What would you change about Daddy's Reviews?

[jjkrkwood]

Ok, Mr. Gaite, I will bite back. i would suggest we all continue to treasure & celebrate our collective humor, intellect, and caring for each other. Just look at the banter above. It is funny, smart and, although we may seem like we don't care much for each other, I feel that posting, in & of itself, is an expression of caring.

 

Whether our site looks like an 80s or 70s bar or the slickest one of all, WE are the draw. We are not defined by our platform, we are defined by the behaviors of our membership, and lately, I believe we've been unusually aggressive and moody. What to do? Here are some starters...

1. Continue to care (celebrate that someone became a great uncle, cheer up someone who is feeling stressed, empathize with an escort or client who has been cheated, tell it like it is)
   
2. Stop instigating or baiting - you know who you are: it is all of us at our worst
   
3. Start using the ignore function if you really dislike someone. There is no shame in it. Frankly, there is some pleasure in noticing that someone is still trying to push your buttons when others respond to their absurdities
   

 

Mr TR, while I love your posts, your suggestion, not so much. If I were to use the ignore feature as much as I needed to, I would be talking to myself ! And I do that all the time anyway. (Shhh, don't tell, but that's whats going on behind the Fan)

 

And maybe once my Meds kick in, I can celebrate all the menial and trivial shit here that's not about Me, and really learn to CARE, but since I keep hoping that the site will be more about hot guys with big schlongs , I see that hope slipping away and being replaced by plastic containers, chili and Ikea meatballs and TRUMP...... I may need to ask my doctor for some stronger stuff ???

How about this:

 

When a forum member posts a link to an escort's ad and asks if anybody has experience or knows the guy, the forum software should have an AI that springs into action and deletes the inevitable litany of non-replies that go, more or less: Well I don't know the guy from Adam but that ass is to die for.

That is pretty funny. Its akin to the comments posted below videos on a well known porn site that almost always say either "I want to be fucked this way" or "I want to fuck somebody this way"

 

Not that I would know anything about porn sites

And that's the beauty of this community, eh? We can disagree without being disagreeable. We can also learn from contrarians. Im starting to like your contrarian perspective. It makes me think. To your point on "ignore," I would ask: are you too quick on the trigger? I've caressed the ignore button when someone pisses me off, but I've learned that I have to wait until I determine it is indeed their posting pattern that I dislike. Sometimes folks are just having a bad day.

On caring, who are you kidding? It is obvious you care; otherwise, you would not have come back after a 2-year hiatus. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't be crying for change. If you really don't care and you are just a glutton for adversity, I do recommend you ask your doc for a new set of meds and stop the Don Quixote hallucinogens cuz you are fighting windmills, señor.

Mr Smith, I would think ANY post in which your name was mentioned would make you "fart with glee" ???

I'm NOT crying for change, it's just really cheap mascara..... And I came back because I wanted to comment on some juicy drama that was going on that I wasn't a part of. and I believed that many of the people I had problems with in the past were gone.... I WAS WRONG !

Hysterical! Thanks for using the fan, Papi or is that mami?

Totally a forum version of a subtweet and I think I've said this before in another context, but I wish forum members would learn when a discussion has turned into an unwinnable argument that is clogging up a thread and acquire the ability to drop it instead of feeling the need to argue back to "win" the point. Also, those who needle or bait are less problematic if no one takes them up on it.

Oh come on QTR... We ALL wanna be "Winners" !!!

I think the site is fine and accomplishes its intended goal for both parties. I also believe the site and the administrative efforts behind it are largely unrecognized and un-thanked, and posting the question "What would you change about Daddy's Reviews" implies a lack of appreciation whether it is intended or not. I think that if people want more bells and whistles on the site they should take the time to research how much the development and coding and debugging would cost, and then they should send Daddy the money to implement them. Considering that many of the discussions center on the financial aspects around escorting, the likelihood that any major changes are actually going to be funded appears to be slim.

I can only reiterate that finding and joining this forum was life-changing and that my life would be greatly diminished without it. I wont repeat my little saga.Those of you who have been here longer than I know my story; those who are newer can look up my post "Coming Out Late in Life" posted on 9/19/2015 if they wish. My point today is to remind all of us that we need each other; the day may come when we are fully integrated into society, but it is not here yet. I don't know of any other place that we can have the helpful, honest, serious, loving, rancorous, hilarious and libidinous conversations we have here. As for the age factor, I sense that there are many young men that still need this forum and it's escort reviews due to shyness, physical issues, isolation, fear, etc., and plenty of new people seem to be joining. The forum will evolve as society changes, but needing the support of one's peers is constant. Treasure the Forum and be civil with each other, please.

We don't all feel the need to prove it.

Personally I'd like to see a Forum/Or a Way to Review Clients...Just as much as theres lots Of Great Escorts out there...the Same Could be said for some Clients. Theres also those Clients who arent so Nice...Or just Flake all together.

 

 

On a completely Different note Its the Weekend!

I'm sorry for posting an insensitive thread topic. I didn't realize the implications of my original question, and I am sorry for disrespecting the community. I apologize to those I offended. I hope this thread gets deleted ASAP.

I would like to be able to post personal pictures right from my own phone or computer. I understand the reason why it isn't currently allowed, but heck as long as we're wish listing..

Mike, I don't think you need to apologize. I think your heart is in the right place, it's just that some people take it and run with it.. into the ground.

I would certainly not describe your original post as insensitive or disrespectful. Unfortunately I can't say the same for some of the subsequent posts by other members of the forum. It's a shame really.

No disrespect was intended and none was perceived. Carry on.

Mike, I didn't think there was anything wrong with your initial post in the thread. I thought this post was an oblique way of saying that was exactly what you thought and that the criticisms were a bit precious. The image of you being pursued off stage by a bear (real or figurative) reinforced my initial thoughts that you were not completely serious. Hence my lament above that I'm not a bear. Sorry if I misunderstood. There's a lot of stuff in America lately that I read as irony or satire but that turns out to be neither.

Mike, I, for one, took no offense at your post. You are a highly valued member of the Forum and I appreciate your participation. I'm not sure what happened here, but your original post was well-meant and nonthreatening, in my opinion. It seems to me there has been more agida on the Forum in the last few weeks than in the full six months I have been a member. Maybe it's a side effect of the 2016 election and world-wide turmoil, but the natives here are restless. You did nothing wrong.

I have purposely strayed away from posting lately due to some of the recent threads and the divergent tones they have taken on between some. However, Mike I too do not feel there is anything you should apologize for. Your question was pretty straight forward.

 

Recently I read a book on how to go from good to great, as with anything there is always something anyone of us or any business can be better at. I did not see your question as anything more than how this good site could be even greater.

 

So my two cents is I agree with an earlier poster that anyone should be able to post any question without being handed their butt on a silver platter for asking since it may or may not have been discussed in a different thread many moons ago, as the poster said there is no stupid question. I have learned many things from this forum and appreciate every piece of advice, it only helps each and everyone us be better.

 

Now that I've interjected my two cents I'll be on the lookout for the silver platter heading my way.
