[QUOTE=BackInSea;6873012]I've always said that providers in the US, especially here in Seattle, are some of the most expensive with the least amount of ROI. I've been to TJ, Costa Rica, Seoul, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Macau, Taipei, and Tokyo and most of those girls were cheaper, hotter, and had better service. Even in Singapore, which is one of the most expensive cities in the world, I was able to find some great girls for half the price than Seattle....
[/QUOTE]Why is everything so shitty here?
[QUOTE=FlyingGolfball;6873451]No one in TNA talks about this page so naturally, if TNA Is the first one finds out, one doesn't know any better. I used to be one of them. One of the fellow mongers introduced me to AMP then from Reddit, I found this place and now this is all I visit (+rmap). TNA Is such a joke with crazy providers ranging from 4. To 1 K per hour. Urgh.[/QUOTE]There's a thread there about BBFS and this place is referenced there primarily. Leave a comment there and watch your name pop up on ignore lists. The best part is probably about 3/4 of the providers there offer some sort of bb service, with probably half offering BBFS. But that the big bad topic there that everyone acts like they don't partake in.
[QUOTE=SkeletonKey6;6876035]Why is everything so shitty here?[/QUOTE]Things have been shitty here for whoring as long as I have been at it. Honestly whenever something comes along that is decent it gets cracked down on pretty hard, either by the cops or other people in the business. Same effect either way.
I remember in the 90's when 95 percent of the escort ads in the Stranger were blatant ripoffs. Also in the early 90's there were dozens of MPs (mostly white girls) on 99 south of the airport to the Pierce county line, some of which were decent. They were all pretty efficiently shut down over about a nine month period.
Why? Mostly because Seattle is still small town in a lot of ways and there always has been a kind of stuffy disapproval of anybody getting freaky.
Go at this crap for a few years and you will see some fucked up shit. Here are some good ones:
1. Long ago I was at an AMP (that is still in business) and getting down on it when two of the other girls decided it was a good time to have a serious fight. So while I was fucking I was hearing stuff break and getting slammed into walls. They hit the door to the room I was in so hard it bulged in and broke -- we had to take the hinges off to get out of the room. Got to love Euro Touch.
2. Once I called one of the few reliable and decent agencies they sent me a pretty cute (but very young and inexperienced) girl. So we are getting comfortable and she excuses herself to go to the bathroom. I thought that was fine. Well she locked herself in the bathroom and was bawling like a baby. I called the agency and after some back and forth the madam came out to my apartment and after several hours were able to talk her out of my bathroom and out of my apartment. I never called that agency again.
3. There was a pretty hot escort from another agency who I sometimes saw. One night at about 3 am I heard her pounding on my door demanding to be let in. She was dressed in leather boots and a leather bikini (it was February). Apparently she had been at some kind of party down the road that had been busted and she had somehow bolted, but without her street clothes or car keys. She wanted me to call someone or take her somewhere and I was like, "Fuck no". So I let her stay the night. In the morning I bought some sweats and flip flops in her size, more or less dressed her, and gave her a ride back to her place. Never heard any details on WTF exactly happened.
4. After that I got smart and stopped getting escorts to my apartment. So one time at a hotel I had takeout and this girl conked out (completely asleep) after fucking. I couldn't wake her up. I called the agency and was told 'she did that sometimes' and that to just let her sleep it off. So I did but didn't realize that she would wake up not knowing where she was or what had happened. Which made for an exciting 4 am.
So weird shit does happen.
[QUOTE=PyroJinx;6875834]I was out cruising last night on AA and ran into a girl who I've dated once previously and still chat with from time to time. We were talking about the whole BBBJ scene and politics on aurora and she told me about how she did a date once with a guy who wore surgical gloves, a mask and Two condoms! By his own free will. She told me he came really fast too! She told me she was deadass serious. I was dying of laughter. One of the funniest dates I've ever heard of.[/QUOTE]That no me. I not only one that cum. Fast.

[QUOTE=BackInSea;6872756]I haven't been on TNA in awhile, but I hopped on recently just to see if there was any new talent worth seeing. WTF is with these prices? So apparently it seems like $500 is the new standard for girls wanting to just lay there and be a blow-up doll ("Don'ts" include almost everything under the sun). There is one girl in Portland that is charging $800 and it's no GFE.[/QUOTE]There must be fellas paying that! Wow! I won't do 400 for safety. I got one here on the east that I give 3-400 and at least I get to eat her pick puss for 30-40 minutes. She's reliable as hell, for now. She's reluctant about raw yet, but my head did touch the meat hangers the other day. She's thin with a great booty. Perhaps fellas just don't know or get so horny they just pay whatever. 800 non GFE. Wow!

That's a no for me dawg. Some of the shit that goes around her just ain't even worth the interaction.
I went for a cruise at about 2 am tonight. AA was really really dead. Not quite as dead as middle of December. But it wasn't far off. I noticed there was a lot more activity from the police going up and down AA. There was a community meeting last night with the chief of SPD regarding concerns over AA. For now at least they are doing more emphasis patrols in the area. Of course it really does nothing to deter anything because they don't go after the girls. The pimps don't care either because SPD doesn't harass them either. SPD hasn't had this few of officers since 1957! Let that sink in for a moment. My guess is they will only keep this up for the next week or so and then it will be business as usual. ESP when summer rolls around and crime flares up again. They don't have the officers to just roam around AA all night. They have been doing community meetings about the crime on AA since before I was born and it's the same complaints every time. Nothing will ever change.
While I was at a stop light near the oak tree plaza I heard a loud thud a few cars behind me of a car door being slammed and looked in my rear view mirror and a girl was yelling at some guy and in a big huff. A chonker on the sidewalk asked "what did that raggedy guy do?" the other hooker responded "he wants bare!" and then the chonker on the sidewalk started yelling at him "ew you dirty dirty pig!
Always amuses me when a hooker becomes the moral authority over your life.

Truth be told I've not called an escort agency since the incident with the narcoleptic girl. And there were a couple of shitty things that happened at massage parlors that turned me off to them for many years.
Ran into might only second dude on the blade last night. Rolled up on some black SW. He immediately is like "You know I'm a tranny right?" I pulled away. You guys seen all those BS statistics that say gay / lesbian and transgender are much more likely to be sex trafficked and shit? I ain't never seen but two guys on the blade in the Years I've been cruising that shit.

I hope they're not done updating the board, because it's really hard to navigate. I can't seem to find the girl's alerts and reviews either.

Just realized Rubie from tna gave me a negative feedback, I've never even contacted her lmao I just favorited her months ago. These girls be wild.
Damn, while this new update looks nicer, navigation and functionality is so much worser. It was so easy to look at a provider's reviews / alerts. I don't even know if previous reviews / alerts was part of this migration either because I can't find them on any provider's profiles.
It shows number of vouches but no reviews related to the provider.
Edit: Wtf all my vouches are gone too
Is there seriously no menu option anymore for providers? If you can't be explicit in an ad and can't put a menu anywhere, what the hell is a hobbyist supposed to do.
They were already near useless, but at least gave you a semblance of information.
If providers were annoyed about menu queries, they're about to get a whole lot worse.
Also to vouch for someone, it says you need 10 reviews for them first, LOL. Though that'll likely change.
The new layout and navigation. Basically the full UX (user experience) completely 100% sucks. I know every new UI takes some time to used to. But this one is complete rubbish. I cannot find my TDL list and they have actually made it HARDER to find providers in specific areas (e. G. It took 3 clicks to see everyone working in SEATAC today) - now I cannot even figure out how the fuck to do that. Finally there are thick RED borders on things around menus etc. It actually is harder on the eyes to read and browse (something NO UI should strive for)?
What are your feelings / reactions to it?

I noticed my TDL missing too. Looks like it might have been replaced with a Bookmark section. Which absolutely sucks, because I had non regular posting girls that I have crafted over the years on my TDL. Damn, totally fucks up how I was using that board.

I'm not even sure there's a TDL anymore. I see a bookmark / follow option.
Also when I try to block someone, it says they're already on my ignore list (likely attempted to move over). But I can still see their ads / profile.
Edit: figured out a way to recover ignore list. Add someone NEW to your ignore list that hasn't been added before and it'll repopulate your entire ignore list before your eyes and work properly.

I can't believe they thought that board layout was a good idea. It sucks! I would hate to be a provider relying on that board because she is going to have a much harder time getting the attention she needs for business. The board had a pretty good thing going but right now it is ruined!
1. Is super slow for me.
2. Difficult to navigate.
3. TDL are gone.
4. Alerts, vouches and reviews are difficult to find.
5. Difficult to scan reviews and scan provider ad postings. Maybe it's just my eyes but when I'm looking I find it very hard to find which ad is attached to the provider name. And the pictures are so small they don't come out very well. No way anybody is going to click through every single post and read them. Especially with this slow site.

Reviews seemed to have disappeared if you click a provider, but if you click a hobbyist's reviews, they show up.
PMs seemed to have returned from deletion and cluttered up everything as they're now 'conversations'. I had to 'leave conversations / delete' a ton of them as my inbox was full.
Ultimately it does seem very unfavorable towards both providers and hobbyists looking at ads. Oh well, as long as the bookmark / follow feature works ok.

[B]Following[/B]: You would receive notifications whenever that individual does something (posting, updating, etc.).
[B]Bookmark[/B]: Is just saving their profile in a list in which you can organize by using tags / labels. So maybe you want to give certain providers the tag / label of 'body rub', so you can type in 'body rub' in your bookmarks and filter to providers you've bookmarked and given that tag.

I'm not seeing any speed issues. And media / pics seem to load much faster than before, though you only see thumbnails in the ads now.
TIP: Filtering by city can be done now by just clicking the city in the ads list. A drop-down on the right lets you edit filters.
The biggest issue for me as that my TamperMonkey (browser add-in) script no longer works. That let me flag a provider's ads in-place with colors to indicate service level and desirability, etc. It was a kind of TDL overlay on the ads page!
And all previous links to providers, ads and reviews are now broken!
Because the site is so hard to navigate, I'm including a lot of direct links:
[B]TDL[/B]: Done Gone. They did warn about this via a message posted a week before the actual rollout. It's replaced with Bookmarks ([URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/bookmarks[/URL]). There is some kind of tagging feature. Personally, the "Friends and Contacts" option (below) seems more useful.
[B]Ignore list[/B] Also supposed to go away, but it is still there, just invisible. To make it visible (thanks HelloThar): Add someone NEW to your ignore list. It will repopulate everything you had earlier. Direct link: [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/ignored[/URL].
[B]Friends and Contacts[/B]: Are now here: [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/following[/URL].
[B]Private Messages[/B]: [I]all[/I] of your previous messages, including the deleted ones, especially the automatically generated "TDL" list have been restored. To send new PMs, you must delete them, and [I]buckle up[/I], it's weird. Click the select button. A menu will open on the bottom of the screen. Tap "select all" (which only does 20). In the dropdown, select "Leave Conversation. " You will be prompted again. I don't know it makes a whole lot of difference what you choose. Repeat until your mailbox is empty. [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/conversations/[/URL].
[B]Account Details[/B] - All profiles have the same options for likes and dislikes. If you make changes, you cannot save them without providing a phone number. [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/account-details[/URL].
[B]Preferences[/B] have changed and it's hard to find. The direct link is here: [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/preferences[/URL] The search options "Relevance" is maddeningly broken, try Default or Most Recent.
[B]Privacy[/B] - I'd recommend going through this section carefully. [URL]https://www.tnaboard.com/community/account/privacy[/URL].
My password doesn't work and it says no account is associated with the email.
Guess my account from 2007 is just gone. I should be very upset but with how shitty that place is now I don't really give a fuck.
Looks to me like TNA just screwed all of their paying and advertising customers over.
