Increased participation in the forum?

[+ José Soplanucas]

I have the feeling more members are on line and more people are posting. I am not sure I am right, that is what I feel, so I am checking whether or not I am the only one.

It would be interesting if I am right, as many were predicting in January the demise of the forums when the reviews website got temporary frozen.

By the way, we are getting closer to the 6 months dead line set by Daddy.

My impression is the same, more folks are posting lately, and posting more.

Isn't it interesting? The assumption has always been that the hook were the reviews and the forums were just a secondary addition.

In past years, I have noted a lull around the holidays and in the summer. It is nice to see more participation.

New to the forums - new to hiring - have learned A LOT!

 

Have had erotic massages with serious real massage as main part of session for decades:)

It excites me. I always defended the worth of these forums per se, even without the reviews website.

[AlexThomas]

I have really enjoyed these forums so far. I have even gotten to meet a few stellar people. I am happy to see it getting more and more active.

Me too, although I remember some abysmal statistics on "click through" and traffic from the review site vs. the forum. At one time (maybe different nowadays) the forum got significantly less views.

Interesting. I do not have all the information, but the current increase in participation questions any easy reading of that data.

Agree, my info is based on something said many years ago. I wonder if current uptick might be *because* there aren't currently reviews?

[+ José Soplanucas]

I have a huge increase of hits in my inbox with private messages, and I am happy to say I have fostered a few successful hot meetings the last couple of weeks. I guess we are discovering how much information we can obtain here combining 411s in public with private conversations. I think it is even better than the reviews, that are censored because they are public.

Ya, @latbear4blk . There's not a lot of places for a guy to ask the mechanics of hiring an escort.

 

Conversely, I'm guessing escorting would be a lonelier business in terms of collegiality if the pros didn't have this place to share notes.

 

Those things aside, it's an interesting and diverse place in terms of personalities and content.

 

The format is pretty dated, but I'm old enough to remember Usenet so I like it. I'd be disappointed if content were lost during updates, @Guy Fawkes . A fifteen year discussion of a subculture is too precious a thing to lose.

Absolutely. This data base would be a treasure for the future anthropologists.

I understand the format is dated, but I like it simple and without distractions.

I was thinking the exact same thing about anthropologists! So much history is found in "ephemera." Someone just published the writings of Walt Whitman on physical fitness he found in a column in a microform newspaper from the 19th Century.

This website is a portal to the sex for pay culture not only in the USA, but all over the world. Check the international travel forums. And what about the arts and the politics forum. And the fetishes one. One pearl after the other for the researchers of the future, looking for clues, digging in the melting ruins left after the nuclear holocaust of 2017.

Ever see the movie AI? I rewatched it a few months ago and it is a great movie--which I hated at the time it was in theaters, primarily for the last twenty or so minutes which your comment calls to mind.

I think I have watched most sci-fi movies, including AI. I didn't love it, but I did like it. Digression closed.

I think the increase is great. Because I am sexually stupid in many ways it has become a source of information for me. And if I can't actually post a particularly embarrassing question, I can try to PM someone and see if I can bear the embarrassment with only one person. I am eternally grateful to those who have answered me and imparted their wisdom. And of course it is always nice to see that many guys like the same sorts of butts I do (you know who you are!)

[Jose305]

I'm new to all this so I googled gay escort reviews and found you guys. I've learned A LOT BTW. You guys gave great tips and personal recommendations on escorts which I'll be using tomorrow .

I like big butts and I cannot lie.

You, my brother cannot deny.

When a man walks in with an itty bitty waist,

that muscular round thing in your face,

 

you get sprung,

want to pull up tough,

'cause you notice that butt was stuffed,

deep in the g string he's wearing,

 

You are hooked and you can't stop staring;

Oh TBT you know I am witchya;

stare so much its like a picture,

your homeboys gonna warn ya;

but that big butt gets ya horned up;

 

TBT loves back.

I'm more an occasional viewer than a poster but IMO, the same dozen or so guys are commenting on anything and everything as if they have waaay too much time on their hands.

And while everyone is entitled, what's with all the responses by guys who have no idea what they're talking about.

There are many who start their response to a post by "I've never hired him, but..." or "I haven't seen that but..." or annoyingly, the excessive need for clients chiming in on all those "ASK AN ESCORT" posts. It's as if their 2 cents must be paid!

Many threads turn into a boring 2 or 3 man debate, most threads eventually veer off topic, negativity often destroys the discussion (guilty) and there are soooo many questions a simple forum search or google search would answer in 10 seconds. Yeah, yeah, I admit this post goes against your spirit of camaraderie and community - apologies.

Having said all that, I am so in love with these forums, terribly amused by the topics and only wish wealth and health on (most) everyone who partakes...
