TER has lots of trolls on the boards who do not contribute anything positive. I read, so much negativity & it makes me think why are you here? Be kind. Spread love. The World is hard enough this should be a fun place. Those who use an alias why? No need to hide if your not afraid to stand by your words. I’m a provider who has been around a long time & it’s not inspiring, or motivating to post here with the large number of trolls. Even the photo board hit the like button on all these wonderful providers who spend time posting. I do! If look at all the hate here it’s sad. TER boards should be happy look at this community. Stop bashing each other it’s ridiculous. Those who feel need to harass providers by emailing them just don’t if you don’t have a life outside of TER your not truly living.
I know the same individuals will feel the need to troll. If that’s what your life has resorted to I feel sorry you can’t find something more productive to do. Get outside. Love life. Happy Friday TER friends. I’m going to smile as I run miles this morning & then it’s yoga. If you haven’t tried yoga it’s life changing. You should try it! Smile for me! Xo Make it an awesome weekend!
I've noticed the same. After reading a lot of TER posts, I feel like I need a shower. Thanks for speaking out.
That's funny!
As you’ve noticed, there’s some bona fide trolls and other asshats who frequent these boards. I use my alias where those folks tend to roam, my TER handle elsewhere. Also, using an alias when I post about my experiences with providers in general discussions avoids having those trolls and asshats dig into my reviews and try to figure out whom I’m talking about.
Anyway, we all use an “alias” here, right? Unless your given name is Queen Bia. 😉
But thanks for the good advice. If everyone just focused on being more kind to each other, here and elsewhere, “what a wonderful world it would be”. Yes, and getting off the kebosrd/keypad more and getting outside (I did my 5k early this morning, on a beautiful summer morning). And have more sex!
And there are a lot of legitimate uses for an alias that have nothing to do with being "gutless." In the days of unlimited aliases I had about 200 and mostly used them for fun. Now an alias is still useful if you want to make a comment and not have it tied to your reviews.
I had one called J.EdgarHooker just for LE issues. I wish I could remember more of them.
My name is Bia. AKA Bia Bia & sometimes Boss Bia!
And it use to be Patricia, and you use to post unblurred pictures. The point is, people's needs change. Sometimes it's a permanent thing and sometimes it's situational. Alias does not equal troll.

Life is Short…Beautiful Providers are Plentiful…I just want to enjoy my Cocktails., (Vodka In Hot Weather, Bourbon in Cold Weather) and indulge with the beautiful ladies!
The trolls persist because the moderators are crappy at their jobs.
Several people here seem to spring into action only to shit on someone else's parade. Sounds to me like some pretty deep unhappiness on their part. But it's also why I use the "IGNORE" button and skip over comments from those I can't put on ignore. I have no problem with pushing back on something I think is just plain stupid, but I try to remember that negative energy is just that--negative.
If I can't spread legs at least I'll try to spread a little joy.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with negative energy. There's absolutely nothing wrong with being a pessimist as opposed to an optimist.
If you can't handle negative energy, you can attempt to use good ol' ostrich defense (in reality, ostriches sticking head in the sand to hide is a myth but w/e) and block unwanted criticisms, etc. I do warn that I've seen people do this and they end up in an echo chamber, cirklejerk and an illusory world where they convince themselves that things are one way even though they are another way.
Is all you need by way of proof of the unhealthful effects of negative energy.
Goodbye Mr. qwerty.
I didn't make any negative or disparaging comment in my post. Neither did I troll. All I've did is question the whole "positive thinking" mantra. The world is made by friction, we are made by friction, and major progresses of mankind were almost always conceived due to some conflict.
I find the ostrich defense fascinating, though.
Do we have yet another experienced gent putting the little rocket felcher on ignore? Good for you!
Ah, speaking of negative energy, here's a guy who likes to call other folks names such as "felcher".
I guess that's all fine and dandy though. But God forbid someone actually questions whether negative energy is actually bad.
Like, where’s Mya? Why post that on my thread? It’s 100% negative & I refuse to waste my time with bad energy. When some of you post your sharing who we should never date, lack of respect for yourself & others. If your bored of the environment move to another board. The Alias is ridiculous. Grown. Respect. Bashing each other is unnecessary & totally unattractive.
Why post negative stuff? Why bash people, such as bashing people only because they choose to use an alias? Bashing is unnecessary & totally unattractive… as is hypocrisy.
As disagreement.
Disagreement and constructive discussion striving for a greater understanding can be very positive, I think.
I would submit that some trolls disingenuously claim to simply be providing a contrary opinion in the interest of broadening the discussion. When they are actually just arguing and denigration the thoughts and opinions of others just to feed their own narcissistic compulsion.
So, if by “negative stuff” you refer to a troll putting everyone else down in order to attract more attention for themselves, then I believe we are in agreement.
Oh I wasn't being negative when inquiring about Mya. The topic of trolls just made me realize I hadn't seen her post in a while.
While she was definitely a troll, she was a brilliant one. If you look through some of her threads, I never hated on her, I was fascinated by the woman. She's not even close to my type, but I still fully intend to reach out to her the next time I'm in Chicago to see if she is as intriguing in person or if it was just keyboard warrior behavior.
Definitely no negative energy intended with that post
