good info. thanks for passing along to those of us not familiar with the behind the scenes process.

Re: Backpage ad changes effective now - ladies cannot state anything less than an hour

If a girl is committed to offering half hour sessions she'll figure out a way to get the word out.  

She could say in her ad something like:
$xxx/hour (ask me about shorter sessions)

Please DON'T start asking every girl if she offers half hours.  Not all of us offer half hours and some of us don't think it's appropriate to discuss rates over the phone (or email).  It's our responsibility to advertise to you what our rates are.  Just because BP changed their rules doesn't make it okay to suggest hobbyists devolve their behavior.

I'm still seeing ads that have diffrent hh/hr rates. & long ass ads.

Just wondering...

i welcome aboard the girls from the street, however we should be suggesting to them and their clients to please respect and adopt the business practices of the online industry instead of bringing the street practices to the internet.  

you might not have noticed but apparently backpage figured out that the blatantly illegal ads are usually posted by girls offering the shorter sessions and is indicative of the street hooker mentality that greatly contributed to the public outcry and legal hassles suffered by craigslist.



 NOTICE:

- Pricing for legal adult services must be for a minimum of one hour

Example: 15 minute services are not allowed.

- You may now only use simple HTML (HTML images will be turned off soon)

- Ads can be a maximum length of 1500 characters.

- Do not post obscene images, e.g. uncovered genitalia, bare butts, sex acts, etc.

- Do not use code words such as 'greek', ‘gr33k’ 'bbbj', 'blow', ‘GFE’, ‘PSE’, 'trips to greece', etc.

- Do not suggest an exchange of sex acts for money.

- Do not post content which advertises an illegal service.

Postings not complying with the terms of use are subject to removal.

Backpage has now added new changes to what ladies can post in their ads.  And the new rules include (and I quote):
1.  "Pricing for legal adult services must be for a minimum of one hour

Example: 15 minute services are not allowed."

So if a lady offers any sessions less than an hour she can no longer put that in her ad.

2. "Ads can be a maximum length of 1500 characters."

So those longgggggggggggggggggg ads will no longer be allowed. Now that may be a good thing

So for you gentlemen who prefer a shorter session than an hour, please take note that ladies may still offer them but BP will no longer allow her to state that in the ad. So you will have to go to her web site or ask when you call.  But don't just cross her off your list because she doesn't offer that in her ads....because she may offer them but just can't say so now.

This women from change.org is after backpage.... They got a decent amount of petition signatures to try and get backpage to stop allowing escort ads, next thing I know the price to post jumps 2 dollars ... But I just posted an ad today offering half hour its up and live with no issues lol
