Re: Sad not angry. It obvious you don't understand the legal repercussions.
I;m glad you have taken it upon yourself do what you can to help, even with no one asking you to.
I am doing nothing. I don't think ladies should be allowed to post on here anyways. Ads only. This site is fo men, you ladies start too much drama and complain too much
Not a frequent poster -- the rare posts I put up are usually on the NY board. But a long time member and reviewer.
Even though I have 7 weeks left on my membership, just want to say thanks to the great TER staff and the service they have provided for us over the years. And thanks to all the great members here as well. This was a fantastic community for us "hobbyists" (believe it or not, this is first time time I am using this word) and "providers" (don't use this word often either) alike.
These are sad times for anyone who appreciates free speech and individual liberty.
Anyway, thanks to all and best wishes. I'll be checking in until my 7 weeks are up, so feel free to PM if you like. Take care. - Slim.
I won't renew my VIP but I will keep checking in reading and posting if pertinent. I'm thinking as others figure it out they'll slowly return and it'll be a little more active around here though you are correct the main use of this site is dried up for the present.
TER PM is the ONLY place I feel comfortable discussing my hobby activities with other hobbyists and providers. The cost for a year is less than I typically pay for a one-hour session, and if continuing PM's with guys in my local area can keep me from one bad experience in the course of a year, the VIP pays for itself. Anything ELSE I learn during the same year is a free bonus.
Posting on the boards, trying to keep things going. I have to say that right now TER is not making it easy for the ladies here at all. Starting with taking down the ad boards, which did me a world of good, particularly when visiting another state. Now they are hyper sensitive about what ladies are saying in their posts, and calling some ads instead of actually trying the help the ladies out a bit. I mean they did away with all ads boards in the US for heaven's sake. If they want ladies to stick around and make an effort, making things even more difficult for us to get any promotion isn't the way to go IMO.
I've always loved TER even when they made changes I didn't like, but now...I'm getting the feeling they are being harder than ever. Ladies are having to go elsewhere, even if they don't want to just to survive! Same thing with the gentlemen here. Because MANY ladies don't have their reviews anymore, neither do the guys! It's become harder to verify gentlemen IMO because I can't see most of the reviews a gentleman has posted over the years.
And even now, most people out there still have no idea they can access the site with a VPN set outside of the US. We all have to try and get people back on the boards! I honestly have never done "this" without TER so it SUX for me. This place was hands down THE best community of like minded individuals in the adult biz. TER is been around for almost 20 years, and to see it crippled to this extent is frankly hard to watch.
But I'm still here as I have been since 2005.Hoping things will get better, but being very concerned it won't.
I'm sure TER lawyers are sorting out what they can and cannot allow. I think they are just being safe/conservative in the meanwhile. Look for other resources to fill the gaps temporarily. New entrepeneurs will arise. I am lucky that I have a lot of repeat girls to call and had a long "to see" list before SESTA happened. It takes effort, but emailing girls works just fine.
SESTA has not stopped me, just made things more work. Switter has introduced me to women I never would have looked at before. I am currently planning a trip to Vegas to meet the love of my life...see link. This is something I never would have done pre-SESTA.
Tell me about it... i watch my VIP days drop one by one..others have said there is no ability to purchase VIP once its gone... so in the interim i haunt Switter and P411 setting up connections that i trust.. but trying not to waste anyones time.. i actually remember that i was supposed to see you about 4 years ago in Boston, but an unexpected business trip forced me to cancel...
They had to put that on TER disclaimer....however I just talked to Staff and we can continue to use the same ways we did to purchase VIP. So no reason for people to leave TER....and you can still post reviews, just make sure to fill the form with a location outside the US - like Toronto, London....because is 'where' you met that lovely lady wink wink
Unfortunately it looks like your attempt to purchase VIP membership has failed due to your card being declined. Good news is that we have several other payment options that you could try.
