I posted my opinion on this topic in a thread below.  Others came behind and suggested my thoughts "might" work for a a couple of weeks at best, but then it would fizzle out.  Others suggested it was too difficult to manage and to keep it simple.  Okay, not gonna argue - I can see the reasoning in those that posted those sentiments.

So, much like when I am fixated on a specific lady's anatomical area and it obviously isn't working for her - time for a new plan.  - Screw the cutesy / forced themes and change the body parts.

Monday - Ass shots
Tuesday - Tit shots
Wednesdays - Facial expressions
Thursday - Legs and/or feet
Friday - location shots - bath, beach, sunbathing
Saturday - Dress up or down - the entire body shot (nude, evening wear, lingerie - etc.)
Sunday - Accessorize  (adult toy, stuffed animal, jewelry, whatever)

Clearly, there seems to be a preference for the candid feel over the pro photographer shot, but I would think if someone starts posting the same pic over and over that this would be reflected in lack of views.  Surely, we guys are capable of deciding for ourselves whose pics we wish to look at versus ignore.

And once again - I creep back into my lurker corner.

Regardless of what gets posted, who doesn't like to see a hot woman in various sexy poses? That's not the point. The point is that I don't even bother clicking on the posts anymore, unless they say that they are new pics. Considering the proliferation of cell phone cameras, and the ever decreasing prices of point and shoots, please take some new pics! It takes all of a few minutes to snap a shot, and upload it to TER. It will help drum up interest, as well as bring some heat to the boards.

We're wasting way to much energy on this, and also the number of lovely ladies posting has dwindled down to just a few (meaning the number of posters). (I also like bwcoyote Idea above)

First, It should comply with TER rules (all be it, I'm taking great liberties with the definition) I do have "Theme" in the thread title.  

Second, Ladies can pretty much post what ever pics they choose.  The "better" the pic, the more guesses She'll get, hence an incentive to be creative with the pics & not just keep posting the same pictures.  (Oh, I'm a bad boy)  

Third, It should give ALL of us more time to "ogle" and spend less time wondering what is happening to one of my favorite threads.

I've made many calls based on original pictures that I've seen of various girls.  It kind of gives you a new angle of looking at them -- or even a better view of what they thought were their flawless professional pics.

I think it was thinking too far to do really niche themes.  Keep it simple

Your 5 weekly days
Cell Phone Snapshots (always great)
Leggy Day (good if you're worthy of being there)
Ass Shot (mmm hmmm)
Playful Poses (good to show personality)
Sexy Pose Day
(is that simple...thats all that we want to see for the most part)

In terms of custom....
Obviously on the big seasonal or local event dates do a theme one one day for the week in question (Halloween, Christmas, ... even dragoncon to stir up some convention/nerd business -- ive always wanted to see a lady in a superhero costume lol)

Just stick with the 5 themes the old mods spelled out! 5 days, not 7.
Wanna get creative? Get creative within the theme.
Multiple members should report lame theme posts or pics and have them removed.
Only way to teach the stupid.

Of course there was whining and complaining about it then, so that will probably continue.

Sounds good to me

Why not have the guys come up with the photo threads of what they'd like to see, instead of the ladies or agencies? Or maybe body part theme photos? Just my two cents

Problem is that guys can't agree any more than the ladies or agencies can.  

We (collectively and generically referring to ALL of us) are all great at the bitching about something, but we seem to be really piss poor at agreeing on actually doing something about it.  Some seem worried about being perceived as bossy, some seem worried about being ridiculed, some seem more interested with getting under someone's skin than getting into someone's skin, and some just don't give a flip.  Ultimately, we have plenty of Monday morning quarterbacks, but very few Sunday quarterbacks.

I like the theme threads and that is the ONLY reason why I continue to post in threads about them.  And yes, I especially appreciate the candid, impromptu shots.  I would be willing to step onto the proverbial playing field for a week at best, but otherwise - call me apathetic.

Threads are better than posting same old photos of the same old agency person. Variety is spice of life and most of us are here for the variety.

Like these guys can agree on anything? Ever?!?
So who decides what guy to listen to?

What's so difficult with sticking to the 5 days that worked before?
Go look at Florida. The ladies there have it all figured out.
It's NOT difficult. Why keep trying to make it so?

TER should suspend it for 30 days here on the Atlanta board.

Then you have plenty of time to discuss amongst yourselves & agree on the theme days. After all, this is a discussion board.

I know...the Shills will have a hissy fit.
Don't worry Shills, you can go to the ad board & Shill the ads to get your daily Shill fix.

Ya'll are just a mess, lol.

EOM

Why not follow FL's guidelines for the themes, re-review the Admin's guidelines for theme days and if somebody is posting the same photo, or breaking the rules, use the "Report This Post" button versus complaining.

This morning I saw the photo Theme thread by Princess Bella. Later I came back and saw the one by Jasmin. I wondered what happened to the one by Princess Bella. I scrolled down and saw "Oh it's still there." Then wondered why there were two? I thought which one was done first? I checked the time stamps. (I'm never sure if they are correct but anyway I checked.) Princess Bella's was first according to the time stamp and by it's place on the page. I was left wondering why a second one was started.

Later I come back and Jasmin's thread is gone and there is a post by her asking "Guys, what are we going to do about the photo threads?" Now I'm more confused.

I have two questions. ( Not blaming or passing judgement nor pointing fingers. Merely seeking understanding.)

Why did Jasmin start another thread?
Why since there have been two or more discussions on this in the last day or so is it being discussed again?

One suggestion, someone go find DD's guidelines for Photo Theme threads from when he was a moderator and follow those guidelines and of course follow TER guidelines for theme days.

Have you been informed by admin why yours was pulled?

I like naked girls.  I have funds.   Creative NEW pics stir me up to see naked girls. It ain't rocket surgery.  

Re: I love showing my ass! (eom)

You have a beautiful ass.   And boobies.  And smile.    I gots to meet you

Florida women know how to handle something simple as theme days and keep it exciting and fun.
Just because YOU don't put effort into pics because you don't care for the theme, isn't anyone's issue but yours.

Atlanta isn't doing anything but showing that it remains comical and dysfunctional.
It's not rocket science. It's tits and ass pics.

Stick with structure. Try to show that Atlanta is capable of more than chaos.

the man's view while he is doing daty or doggies or standing mish and of course who could forget a picture looking down while the girl is looking up before during or after a bj.

juist a few ideas.

Answer: That’s what Jasmin does when she doesn’t agree and there many that support her here. Call them what you may.

My one experience trying to schedule with Jasmin was enough to last life time and it is lasting a life time. Jasmin has posted same providers photo more than once the same week and regularly every week.
