...lurkers who never post but only read.

I can understand the need for privacy and LE though... And I'm posting under an alias for privacy concerns. hope people can respect the use of alias here!

But personally,  I figured wtf will donut man ever find from my posts, as long as I don't kill anyone or anything severe like that? Some reviews that are, for the record, all considered to be a work of fiction, slap stick discussions that half the people don't even bother reading, and goof off with friends, a fake name in profile, hobby email... figure it will be pretty hard to prove that I actually saw a provider.

Cuz for the record, I have never seen a provider.  As far as I know they looked exactly like civvy girls who all found me passionately and irresistibly attractive to death and we had a mutually consenting time. I have no reason to suspect that her gfe was fake.

Maybe they'll find some ip addresses too but pretty damn certain that its going to take more than a misdemeanor case to get additional info from the ISP in order to pinpoint my real name and address. (if even that is possible cuz in my case it aint even linked to my real name either lol)

Most importantly though, I don't plan on breaking the law at the felony level that would draw unwanted and unneccessary attention to myself. If I do, At that point i'll have much bigger problems to deal with than my works of fiction and lame posts on disscusion boards...

for about 2 1/2 years befor I even clicked on the discussion board tab. Didn't see the need. Nor benefit.

not sure I do now

Used to use one on a local board, but it has even gone dead.  I'm like the large majority of users here, I use the site to find out info about the ladies I have an interest in seeing.  Occasionally, I will PM someone for extra info, or to answer a question,, but most of the time I'm just reading posts and reviews.  I do post comments on a few of the forums also, but leave chatting to friends I talk on IM sites.

Okay so im sure most of you have worked out from my posts that im new on here but i have noticed at the top of the page when i log in it says 11,000 and something or 12,000 and something users online BUT i've logged into the chat room 5 or 6 times over the last week and there's never been anymore than two people in and even when they're were two people in they didn't speak to me. Well how's that for hello newbie..... So please tell me is the chat room NOT the done thing???? and where are you all when your online on this site??? is there another section im not fortunate enough to be part of yet!!! LOL

Thanks Casey xx

The sky is falling, everybody's out to arrest me for talking to a bunch of drunks about some fictitious fantasy stuff on some fuck board.  

I'm a chronic lurking leach who only read what others contributed and never contribute anything useful of my own, please don't oust me!!!!

Just kidding with you on that one.  My guess is most are just browsing looking for the next date or reading away on the various boards.  I don't think that TER has an actual hiding spot for the others just lurking...at least I haven't found it yet.

Glad to see that you are perusing all of this and getting yourself educated on the way the game is played here in the States.  Good luck to you once you are here and ready to play.

the users; most are probably looking for dates without bothering to post anything except an occasional review. Some are merely lurking, again, not posting. The US is a pretty big place and 12,000 +/- isn't a lot of people looking for companionship.

Re the chat room though: it's always hit or miss, mostly miss. For awhile, it didn't even work, so the few that ventured there couldn't meet. The rest just kind of wandered away. PLUS, you have to figure that the majority of those that post here are on the Chicago / New York time zones. At 6:55pmCST or 7:55Pm EST, that leaves London in the wee hours of the next morning or the West Coast falling behind by two-three hours. Chat is a tough way to meet anyone.

and ever since then, you have taken to water akin to a fish

I was a lurker for at least a year before I decided to participate on some of the boards.  I use to just sit quietly in the peanut gallery gathering info on new providers and doing my homework.  I'm sure that a majority of those users that we see online are probably doing the same thing ...LOL.

Many, many of us feel we must stay UTR!!
Though we may chime in occasionally.
(Like now!)

I know who this is....

I got back on because I respect and care for this person. She got the short end of the stick, and I wasn't having it.

Mission accomplished, and since I changed banks cuz of other matters, TER can't deplete my funds at will like before.

She got the short end of the stick.

Well, we all knew it was short ...  lol

TER was hacked or affiliated folks divulged those info. Otherwise, donut men don't have a chance in finding those  info, unless if they themselves become mods or something. Another big if.

Hosted off shore, with international borders... Highly doubt TER will give up these info on their own, unless maybe if it was a court order trying to help catch a serial killer or something.

and 29% are lurkers. Still a huge majority compared to 15% who only participate on regional, 1% on national board, and 10% who participate on both... looks like we're the minority.  Not sure about chat room though I've never been there and have no interest in using it either, until more providers are on it. lol

This was from the main front page on TER

"Do you participate on the discussion boards and, if so, how?"


43% No.
10% Yes, I post on both the regional and national boards.
15% Yes, I post on just my regional board.
1% Yes, I post only on the national boards.
29% Yes, but I usually just read and do not post.
