just curious...

Has anyone else received Christmas greetings from escorts??

With many e-mail contacts over the last year (~most returned~), and the setting up of wonderful appointments, it is nice that they remember you.

To me, it shows a sign of class.

[Chuck50]

No but I sent to mine today. I am always thinking of them. HUGS Chuck

Being remembered

 

Glutes,

Yeah it's nice to be remembered. I have gotten some greetings from escorts who have become friends and even some I have never hired who have become friends.

>Has anyone else received Christmas greetings from escorts??

 

Yes. And I agree it is nice.

 

BTW... I also received some Xmas greetings from posters on this board, mainly in the form of e-cards. Appreciated those as well.

 

Merry Xmas to all.

I got a phone call today from a regular which I thought very thoughtful. A quite young very paasionate kid.

Yes, and each was a wonderful surprise.

Yes

I have received X Mas greetings from a former escort who has passsed into "friend" satatus. That was fine and fun!

 

I also received one from an escort I contacted before X Mas but could not hook up with due to scheduling difficulties. I think, on balance, the motivation is ok, but as a general rule I don't like to get unsolicited marketing email of any kind in my inbox whether for viagra, penis extensions or escorts. It seems a bit indiscreet to me for an escort to initiate contact, and I am not sure I like the fact that an escort I have yet to meet has kept my email address on file.

YES, I received Christmas greetings from two of my traveling escorts plus from some of my local escorts that I see, even a few presents which shocked the hell out of me. Each E-Mail had a personal touch and not a bulk mailing that I got from one which felt so cold. The personal touch ones will be so remembered when booking again in the future :9 as I also remember the bulk mailing one with no personal touch x(

 

When in doubt I whip it out :+

[sman]

nope. they probably forgot all about me.

[Txpaytoplay]

I have also received some cards and emails from escorts...Receiving them truly added enjoyment to the Holidays.:-)

[LovesYng]

Guess they just like our money }(

 

When in doubt I whip it out :+

[Vincent_Michael]

Just like your money? I like you guys for sure! But serious I have to fess up and say I did send a bulk e-mail to everyone I had on a contact list to wish them a very marry x-mass and to let them know about my new site.

[+ bigjoey]

i got two cards from escorts i see and one card from a retired escort where we have remained friends for over a decade after he retired. these were all "real" cards with a stamp and not the email things. also, each card had a personal written message that made me feel remembered and not part of a mass mailing.

[Txpaytoplay]

Ouch!!:o

Hold the phone here. YOU contacted an escort (from your wording it appears this happened recently), and now you consider email from him unsolicited? Did your earlier emails advise him not to contact you?

 

Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE, also known as SPAM) is defined as email that you did not invite. In this case, you DID invite it. It was YOU who opened the hailing frequency. It doesn't become unsolicited until you explicitly close the hailing frequency.

 

Did you tell him not to write to you?

I don't think there is anything wrong with bulking out xmas emails...especially if you want to give some new info or other stuff...i got a few...you kind of take the bulk ones though for what they are...kind of like getting the xmas card from your bank...i did get one personal one...sounded sincere...that was kind of nice... but I am still not sure about it (I guess I am not a very trusting soul in these matters)anyway..

hopefully you sent out some personal ones too

 

Here is kind of the reverse question....

Did you get any xmas emails from clients?

Sorry, I don't assume that everytime I enter a store, whether on-line or off, that I am inviting the store owner to contact me in the future. It never occurred to me that I would need to give any such advice to any merchant. Is that really your habit both on and off line?

I opened the hailing frequency, but as we did not contract for services, the frequency was closed. I doubt many clients expect that contacting an escort in any way licenses the escort to initiate further unsolicited contact, particularly when no meeting resulted from the initial contact.

Wow are you naieve.

 

>Sorry, I don't assume that everytime I enter a store, whether

>me in the future.

 

Yep, you are. You're establishing a relationship with that merchant and unless you tell them otherwise they are within their rights to communicate with you. You've initiated a "relationship". There's actually legislation (the CAN SPAM act) that spells it out.

 

> It never occurred to me that I would need

My spam filter is fairly efficient. Franco DiSantis and a number of other guys I'd ordinarily not have reason to email with are white-listed. The black-list is getting fairly extensive. (Actually, Franco and I are due for one of our brunches in WeHo.)

 

>I opened the hailing frequency, but as we did not contract for

>services, the frequency was closed.

 

How so? Did you say you were done?

 

Did you say "Sorry, I'm over this"

 

Did you say "kiss off, I can't be bothered"

 

Or are you assuming a hailing frequency you opened is closed when it's convenient for you?

[Guest cardholder]

RE: just plain stupid...

 

So you send spam in your day job, I guess! However, as I said above when I ennter a store and look around without buying anything I do not regard that as a license to receive unsolicited promotional material from the merchant.

 

The only reason why there is legislation on the topic, is because on-line merchants abused the norms of good taste. Nonetheless, the legislation puts the onus on the merchant, not the client. It is the merchant, here the escort, that must provide the possibility for the client to be removed from spam, and must notify the client how to do that.

 

I always wondered who these useful idiots are who actually like receiving spam. I guess I don't need to wonder any more. Even so, I am very surprised though that in a commercial context premised on strict adherence to discretion that any client or escort would defend unsolicited communications initiated by escorts to clients.

RE: just plain stupid...

 

We'll have to agree to disagree then.

 

>So you send spam in your day job, I guess!

 

No. Far from it. The people I correspond with are people who have contacted my company.

 

>The only reason why there is legislation on the topic, is

>because on-line merchants abused the norms of good taste.

 

Oh wow is this wide of the mark.

 

You opened the door or you didn't.

 

>I always wondered who these useful idiots are

 

Tactfully phrased.

 

You may consider hailing frequencies closed.
