The main reason people keep doing it is because too many people keep ANSWERING their inquires. If members would stop answering these off-topic posters, maybe it would slow it down some. A recent new member just said (in the Review Thread of course) that he had done it because he saw so many others doing in and though it was OK since they were getting responses.

Once one member replies, it then seems to becomes open season on posting more comments about the same off-topic post. Other's can't wait to chime in and make the post seem validated even more by agreeing or adding to the reply made. Ignoring the post and not rewarding the poster is the best way to stop it. It got better for a several weeks but now it seems to be in full-steam ahead mode again.

Occasionally a post will be made in the wrong thread, but to reward the person posting "asks" in the Review Threads should be rare to happen. If someone is compelled to answer the off-topic poster, they should do it via DM to keep the Thread on Topic. Mostly the posts are by new members but not always. It seems I see as many from senior members as not.

We can all work together to keep the threads on topic.

Brought over from the Positive Escort Review Thread:

I fixed your original post to remove all the hard breaks to make it flow tighter and make it seem less like a demand.

I am not sure how outsiders are supposed to figure out who the fuck they are posting about but its been a standard practice since I started reading this forum many years ago to post a link (in 6 separate cities) - orlando is the absolute worst at this practice and I get it doesn't work in some threads but his one should always have links and maybe archive them but that is more viable in the ripoff thread.

Protocols? As far as protocols, the ONLY protocol that's generally applied to the Review Threads that's not listed in the Official Rules of the Forum is to post only REVIEWS in the Review Threads along with any related comments.

There are not any "RULES" stating that the Reviews or any posts for that matter, must include links, names, pics, hair color, rates, roast beef curtain length, ear wax consistency, mole count, pimp's sexiness, shoe size, butt hole shade color or anything else. In the Positive Review Thread it should just be written as a Positive Review, a comment based on a Positive Review or a comment related to a Positive Review.

The Positive Escort Review Thread is not there to openly post complaints about your desires and to spew Review Thread pollution. It's also not there to ask open generic questions that a lot of people like to ask like "have you seen? "Info Please. " or announce your upcoming visit to The City Beautiful and demanding you present your best to the visiting dignitary. If there is confusion on someone's part, just remember that a REVIEW Thread is for posting REVIEWS. Any thread title that doesn't say REVIEW in the Thread Title is fine to ask open questions or make open comments.

As far as Review content in general, yes, the both of you that are complaining ARE correct. Not everyone, in fact probably no one, writes perfect reviews. When a link isn't there to identify the girl, keep reading, you will maybe see WHY sometimes there are no links on some Review posts. Many times when a link isn't posted from what I generally see, there sometimes is already a post referring to the same girl within reaching distance of that newer post and the link is already posted there so it's redundant to post it again and again. Sometimes the link has become broken, so why post it. Other times when there's no link, it's about a well known provider and everyone and their brother knows who it is, so again, no need to post link. Sometimes it's for a UTR and there are NOT (generally) links for them.

For those that are newer or don't read the Threads often and can't keep up with the pace, there is ALWAYS the search function in the Forum to LOOK UP the provider and FIND a link out there if there is one lurking out there. If you still can't find a link, you can ALWAYS DM the Member and ask for the link. If your attitude is you don't have time for that shit (true story, look it up) then a lot of people are not going to want to jump through hoops for someone who only wants intel handed to them on a silver platter.

Yes, in a perfect world, everyone would post perfect reviews, but also in a perfect world, people (generically) would learn to use the search function before asking for or missing links openly on the Threads or would DM a members asking for help when these no link or the link is down. Especially before I decide to call out an entire population for their poor posting practices. Notice how I post this editorial here and not in the Review Thread.

Another thing I discovered about the request posted to write perfect Reviews, the original member demanding that all the links need to be written the perfect way like he does (I think he said something like, most of us are real good and consistent) has posted TWO Whole Reviews where he actually followed his own believed-protocol demand. Only 2 of his reviews have links out of the 5 Total Reviews he has written "real good" during his tenure on the Board. Generically, that level of posting is probably not even what would be considered as being or referred to as being a "valued" (generically speaking) senior member at this point in many people's eyes. This term of course being purely a coined term representing someone that contributes positively to the Forum over time with valid intel and has gained the trust from the general population and not just someone that mostly asks for info and posts lots of high fives to other's genuine reviews to inflate their post count. Remember, there are no actual guidelines that show this valued member "designation" one way or the other as it's purely subjective. It's the same as when someone says that they will provide some information to an "actively contributing member". That member gets to decide to whom they will give info.

If there is confusion on someone's part, I always share this remember that a REVIEW Thread is for posting REVIEWS. Any Thread Title that doesn't say REVIEW in the Thread Title is fine to ask questions or make open comments.

In conclusion, complaints are not a positive review, they don't belong in the Positive Review Thread. There are other more appropriate threads to do your complaining, like right here in the good old Rat Trap.

P.S. SwampRat apparently seems to have an issue with postings in all the cities he participates even though he called out Orlando specifically as the absolute worst. It seems that no one will post exactly what he wants, the way he wants and no one will archive links his particular way in the posts in ANY of the cities he participate no matter what. With so many others in all those cities not meeting his expectations either, I begin to wonder what the issue actually is. When I try to solve problems like this, I usually look first for common denominator.

True UTRs are not looking for volume and don't want to be advertised.

The only way to get to them is through an intermediary.

The guy you have to go through to get a UTRs contact info.

If done properly it's the only way you get the number.

In some cases the UTR and the gatekeeper are one and the same.

Gatekeeper is supposed to do a quick background check on the guy asking for the number, most don't.

Yes, the name sounds like something out of Lord of the Rings or Dungeons and Dragons.

But it's the name that someone came up with awhile ago.

Explained perfectly on the UTR thread by Munchi420. Can't make it any simpler for you then that.
