...to see how useless, ill conceived or dishonest all the other venues are. The other board (and the other board too) don't work for this neck of the woods. TER did work, for both men and women, even when it got a bit toxic. Reviews made men confident and brought reliable business to providers, even when people got rubbed up the wrong way. (Is there a wrong way to rub up?) Reviews are what it takes to fuel TER. Maybe "hobbyists" will be more careful about what they write - that would be good - but probably they won't. Both ends of the equation will still benefit. And a community will help keep us all safer. This place has my vote.
I wasn't a big poster on this board in the previous year's, but, I am very interested in hearing what is happening in Minnesota with providers and those of us in the hobby that want to meet you providers.
This board used to be a beehive of activity!
I would be very interested in hearing from providers about their thoughts on how the biz has changed since TER was gone for the last incredible number of months!!
Long live TER. It is the best communication vehicle I have seen since I became a hobbyist in 2003.
Thanks for listening, and, NOW I'm listening with 2 ears and an appetite for YOU!!
After being largely absent for about a year and a half, lots of things have changed and many have found other resources to use. How many will come back to TER and how many will prefer to use whatever else they have been using? The level of activity on TER had fallen to virtually nothing inside the U.S.; recovery will take quite some time.
TER was also so toxic prior to it going down. Many people, including me, stayed off the forum for that reason alone. That toxic tone hopefully will not be back.
I must agree that they were many times I sat and thought that it was getting a little too toxic for me some of the threads used to be so fun and engaging when I was on the road and I needed time to pass. I met so many wonderful people on here ladies and gentlemen so I’m glad that the site is back and we are ready for more action to come
And am even more glad to see a few of the quality ladies that have been on this site before return. Welcome back best hope your tour here was a success

Like most things if life, the re-boot of this board is going to be what we make of it. I just hope we learn from the mistakes of our past and make it great......
BTW, I am an old member who couldn't remember his old password and killed his old E-mail.
I travel extensively during the year, and for the past 18 months, without TER, I felt like I was in the twilight zone.
Everywhere I went, I was searching to find a reliable opportunity to meet the right provider. I can say that communications in the U.S. without TER was very difficult and not consistent at all.
Tampa, Indianapolis, Denver, Seattle, Phoenix, Detroit. All of them a wasteland on information and reliable provider information.
So, I am very pleased that TER is back, and Vorlon, I hope the activity level increases!!
I did have trouble finding places to post ads on. Seems as soon as I d find a good site , that would be shut down too. I'm very glad ter is up and running again
