Don't want to offend anyone but where are the discussions - this board is starting to look like CL ads. Although I enjoy looking at the ads for visiting/local providers (especially the pictures), lately I seen nothing but that type of review on this board. Just to check, I looked at other city/state boards and saw a little more discussions. Are there any type of topics that the Carolinas can discuss? or Should discussions be routed to the general discussion board. Sorry, if anyone takes this the wrong way- I have nothing but love for you... Hey, here is a topic, is this the new marketing strategy for providers-do you get more clients this way? or hobbyist, do you prefer to look for providers here or read reviews, or their personal website ads - what is your percentage?

To illicit responses from the Carolina's Board with limited success. It's just not a very active board although I wish that were otherwise. Please don't compare this to CL either....in my opinion we are far removed from that even though most of the threads are ads.

between three states NC,SC,and GA (I believe), the opportunity for great discussions are endless.

Do not compare this Adult board to CL. The only thing one should purchase on CL is furniture and garden supplies.

Why would you get your  HOE  where you get your WHOE?

I must confess I have been spending way to much time on the general board. I find the topics engaging and by the time I hop over here I am visually spent, verbally written out and my knuckles hurt.

Right now my  eyes are burning from looking at the screen to long all ready.

I will try to be better about comming up with some topics for the carolinas.

Time go and feed the cat.

For the most part, I enjoy this board. It has very little drama (such as the K-9 board has). I agree that it is a bit lacking in discussion. However, some boards on TER are  a bit too "chit chatty" for my tastes. I hate scrolling thru long threads on guys day dreaming of who or what they wanna see or do. I like things short and sweet.  

As far as your question concerning where a hobbyist looks for providers. I find TER quite helpful in helping me decide who I might see next. I usually check to see which ladies have new reviews. The search option on here is quite helpful. Sometimes a search brings up ladies that have great reviews that  I have never heard of before. Posts by providers helps to draw my attention, but I still depend on reviews as my #1 source for info. in determining who I want to see.  As far as providers websites, I like to check it out for pics and prices. I dont want to hear music or have to sit and wait for a website to load. For me, a simple website with pics, prices and schedule is all I need.

Great advice Doc. I guess it could get a little chit chatty. I also see the advantage of the reviews, You can read what providers are good at before you even meet them. Takes a little out of the gamble. Thanks

I use all three, the post for current info, the website for all the details, and the reviews to help make a decision.  For what it’s worth, my all time favorites all had less then 10 reviews each.  If we read between the lines, and do our research, we can find what were looking for.

I agree with DrD, some boards are too chatty --DC is one example -- but this board could use some more juice.

I start with ads, discussion board, website then reviews.  Ads tell me who's active and available.  Discussion board is where I find more established regulars.  Lastly I go to websites of my favorite providers if they did not have an ad.  Sometimes I reverse this order if I already know what I'm looking for.  

If something catchs my interest, I ALWAYS look at reviews.  ALWAYS.  And if I don't see a review, I'll ask the provider if she has one.  I've been burned too many times.  I will TOFTT on occassion.  But I'm mature enough now to walk away if the situation does not feel right to me.

We are uipscale posters,re-- when the girls will be in what area, also a few cool posts every now and then, a few good jokes, and questions to join in on ... and no pigs.....also a more UPSCALE board
with less "trashing" and GOSIP" and DRAMA
You have  not been on this  long or viewd this board
lost? have you!!

CL sucks and every on gets on it for a laugh! ALONG with LE
This board is informative and lots of gents find useful info on it and it is entertaing also !!

HAVE YOU TRIED THE "NEWBIE" board!!?

As stated earlier, my intent was not to insult any of the fine and interesting ladies who post on this site. Being a newbie at this, I was trying to gain some valuable knowledge within the Carolinas board verse using the general discussion board or newbie board. As a newbie at this type hobby, I discovered I saw more ads then discussions. Now since I have been visiting this site daily, I can see the advantages of the variety of information brought to this discussion board.  So, for all those (with red faces) who look at this post more than just a curious question/statement and maybe a good discussion - I CONCUR, CL SUCKS, and TER RULES! Peace and Love Everyone! EOM
