You were rambling on about you getting banned, and some of the
brazilians getting banned etc.
While I don't doubt that you are or were prevented from logging
in to TER it's not because you were talking about some agency's
girls getting banned. Offending posters are at most moderated
and the posts may be deleted. Your post was not deleted.
Let's discuss why your handles were banned. I'm sure there's
more to the story than you've said. We can discuss the
brazilians in another thread...
Let me enlighten you.

PS I'm only half kidding about that last sentence.
Hey Frankie,
It me Smitty. I got banned again without even attempting to post a review and only making that one post you replied to in another thread. I guess you can't critique the board here so I really see no point in continuing this discussion. I'll obviously just keep getting banned and it's too much of a headache to keep re-registering and making new e-mails addresses. You seem to be someone who has a vested interest in protecting the credibility of this website and I prefer not to get into a game of cat and mouse with you over this.
While I'm certainly not one of the more informed around here as I've only been around this business a little over a year. I know what has happened to me. I'm thirty two and certainly old enough to make my own choices based on my own decisions. I rarely if ever post, and it took only a few months of casual reading once or twice a week to figure out that every one of these websites had their favorites and sought to protect their interests. I really don't care who they were nor do I care about the providers I've mentioned. That apparently is the job of some other well known posters on this and other boards. It's not about them anyway. I simply used them as a recent example of how things play out on these boards. I could have used AATR, but I don't know about that situation to comment.
I can certainly find enough of what I want to know without ever using the resources of this website. I wish you and them all the best, but I will look elsewhere from now on.
"You have been Banned!
It is unfortunate that sometimes in our little community it is necessary to ask certain people not to return. We wish you all the best of luck in whatever you choose to do. If you believe our decision was in error please email us at [email protected]"
Once you're banned you're banned.
What I was trying to point out to you was that you got banned
for some other, no doubt good, reason.
Posting on the boards is totally unrelated to your account.
You re-registered, made a post, and then you were banned, again.
But you were banned again becuase of your original banishment,
not because of your posts. Is that clear?
You say, "You seem to be someone who has a vested interest in protecting the credibility of this website...". Of course, I'm
a user of this site and I think every experienced user has the
same vested interest.
You also say "...and I prefer not to get into a game of cat and mouse with you over this." I'm not playing games, just trying
to shed some light on you conspiracy theories.

We all now know how worthless any review from an Asian Massage Parlor is, because of the scores of fake reviews that are posted. Any tampering with the process of agency and independent reviews will make TER worthless. Any hint that someone is getting paid of in kind---carnal bribery, it's called--will damage TER. We all use it, rather than UtopiaGuide and Craigslist because of the high quality of the reviews, except for AMP's. We all appreciate your tenacity, but just show support for whatever decision the TER staff makes and let them know that any lowering of the bar on independent and agency reviews will damage the readership of TER.
The TER handle smitty1972 was posting all kinds of comments in
the thread below that were totally unrelated to the thread.
He SAID he was banned for making comments on the board and then
was talking sh*t about the TER, boards, etc. In reality this
guy was banned for some other reason. I was just trying to
enlighten him to that fact.
Being banned is an account thing and is totally unrelated to
posting, being moderated, etc. Except, of course, for the fact
that you need to log in to post.
peace out,
fr
