Well, maybe not so gentle.

I try not to be a rules nazi, but there is one rule I will enforce rigidly. A provider is permitted one ad thread in a 7 day period, I will not tolerate negative or snarky comments on an ad thread.

You're 'hobbyists'. That implies you're here to have fun. They are working ladies - you can figure out the rest.

Unless you got robbed at gunpoint when you saw her last night, if you have some rude or snide comment to make that you just can't hold in, email it to her. If you post it on her ad thread, I promise you'll be moderated for a long time. If you're already moderated,your posts just might take take days or weeks to get approved from then on.

Have fun. Play nice. When in doubt, refer to my personal FAQ:

"Welcome to TER. Don't be a dick."
