So, I know that the comments were getting a bit out of hand but the deletion of a few threads on this board in the last week seems a little off. Isn't the subject of those thread basically partially why this board exists?

That is one of the benefits of this board.   If I had not seen it before it was deleted, I would have no idea what happened and could have potentially walked into a bad situation.    

I sure wish someone from TER would explain why that post/thread was deleted.

LE is not through yet with their purge; absence of news reports is bad indicator.  Agencies and girls affiliated with agencies are especially vulnerable right now.

If you read the TER privacy agreement you will discover that any information requested by LE will be supplied. Providers and hobbyists have no protection as far as I can tell.

that the media would sit on a story as a favor to LE ?

I know usually the media loves to sensationalize such a story .

Due to the fact some high level folks involved.  News media doesn't want to get sued for defamation of character.

I think its all going to be ok.
stick with your gut.
Do your research.
Set up your own network.

Following the advice above will keep you out of trouble...it does not say "anything you say will help your case" remember that.

Let the lawyer do the talking. If you are not required to come in for questioning don't do it.

Uncle Leo can gain cooperation of news editors by first appealing to their sense of duty to assist in protecting these "poor girls forced into trafficking", and secondly by promising a much bigger story if news editors cooperate with the execution of their plan to protect even more "poor innocent girls".  Personally I am waiting until the news breaks to see how it all goes down before treading in agency waters.

Are a lot of members using phone numbers that can be traced back to them directly?  I personally use google voice, like most of us, and determining what number that forwards to would take a witch hunt and request to google.  Even on texts from that number, I never use my last name or state anything other than preferences for outfit or looks of the lady.  I learned all these things on this board so I'm curious if mongers are really that exposed.

Hey yall,

It's unfortunate this has happened, safety, screening and learning to keep your eyes and ears open is crucial. Please do not answer calls or texts from the spoken businesses. Lady know to never get tooo comfortable about screening and always keep your ear to the ground. I hope we can all come together and support the best interest of the ladies and gents.

Love you all, be safe and keep warm!
