Dreamgirl 246 Report post Posted August 27, 2008 I see you guys have problems with fake pics the ladies should authentified their pics, you know like they do on myspace... well all they have to do is having a piece of paper with C.E.R.B. on it HANDWRITTEN and show it on the picture Then the mod could authentify the ladie profile , so all guys would know the ladie is genuine and they would definitly get more calls , they could be placed in a special section : 100% authentic ladies i think it s a good idea!! what about you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oncenawyle 101 Report post Posted August 27, 2008 That is a darn fine idea Dream Girl. I think it would make the honest ladies alot more business as well. Knowing that you won't be the victim of a bait and switch is a huge comfort. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emma Alexandra 123367 Report post Posted August 27, 2008 yes they have that on alot of the good advertising sites. They also use it for age verification etc. I'm not sure we have that we have the problem on here but it wouldn';t hurt. kisses, Emma A Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mod 135639 Report post Posted August 28, 2008 We do it on escorts-canada.com (have done it for years) it's popular in Toronto with the big Asian bait and switch issues. For instance we put one up today of an asian lady (here is the link) http://www.escorts-canada.com/cgi-bin/ad?id=8066 Notice under her photo it has a verified image They must send us a photo holding a piece of paper with their E.C. Account number on it... the problem we still have however is when 2 or more ladies work off the same ad. They verify the photo as one lady and when she is busy others take the calls so they can easily circumvent this - that problem has happened in Winnipeg a lot). I think a feedback system would be great (Like ebay) but that would take some crazy programming and booking systems to make that one work. LOL...

Guest hot_lyxxx Report post Posted August 28, 2008 It sounds like Mod and many others are doing their best which is most appreciated and Dreamgirl's suggestion has merit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cowboy kenny 50799 Report post Posted August 28, 2008 It is a good idea but the issue with fake pictures isn't so much with this site, but rather some of the free classified listings, which are beyond the control of mod. There have been a few on this site or EC and have been caught relatively quickly, and dealt with accordingly. True there still remains some questionable albums on here, that I've seen and as brought to my attention by 1 member, but those who chose to sneak in false misleading photos on this forum are only doing themselves a dis-service as they will be caught and exposed and asked to explain the deception.

Read; made to squirm and feel awkward, then we will think up a suitable penance for them :D (usually time out or banished!!) I love this board. And of course the lower revenue from the lose of support however I think these agencies and ladies who are desperate enough to do this probably don't get much from us anyway.

mod 135639 Report post Posted August 28, 2008 If we let these asian bait and switch guys advertise on EC or even here we would probably see about 40 to 50 grand a year in advertising revenue just from all of them. This is why most sites allow them to advertise (Knowingly) - in fact as far as I know I think we are the only ones who will not allow them to advertise (Are we kidding ourselves believing that integrity will make us a more trusted site? are we insane for refusing 40+ thousand dollars a year in advertising revenue? - We still get comments about other bait and switch ladies sneaking ads on E.C. and people saying "It's all because of the money and they don't care who advertises as long as they are paying for the ads"). Funny thing is... the Asian bait and switch agencies advertise on some of the discussion boards that have massive amounts of threads warning everyone they are fake (terb is a prime example). How does this make sense? I figure most people online now know what they are all about... but I feel bad for all the new guys who just start using the internet to find a date and see a beautiful Asian lady (or any bait and switch ad) and say "That is the one for my first time experience!" the guy would be so upset that he may never hire a lady again, would defiantly never hire a lady from that site again and worst case loose all trust for online photo advertising so it would impact us (who are trying to do it right). Some of those guys would later find the discussion boards and we hear it all too often ... "I wish I had found cerb before booking a lady". Let's hope more people find CERB first.

ulixestrojan 3757 Report post Posted August 28, 2008 A punishment for fake pics should be the same as a punishment for a fake grail-shaped beacon: A SPANKING. From the Sacred Texts of Monty Python: http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/mphg/mphg.htm DINGO: Where are you going? GALAHAD: I seek the Grail! I have seen it, here in this castle! DINGO: No! Oh, no! Bad, bad Zoot! GALAHAD: What is it? DINGO: Oh, wicked, bad, naughty Zoot! She has been setting alight to our beacon, which, I just remembered, is grail-shaped. It's not the first time we've had this problem. GALAHAD: It's not the real Grail? DINGO: Oh, wicked, bad, naughty, evil Zoot! Oh, she is a naughty person, and she must pay the penalty -- and here in Castle Anthrax, we have but one punishment for setting alight the grail-shaped beacon. You must tie her down on a bed and spank her! GIRLS: A spanking! A spanking! DINGO: You must spank her well. And after you have spanked her, you may deal with her as you like. And then, spank me. VARIOUS GIRLS: And spank me. And me. And me. DINGO: Yes, yes, you must give us all a good spanking! GIRLS: A spanking! A spanking! DINGO: And after the spanking, the oral sex. GIRLS: Oral sex! Oral sex! GALAHAD: Well, I could stay a BIT longer. LAUNCELOT: Sir Galahad! GALAHAD: Oh, hello. LAUNCELOT: Quick! GALAHAD: What? LAUNCELOT: Quick! GALAHAD: Why? LAUNCELOT: You're in great peril! LAUNCELOT: Silence, foul temptress! GALAHAD: Now look, it's not important. LAUNCELOT: Quick! Come on and we'll cover your escape! GALAHAD: Look, I'm fine! LAUNCELOT: Come on! GALAHAD: Now look, I can tackle this lot single-handed! DINGO: Yes! Let him tackle us single-handed! GIRLS: Yes! Tackle us single-handed! LAUNCELOT: No, Sir Galahad, come on! GALAHAD: No, really, honestly, I can go back and handle this lot easily! DINGO: Oh, yes, he can handle us easily. GIRLS: Yes, yes! GALAHAD: Wait! I can defeat them! There's only a hundred and fifty of them! DINGO: Yes, yes, he'll beat us easily, we haven't a chance. GIRLS: Yes, yes. DINGO: Oh, shit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cowboy kenny 50799 Report post Posted August 29, 2008 Funnily enough you mention OAN and Asian Bait and switch I've been quietly working on something for the last week and hope to have a full report up on my blog soon, stay tuned! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mod 135639 Report post Posted August 29, 2008 You can't blame them for taking the advertising revenue.. any newspaper would so it's hard to hold them accountable as most people would not turn down advertising revenue and would not take a personal interest in that as we do. They are just the medium and may not pay as much attention to what those ads are really all about and the effect they could have long term on the business. Most sites do just care about the $$ and that drives the sites.... Sure we could all be driving hummers and stuff for that extra 40+K a year so maybe I am being stupid for taking a stance but I do think it will damage the industry if it's allowed to continue. On another note but in the same category... From the looks of it your really ticking off the bait and switch CL abusers ... I read the email in your blog and the grammar and spelling kill me! I thought I had bad spelling!! (Did you point out that looser and loser are totally different words?) .... I just hope they don't try to track you down some way it sounds like they may not be playing with a full deck if you know what I mean! ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cowboy kenny 50799 Report post Posted August 29, 2008 Thanks mod, i'm not so concerned about them tracking me down I've got nothing to hide and all I'm asking them is to be honest and practice good business. There's enough stigma with this industry/hobby it doesn't have to be tainted more by sketchy operators and fly by night wanna be pimps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can totally relate! It gives me great satisfaction to flag fake ads from time to time. I also enjoy using "block" on MSN. Very useful when you end up talking to a troll.

Cowboy kenny 50799 Report post Posted August 31, 2008 A nice little post on CL linking to your diary would really tick them off! Trust me i thought of it , but you may not be aware of the hoops you must jump through to post in that section,including leaving your phone number and other reference details. I have nothing to hide but it's hardly worth my effort. I believe they instituted these measures because of the sillyness between agencies and indys posting false ads, not just here but in other cities as well. It's fun to flag but I also enjoy letting them hang out to dry, but i realize not all those who use cl visit here or terb or my blog, so they don't know any better and are likely victims of B & S. I'm glad yall are enjoying my blog, it's fun and it's a good place to refernce known B&S numbers, if ever your not sure feel free to check the (unfortunately) growing list. If I've missed one, let me know and I'll add it. Next week I'll have a post about a once popular portal and how they've resorted to submitting to b & s practices to maintain revenues.
