Dude don't you miss the great times when the board was relevant with K-girl posts. No one is running away they just found a better place. And you my friend no longer have anything to complain about so you have to make it up. The board is so boring now isn't it no more fun and the K-Girls were the best part of it. Long live the K-DOLLS you looser.
...and holding your breath until you turned blue because TER wouldn't allow a competitor to be used as a link by the K-girls. Why don't you read this thread again and see who was right, me or you and all the K-crybabies...
...bad punctuation. Was the period the only punctuation mark you ever learned how to use? Speaking of loosers (sic), I suggest you delete your post to save yourself further embarrassment.
... and even well into the time I was still an active participant here on TER as both hobbyist and Moderator, this was one of the most active and vibrant discussion boards on TER. The community was tight, the discussions were relevant... although back then, Robertini was already our house mascot so some things don't change.
But the nature of the industry in LA did. A combination of many factors including a failing American economy, a huge increase in sex-trafficking out of Asia (I believe there are far more North Korean nationals working as K-girl sex workers than anyone realizes, but that's an argument for the P&R board) and other mitigating geopolitical and economic circumstances led to the proliferation of K-girl houses which led to the inundation of the availability of cheap sex via Craigslist, Backpage, and other less savory routes.
I do not judge anyone who patronizes the K-girls. Many of them are doing exactly what they want to do, and more power to them. But let's not lose sight of the reality of the dynamics involved in the K-girl phenomenon.
And let's not lose sight of the fact it was the inundation of the K-girl shills and their obsessive fanboys that ruined this discussion board by making every damned post about the same fucking subject....
"Who's your favorite K-girl and why?".
Let's not lose sight of the fact it was these same K-girl shills and fanboys who by virtue of gaming the TER posting system would systematically cause any providers post who wasn't part of their little band of Gash-vertisers to be bumped down to page 2. As a Moderator, it made for a shitload more work for me than I signed up for, having to sift through all the bullshit to figure out which posts were real, and which were just shills. got easier though once we were able to start tracing IP addresses... which happened to coincide with a lessening of posting traffic.
The numbers made me look bad until statistics and minimal research verified that while the board was less than half as active in terms of total hits, the content was far more relevant with three or four robust thread exchanges per page instead of 25 "WHO'S YOUR FAVORITE K-GIRL AND WHY?"
With all due respect oceanpacific9, you don't have a clue what you're talking about.
all we need is another of our favorite posters back...the one and only Robertini!! Always enjoyed his posts
Like I said, though...glad you are back, and hopefully you will post more often. Your posts have always been well written and insightful.
Good to see you for a change, Z.
olocks mate. If the the DB was destroyed it during your and the others thankfully removed moderators tenure . The best thing TER did was remove the local moderators and the provider ads that flooded the first page of board and one has to go through pages 2 or 3.
Don't try to rewrite history when the facts are available at our finger tips. Besides if any groups by their post dominated the forum good for them . For those who don't like what is posted it is either tough luck or they use same opportunities and privileges as anyone else to get their views across.
You know nothing & care even less about human trafficking because if you did you would not exploit it so expediently and you would be aware that 70% of HT in this country is domestically generated. But given the source of this post I have no reason to be surprised.
Your reputation proceeds you and if there is a grain of truth of the allegations against you then you have no place on this or any other board.

I won't pretend to know all the drama that went on behind the scenes . i don't know much of anything, but I do think the kgirls were part of our scene and not having it here is a hole in this section. It is too bad. I relied on ter for kgirl info, and knew that the info i got here was at least more reliable than anywhere else.
...but what the K-fanboys did was simply hype and shill for the K-girls, making it seem as if they walked on water.
There was no drama behind the scenes; it played itself out on the board. If there's a hole on this board, it's because the K-fanboys opted to leave for another place where no one bursts their bubble and makes them face reality. The K-fanboys are still free to post here if they choose to.
In fact, the head K-fanboy recently went so far as to post on TER urging TER members to go to another site and write reviews there for the K-girls.
Thank OP9 you for posting this and fear not the K-doll patrons and enthusiasts can post as they surely will when they feel like it. This is despite the nuisance of the habitual lying paper clown bubbas , so desperate for attention, who make a living of hijacking K-doll related threads (as they attempted with my Irene post ) but thankfully current moderators have gotten wise to these cheap second rate puerile tricks.
Funny how those who had nothing to do with and are not privy to the process are giving opinion about how the K-dolls reviews have returned to TER. The hater in chief keeps pushing the same misinformation about reaction to the interruption of the K-girl reviews on TER , ignoring what I and others posted at the time.
(BTW notice how they changed the focus of your OP )
Everyone can see what's happened to this DB since the k-girl discussions moved elsewhere. But who cares? This is the first time I've logged in here in weeks, and I can see I missed very little.
It's sad really. This used to be THE place for good intel on the LA hobby scene, k-girls or otherwise. That is no longer the case.
