General Ad Posting and General Board Rules apply unless otherwise stated above.

These are some very interesting guidelines.  Could we review them privately and get back to you with any questions or comments?

Thanks!

Which may not be a bad thing. Real photos w/o being photo shopped. You'll be able to see what you're really getting.

Who can remember that many fucking rules.  The poor providers are going to have to hire photographers full time now.(nothing against this worthy profession-must be part of Obama's stimulus plan)

It is going to be difficult for many to abide by some of these restrictive rules:

-Photos should be related to the theme
- Photos should not have been used for a theme day in the past - Keep them new!

I wish they had one more rule- no "self shots" reflections in a mirror.

The boards are dull enough, might as well be duller.

The rule should be one per week. Theme day posts are nothing more than ads and don't contribute to the discussion of any subject matter on the boards but serve as a distraction.

Now you will have providers taking turns starting theme day threads everyday to promote themselves and the main discussion board will become another ad board for the providers. It defeats the purpose of splitting the boards into a discussion and ad board in the first place.

The board is entertaining.  It should stay entertaining.  Too many rules could result in outright boredom.  Just one man's opinion....

...but have had trouble gaining traction on this board in recent years. I love them and rules similar to these have proven sucessful on those other boards. I can never get tired of lovely ladies shamelessly displaying their wares. Hopefully this will catch on here; at least, it can't hurt.

I would much rather see the candid "self photos".  Much more representative of what is actually gonna be behind the door.  Some of the ladies professional photos make them look like avatars in my opinion, while some are nicely done.  And I would agree with a once a week photo theme day, not every day.

you know, something like this. The more theme days, the better.

Agreed.  Seems like a solution in search of a problem?  I haven't noticed any issue with this.  Perhaps this is nationwide policy based on a few problems on a few boards?  If so I hope TER's changes recently are flexible enough to allow a little regional difference.  Regulate the jerks coming here to harass the gals, not the gals who seem to me be just having some fun!

I wanna lick her allllllll over
