And was expecting them to bring up more interesting shit than opposed to this fake ass virus that so many pussies are scared of.  

from being gone for two years after tucking their tails and running.

I realize it is balance to attract ladies to the boards while maintaining candid reviews but the new, more relaxed review policy here is completely reshaping the site (in a bad way).  Many of the reviews of some legendary ladies are now gone by request.  When a young twitter hottie gets reviewed, many reviews have quickly disappeared, again by request.  In fact we just saw a situation on the Chicago boards where a client posted three 4/4 reviews primarily because the ladies were heavier than their photos.  Between endless ranting, a technicality (he said CBJ but it was BBBJ) and a quick follow-up shill review for one of the ladies (the follow-up review was posted by someone who reviewed her 8 times previously), TER took down all 4/4 reviews.  So TER is pretty much turning into reviews of MP and agency girls or reviews that are only acceptable to the provider.  Not quite the same.

MP67,  
  I truly get what you are saying, But people have the right to verbalize their concerns (Despite how petty others may find it).

"Back in the day" on any given day or night we would average about 70,000 members online, look at the numbers today, barely 5% of what it used to be. I see a LOT more ebbing than flowing.

But I  have never "needed" it. I found my ATF on the ol' backpage before I even heard of TER, and Twitter proved to be a wonderful platform over the last couple years. The provider's personalities really come out there. That being said, TER can still provide some nuance and balance to the other avenues we use, and that's why I just wrote a couple new reviews.

At twenty dollars a week aren't Chanel's rates around five months worth of savings for you?  

Be nice - probably declared more income then more then a few providers her and still saves the planet with his bicycle.

As GaG has pointed out, there is a 90-95% drop in TER users and that is astonishing. Of course these numbers pre-date COVID so we cant make the contagion a scape goat.

It's unfair and ladies don't get a fair shake under the present scoring system as you said. You'd thinking with TER being virtually absent from the US for almost two years, they would rethink some of the things that drove ladies away in the first place.

Is anyone here familiar with my proposal to adopt X-out-of-Y scoring?  I don't care about some of the things needed to merit a 10.  But I have had many FANTASTIC 7-out-of-7s! (and 8-out-of-8s!)
.
Also, have we established whether the old "70,000 users online" was ever authenticated or might it have been constantly inflated, maybe by 10x?  Does anybody have access to OLD web data, like from Alexa or other activity monitoring service?  Heck, maybe even CURRENT Alexa info? (Alexa blocks TOR so I can't check.)

Closing down two years ago kIlled them. There is no coming back. Covid doesn’t help but they were dead in the water anyway.  

I have gotten a few raises over the years, and I am currently paying $500 a month for rent (split between 3 other roommates). I now put aside $25 per week, plus any cash I have left over at the end of the week also goes into my escort fund. In addition,  I usually have a little money left over at the end of the month, so 1/3 goes to extra spending money, another third to savings, and she remaining third to my escort fund. So it's not uncommon for me to have a little over $200 in my escort fund at the end of the month. I am furloughed from the casino at the moment, but I had 250 hours of PTO to tide me over. And yes, some of the local ladies benefitted from my stimulus check.

Check me out on Twitter!

Hey Steph!  It’s nice to hear from you.

I am sure most people here have seen me when I was NOT nice and will agree that this is me on "good behavior"  

A person whom I have known for 30 years died of it.  So yes, it is real.

Glad you had fun and glad you used your stimulus money to get stimulated. lol

In a nutshell, it's gone from once every 3 months to about once every month and a half.  So I'm getting laid twice as much as I used to.

My backup list went from 4-5 to 10-15 providers when I returned to TER! As an added bonus I get a few laughs reading some of these crazy discussion board threads! Over the year that is certainly worth the value of one of the dud kgirl sessions I was subject to while TER was banished. In the scheme of things this provides decent value in my mind. Of course, bring in LA the quantity of providers reviewed is more and therefore provides more value.

Why don't you come up and see me sometime, as the saying goes.

Wouldn't it be poetic justice if you ended up just like THIS guy?  Karma truly is a bitch!

and don't know. This is a crazy world.  

Pray into one hand, and shit into the other.

I admit I don't hobby as much as you do cuz my mom is elderly and my sister, whom is a year younger than me, is handicapped with a hellion of a daughter. But with my financials, I could easily take care of mine AND get my nut more often than not.  

Kitty76, what I want, is the old days. I know I'm not the only one not digging what's going on, but I feel it's falling on deaf ears.  

As a matter of fact, vantheman666, I want to meet you. I wanna look in your eyes when.....

I'm a fucking man, you fucking pussy. I went in for a ultrasound this morning. They took my temperature which was 97.6 and handed them my insurance card. The clowness told me, after my insurance, it was going to cost me $420. I laughed and walked out.  

He did and I think I know what he was trying to say. I think he wanted one of the other omni* words.

I have family, but no one who needs "taking care of." I don't eat ramen. As a professional cook, I eat a wider variety of foods than the average person. My roommates stay out of my way and know better than to fuck with me. I'm fucked up? I'm sure you're soooooo much better than me. You want to meet me someday? I have VIP right now, so I'll give you my contact information.

Nobody is getting "punched in the throat here" and Mikey, I was just messing with Van, it's what I do, but you already knew that. lol

Not sure what set you off Mikey cause I don't see anything he said as offensive. Cool off have a drink on me. Love ya brother.

LMAO! Glad I have brothers that dig and understand me or else everyone else would be in for a world of hurt!...

Fucking come on. I can say something half-ass coherent here and there! At least a fucking attempt there-of!...  

Mikey (can I call you that as we're not exactly known to one another), absolutely. You are allowed to say anything the fuck you want here. And you can say anything back to anyone that says anything about what you said. (Well, at least if everything is generally within what is considered acceptable under TER policy but that line is so far away, except maybe the bit about giving way my left nut so you can get laid. Even if TER allows that I AM drawing that line regarding my balls. I only mention it as the limiting point for those that take "anything" to mean even the other side of such lines.)

What would Jesus have done if, right before the crucifixion, somebody said, "There's no coming back."   Have a little faith, it takes time to rebuild.

What about the regular flu?  Or a common cold?  Are those real?

they don't enter your body through your ass, so they are indeed "Fake ass virus."  Clear on that?

That cannot possibly be safe. Even if a battery is used and not electricity. There is the chance the bulb could break.  
Now I got this pictures in my mind, Ughh.

on home remedies.  Its cheaper than going to the doctor, regardless of the potential consequences.  Lol

I smell a scam, this fucker had already started a go fund me page well before the virus had become a pandemic and long before either him or his wife supposedly got sick.  

I remember that thread. I recall most people though it would be an improvement at least on some metrics.
