I've got to go with swingsbothways. A very hot bisexual gal who was also a monger with her boyfriend. They used to see escorts together. I was lucky enough to meet her "up close and personal" and know of at least one other monger (a former mod) who did, too.
Who were your favorite posters back in the good 'ol days?

CurlyW - Nats Fan was my most favorite poster -  maybe a little biased as I vaguely remember it being my old handle..  I loved that cocksucker until he was outed by the powers that be..  

Nice to see you. I agree with all your picks. And just so you'll know, I am in regular touch with GaG and MP67. Both are doing well but don't expect to see either of them on the boards again.
Did you know that London Rayne has a voice that sounds like Minnie Mouse on helium?

Thank you... Thank you !! Nice to see you as well.  

You sneaky devil!  Nice to “see” you!  Fond memories - hope you are well.

Fond memories indeed in Las Vegas..  

By Minnie Me, I meant Minnie Mouse.. LOL..  I did have a few beers last night so was a bit buzzed when wrote that crap.

Why are people addressing SinCitySinner as Curly? What am I missing?

SinCitySinner was an urbane, polite, refined gentleman with manners who was always courteous and considerate..

That leaves me more confused than before.

Curly is SinCity! He changed his handle. People that have been around a while know this. For those who didn’t know, he mentions it in his first line in his first post in this thread!

He referred to himself in the third person so, no, he didn't say it was him.

I did it to be funny - else it would have been a too simplistic a post.

I don't know whether he posted on the GD board or was an LA board-only regular, but his posts were a heady admixture of Mickey Spillane, Raymond Chandler, and Hemingway. Every post was an instant classic.

who spoke in very hyperbolic and highly melodramatic language... Who would say things like "bespoke" and 4 REAL4 REAL. The guy would incessantly brag about seeing one girl 79 times...  

Know who you are talking about but also drawing a blank on the handle. In addition to the above he was a fan of cap lock posts.

this is a somewhat transient community.  I had several exchanges with him but can't remember his name either.  

I actually think he was banned.
And speaking of the banned, does anyone remember the infamous guy whose handle started with "fuzzy?"

Uhhh I wanna say gdaddy or maybe gdaddy[somenumber]
Something like that maybe.  
That sound right?

You got it..  gdaddy indeed..

inicky reminded me of NDtBF in a post on another board.
I always liked NDtBF's self-deprecating humor.  And he'd be right up there at the top of the list of favorite handles too.

I’m thinking her name might have been Fancy, or something like that.  Her posts were scattershot, rarely more than five words and pretty much incomprehensible, but they were fun to read.  She was the butt of a lot of jokes but she seemed like a good sport and kept plugging away and seemed immune to all the fun made at her expense.  I felt sorry for her but at the same time I couldn’t NOT read her posts.  This was about ten years ago - a great time to be on TER.  

But now we have Kitty from AC who is also kind of goofy.

But that reminds me of Pavliena:

She changed her name / handle a couple of times and I don't remember all of them.

Nothing fake about her.   She told it like it was.  I loved pushing her to post more.  She always made me smile.  She completely suppressed my grammarian instincts, mainly because it would have been too much work.  Lol

We used to call her "Babushka," Russian for Grandma. She lived in Section 8 housing. I used to call her Natasha, as in "Boris and Natasha" from "The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show," but she complained that was her real name. There were lots of references to "mooz and skvirrel." She wrote a kind of fractured English that sounded like the way she must have spoken. It was fun making her nuts.

OMFG !!! I remember that nut job..  LOL

The loveliest girl in Vienna
Was Alma, the smartest as well
Once you picked her up on your antenna
You'd never be free of her spell
.
Her lovers were many and varied
From the day she began her beguine
There were three famous ones whom she married
And God knows how many between
.
Alma, tell us
All modern women are jealous
Which of your magical wands
Got you Gustav and Walter and Franz?

Nice to see you again. I have a lot of fond memories of some of the trainwrecks "the group" participated in! RT taking Court out to eat at a fancy restaurant and one of the two of them took a pic of "escargot aka SNAILS. RT got so much shit for ordering it.  

Hey Steph - Good to see ya as well.  Fond memories indeed..

I think Courtney posted a pic saying something about not liking snails. He thought ordering for his date was romantic-LMAO!

I loved putting up the Moses gif below of Tidwell and the Ten Commandments.
I have never seen anyone disintegrate on the boards like he did.

I remember he used to have a fit whenever someone said he was probably sobbing softly into his pillow at night!  

Eom

Hope you doing well over there..

(I can't figure out to which post this a reply. Anyway, ...)

Jack Dunphy was the founder of Jack Dunphy University. I was supposed to get a faculty position there but he never sent the contracts. I wanted to see if it said, "Faculty fraternizing with the students is strongly encouraged. Awarding higher grades in exchange for "favors" is allowed as long the grade does not exceed "10 One in a lifetime." "

for saying he aggressively (and successfully)  negotiated rates. In return, I claimed he was a cheapskate who actually lived in the basement of his father's beach cottage on Long Island.

he's still here, just using an alias.
now he seems to spend more time reporting posts over writing them

Can't say because they are no longer on TER.

GaG… we had somewhat of a contentious board relationship over the years.,, but at the end of it all we kinda broke peace, I think. 🤔  
I can say he was a “Goodfella”.
Hope he’s doing well.

I think autocorrect switched from contentious to contagious, which gives a humorous suggestion.

Loved her.
Straight taking, smart, funny as all hell.
We had shared clients and they loved her ❤️

And someone who had an unique name “Fuckyoupayme”.  Long ago his LA post were funny.

...or something like that but that was 20? years ago...

Funny thing, I researched him not too long ago before your post and I came to the same conclusion.

completed the course work at JDU on negotiating a lower price with providers.  It always seemed counterintuitive to me because I could not imagine getting the best effort from a provider after you have talked her into taking a cut on her rate.   It seemed like she would just go through the motions, so I never tried it.  

I didn't take that course or even look at the syllabus but it sounds like the PURPOSE of the course was to TEACH YOU how to negotiate successfully ... and overcome your prejudices, as stipulated in your post, and achieve a POSITIVE outcome.

That sounds irrational to me.

“How can you get a correct answer after you have tried and failed to take the square root of negative 1 because it's impossible to do so?”

like trying to negotiate with a barber.  Even if I get the price down, am I still going to get his best work?  I would rather get a provider's absolute best service than save $50-100.  It's just the way I'm wired.

You reject the whole idea before even taking the class. I haven't seen the syllabus and I don't know who was supposed to teach the class or other details, but consider:
- MAYBE someone has a full-time Mexican housekeeper.
- MAYBE he doesn't need her services for a few days (due to travel or other reason).
- MAYBE he can say to his barber, "How about giving me a break on this haircut. I can send my Mexican housekeeper to tidy up your place for a couple of days [she's full time and I'm paying her no matter what but I don't have to tell that to my "barber"].
-  MAYBE it's a Win-Win-Win:
.
"Barber": Fantastic! I can use the help! I'll even give you TWO extra special great "haircuts" for FREE! Win, win!
Mexican housekeeper: Fantastic! Anything to get away from this stinking hell hole, even just for a day or two! Win, win!
Negotiator: Free "haircuts!" Grumpy maid getting paid to do some actual work instead of lounging at my house doing nothing and eating my food! Win, win!  
.
Negotiations need not be a zero-sum game. ALL participants can WIN if they keep an open mind and listen to the concerns of all the parties.
.
BTW, taking the square root of negative one is not impossible. It is designated as "i." It's a very useful concept. If you weren't open to new ideas you would never know that and not be able to solve a whole new class of real world problems. Likewise for being open about other concepts that are anathema to you. For example, people CAN be re-wired.

For you "Old Dogs"  you probably remember "Fast Eddie!"  (RIP)  Fast Eddie was our contact and inside scoop with porn stars of the day.  He legitimately counted several porn actors as true friends.  He was particularly friendly with Sara Jay as showcased in this video  https://br.spankbang.com/2zzpq/video/sara+jay+sucks+my+dick+in+vegas
