On TBD's NY board today there is a debate running over the private information of a client being posted as a result of an arrangement with a provider gone bad in some way.  

I phrase it in this way because of all the things being said about the circumstances, the only thing that is entirely clear is that a provider has publicly posted personal data as a FIRST resort to dealing with a problem with a client.

I believe that here, on this board, we should discuss this.  I know that moderators do not allow messages posted which violate the terms of the board.....BUT if a provider is THAT malicious with SO little judgement, I feel we, the clients should be informed even after the message is dumped.

The name of the provider in question is Tygrlily, a traveling girl.  Interesting to note that the moderator of the NY board regularly eliminates posts of this nature....but for some reason this one is still there (at least at the time of this post)

We truly only can exist as a community in this illicit environment if we practice good sense, discretion, and hold ourselves to a standard of integrity.

We can hang together with our common interests....or we can Hang seperately.

All in all this situation confirms for me my stance against pre-payment and deposits.  It also makes me more wary than ever, and more dependant on this board, the only source of information I currently feel I can depend on.

I remember TBD when it was in its infant state.  It was relatively legitimate, and unfortunately slowly bowed to the beast of commercialism.  Lets keep TER from falling to the same fate.

Rambling 2 cents complete.

Looky Looky
