Maybe because the rules as currently interpreted in Texas treat the ladies as an inferior species.

Maybe it is because of posts/opinions like yours that believe any post by a woman is an ad until proven otherwise.

Maybe it is because of the pack mentality that attacks many women in a relentless gang manner.

In the final days of ASPD a migration began and people had a few different choices available and for about a year there were other sites jockeying for members....

ECCIE flourished and a major reason it did was that the Owners here put an end to the OVER moderation of these forums that existed to the point of corruption, Austin being one of the corrupt cities in the system with Whores and Agencies controlling the information and membership through a corrupt staff.

The site is about information..... You don't need a warm fuzzy spot for information to be exchanged.... The freedom to do so is what has to be maintained and they do that quite well here.

You have a choice. There are other sites... Leave.

As is often the case, some remembrances are part truth, part revisionist.

Yes,many of the the Texas boards became controlled by a small number of rather disgusting human beings who managed to oust those who were not part of their ilk and replace them with more like minded thugs and scum. And while there were women and agencies involved in the corruption, there were also men. A piece you seem want to gloss over. And sadly, some of the offenders can still be found here.

But the "cause" was not over-moderation as you seem to claim, but out and out censorship and criminal mindsets. Fair and honest moderation can be loser or more restrictive, but still be fair and honest. I doubt anyone wants to recreate the late days of ASPD, but your supposition that the only alternative is the current acceptance of often hostile posts does not follow. There is a serious difference between how content is moderated vice how civility is moderated.

The current moderation is an interesting kluge of standards.

Just as one example, calling someone a whore or a cunt, both derogatory terms in general parlance, is OK. Even if the intended meaning is hostile.

But the term asshole apparently cannot be directed at someone, even though it is no more negative in common usage.

That by itself is not an earth shattering issue, but it seems highly representative of the current state of the environment. An environment where very thinly veiled insults are allowed, where people CAN hurt a woman's business with innuendo with little if any consequence.

You reiterate "exchange of information",but there seems to be a word missing from your mantra. HONEST information. I am not saying your posts are or are not honest--in most cases I do not know enough to comment on that part. My point is more that you do not seem to really care whether it is of not.

I don't think seller is less, that's basically what I'm hearing you and whispers and a few others say: The board is created for men and caters to men, women shouldn't be empowered, russellevans said the women are just here to lie on our backs and get fucked and get our money. So there is very apparent inequity.

An information exchange doesn't have to be warm and fuzzy but also needn't be hostile.

I would agree with you.

You have to phrase it as a question or a joke, like:

Question: Are Whispers and SL the biggest assholes on the site?

Answer: Define "biggest".

There is certainly "information"posted here that is not accurate. I try to verify everything I post but I know that is not always the case with others.

Much of what we deal with cannot be proven within the confines of the guidelines. Credibility comes into play.

It is up to each and every member to weigh the information presented if it may influence some decision they make. Look at prior post history of the poster.... Weigh how information they have provided in the past has proven accurate or inaccurate and decide what is best for them.

I understand your concern that unproven information can hurt a provider's ability to earn but time has proven that in the long term, a provider's positive track record overcomes false negativity that comes her way....

However I don't concern myself with that aspect of it. I am a proponent of the rights of the guys spending money to have ANY and ALL information to weigh....

That is the defined and stated purpose of the board from the owners.

One thing 18 years here has shown me...... The women that run ads, see clients and rack up positive reviews flourish and seldom have ANY negativity come their way......

The more women post in CoEd the more attention they draw to themselves and at some point that attention turns negative.... Very often it is another woman that is the source of the negativity that finds their peer....

I agree with above. It is rare for me to see one of my LTFs posting in Coed. They often post in PA and sometimes in old SNATCH thread, but rarely post in Coed because of the Drama from the "Usual Suspects." They are simply too busy taking care of their business, not others' business.

It could also be that they are just well managed and trained. Or that they are scared of repercussions . Maybe they truly are kept busy bu having a life and hobby . One can never tell in these things.

Or that they are scared of repercussions. I think that most guys & gals who even "think" about posting in Coed are scared of that.
Maybe they truly are kept busy by having a life and hobby.BINGO, RW life and Hobby keep them very busy, and they don't live their lives posting on eccie.
One can never tell in these things. You can if you pay attention.

Have a great day.

[FirePhoenix]

Let's not forget about all the providers from around the country and world that actively participate in their coed forums. Why they must not have any business either. That many providers just don't have a life or know how to keep their mouth shut. Damn, I am part of the Arabic world and I didnt even know it.

[FirePhoenix]

And yes,if you know what your looking at you can tell who's managed and who's not.

[Austin Ellen]

Hmmmmm, so BB,what are you saying? Women shouldn't post in co-ed? Women should be seen and not heard?? Oh boy - that sounds like censorship to me.

[FirePhoenix]

You see BB, I did have a life. One where I had blinders on to stayed ignorant of the world and built a wonderful fantasy playground. Now some people thought that I needed to wake up and forced me to take off my blinders. So,I have.

Damn, I am part of the Arabic world and I didnt even know it.Haven't a clue about what you are implying or mean here.

Sounds like another thread, nothing to do with my comments.

Just implying that multiple daily posts in multiple threads, every day, every week "could indicate" that a poster doesn't have much else happening--applies equally to boys and girls. Far too much DRAMA and Controversy in the ATX Coed is well-recognized throughout eccie, let's say verse sharing hobby info as happens in other cities. Actually, this does indirectly provide info to the readers.

Women shouldn't post in co-ed? Women should be seen and not heard?? Now you are going off the deep end. No, didn't say that. None of that was implied or even contemplated in my earlier response.

Oh boy - that sounds like censorship to me.I have found in my personal situation that self-censorship can be a virtue. In this case, I should have never said anything at all.
Look what I started... Guess that will teach me to post in Coed. Going away now.
Mic Drop. DONE.

Just saying.
