Since guys have questions about ladies' legitimacy, and ladies need to work/eat/etc. (see pearlier thread), maybe a thread for questions would work:

It could have a fair format, along the lines of:

"I was thinking of seeing [lady's name/TER ID/latest ad], but [something] made me wonder if she's legit. She does have [reviews/ads with believable locations + dates/etc.], but I was still wondering, so can any guys or gals help out?"

The something that made you wonder could be (if you were me) pics that aren't real or look too good, indiscreet things in her ad, or something in the reviews that seemed made-up.

It probably won't help the ladies too much, since those of you who read the boards already do a pretty good job. But you might get a better idea of what made some of your ads work better than others. Maybe we'd get  
more playful creative ads

And new guys trying to learn what to look for might learn faster. I can think of one girl who listed several different weights in her early ads and once said 'no BB'. I probably should've just taken that as carelessness and not wanting to list her real weight, but when you're learning it's easier to just avoid anyhing that seems off and save the TOFTT duty for when you know more. She showed up with reviews a few days later.

you are REALLY trying to say, you can always pm someone who has seen the provider you are wondering about, but if a guy isn't saying any "bad" things in a review, he's not going to post on an open board.

All women, not just providers, tend to be "less than completely honest" when it comes to age and weight. When viewing "glam" photos, figure she might not be quite that hot for your session, yes the pictures might also be "enhanced". If the gal appears to be in her mid thirties, she might be forty!

YOU WILL NOT FIND PERFECTION HERE OR OUT OF THE "HOBBY"

Thanks for not using an alias.

Feel free to pm me if you have a specific question about a specific provider I have seen. There is no guarantee you will be happy with my answer, but I'll give it a shot.

Right now, guys start these threads whenever they want to.  What is the problem with that system?

Right now we have a system of drive-by warnings and discussions. Guys start threads with cryptic headers, sometimes just have a bunch of links inside you have to open to understand what's what. If you happen to be there at the right time to read the post you are good. But as any kind of resource for a someone who comes along later and wants to do some due diligence research, it's pretty useless. It also generates a lot of repetitive posts, viz Summer.

If the warning threads were aggregated into a single thread each week, and better yet, if they all had headers that meant something, it would be a lot more useful. I'm not saying the proposal is really workable, haven't thought it through, but it's not something to shoot down out of hand.
