about the other local board no longer being up and running...

will this thread be deleted?

I was just reading about the arrests connected to that local site. Good advice about not trusting it, if it comes back online.

am I doing something wrong? of so then I apologize

a woof woof site 6-7 years ago... compromised...

trusted site.  The connotation towards the underage girls utilizing said site is very sad.  However, I believe that the news article stated the feds had been investigating since 2011.

Why is TER more worthy of trust than that other site?
Just asking.

Hello fellow refugees!

So who's posting it's twitter feed?

No you're not doing anything wrong, at least in my opinion.

No source can be 100% reliable, but TER is way above any other that I have used.

In my opinion, that other site got too big.  Things changed when craigslist closed its adult section and then all the people that used to advertise there flooded that other site.  You could tell the difference and the owners and moderators there didn't care.  The quality of moderators over there varied, some of them had their own shenanigans.

many of us will be seeing regulars and guys whitelisted or using women we "know" from other sites too!  

was on there since almost the beginning, the paid ads, the changes, it got too big!!! plus we were told the servers were out of the USA and to find out it was a lie to get us to trust that it would never or could never be touched

WHO got arrested vs WHO ran the twitter account so I would not trust ANYTHING RIGHT NOW ASSOCIATED WITH IT  

hey to a familiar face/name!!

wonder if we should change our phone #'s and email accounts?

are in Prague.  The two people who ran the site lived in the Bay area...

I hope once marijuana use is legal everywhere, the next step will be this industry for those 18+ of age.

As long as you don't mention their name I doubt it will be deleted or locked.

decriminalized vs legalized

hint, as we all know who it is... not mention the name out of HIGH RESPECT for this site...

What a shock of a life time! I hope we all find a way to keep in touch!

Thanks for calling me Devin. Still waiting for you to answer my call!

Hi!
Not sure who were there....but can tell from your many reviews that you are established here.

Hi victory!
Another welcomed familar face.  
Hugs

Hello fellow refugees I look forward to seeing some more familiar handles....

Im also wondering if new contact info is required

I am trying to figure this site out...but yea, what a shock!  

Trying to figure this site out...what a shock!!!

Still trying to figure this site out, but want to say hello and we will get through this (I hope!!)

Coming back home. Like one big happy family!

if you need any help you can contact me I know this pretty well

Ive been here for years. Im more than willing to help you.
Glad to see you jamie.

Thanks! I definitely need help. Can we send private messages???

Yes it cant be trusted anymore.
I just joined it too.
But oh well. Lets stay safe everyone.

Mail. It should notify you into your email account that you signed up with and then you go to my ter and you will look for the mailbox

I was on the other site this morning as it was being shut down. Luckily I had enough time to login and print screen my favorites list!

Hey Girl Looks like we r all gonna be on here ! Good to see you Hugs Teddi

I rewrote a great new ad and its now gone. I wish i had saved it....wonder if its on wayback

I somewhat feel bad for the girls that didn't know about Ter and don't know about ter

Your comment piqued my interest, I found this article from 2012 that was interesting :

I posted this happening on both the Vegas and San Diego boards which are lite users of this now shut down site. This site started in San Francisco and attempted to branch out but really only had traction in San Francisco and the Central Valley. The CV was particularly a problem for me since I only visited about 6 times a year and my TER whitelist and P411 provider okays were pretty much met with a WTF response for reference purposes. I had to use and figure out this site when I was in the Cv. But it will be interesting to see what happens since the folks in Bako, Fresno, Stockton and Sacramento have historically relied solely on this site (unless they were very high end providers and experienced hobbyists). Too bad in the end because it was easy for me in the CV and now not sure what happens but hopefully providers migrate to TER.

Looks like some of you gals are gonna need to get jobs....like regular people

Most of the girls I saw had little to no posting history there. The girls who are going to be hurt are the low end ones who needed free advertising. I don't see girls who give cheap quickies so the ones I know won't be hurt by the shutdown.

Not on the USA.

Get jobs

Wow so you are here judging?  

Ya really...I wud lmfao if the Feds pulled the plug on everything

Let's all  do the  Ter cheer

-
yes one one think i did like is about it you have a forum for each topic  

This will certainly put a crimp into a lot of people's plans. Wow...I'm actually a little surprised

I understand your point.  I stopped posting on the forums a lot.  I used to.  I  think that my clients saw me mainly from my reviews

I hate to say it...but this certainly simplifies my upcoming tourOne less place I need to advertise and my assistant needs to keep checking on...

I won't print it since I don't know the rules around here but it shows He deposited around 100K every couple of months in various accounts. His girlfriend named in the indictment

My first post didn't show up for some reason. Let's see if this one does.

I feel your pain Caitlyn lol, I had just rewrote my ad too - darn!! What hurts more is losing 5 pages of my reviews... yikes! Hi all, I'm another 'refugee' !  

I'm just starting out on this site and it's much different here lol. Keep your heads up everyone! Ladies stay safe!

They ARE regular people.

So much for Charter Membership  LOL

Hi both of you!  We'll survive.  There's a great forum for women here.

Hi Jamie

To send and receive private messages you need to have a VIP account.

There is a fair amount on local tv news & online about what's happened so far.
Haven't been around for very long but having somewhat become familiar with both site. I think all different forum sections focusing on a particular topic is perhaps the biggest difference that the local site offered. I think part of why that was possible was because the website was solely very dedicated to the Northern CA area.  
I agree with a lot of what has already been said, no site is a hundred percent foolproof. TER & the other local site, certainly not the only two discussion sites out there, let alone the only advertising sites, but they are probably the two most used sites in regard to the Nor-Cal area. I'm sure most would agree that one will find something they'll like more about TER, however there is probably more things that they liked & will miss about the other site.

Thanks for the advise. I will certainly not advertise on there if it goes back up

the SF forum here will be a lot more lively now

And I send and receive messages

Dear Caitlyn - thanks for starting this thread! Kenny and everyone, hi - we'll have a chance to get better acquainted now. ~ Alexa

You too Jayladee. Good to hear from everyone! I hope more of us check in to let us know they are o.k....

(like some of you gals are gonna need to get jobs....like regular people...) Ya know, screw you asshole. A lot of us have TRIED getting regular jobs and cannot land one, or cannot afford to pay rent on MacDonald's pay. You don't know people's situations so shut the fuck up.

Dear Fellow Former Members of The Other Site;

Thanks for the info.  

Try having 18 pages lost lol

I mean come on..... Swiss account anyone?

Not in the way that we all wanted it to be more active but c'est la vie we take what we can get.....

I almost called you  today lol
Awesome to see you

They seized the domain name, not the servers.  I have heard various reports of Prauge, Canada, and some other countries as the hosting base.

And those of us good guys loosing all our review posting history.  At least 15 years worth.

hi kenny  
i sent you an email
just FYI
hope all is well over here folks,
its been a bad day and lets see how this go's from now on....

Don't know if you replied Ck, but I guess I don't have a private message here without being a VIP. Oh well. Maybe in the future

This link will help explain how to link your reviews with your profile ID and become VIP member.

All the old school gals are returning lol

I have a wonderful one...  

What are you talking about randy all the charters moved over here

as if that ever meant anything over there LOL!

I have done nothing but warn all the people that are in the know over there and words of wisdom  have been passed on...Oh well. lesson learned hard. Everything you have said kenny is correct. It just seemed so strange to me that the owner of that site just refused to put up a gate keeping method. A simple password protection service. I wasnt even comparing this site to theirs! I was simply telling them to put some kind of barrier that would bounce off google-searches. The frekking owner does the opposite and welcomes the googling and the cache-collection on their site. Ridiculous! Well, it took some time but it finally happened and I warned and told them so! And yes, you are correct that there were a few of those mods that have hidden agendas. All of that info finally surfaced and yet the owner of the site continued to keep them. You are correct, its all about greed. The owner didnt care as long as there was positive cash flow coming his way. He didnt care where it came from.

You do know that TER was also taken down years ago as well? People were jumping ship like crazy, doing whatever they could do to get banned, which is where the banned site originated from.  Nearly every major board has been taken down at one point or another.

I miss you!!!!!

Is a welcome site (wink)

Th shutting down of that other board affects not just California providers and hobbyists...but hobbyists and providers all over the United States. After this, all providers and hobbyists will be VERY careful in how they hobby.

You can rebuild....  
If you build it they will come lol
I know a really good provider you can start rebuilding with...  

Pm  
Yes they changed it  

The OWNER was arrested  

It catered mainly to the SFbay area. I'd care to guess that over 50percent of its business and main income is the southbay/silicon valley clientle alone. For example; that owner of tha site charged more for advertising as a premium and ectra fee to advertise to those clientle in the southbay. Its funny also that his vendors  was selling the cheapest and most consistent services that it had to offer. And not to mention that there was practically no ROB factor there as well. It was a win-won for a long time, but as I said already in the other response-his greed got the best of him. That and the fact that he refused to put up some kind of firewall to keep things under the lid. Not so extreme like TER, but something as minimal as a password protection entry was none-existent. That website was too freeking transparent and it started to bother me when the chartermember phase was over. His intent was transparency in order to grow and to grow very fast.

Well said Rosetown. I have been a member of both sites for years..... Sad day. TER is a great resource if used right. Stay safe everyone
-Camarooooooo
(Camaroman on other site camaroman77 on TER).

ust wanted to note that I am here too. Glad to see some familiar names.

I've been a member of that site for a long time, back when I was in Sac, but moved away
now i am moving back to the bay area and this happens...
guess we'll just communicate here then...

Sometimes it seemed that the other site was the best tool LE had to find easy picking illegal activity.  I was surprised that it went down like it did, but apparently there was a LOT of money involved, at least that's what is alleged in the indictment documents that one of the news stories linked to.

E dot com was operated by the aunt irs for almost six months, Someone that looked at dynamic name files found it and said something

I have always loved your  photos

Soon, sweetie, soon.

First, I don't think the site will ever come back to life. Second, you don't seem to understand their goal. They wanted to bring down and disrupt the biggest advertising network in California. If they wanted to bust individual providers, they were better off with the site up and running. If the site did ever come back up, there wouldn't be any harm advertising there. Did you think they cops couldn't see your ads and all of the information you posted for the 13 years before they shut down the site?  

I am sorry if that site goes back up, it most likely would be restarted by people we do not want to run the site. (FBI, LE, etc) so now why on EARTH would I want to go back to a site now RUN by the very people I do not want to see???  

I know you, please email me at  
[email protected]

If they want you they will get you, plain &.simple, no matter what you do or wherever you advertise....don't forget to put up that ridiculous disclaimer on your ads!

According to an extremely reliable source, with a very long history in the community here, the servers were NOT overseas, and have been seized along with any other incriminating material. Please be absolutely diligent in screening new clients, at least until this dies down.

With the server logs, the FBI will know more about your clients than you do.  

You are a provider with reviews linked to your username, that gives you limited VIP.  The men here do not have that option.  Unless the men are providers???

The former owner was arrested.  He had sold the site to the current owners, but they kept him on in some capacity.  Then the former owner decided to keep doing what he was doing to some people and got in trouble.  The current owners fired him shortly after that incident.

who you calling refugee?    I've been here all along.

thread....but I think facts should be stated so paranoia is not running rampant.. lol  

ok I gotcha!

Bye Bye last 12 years...........

Thank you for posting this, Caitlyn!  I woke up this morning to do my usual refresh and... WOW.  What a shock.  

You're not new, you have reviews here!

are the hot tickets lol  

I'm glad we were able to connect yesterday. It helped me feel better, for sure.

Jazz,  

Thank you, Caitlyn. I will be contacting soon. Thank you for being so helpful and welcoming to all of us refugees.

The other site that's now gone was hosted in the Czech Republic. The server hosting the site was on shared hardware numerous legitimate sites of other customers were also hosted on.  

call/email im here for you all

Ugg there's no Sacramento board here on TER.    Can us Sac towners use the SF board or are we screwed?

There have been posts and iso's for sacto before this :}

that sounds fun.... Kicking myself for stopping Full service and doing fbsm+ lol

LOL @ Rose ... didn't take long for the over opinionated jerks to show up did it?  

I heard on the news that they seized acs which was also owned by the other site. This was the billing site used to charge cc info for paid ads. I never remember seeing ccbill. Perhaps I am wrong.

Ccbill.com is on my statement. This site uses the same service.

Yup, correct kenny, and I started to write more of that ** crap and realized its just more damning shit that the feds dont' need to know since they already know! LOL! But yeah again, all this stuff leads back to red and how really careless he was. To think that he had all that time before they actually wised up to him (in 2011)? And he simply didnt care and was so caught up in his greed since the business just kept picking up for him!
Just imagine folks, red's business thrived during the recession! One of the few businesses that kept the demand at an even pace and never really took a dive. Because theres so many mongers in the bay area that are just so rich to keep this thing sustained. I think us, LA and NYC is the major trifecta of whoring. Amazing!
I was looking at old CNBC documentary and they are reminscing how PORN is a multi billion dollar business&industry in America, alone!
