I've been in the bowl a month and a half. Here are my thoughts in no particular order. Please comment and fill in - I'm hoping to create "the Bible." A place for newbies to go so the same questions don't always get asked.

1. The bowl was created when some wacky individual thought, "what if I could negotiate with hookers?"

2. You know how they say the best spy is one who doesn't know he or she is a spy. Well, the best hooker is one...

3. I started out in the bowl being extremely picky and reading all profiles, and then contacting ladies. I got so few responses that I just decided to blast  every lady who i found remotely attractive - this brought more responses and eventually whittled itself down. I now have about 10 POT SB (off SA) I contact  via text, e-mail.  

4. I had 8 planned meetups - four were no shows. The four whom I met were pretty solid. Though none went BCD after the meeting, I am supposed to meet one this week for a . "ppm". I'm hoping it happens but accept that it may fall through....which brings me to...

5. There is so much riff raff on SA - I'm not sure how anyone has the patience for it. Fake photos are just the beginning. Women stringing me along with 20 texts only to ask for my paypal info. They string me along and ultimately tell me they're just looking for friendship...or they just ghost. I believe there are gems in there but is it worth the mining time?

6. Any lady who would force me to negotiate ppm, allowance before we met, I would generally low ball. I told them I would low ball them if they made me negotiate sight unseen - and that's what I did. Half of them ghosted, half started to negotiate. Some of the ones who I felt were all about the money, I would ask what I get for my gift. Do they use a female condom, do greek, MSOG? Once i did this, virtually all of them took offense -  if they knew what I meant.

7. So there are more women than men on SA but i think there are many fake profiles. Also, do a search of just college ladies - virtually all of them are premium members. I would go 8 pages deep and still almost all were premium members. Are you telling me broke college students can pony up $80, $90 a month for the service. Something is fishy here. Several of the women I spoke with get 10 messages a day without lifting a finger. I have to send 200 messages to get ten responses.

8. tired now but will continue adding to post..

Does anyone know what happened to all the replies to this thread? Do I need to start screenshooting all threads I'm interested in?
Thanks everyone for all the  responses.

I had at least a half dozen pulled last week for reasons I can't even begin to fathom.

I guess they worry I might somehow offend the few people who still come on here.

My posts are also disappearing for reasons I don't understand. Is this the thread where the question of SBs' versus non-SB Providers' education claims came up? mrfisher mentioned he dated a law student. I replied about meeting an MBA or Econ/Finance student from a top 10 school (true) and made a joke about receiving a grade from her as proof (I got an A+ in Finance for the fat envelope but an F for Performance ). And then there were another couple of jokey replies.  All of that disappeared.

Maybe removing my humorous, entertaining posts is Admin's way of heckling me.  
.
mrfisher and impposter walked into a bar ... impposter asked, "Who was that hooker I saw you with last night?" mrfisher answered, "That was no hooker, that was my wife."  
.
(For the humor impaired, mrfisher has posted several times that he married a Provider, Beverly Fisher, now retired, and that is how he chose the handle mrfisher. Furthermore, there is the classic Henny Youngman joke: Straightman: "Who was that lady I saw with last night?" Henny: "That was no lady, that was my wife." Rim shot.)
