Searching, Ghosting, Bitcoin
[B]Searching Basics[/B]
[QUOTE=TooBadd;2646038]I agree, people do need to search before asking. However, we also have to remember that [b]3 letter names a lot of the providers use, such as "Mia", are not searchable[/b][/QUOTE]If a name is too short or very common, everyone posts the LINK itself when referencing a provider and [B]keywords in the links should be searched[/B].
Example, here is Mia:
[NOPARSE]http://raleigh.backpage.com/FemaleEscorts/outcall-special-[/NOPARSE][HIGHLIGHT]xotic-russian[/HIGHLIGHT]- swtheart-utit-bg-boot-mt /[HIGHLIGHT]21809329[/HIGHLIGHT].
(1) You can't search the whole URL itself but you can search the poster I'd. The last number in the URL.
Poster I'd = [HIGHLIGHT]21809329[/HIGHLIGHT].
(2) A lot of times, specially now providers will use multiple accounts thus poster IDs since Backpage has also started to "Ghost" posts but they'll have the exact same keyword in the title. Or you can search part of of the title which is also in the URL:
Keyword to search from title = [HIGHLIGHT]xotic-Russian[/HIGHLIGHT].
So if you search "2180939" or "xotic-Russian" in Raleigh, you'll find 6 posts referencing Mia.
[B]Ghosting[/B]
[QUOTE=ILoveDeams;2645707]Go back a few pages on the forum you will see why the number of girls have, there seems to be something up with how posts are showing up on BP. That being said I did also notice that the ads after page 15 on BP don't match the one on the first few pages, so I guess what someone here pointed out was true. May be the posts who pay are showing up on the first few pages and the ones who post for free show up after pages 14 or 15.[/QUOTE]Backpage is experimenting with a lot of ghosting like Craigslists does. After a bit, ads from the same account get "ghosted" meaning they don't show up in the results. Right now the gallery section where we usually search. So far they show up in sort by date (just text). So recently, providers started posting from multiple accounts, so you've probably noticed that multiple ads from the same provider. BP has also started ghosting those maybe based on analytics of ads contain very similar text and / or IP. Better to search for ads by date and on desktop there are link preview software that on hover over give you a view of what that link is. Upgraded ads get preferential treatment in results and galleries.
[B]Bitcoin[/B]
[QUOTE=ILoveDeams;2645707]So is BP accepting bitcoins as payment method?[/QUOTE]Yes, since July I think when MC / Visa / AMEX all stopped processing for BP and BP went to Bitcoin. BP must be losing a ton of money because providers just don't understand how to use Bitcoin and generally little interest in it. I've tried to tip providers in Bitcoin and / or show them how to set up a wallet but generally they have little interest in it saying "maybe next time. " Effie who I dreamt recently knew quite a bit about it but even she didn't use it.
The reason I try to evangalize Bitcoin is, that if LEO and Co, can pressure CC companies to change Craigslist and to stop processing BackPage, the payment processing will stopped at this or any site that becomes the next Backpage. There needs to be an alternative payment method which they have no control over. Bitcoin.
Angel. Hell is more like it

Saw her awhile ago. Advertised at a hotel, asked me to pick her up at a crack house and take her to her boyfriends. Not clean, shady as hell and these pics are 10 x better than she looks in real life. Weight description is 40# off. Definitely a do NOT repeat.
Brandi Fine Still worth it
I have seen Brandi many times and would consider myself a regular. I too have been canceled on a couple of times. She does have a sick child. I guess I respect that family comes first sometimes. I have had to back out of appointments as well. Life happens. Is it inconvenient? Sure. All I know is that when I get to see her, I have an amazing time. She is low volume too and books quick on days when she is available. Anyway that's my two cents. In fact I hope to see her soon!
[QUOTE=OneCobra;2645673]I have had her cancel on me many times also, for just about any reason you could think of. She is a nice lady when you see her, but gosh setting up an appointment and actually getting to see her can be very frustrating!! Sometimes ya got to question if the hassle and her wasting your time worth it?[/QUOTE]
Any luck with any of the asian posts? Well this one was quite interesting.
Everybody should know by now I am a sucker for the Asian persuasion. I thought I would try to contact one that showed in a advertisement in fayetteville (even though I saw the raleigh one first) and also ironically, a few days earlier, in Raleigh where she was originally posting in heavy rotation. Funny thing is that is you try to contact the number on the ad, or at least googled it first like I did, someone is not only putting fake numbers, but this ad had the number to the walmart supercenter on skibo at the time that I saw the number posted! LOL what a freaking joke. Has anyone else noticed this trend or have any suggestions on the Asian side of things for me?
