Another comment I have heard from TNA options, providing is their primary or sole source of income. Not sure if this is because they are totally unskilled, privileged or just plain lazy. Also explains why the occasional discounted, ad as rent is now due, and the frequent movement of their apartment incall. The Thai ladies obviously have a better business model.

My previous TRB friends had some other primary source of income and providing was a side gig as time allowed or financial needs required. I know I helped purchase concert tickets with my donations for a long time gorgeous favorite. That alone allowed for a much more reasonable rate and enjoyable experience for everyone involved. This also probably explains why all the more attractive ladies are in Bellevue, which has been commented on often.

Guys that use seeking and have the time to commit to exploring options can probably still locate the occasional unicorn.

I saw several that had safety limits but were still a blast to see as they had great personalities, were very attractive and were just fun to be with. Most regulars developed into true GFE and I know I wasn't the only fortunate one but it wasn't "discussed". Almost all of the repeat ladies I saw were great kissers and seemed to enjoy our time, almost never was a donation requested immediately like the younger options now do. I have found TNA to be a business model compared to TRB as a relationship model.

Oh well, those days are generally gone. There remain a few gems on TNA however to some extent I believe sites like this are partly to blame as now what a lady does or doesn't do with a client can be openly discussed. Previously I think some ladies felt more like a companion or occasional friend if their actions with someone were more "private". That's just my observation. Good luck to all, I have been as frustrated as many of you are with todays offerings.

TRB wasn't all rainbows and fluffy bunnies, to be sure. There were quite a few extremely unpleasant folks there under the friendly surface who were doing pretty bad stuff.

This forum at least has the benefit of remarkable honesty and an unwillingness to fool ourselves. A lot of people on TRB were, in retrospect, willfully blind to a lot of the shit that was going on right underneath their upturned noses.

When in reality, it's CBJ, and CFS and nothing else is allowed.

Of course, if you ask a provider for specifics, they get mad or think you're LE or something. Then you also got to deal with figuring out the rates and what is or isn't included with upselling on fetish or VIP. It's a mess.

That whole board is a mess honestly. You can just assume with every girl on there everything is covered and it will be a shitty experience and you will pay top dollar. That was my experience a few years ago and nothing has changed nor will it ever because the guys don't write honest reviews because they will be threatened if they do! If a guy writes an honest review they will get an alert put out on them with the provider accusing them of attempted rape or some BS. I've seen it happen! That whole board is probably going to be shut down soon because that 15 year old was being advertised on there so good riddance I say!

It's not that hard: Full safety, GFE lite, RBGFE, etc. I like the reviews where they do the 'abcbbbjcfsdatyxyz' kind of thing. At least those are informative.

The other board was founded as a review board, so if a review is going to written, it should provide some minimum info IMHO.

I wish reviewers would at the very least specify if she's safety or GFE in the review titles, so I can do a simple search.

Like woman, I want a BBBJ, not to a read your 150 reviews one by one. State your likes and dislikes right away so we don't waste time.

To add to that, not updating or posting a new add for OC only or whatever if you lose an IC. I've wasted time trying to book someone from an ad a few days out of date to only find out no more IC. And why is it trying to find out what's on offer can be like pulling teeth? Just reply with what you do don't do, "off menu" items and let's move on. Smdh.

I reached out to her and asked what were her rates, menu and availability. (Just like she posted in her ad, minus the menu part).

Her response, "how long babe?

I knew this wasnt going anywhere so I responded. I usually book anywhere from a quickie to an overnight, depending on that stuff. (You know the menu and the rates?)

A hour later she responds. 350 1/2 500 hr. (That's all she says).

I'm like "K".

Then she responds like an hour later "LMK babe. ".

Does she really expect me to move forward without knowing what she is even offering? This is what has become of the other board now. SMDH!

What's the board upgrade you're talking about?

They're replacing their VBulletin software with Xenforo. Feature details here: https://www.tnaboard.com/showthread....412&viewfull=1#post13912412.
