Unless you want to do a transaction between two legal and consenting adults giving cash for sex.
I thought Republicans were about less government and more freedom. Isn't that what they run on? Why do bible thumping weirdos like Sessions and Pence represent the party? Why does the most powerful person in the country let this happen when we know damn well he has no problem mongering.
With these two down, mongering days are hard now.
[QUOTE=Zimmm33;3789454]Congrats to you idiots that voted in Republicans.[/QUOTE]I think you're mistaking amigo. The Reps have their problems but it's not the Reps that drive this but rather the Dems. Women rights, human trafficking and so on: these are Democratic issues. The Reps don't give a hoot about things like that, it's the the female side of the Dems that push everybody in that direction. If the Reps had their way we would still have prostitution banned but LE wouldn't pay any attention to it. The Reps would pray in the morning and visit a whorhouse at night.
In light of recent developments, I'm pondering 'what next' and have a few thoughts.
Alternatives. I don't intend to start a 'what should we use thread', and yes, fully cognizant of USASG's offering, but more wondering how a solution that was at BPs / CLs scale can emerge. First, the fervor with which the trumpets are attacking this tells me a non-dark web solution would be tough? I can't claim to know enough about whether having servers in another country protects one (kimdotcom), but even if it does, getting to the stage where you have even close to the number of unique visits / clicks that BP had would be a task in itself.
The SPs. Spoken to a few regulars and they are all shitting bricks. A bunch of them had paid up for weekends at hotels and are sounding a bit desperate (which could be advantageous for us), but in the long term, what do they end up doing? The crackheads? Back out on the streets. Maybe some more activity for our SW brethren, but LEO have been upping their presence so will be interesting to see. The local 'part-timer', who has another job during the week? The streets are probably a stretch, maybe another McDonalds job or similar? Likely keep seeing regulars that they have, but low demand will mean they can't ever justify booking a hotel, so far fewer incalls. Traveling girls? Well, we can probably say goodbye to fresh talent. It will be impossible to cover costs without a reliable solution in most cities, let alone Boston.
The mongers. Well, senior members might seem to have it sorted, and are likely best poised to extract value from the current frenzy, however the reality will set in that a few seniors can't provide enough demand for the number of SWs and their cost structure. The regulars. Well, real regulars will have to rely on their own contact books and development of regulars. Fake regulars who just troll and want others to toftt will fade back into the shadows and boost pornhubs numbers. I suspect there may be some more migration to the SW scene, but I suspect most are on here because they value creature comforts.
It would be interesting to hear other's opinions, and If anyone wants to PM, you know where I'm at.
In all this, I'm thinking about how it could affect supply, demand (and as a result, pricing) and quality / safety.

But Republicans control everything right now, including and most importantly moron Jeff Sessions at the DOJ which is behind this. There is nothing happening at the federal level right now that is not sanctioned by Republicans.
How does Eros survive? Or is it just a matter of time for them?
[QUOTE=PinayLuver;3789738]But unfortunately for these cognitively challenged morons of the FBI sex ads aren't the only things that are displayed on backpage. Correct me if I'm wrong but the job opportunities, items for buy / sell etc all have their own separate category. These mouth breathing knuckle dragging fools shut down the entire page not just the sex ads.[/QUOTE]Excellent point. I have items for sale and business services advertisements on Backpage. Nothing to do with sex or trafficking. Now, the entire site is inaccessible!
The press is hysterical. In today's New York Daily News, an article began with "Sex ads platform [URL]Backpage.com[/URL]. ".
"Most users ever online was 3,667, Today at 18:41. ".
[QUOTE=TheIceGuy;3789820]Why does the most powerful person in the country let this happen when we know damn well he has no problem mongering.[/QUOTE]Because he's sick of the liberals whining about everything he does and he wants some positive PR. We all know that's the only reason he's signing it.
Stay safe, and happy hunting.

"There's just something about Backpage that makes politicians want to stupidly and misleadingly grandstand. Just hours after the Supreme Court effectively blessed the 1st Circuit ruling saying Backpage hadn't broken the law, Senator Claire McCaskill (DEMOCRAT) released a report that blasts Backpage for "knowing facilitation of online sex trafficking. ".
I see a site called -"cityxguide dot com" is running still. It has pretty good pics. Check it out.
Pretty good site with decent options.
Thanks for sharing. I feel like this is an index / cache of BP. Reason I believe this is that I was on BP earlier today before they pulled it, and the numbers / girls look familiar. I've been on BP enough the last few weeks to be able to tell when the weekend arrivals / new girls turn up. Proof of my theory will be what the site looks like tomorrow! It is still a useful reference though if you have numbers stored but can't rmember the pictures.
Any more technical members know of a good way to make an archive of everything they have on their site for future reference?

Nrlmus, if you're going to state the facts, try doing the research first. Yes the Reps may have had the problem but its not accurate your assessment.
If you didn't lie about serving in the armed forces, then maybe you'd have a little more credibility when you speak about politics. Some might doubt your claim my friend. Thats being called a fraud.
