimes I PM with ladies I have not seen, and we share opinions on various topics. However, if I did not visit any ladies in Orlando, then I would not read or be a member of this forum. Why would I want to? I understand that others have different ways of doing things, but I kind of agree more with Quillino, in that you have to ante up once in a while. See a lady in the area and share the info on the board of your own personal experience. You and I both do that and so do most of the mongers on here. ET has almost 1,000 posts and has not ever contributed that kind of personal review intel. To me that seems very odd, but Savanna made a good point that some might consider his general info valuable. I guess we could think of ET a bit like Constant Blue, who does not hobby either.
