Rants, Raves, and Opinions

[QUOTE=Stallis;2400229]Maybe the last 10 posts belong in Rants, Raves and Opinions. Wasn't that WHY that thread was created so we wouldn't bog down the regular threads with sniping at each other?[/QUOTE]I'm not going to snipe with these guys. If they want to keep kicking a dead horse and backing a guy with one useless post that promotes another site then let them, I already admitted I was being sarcastic to the guys post, IMO for good reason.

I'm pretty sure we wanted to discourage this type of post by newbies but apparently these guys want to encourage them and fill the forum with unknown and untrusted new guys asking for intell and offering nothing. THAT will certainly make the forum better! (oops, more sarcasm)

I'll simply remember whose pms to respond to when the time comes. LOL.

[QUOTE=OlderFunGuy;2400363]Was looking around on BP on Friday and clicked on a post which talked about EroticMonkey. Took a look around and don't quite know what to make of this site. Anyone else checked it out?[/QUOTE]Now if this same post was someone's first, they would have been accused of shilling for another site. No link to the ad, no link to the site, yada yada yada. But we *know* OFG and know he's a decent part of the community. Food for thought.

As far as EroticMonkey is concerned, I've heard of it but not around this area. I think it's more for major metro areas (like Chicago), but am not 100% sure. I haven't noticed it in any of the BP ads around here. Who was using it in their ad?

It is clear on this board, and pretty fair, that you have to give info to gain any credibility. I have not contributed much, and I'd argue that is because of the poor mobile interface (but that is for another day), but being new I don't expect any info from anyone, nor would I trust info from a newbie, including myself.

That being said. Check out my awesome review of a provider on the BP forum.

Trust me, its real.

[QUOTE=MkePalace;2400178] I'm sure many of the better-than-all-others group is okay with beating kids when they fuck up as a simple means to teach them a lesson. It's not "harsh", they just need to learn. [/QUOTE]I believe that you're way out of line with that comment. It doesn't belong here at all.

[QUOTE=ScooterAllCity;2401370]I believe that you're way out of line with that comment. It doesn't belong here at all.[/QUOTE]Excellent. My intent was not to offend. But make a point. It would seem my experiment in choice of words worked. Would it have been better if I had said "spanked" instead of beat? Or "swatted"? They're all forms of beating (physically striking), but they certainly don't come across the same way.

It seems that some of us are, indeed, able to distinguish a difference between "harsh" and "not harsh. ".

[QUOTE=CharlieKane200;2400364]Dude, seriously?[/QUOTE]I must have missed that post. WOW!

OFG is a trusted member. End of story.

I was new not long ago and there is a WEALTH of trustworthy info available here with a simple search and NO ACTUAL CONTRIBUTION. (Something some seem to have forgotten) As a matter of fact, this is the site I trust the most when it comes to the members I trust who reside here.

You do have to give info here. BUT it must also be verified by others who are trusted here, IMO. When that happens you do indeed gain credibility as a truthful member.

It doesn't matter if you disagree about the level of service IMO. What matters is that you are giving realistic info on the credibility of the provider.

One mans trash is anothers treasure. I've had a few disappointments from recommendations here. All I care about is the credibility of the recommendation.

We all have different strokes.

I'm not being harsh at this point. Just blunt.

You're wasting a lot of emotion on a one post "wanter".

Think about that.

None of this is in blue, you're welcome to respond because it's just me, not the admin.

[QUOTE=ItaloSamoa;2401664]What you seem unable to distinguish between is useful and useless.

I'm not being harsh at this point. Just blunt.[/QUOTE]Yes you were being harsh, had you got off your dead ass and typed "what is tagged" in google you would have found it's a social media site. Had you not taken the time to write something stupid, but searched a little, you would have discovered that it's a social media site with a lot of fucking hookers. However in your case, being a wise ass was more important than getting pussy.

It was a first time poster, new to the forum, and he got his ass jumped. Maybe it was the chick. Maybe, just maybe, it was the chick trying to clue you knuckleheads into the fact that she was on tagged trying to sell pussy. But again, punishing new guys is much more important than pussy.

[QUOTE=WizardOfAahs;2400288]This is the age of entitlement and everyone thinks they are can get something for nothing. Unfortunately that's not true here by the vary nature that for the most part we are all looking to pay for something.

Probably the best things to do would be a link for a how-to-post as well as how-to-ask for information.[/QUOTE]This one really took the fucking cake. A guy who has never paid a dime to use this forum telling other people how they should use it to make it easier on him. That my friend is some of the worst entitlement thinking I have ever seen. I appreciate you taking the time to help people organize their thoughts to present better info, but calling the lack of that knowledge entitlement is ludicrous.

[QUOTE=ScooterAllCity;2399722]I sure hope that he gets over it and it's nothing that will scar him for life.[/QUOTE]I just need to put you back on moderation. Because you.

[QUOTE=ItaloSamoa;2398341]What the hell is tagged and why should I care?[/QUOTE]And you, just don't get it.

I've said it before and I hope I don't have to say it again, getting new people here is fucking expensive as hell. You don't have to help them but these are you're choices.

1. Shut the fuck up about TELLING (rather than explaining) why guys have to give before they get. Or.

2. I will put you back on moderation and never take you off.

Hope it's getting warmer up there.

For it's original purpose and not use it to rip on members. If you don't have anything good to say to someone, don't say anything at all. Especially you ScooterAllCity. I'm done! Back to the hobby.

Now that the dust has settled I hope members can get back on the path for which the forum was intended.

However a couple of points need to be made. The comments were clearly harsh. I am much more favorably disposed to someone who admits a mistake and sincerely apologizes. A failure to apologize only fosters the notion that the offender is not sorry for what he said. It takes a great deal of courage to apologize for a mistake but in truth, it should be done. Enuf on that.

Re first time posters. There seems to be a notion amongst seniors that new posters should first post useful information before asking questions. Let me ask this. If a first time poster posted about a girl, would he be slammed for promoting someone? Would you be suspicious of his motives? Cop, pimp, setup, or someone just trying to get cred?

You can't have it both ways.

Isn't it more normal for a first time poster to ask questions?

On the webpage for Milwaukee, click on number of posts, for example, under Backpage reviews, there are over 7,000 posts. Look how many people posted less than 3 times. Where are those people now? Why did they leave the forum? They took the time to register for the forum, most are probably are still in the hunt. Where are they? Were they chased away? Imagine if just half remained on the forum and posted Backpage reviews. Imagine how much information would be available to us. Not only for finding good reliable providers, but keeping us safe.

So let's welcome everyone. There will always be bad eggs turning up but let's not chase them off before they have had a chance.

T-Man.

Wow, lot's of good points here. As someone that was slammed for being too open in one of my first reports, I have to admit that many of you have enjoyed that same woman. Deb from the Stevens Point Wausau area that provides a tremendous massage. There is a fine line but none of us know exactly where the line gets crossed so let's have an open mind.

[QUOTE]Drove around Tues night from 9:30 until midnight and what a waste.Hit the north and south and even downtown for nothing.What's up with that?I was hoping to score a mini skirted high heeled cutie pie last night but I came up empty.Any suggestions?[/QUOTE]Yes he provided info but notice the last two words.

8th post;.

[QUOTE]I drove the north side all the way up to Silver Spring and it sure was quiet. Nothing downtown or on Lisbon, North and Center streets. The weather was decent but no girls.Where are they?[/QUOTE]Same thing, notice the last three words.

ItaloSamoa.

Excerpt from 8th post;.

[QUOTE]WOW! ... She's gorgeous! I NEED SOME DETAILS! "$300 for whatever I like" sounds pretty sweet to me![/QUOTE]When nothing was forthcoming in his next post he is LITERALLY begging.

[QUOTE]I need some details on her, seriously Mph. Be a bud and give me a few, PLEASE.[/QUOTE][BLUE]So from now on, until the end of time, neither one of you guys are allowed to say a SINGLE WORD about new guys asking for info. Not a single word. As always you don't have to respond, you may add the member asking to your ignore list if you wish, but one more time, you may not say a [u]single fucking word[/u] about them giving before they get.

Note; that last bit is in blue.
