In a few cases I've decided I wouldn't see someone based on their posts, but that is rare.

Men are visual, and if I like her looks, I will research her.  If the results fit my requirements, I will pursue further.

Most of the providers I have seen post very little or not at all on TER.  I will say this, if her posts are poorly written, i e, bad grammar, or lots of text speak, I tend to steer away from those.

make me wanna puke!

does the more a provider post turn you on or off seeing them? Same with the providers, does the frequency of the hobbyists posts turn you on or off?

Many of the gals that post here are ladies I would consider meeting with.  The more articulate a gal is in the way she conveys her thoughts is what I find appealing.  I equate to well written posts a gal that would be equally as interesting BCD.

But just as well, there are some ladies that post here that I simply can't read their posts anymore.  Those are a major turnoff for me.

If its just mindless spam, then it might turn me off. The content is definitely more important than the frequency. Some give you a nice glimpse into their personality in their posts and that can be a turn on. If all of their posts are about how men suck and they are all out to take advantage of them, then that would be a turn off.

Who the provider is....I have to admitt, after I read the post I click on thier profile and view the pics.   ONce I do that it ALL makes sense.  Some are cute and sexy and some are fat and nasty.  I saw one yesterday in Florida that was SO HOT.  I sent her a TER PM and told her I wanted to fly her out and see her body in person.  She was SMOKING HOT.  We don't have those types of bodies in LA.  TAN, TONE, hard body....with a boob job!   WOW....blew me away

The content of the post get my attention or Not. The frequency doesn't matter.

I scan the content of the thread then "flat" and scan the posts. If I am interested in it, I read it and maybe post. If it is lame or I just don't care about the subject (no matter who the posters are) I pass it up. Nothing more, nothing less!

I've seen more then a couple of providers that participate on the boards that I may not have seen otherwise.

Something about their post or comment caught my attention and I checked them out... A clever post or comment gets me to click that little button that says "See My TER Reviews" that takes me to plenty of information. (Free advertising in a subtle way.)

In fact... the next lady on my list commented on one of my comments with a sweet / sassy / fun comment that caught my attention. Checking out some of her reviews and she looks like a lot of fun... can't wait.

Of course... it helps that she's stunning and has nothing but 10's and 9's for her most recent page of reviews..... But I'm all about the fun involved and not just the fuck itself. Her fun / nice comments and participation on TER sealed the deal.. No Doubt.

There are a few gents that post and their responses I have to say makes me a little curious about them.Some I have spoken with which makes me even more curious and then there are a couple that after speaking to them I am not cool on seeing.Many of the gents that contact me know about TER but do not join in the discussion boards.I have also had many times a gent contact me based on a reply to his post or a reply to another post that he happened to read.I do not mind if a gent is active on the boards as long as his posts are not negative and trying to start something then I have no problem.
The only thing that turns me off is when a hobbyist continually posts the same ISO and people keep replying and month after month the same ISO it starts to sound like this person will never be satisfied.
When it is pointed out the OP gets rude or nasty to the ones that are trying to be helpful which I do not think is right.
But,if he is over the top active on the boards I start thinking "does he have anytime to actually see anyone?"

....the downside is, we lack the advantage of body language.  

I wouldn't not see a men just because he's a chatterbox on the boards...I also try not
to judge too harshly, even if what they say I don't agree with 100%...(on minor issues that is, not stuff
that would potentially jeopardize my safety or is completely off the wall offensive.)
I have also taken a shine to some based on their postings, and imagine they'd be fun to spend time with.

But don't worry, I won't stalk you.

Though I don't hobby now, when I hobbied I paid very close attention to the content of provider posts.

Providers often reveal their underlying attitudes and beliefs regarding hobbyists -- and thus what they would automatically think of ME. They also reveal their level of analysis and a great deal more. Often they reveal a great deal by what they do NOT say.

The content is important. As for frequency -- when I hobbied I didn't care if a lady posted once or a million times. It was the content that mattered.

In other words: quality over quantity.

And I don't care if you see me or not. I include the link to my website. Thank you very much. Nina.

Or are you not capable of spelling the word loser?  Insults work better if you don't sound stupid when making them.

My pussy is not your concern. I probably spelled loser not correct, but that doesn't mean you didn't get it. And this weren't insults, just a matter of fact. Fuck with MS. True Mocha..

TOO damn skinny and your attitude sucks ass.

Go eat a cheeseburger. You'll feel better. Trust me.

Voice inflection, facial expressions...all of it. As a information medium the Internet has been wonderful. As far as communicating in a meaningful way it has it's drawbacks. I could not agree more. FaceTime on the iPhone is beginning to address that issue.

Just a Old Fat Fuck with an opinion

Because I have noticed a number of posts from you on the GDB, thus bringing you under the umbrella of your own definition.

Generally speaking, if you are going to start calling people names, there are two things worth considering:

1. Try not to OBVIOUSLY fit the profile of those you are labeling
2. Especially when using degrading terms when referring to people, try to spell those terms correctly so you don't look like an idiot.

Obviously, the degradation you employ is very subjective and based upon your personal values -- and this reflects more what is in your heart than the actual condition of those you presume to label.

I'm still busy as heck meeting deadlines for some projects, but my biggest projects for this year are done!
