I have tried participating in photo threads, the guys like em, so I try, but ALL of our photos have our watermark, it has to, we have had people try to snatch them and use them as their own on other Boards, so LP how do we get around that. Not trying to be difficult, but it is what it is, Can I post their stage name on the photo as a watermark?
Thank you,
M
DarkLove & I have been lax in our duties, and today's photo thread is an example of the inmates running the asylum. So, let me restate the rules and perhaps slip a couple new ones in at the same time.
* Visiting ladies may post only within a week of a posted visit
* No links may be included in your post
* No watermarks that act as advertising for you or your site
* One post per thread per provider
* No drooling posts
Since I'm on a roll, let's keep the posts looking for a provider on the In Search of board. Oh, and so I can tell you in advance, aliases are allowed and I interpret their use quite liberally. I view unfavorably discussions of how people posting with an alias are somehow less valuable. If you see something that offends you and it was posted by an alias, either comment on the subject matter or don't, but I will be pulling all posts that bitch about alias use and moderating the offending complainer.
posts by aliases.
Just because a person wishes to remain anonymous by posting via an alias doesn't mean that his opinions shouldn't be heard or are any less valid than those offered by non-aliases.
On a side note, I also believe that a just because person chooses not to publish any reviews doesn't mean that his opinions shouldn't be heard or are any less valid than those offered by published reviewers.

I've never understood why people get their nose out of joint about them anyway. I've also never understood why the viewpoint, TER commentary is somehow of no value by those of us who choose not to review. There are plenty of us posting with no reviews. It appears only when one of us shares an unpopular opinion, you hear a response along the lines of, you have nothing to contribute because you have no reviews. If TER felt the same way, it would be a membership requirement.

Endorsing and affirming the the uSe of allias is approved, encouraged, and protected.
However any reply to refute or disagree will end up in penalties and harse moderation.
Congrats guys, you finally found a way to win an argument with BW and BB
trying to win any arguments against anyone in this forum.
The point I'm trying to make is it's a very slippery slope when one discriminates against other forum members, by declaring their opinions invalid or inconsequential, based on their use of an alias or their lack of published reviews.
Where does one draw the line? What if the discrimination against forum members eventually extended to those who used a particular agency? Or perhaps those who see a particular provider?
And then there are the 7 protected Federal classes as defined by the EEOC (race, religion, gender, etc.).
If one starts discriminating on a specific basis, it usually leads to expanded forms of discrimination.

1st, I agree with all the rules as LP and I already discussed them beforehand.
2nd, there's got to be some kind of punishment for offenders, otherwise, we're just wasting our time here. so, now that you have the rules, offenders will be moderated for a short week until you have memorized all the photo thread rules 
finally, guys, no matter how hawt your provider tells you you are...you're not. we don't need to see any photos of you. Don't try to start photo threads either, all the ladies and agencies know this is a luxury for them and allows them to virtually bypass the 7 day ad rule. They don't need the guys to remind them that they need to create one.
Rules.....No wonder i am on permanent moderation...It should just be called.....permanation...
permanent moderation personally.
I know I don't.
Post that are vicious, malious, deflamatory, insulting, offensive and rude with no purpose but to create hostile environment for the ladies are acceptable and encouraged by you, especially if posted by allias.
Post which are fun spirited, playful, and designed to encourage the hobby and interactions with the ladies are frowned upon and are to be punished because they may inadvertently promote unfunded advertising.
However blantant shills by either of you are acceptable excercise of power for the good of the overall community.
Are you members of the Obama Labor Relations PAC? Perhaps honorary members of the Dick Cheney Hunting Lodge supporting free press.
I am curious how long this post will stay active in your Goering inspired take "a Jew to lunch" freedom of information act. I am guessing not very long because I did not use an allias, but we shall see the degree to which you moderate my account.
No offense Advisor, but it appears you're twisting their statements for some self serving agenda. Perhaps I'm wrong, but they said nothing of the kind. By the way, you never defined plaguerat for me so please do. I can find no such word in the English language, and being you nominated me "picture perfection plaguerat", it's only courteous you provide a definition

I'm a night owl. BTW, whatever happened to him?
Thanks for clearing that up.
However, I may be old but certainly not that old. And although I'm fairly good on the drums, I've never considered myself a musical entertainer.
No steak house recommendations either. Folks can explore restaurant reviews/questions by yelping. Threads like that on here just makes me sick. Furthermore, lately, it seems like there have been more threads started by dudes than ladies.
Habitual dude posters should be limited to one post (new thread) a week too. I don't want to sift through all the dude post just to make an "informed decision."

Bunched into one thread. Seems every few threads is another lazy dude asking for help because they either haven't the skill or desire to do a little cross referencing.
The steakhouse thread was quite humorous and annoying. I can't believe how many responded.
on the GD Board too, pretty please.

I realize my opinion doesn't matter and DL or LP will give you the answer shortly.
But I feel like the stage name watermark is the perfect solution. I don't know what would be the problem with that.

I envision the forthcoming posts where gents take shots at ladies' pics that don't pass their muster, based on their subjective criteria. And even better, they get to do so with anonymity from the handle used to make appointments.
As for stated position on alias use, I am equally sure those with an agenda will applaud this decision. I assume the rule about posting with an alias and another handle in the same thread is equally tolerated now? I would appreciate some clarification please.
Fortunately, I have a long plane ride ahead to think of alias handles so I can be an even bigger ass with impunity. Of course the bar for crass rudeness is set pretty high. At least based on the thread below, and yes, it was posted with an alias (not taking issue, just stating fact), in which calling someone out with derogatory terms is perfectly okay.
And to Omega - please - this is an illegal activity and to quote legal protection rights on discrimination is just absurd. The fact that there exists moderation at all should tell you that.
Bottom line, I am sure this new approach will generate increased forum traffic of the highest caliber. Sure am glad I renewed that VIP membership. Can I get a refund please?
in your post is quite... interesting.
First, I'm unaware of this illegal activity that you're referring to. I simply compensate a provider for her time and companionship only. Whatever should happen behind closed doors is the result of a mutual decision between 2 consenting adults.
Second, you're confusing VIP membership benefits with one that's afforded to the public at large. Your membership allows you access to parts of reviews that non-members can't see, as well as use of the PM system. Your membership does not confer anything special as far as the forums go.
To infer that your VIP membership has lost its luster because of how you dislike the way the message board is run makes little sense at all.

My reasoning for VIP is none of your business. I am quite sure there are a lot of things of which you are unaware. And yet, despite all evidence to the contrary in your posts, I keep holding out hope that no one can be that stupid. In your case, I guess I am ever the optimist.
...paying for VIP you have access to reviews, PMs, review search engine & alias's.....and you may choose to post and/or read the boards or not.
It’s a privilege to let people post un moderated, not a right!
But I am waiting for answers to the other questions. Whether I choose to maintain a VIP in this type of atmosphere or not remains to be seen. And it is none of your business either. I guess the subtle point is lost on some. I believe I have adequately voiced my feeling on that issue.
But thank you for highlighting who has what"privileges," this has been very enlightening in the context of the original post.
Do you really think TER's admin cares whether you fork over 30.00 per month? Your underlying threat of pulling the plug on paid membership because you find the atmosphere less than savory will make no difference to them.
My guess is you pay the 30.00 per month because it's better for your bottom line. Three providers monthly is certainly a better avenue in terms of VIP priviledges. Especially for someone like you who complains about board content, and the fact you gotta pay to read it. But I'm also guessing you want to keep your VIP privileges so you're able to stay the course with the alias posters you bitch about.
Over the years there have been so many threats by hobbyists and providers to cancel paid memberships because they don't like the rules, yet --- still pay in spite of "said" arbitrary or unrestrained exercise of power by the mods. PM, alias, and juicy details must be intoxicating for some people. Pick your poison I suppose.
You made a post about preferring to watch paint dry than engaging in "board combats." Whatever the hell that is. Why did you delete it? Did you not like the response that you must really like watching paint dry?
Makes no difference - I have no further use for you or your commentary. Not that I ever really did. But you can have the last word so you won't have to worry about deleting it when someone points out the obvious. Here, let me help give you some fodder - don't you find it ironic that you don't do reviews, you don't have PM, you don't pay VIP, you jump on anyone whose posts differ than your opinion, you rail on and on on about what TER should be based on your perception and yet you have the temerity to lecture me on TER? All this time I had you pegged as part of some underground TER welfare sect that expects others to support them.
I have voiced my opinion and in the end, that is all I really can do. Shame others choose not to voice their commentary that they shared last night and in PM's. Unlike you, I really can receive PMs. Besides, my comment on this topic was not directed at you in the first place. I had no idea you could also speak for the mods too. But in typical fashion - you had to jump in. So have at it skippy.
Actually because after you contacted your butt buddy to jump to your defense, I didn't feel the need to keep the issue ongoing. I believe DL and LP have made the rules crystal clear. Like em, or lump em. Lol
....continue to pay for VIP, & not read reviews, do not use any alias's, & never PM, but only read the Atlanta & General Boards Boards & get more & more & more angry untill you explode!!!!
How many hands go up for that kids, let's have a vote on it.
And even better, they get to do so with anonymity from the handle used to make appointments. - some of us don't use a TER handle at all when scheduling with ladies. It's not required with most ladies, and certainly might factor into whether they prefer or not to schedule at all.
I assume the rule about posting with an alias and another handle in the same thread is equally tolerated now? - where in the mods post do you see any reference to this? You need "clarification" for your own minuscule assumption?
Bottom line, I am sure this new approach will generate increased forum traffic of the highest caliber. - it may very well bring forth more traffic indeed. An opportunity for more people to feel they can participate knowing the moderators aren't going to curry favor with some individuals who think their popular opinions should determine the topics and content on the board.
Some are so quick to throw out the word agenda. Check your own. If you don't like alias posters, back stabber's, differing opinions, then let your membership expire a more desirable place that's custom tailored for you, and you only. Ever consider blogging? You can express your feelings, control your content, and not be forced to read thoughts you don't agree with. It will be all about YOU, which appears to be better suited for you than a forum visited by many with their own thoughts and ideas. Get over it. It's a "public forum"
Sure am glad I renewed that VIP membership. Can I get a refund please? - probably not, but you can write three or more reviews monthly then you can have free VIP access.

Correct, I would prefer not to associate with such individuals.
You seem to defend your right to a differing opinion very well, but it does not appear you are as tolerant when others dissent with your opinion. And clearly, you seem to have an issue with voicing disagreement with another opinion without the use of derogatory content or attempts at belittling.
Drooling is different than a reply. I'll send you a great example of drooling via PM and I think you'll understand where I'm coming from.
There is no change in any rule regarding aliases. Hope that helps.
But as you know, this too shall pass and those who attack the messenger rather than the message will one day experience karma. Just let it go.
Karma, attack, shooting messengers. Seriously? I gotta wonder what kind of fool takes this board shit to heart.
I could care less. The only concern I have is the lady I want to visit next. But I gottta address GAG, bw, pwilley, and Jimmy, just to name a few---It's interesting that I appear to have the power to get under your skin. Just look at BW's posts. He's fully engaged and angry, to the point he's asking me why i deleted my posts! A bit obsessive. Its like the twirp on the schoolyard playground who throws stones then runs behind the cover of teacher (in his case, butt buddies) for safety ha ha. You got quite a lineup of white knights running to your defense. Your thoughts on karma and all the other bs is too freaking funny. God help any of us if Karma's gonna be a factor in our lives. Escorts pairing up with old married men/vice versa ain't gonna give you good karma, duh. Cheating on your wife or girlfriend, tapping into your childrens college fund so you can get your cock sucked by a hot lady ain't gonna give anyone good karma, so please take your theory to someone who buys into it.
This is a public forum, nothing more, nothing less. I'm just thankful I don't get so wrapped up in this shit that I make it part of my everyday civilized way of thinking.
...who went too far with pursuing one of the ladies to be 'more than just a client' to her?
If I remember correctly, the lady blocked your calls and wanted nothing else to do with you which led to your self-imposed 'hiatus'...that lasted all of 4 days? 5 days maybe?
That considered and the fact that you post multiple times daily, stating that you 'don't get wrapped up in this shit' today on this very thread is pretty funny...
Enjoy your mom's basement, squeaky nuts.
Sir Cumalot
And although I made a mistake with getting emotionally warped over a beautiful lady, I do not have even one emotion invested on this board. My hiatus was from women, not the entertainment factor found here. This place is full of surprises, and I find it useful to pass the time in my boredom.
You can dissect my posts all day long, as bw did but I'm still here because I honestly don't care whether you agree or disagree with my statements. Theyre mine, just as yours are yours. I disagree with most of what I read here. So what, who cares.

...I have no interest in dissecting your lame posts. I don't agree or disagree with your statements...there just not that interesting and I could care less. If these other guys want to waste their time with you, so be it.
I happened on this thread, read it down, and realized that you're full of shit. And I'm calling you out, punk...for entertainment in my' boredom'.
The sheer fact that in your 'boredom' you'd 'find it useful' to be entertained by this board (with so many better options to fill your time with) shows that you're a total loser. And no better than the guys you try to put down...loser.
Now fuck off,
Sir Cumalot
Or maybe I am just jealous that you said it even better than me? lol
Well fucking said
If you fell used, so fucking be it.
I don't really spend much time thinking about douchebags like you, but you are handy to have around when I feel like giving someone shit, you certainly merit any and all abuse you seem to get around here. I am so glad it seems to satisfy you somehow.
I also have friends here, but that's probably a concept lost on you. Especially because, asshole that I am, some people around here, even the women actually seem to like me, Go figure.
Is there anyone here that likes you? excepting your little buddy Omega of course
and yes it is of some importance to be liked, I don't think I would want to hang around somewhere where I clearly was not wanted. I don't care if anyone in particular likes me, but if I were considered a pariah like you, I think I would find greener pastures, but that's just me. You seem to like being despised.
Spot on Gambler. But in all the threads like this it's perfectly understandable why the ladies I know don't jump into defend me. I don't need it. OTOH, I haven't seen any ladies jump innthese threads to defend you, or those who share your opinion. You're a crass, rude mother fucker in my opinion, but it's just my little ole opinion. Like assholes, we all got one.
I really didn't invite you to comment at all, but since it's the absolute first thing you ever said on here that was at least partially accurate, I'll give you a pass. Damn straight GaG, bw,and Jimmy are my friends and quite a few others that you failed to mention, but that's ok. One day you might find a friend and then you'll understand the joy of friends. Good luck with that.
Hey Little Phill and Darklove,
As Monica stated too, I put watermarks on my pictures because they were being stolen and used by others numerous times. I am not trying to use the watermark as an advertisement. I didn't realize that people thought so and when it was brought to my attention that the watermarks looked like a big advertisement across the model, I reduced the size of it so it wasn't so distracting, yet I still feel there is a need for it. Nobody likes people copying their pics and using them to decieve others.
I like participating in the photo threads, I think it's good for the guys and girls. What can we watermark our pictures with that is acceptable to post on the photo threads?
T
I'm OK with the lady's stage name, or a subdued watermark. I'm not trying to promote people stealing the hard work and expense of anyone's photos. I'll be reasonable so long as the posters are.
