I've noticed that a least a couple of providers who advertise on TER and another Board ( whose name must not be mentioned much like Lord Voltomort) give a much better rate on the other board than on this board.  Why is that? Are we TER people not worthy of the same rates?  Do we smell worse than the people on the other board?  Are we uglier than the people on the other board?  Do we have a big L on our foreheads?

This has been going on ever since that other board started up many moons ago. Perhaps a provider who is active on both boards can shed some light on this?

I have asked these ladies why & they have no response.

I've discussed this with providers. They see a different type of hobbyist on TER than the" other" board. TER guys tend to be more affluent, may not know the providers/community as well ( out of towners) and do not become regulars as frequently. TER members understandably are secure with reviews and are willing/able to reward the ladies with a premium fee. All in all, fair market at it's best.

...is that some gals think the guys on TER have deeper pockets than the guys on that other board and are more likely to pay the higher fare. I could be wrong, of course.

Thanks for the insider's perspective, Arden -- VERY interesting!
