What about a guy with a limited provider history?  If you have received a meeting request from someone that is not DC-ID'ed or P411'ed, besides the normal verification of residence and employment, would you look to see if they have a board posting history?  

Well, most of us smart ladies, use a few different ways to verify a gent, but beyond all.. Our intuition. I will not post methods, but they are far more advanced than some may think. Not all girls, and honestly even the high dollar ones often don't check. Just depends on the girl.  

you are a class act and I hope to some day meet you!!

Some of these guys don't realize how transparent they are. There are so many guys who are active on these boards who come off as true women haters. I do not wish to meet them. And honestly, I think they should find a new hobby. However, I have noticed firsthand that some guys post on the boards to impress other guys, not realizing that being one of the "cool guys" is a surefire way to get on MANY ladies' DNES (DO NOT EVER SEE) list. These guys are digging their own graves, slowly but surely. But hey, the guys think they're cool!! lol!! awesome!! Oddly enough, some guys forget these boards are intended to help a guy ultimately meet a lady. Instead, they come here to earn "spoty awards" and "likes", or whatever. I guess they'd rather chill with the guys than cuddle with a sexy lady. Gay if you ask me. Nothing against gays. But you know what I mean....

I have tried to post informational subject matter and complimentary statements. Akiya's post is telling, If this is the case, I am wasting my time. I am certainly not a woman hater.  Very interesting post. I agree that the guy cuddlers with their pals is GAY.

lol You clearly took my post personally (please don't).  I definitely didn't have you or ANY of the PHX guys in mind when I posted this. I was talking about the women haters on the GB. It is not hard at all to figure out who I am referring to. Dave said something at the end of his post regarding "intelligent women". That is what I replied to specifically.  Informational and complimentary posts are harmless, and welcomed. Bitter and resentful posts, those are the posts I'm talking about. Good guys, please post away. Assholes, go play in NYC traffic at around 5pm please.  

I had the privilege of seeing Akiya several years ago when we were both fairly new to the hobby and after reading her posts I realize how much I appreciate her attitude. I can attest to the fact that she is true to her words. She really is selective with who she sees and she does enjoy her time with you more because of that. The experience is much deeper because of her approach. Like her, I would rather be with a discerning partner that cares about attitude and wants to have a good time versus someone who is just all about the money.

Thank you for taking the time to clarify. I do post certain subject matter with the intent that it may be of some value to providers and fellow hobbyist. I elect to do this unassumingly because of my profession, and my natural determination to be an aggressive advocate and defend people. I realize how complex it is for providers to operate at their own peril. Notwithstanding, our hobby should be legalized however, I seriously doubt it will happen in the near future.  

Good Post, Gone In 60

for understanding what I meant....definitely didn't want to offend any good guys here in Phx. You hit it on the nail with "disingenuous people". That is the perfect term for those I wish to avoid. You're not missing out on much right now by not reading the GD board. Right now they are discussing diarrhea and gas. Unfortunately, I have to read through all the crap (pun intended) to find the bits of information I am looking for. Oh, how I wish to have an assistant to do all this for me! But having an assistant does not jive with my need to connect personally with every single potential client. So back to reading I go.....

LMAO, We will work it out!! Yes see you soon!

Concur with your sentiments.  Discerning quality reigns over quantity any day!

Boards can so easily go negative. Innocuous statements often sound like a put down and it's easy to get defensive so I really appreciate when posts are thoughtful and writers go out of their way to make sure nobody gets their feelings bruised. Akiya, you are not only wise beyond your years, you are a person who deserves to be respected and a woman who deserves to be savored. I hope our paths cross again someday.
I also want to make sure that TVlaw knows how much his posts are appreciated. I am constantly enlightened by his take on many subjects and have become a better and safer hobbiest because of his advice.

The general board has more douches than a Summer's Eve factory.   Akiya, you are a glutton for punishment for wading through that board.  But, like others have said, you are a wise, safe, and well informed provider.   So keep doing what you're doing.  You and TVLaw both

I looked in there a couple of times and thought to myself "and here i thought youtube comments were the bottom of the barrel". Much to learn even after all these years...

At the top of this page click on the search tab, then fill in either author (TER handle) or subject  
Then in range the default is 30 days, but you can increase to whatever period of time you wan

Also it will only show results for that board you are searching. GB board, PHX board etc....

Totally agree my sexy friend. Couldn't have said it better....I prefer to not see the guys in the "cliques" on the board

Thank you Van Ness, back at you!

I really enjoy this hobby! I appreciate the great people I have met or, had contact with via messaging or email. Gone in 60 is a cool guy that tells it like it is with no BS embellishments. I appreciate Mya as well notwithstanding she don't like LAWYERS. Lol  It is going to be a good year! I am hopeful that LE will dedicate their efforts to apprehend CHILD ABUSERS, PEDOFILES and WIFE BEATERS. Have a good time!!
