I'm in the holiday mood and decided to post about certain things that bug me.  A lot of this is not new to the vets of the Chicago board.

1) Ladies - what is with the excessive photoshop.  It has been ridiculous for some time now.  But, the extreme use of it on the face is getting to be laughable.  And, don't be mad if you get a low appearance score.  The photoshop version of you didn't appear behind the door.

2) Ladies - what is the deal about complaining of an 8 or 9 in looks?  The obsession with being on the TER Top 100 is also getting out of hand.  And this is aimed at the ladies that think they are a 10 in looks, but are really an 8 or lower.  You don't think word gets around sweetheart?  

I find it hilarious when a lady gets a realistic score and then she suddenly gets 10/10 from first time reviewers.  In the meantime, she is trying so hard to remove that 8/9 or 9/9 review.  Quit the bullshit ladies.

3) Guys - learn to research and utilize the tools available to you.  With tineye, Google Image, etc....you should know within seconds if the pics are stolen.  Are you that fucking lazy you can't do a simple task?  Hell, they are tutorials on youtube on how to use tineye and Google Image.

4) It is a sad fact that providers are stalked and harassed by crazed clients.  The stories I've heard are frightening.  I wished there was an easy solution to get rid of these crazy fucks.  Still, don't keep silent about them.  Warn your fellow providers about these nutjobs.

5) Guys - if you have no reviews on TER, don't bother to PM me and ask for intel.  Also, don't ask me stupid questions like how did her pussy taste or did I have a good time [the performance score was a 10].  You make me lose faith in humanity with such nonsense.

Alright, that's all for now.  Carry on.

A little rough on the ladies regarding scores.  They know how goofy clients are about expecting them
Friggin grade inflation.

Newer guys need to use those tools and get used to it, so it'll become second nature. There is a newbie board on TER that addresses many questions you might have. Also discretion is a bigger problem now than I ever remember it being before. I wish some people would take a longer look at their posts before they hit that "post message" button....myself included.  

Nobody wants to see anyone here get in trouble with LE due to a lack of planning or caution. That is why a post like CTP's is important. Just think everything through carefully guys, and chances are very good that you'll remain safe. Don't sweat the screening, it's an important part of the hobby and helps keep everyone safe.

Happy Holidays & Hobbying

Go to the Florida board and read DirtyDaego's.

Happy Holidays and please guys, DO YOUR RESEARCH. Write some reviews and you will be more welcomed when you ask a question of the veterans on this board.

It looks like etched granite, but it does carry the image of the death of common sense.

For now, I will contain my rant to this:

ladies and gentlemen, just because it is how you feel, that does not mean it is how it is, how it should be or that your feelings make any sense to anyone but you.

I get very tired of people posting grand declarations about how things are or should be based on nothing more than their feelings and some made up facts (not necessarily made up by the poster, because you can find stupid crap on the Internet and in the media to support any half-assed idea you might have). Use your heads, and if you really do not have a clue, make it a question, or start a discussion, rather than telling us you have found the one, sure truth.

Hmm, like CTP it seems I am mostly complaining about stupidity.

This board is rapidly losing its review integrity. Way too many 9s and 10s on looks and performance. Ladies are very effective in getting unflattering reviews removed. Pretty much the only reviews you see nowadays are from the percentage of clients who are smitten with the lady. Reviews have become nothing more than hype machines.

It's pretty bad when providers consider 8's less than desirable or a downright insult. All of these 10/10 reviews make me wonder what providers with straight 10's down the page are doing to earn perfect scores. I have a pretty good idea and therefore providers with pages of 10's and $600+ rates will never see me. That's a dangerous combo and I intend to have a long and healthy life.

I'll never understand why providers aspire to be in the top 100 because it's pretty clear to me how they got there.
