Haven’t been having much luck lately. Been trying to navigate my way through the local sights that are either saturated by Asian advertisements that the ladies don’t even exist. Yes you’ll get an Asian gal but not the one in  The picture and service is kind of hit or miss. Another site that majority are crooks trying to get you to make a deposit or purchase a gift card then have you send the number so they can “verify” the funds then steel the cash. Others have bottom barely providers that are cheep and usually pretty fuggly. Yes you can shell out a boat load to get high quality traveling ladies and even some decent locals but my fun money isn't what it used to be so I’m trying to stretch my dollars a little more getting creative. Had many good and many great amongst two local groups but kind of tired on relying on one of theirs system and the others end up being as much as the high end gals for fs. I don’t know. Maybe 20 years of being in the hobby just Indy getting me satisfaction like it once did. PM me if you have any creative ideas or could share with everybody.

All these things have really tossed the P4P "ecosystem" into an upheaval for the past few years after a period of quite some time (at least as far as my experience goes) where things were relatively stable.  I think it is too soon to know how everything will sort out.  But personally I agree that things are much more complicated than they used to be and I don't enjoy it as much as I used to.

Thanks as you’ve been a well established member of the seen. Your perspective is appreciated. Us long haulers that were around before TER went off line in the U.S. and have seen things evolve pre-Internet (i.e. back page of the city pages or even the yellow pages in the phone book. Yeh I know I’m dating myself but my point is that things are much harder and less enjoyable as they used to be IMHO. Don’t get me wrong, my reviews are spot on and I’ve had a ton of fun, just stating things are at a quagmire for the time being and hoping this industry reinvents itself as it has so many times over the years.  

If my memory serves me right, just on Eros itself there were around 100 ads just here in MN...100. In most of these ads everybody knew who all these ladies were

You really nailed it.
I have no good answer unfortunately.  
That site, 2 of them, and they all want a fuggin gift card and send them the number for a deposit. Really?  
Now I see a distinct lack of activity from the gals on ME. That must mean sumthins up but not sure what.  
Maybe you guys are right and it'll right itself but I can't say I'm optimistic.

Eros has less than half the ads it used to have. If my memory serves me right there were always a few porn stars advertising that would stop over in Mn for a day or two..

I hobbied in MN from late 1980's until 2010 and then was in Europe and then back here about 18 months ago. The current state of things here is pretty bleak but my guess is that it will turn around. There's a lot of money to be made for providing good service and I doubt that opportunity will go to waste. I think (and hope) we'll begin to see good improvement in the coming months.

Go to Florida, check out the fun places, 200 all in, great deal for beautiful asians, and I mean beautiful!

I agree about Florida; first, it's fairly cheap to fly. I've had some of my best times around different cities.

Hi! Being a provider here in Minneapolis I would love to help or try to help bridge this gap.  Ask me your questions and maybe I can answer them so we can get out of this quagmire that we're currently in.  
It won't hurt.

You're right; there was a number that did come thru...memories. Some companions back then did go to in front of the camera.

I don't know what sesta/fosta is. My deal is finding and knowing who is real or not and where to find them. I know it goes both ways, but have had more girls flake on me in the last month than maybe ever. Seriously. 2 in the last 2 days. 1 who was what I thought the sweetest girl I ever met, pushed back an appointment made the day before. She did it twice, then stopped responding. Backpage used to be somewhat of a crapshoot, but I would love to have it back.

The local strip clubs usually had a feature dancer come through for a weekend gig back in the day. I’m presuming those ladies were making more bank with OTC work than they got in dollar bills at the club. I regret I had not started into learning of these things at the time. Sigh…

I'm really really real.  I promise.  

The main job of all politicians is to mess with all adult entertainment. Both sides of political parties voted for this, and even ones that are clients voted for this.

This was decades ago at a local place I frequent a lot. It was in plain view that by the stage, there was after-market business going on. There was one of those drive-up motels right next door the business was concluded. The city closed down the club, and soon after, the motel lost business
