  1. The photos, descriptions, etc are the things you use to assure yourself she is going to be the best possible match to being the type that you like. If you find that even with the information provided you are still having troubles finding any types that you like, then you may, as suggested, have to find a way to like the one you are with lol. It is entirely possible that with the information you are using to make your choice, you are artificially enhancing the details given to you with higher expectations the real person has no way of meeting. There is a certain amount of trial and error, but with an open heart and mind, provided the lady is accomodating, friendly and dedicated to providing you with her best, then you will always enjoy yourself regardless whether you think she met your expectations or not.
  2. I tell ppl this all the time. One very good reason to not use texting for appts, info, or address. Another is the obvious, don't leave a paper trail and history of the transaction, but I digress. Phone call, talk to each other, set it up, meet, done. 3 minutes or less (excluding the meet) and no information is lost.
  3. That is good advice, OD. Also, they may be like me and come on infrequently. I find that unless a pm message is indeed a one or two word like "Rates?" or worse "r8s?", I will reply if only to send a direct link to an ad, with the contact preference all laid out. If I had a website, with the info requested, I would send that instead with a brief note. What we like to know first and foremost that the person contacting us already knows things like location, age, stats, and more. If someone reads my ads, from top to bottom, they know not to bother sending emails, texts or private messages if they are only going to ask about rates/services. My contact preference is phone call only. I know when someone has not read the ad in full if they send me a message of any sort asking those things, and I am unlikely to reply.
  4. I haven't seen all the movies on my personal list yet, I have Limitless waiting for me on PVR, as are Source Code, Adjustment Bureau etc. Hanna is also waiting for me, I think it will be a good one. I did see Sucker Punch, and was impressed by that particular twist ending. It almost ended predictably and I was very glad that it did not. Visually great to watch. Arthur I like Russell Brand, and it was very good casting for this remake. Animated: Hoodwinked Too! Cheech and Chong voices for vengeful little pigs out to blow up the Big Bad Wolf's trailer and evil siblings Hansel and Gretal. I am not a fussy movie watcher, but when something is bad, its bad. Green Hornet was bad, as my expectations were high, but the desire to cast Seth Rogen and write him as a typical SR character was a bad choice.
  5. I like gmail, I never get any spam whatsoever. This incident you mention above, you are not the first one to have that email show up that many times. I think the suggestion was whatever you do, do not go to that site to enter any information to get yourself taken off of it. Its my belief that it is sent out via ads placed somewhere, but they don't have your real email, then they do have it when you click the link and provide the email address you want removed. It looks like the site itself doesn't work or might have been hacked itself, then mass emails sent out via the site?
  6. I would encourage you to at least contact her and go from there. Someone who is right for you isn't always right for someone else, and their opinion may turn you away from a good match.
  7. If I may say, as someone who does offer two distinct session options: (1) don't move anything. The advertisers will just post new ads in the new section. You don't have to be responsible for moving the existing ads, unless maybe the advertiser contacts you and asks directly for the move. (2) & (4) Using both sections is really only valid if the advertiser really does offer distinctly different session options. For example, saying they are willing to do massage and hj at their half hour FS rate is not offering massage option. Saying they offer a different service, complete description and different rate is offering a massage option. For an example, you could view a harmony-bc ad in the vancouvder ads. She is a skilled MA as well as offer FS, but her sessions are clearly outlined that you choose one type or another type. (3) People who seriously offer both massage option and FS option are pretty rare, the cross over is not going to be that big. In my experience on other sites, the # posting in both is really really low. And it can be self policing, if anyone contacting an advertiser in massage sections finds that they are not providing distinct massage sessions, the ad can be reported. Those points are just based on my experiences advertising on both sections, fwiw, may not be worth anything at all lol
  8. I think the threat of stings is very real, and that the screening is very important. If escorting is only going to be a background to the story, you may not need to know too much more than that without going into specific details of the biz down there. I think that face pics are actually more common than here, for validity and so clients arriving (or having sp arrive) can be more sure it won't be an LE sting. I think that there is a perception that rates are crazy high, but there is also just as much chance someone is working at 100/hr as they are at 500/hr, or more, so it isn't really a for sure thing. You may want your character to be higher end tho, and independent, so she can charge and be located wherever you like. She is not going to provide menus of services, and she will have that standard rates are for time clause, of course. She will hang up or ignore emails and calls from anyone wanting her to get specific about them, fwiw. I haven't heard of any clients being required to show CCs, but ID yes, like driver license. Keeping in mind that LE has no problem providing that either. She could tho use references, date check services, and you can eliminate some of the need to discuss the screening in detail.
  9. If you choose to use a board handle as a screening tool, one reason to do that is to actually go and read their posts. Just being a member here doesn;t mean you may decide what you offer and what you think they may be looking for is the same thing. You can get an idea of what they like by recommendations or comments they may be making.
  10. This is a great idea. It is already in use on many advertising only sites, so many providers are accustomed if the offer both massage only sessions and full service sessions they will post an ad in both. I can see in this area the massage only section would be fairly busy (usually elsewhere there are very few massage only providers or providers who do decent sensual massage enough to make it a separate session option) I think both the MAs and the SPs would find they will be happy with the separation, and the increased chance the clients don't get tired of looking before they find what they are looking for when they can go direct to the section that appeals to them first.
  11. Perhaps you could give examples? Were any clients at all called in for testimony? Was there anyone other than the supportive sp as witnesses? I am not sure of the extent of the investigation, as it sounds a lot like the investigators and charges decided before they arrived what was happening there, and what they were going to pursue, and wouldn't take the truth for an answer lol. I do know some back story here, and things portrayed are not always as they seem. Especially here on an escort/client forum, I do hope that folks already know that sps and their clients are not a danger to society, their neighbours, or their children most of the time. At least, not more often than civilians are a danger to society, their neighbours, or their children, The fact the courts/police etc could make such easy work of this is because she was an escort, not in spite of it, and not because she was loud about it either. they seized an opportunity to strike fear into both sps who work from home and clients. When sps work from home in Winnipeg they are safe from LE stings. If they make them fearful of offering that, they will do more outcalls. In Winnipeg, LE sets up outcall stings, arranges for the sp to appear, then tells them they are breaking the law (which of course they are not) but in any case, they stop working for the night or several days. I don't underestimate these people, from dropping drunks and SWs into the boonies in sub zero temperature nights, to whatever else they get up to including false evidence and intimidation tactics.
  12. From what I can see from my own research, Costa Rica is incredibly difficult to get to without stops and lengthy delays. If you do decide on it, check Air Canada flights with one single stop connection in Toronto. You have to play with the dates and schedule until you find that non-stop from toronto. If not, the flight can have 3-4 stops, layovers, and can take 12-15 or more hours lol. You can lose one full day there, and another full day back. In spite of this, I do plan to get there some time this year lol, to check out the volcano areas. From your side of the country, you may also want to look at the other Caribbean Islands besides DR. Mexico I'd go back to any time. Easy to reach, usually great charter deals, and set up for tourists. Easy choice for short trips like 7-14 day vacations.
  13. Please always ask first, many of us have it as a no go zone, and now I end up saying don't go there before session starts lol. For one thing, I cannot subject myself to the inevitable infection that comes about from transfering from dato to daty, or by hand, due to the bacteria in the area. If someone does do it, they have to know enough to not go back and forth from one to the other, use one hand one place the other for the 2nd place, and/or be prepared to mouthwash, wash face and hands before returning to daty. Also, hep B shots help. Other than than, personal preference on a sensitive area means don't assume, just ask first. I don't blame your sp for jumping!
  14. Awesome achievement. I too will always look forward to your next posting, as we tend to agree on many issues.
  15. I think there were issues with gmail from time to time, and on a regular basis I get asked to set my account to a cel ph#, which I refuse to do. There is a very unobvious spot to click on to skip that, fwiw. As for a website on google, that could well be the issue. I don't think that their TOS includes adult content, and all it would take was a few reports to get them alerted to it. You don't want your website down for any reason, and being subject to the whimsy of google might be the best reason to move onto an alternative.
  16. I saw a couple of reviews before of an sp who does golf date sessions, and ski day sessions. Both sound like great ideas for either an sp or a civilian date.
  17. 4000! You have a lot to say, and imo, I am always happy to listen.
  18. I like food related things. I would prefer a buffet style meal to a sit down one, as it leads to discussion and is more active as well.
  19. I actually try to stay away from resolutions, to avoid disappointing myself lol. It is fun tho to reflect on the past year and find any way to improve on the coming year, great for personal growth and change.
  20. ack, my little rep point comment got messed up. Basically saying that some folks may not realize that the way of this business has been undergoing subtle changes. Sps to a certain extent have learned from the cooperation of clients working together and this has been shown on forums and boards. Basically sps have discovered also that working together is far more beneficial than working competitively. This is new and to some new is scary. They want to try to control that, turn back the clock, but its too late. So yes, people feel out of place, maybe some of the things that they say and do are no longer relevant in this new world of interconnection and cooperation, and the response to their assumptions can be swift and not always supportive lol It would be really cool if there could be a realization that sps/client dynamics are not the same as they were in the past. Think instead of jealous, now solidarity, cooperation and collective.
  21. Wow, another lady whose contributions have meant so much to me since my arrival here. Very well earned.
  22. This is a reflection of how the majority of us view your contribution. Very much deserved.
  23. I don't do anything big because that would have to be explained, but I get a kick out of how thrilled regular and new clients are when I give them a mini candy cane at this time of year. (The ones I got this year were not nearly as terrific as I found before, which bummed me out, but nevertheless it is fun). Also useful, to have a fresh minty breath later lol. My friend is conscious of the diabetics and so gives out mandarin oranges wrapped in festive napkins. Again, I would stay away from personalized items, and larger items, but these small things put a smile on someone's face it makes my day.
  24. If I call someone back, it will be with a blocked #, so they don't end up with a record of my number calling them. Hopefully all sps will do this, to protect your privacy, so I'd say that if you left a message and could reasonably expect a call back within an hour or so, just answer it. I'll be on the other side here, because I do answer block #s. Alot of time, you didn't have call disply. You get accustomed to 'hearing' the voice, and tone, etc, to be able to verify sincerity, but also to not give out too much info regarding address, etc. I started at a time when people didn't have celphones, would call from home or work for info, and you did the 2nd call from a nearby payphone. 90% of all the payphones I used to direct people to are now gone lol. When celphones started being used, most of the time with call display you knew it was a cel because it showed up block. Then finally #s would show up, and now when people call from some businesses and major hotels, the # is blocked, so it has gone around to another way lol. In any case, if you have experience with phone calls, and limiting information given out to block #s, etc, (for me they will have to call 3-4 times to get the complete address, their choice to block their number, my choice to restrict access to info until I know they are only 5 minutes from my door to reduce time wasted by a time waster. A LOT of my good long time regulars called first from a block #, and still do. Even if I mention when they call that I would know who they are as soon if I saw their number, they are still not motivated to unblock when calling me lol. If I get a nuisance caller whether the # shows or not, I use *60 to block them from calling me again. they get directed to a message saying I am not answering them specifically. I agree with the comment above. If you never ever plan to answer block #s, why not just set up the No Block # feature on your phone? The phone won't ring, they will be informed they are calling from a block # and given the option to call back unblocked, or press one to have the call go thru revealing their # to you. I think that would eliminate the waste of time, and the ones who simply do not know their # is blocked.
  25. lattes fish and chips hmm, not sure what else. i enjoy discussions online, but am pretty sure I should be able to live without that.
