Colton

Update: had my first meeting and it was fantastic. Incredibly grateful to this forum and all the posters!

Personally, I tend to value my own opinion over the opinion of others, especially when I have an opinion based on experience.

Ya UNTIL I meet someone I rely on the kindness of strangers to share their first hand knowledge.  AFTER it sorta doesn’t matter.  
 
Regardless TGIF ❤️

Bill put in a lot of manhours, and also was constantly underfunded for what was probably a full-time job.  If people want a full-service site, someone needs to fund it.  For example, perhaps the opportunity to respond to reviews should be a premium feature.  Or maybe reading reviews can be a premium feature.
Also @RadioRob, please make sure you have appropriate legal counsel.

Congratulations Ryxx. Well done. 

But to Colton’s point …. Why ? If you’ve already met (and loved)

Didn't you already meet him @BonVivant?  Not sure why you are bumping the thread.

Congratulations!  That is an accomplishment worth celebrating.

Maybe “many” instead of “most”. But trying not to generalize and just speak as it relates to the context of this discussion

Maybe they should pay a deposit if they agree to show up.

I agree, but I don't know who wants to administer the rule.  That being said, you do a good job of calling BS so I nominate you. 

I don't recall seeing anything in the rules about it - but never fear, I will keep you honest by channeling Dorothy from the Golden Girls!  The rules do warn about trolls... 😉

He looks new.  Anyone have any thoughts to share?

Finally took a look at your beta. Once I reverted to the style we have now, I liked it just fine. I think @Colton's point above is right on the target.

I wonder if The Sports Desk belongs in the Topics section of the Forum VS the General section?
The General section historically has been all threads that related directly to escorting (or Massage).
Not a big sports fan here so it doesn't really impact me either way
Thanks for listening.

Thanks. I suggest we post the .eu links because the EU has better privacy policies.

I am willing to help maintain the server and keep the site online. Right now this site is running on my personal server. Long term it will be important to move it into its own island separate from my personal situation as I refuse to have the same thing that happened to this site twice previously occur again if something were to happen to me. I've spoken with Orin about this and have outlined some ideas around how to document what is needed for someone to take on "survivorship". This will include documenting all critical service logins (such as for the Xenforo software, for the domain hosting, for the domain DNS, etc)... how to access it, etc. It will also include having the site being self-contained where it's separate from the administrator personally. This role can also be shared with any other sysadmin who is comfortable with linux system administration and web services (apache, mysql, php, etc.)
 
What I do *not* want is to have any direct control over any sort of money. In the interest of this being a community, it would not be good for me to have control over everything. Whomever is going to be in charge of the money can make payments on behalf of the site, etc. I personally see it as a checks/balances thing. I'm NOT Daddy/Hooboy and I would never try to impose myself as such. Instead my goal is to simply do my part as a member of the community to ensure the site survives.
