Split Dallas and Fort Worth

[conkidinnh]

Anyone else think we should have Dallas and Fort Worth split up in the site?

[Sir Lancehernot]

Yes. But it'll never happen. That's why one reason I started the TCLR.

[Bushjumper]

Yes. Dallas is too far to drive from Ft. Worth.

[TinMan]

Yes. TCLR is doing a good job of filling that need. Maybe one day it will convince the powers that be of a need for separate public forums.

30 miles is all it is. It's not like you driving to El Paso.

30 miles that can take over an hour. You must not have to drive in peak traffic times. Or have plenty of time on your hands.

I'm sure there are more.

I don't see a need for a split.. it's not practical, and SL's Tarrant County site fills the need for those who want to zero in on the western side of our area.

that said, if SL had not started his site...

[Tsmokies]

It wouldn't matter...some ladies still wouldn't put their general location in their ads or ISO replys. Heck, a lot of the guys don't put a general location in their ISOs so nobody knows where anybody is.??? I always put a general location in my ISOs....smfh. I know where I am playing

Not to dig up the arguments I have made in the past, but ...

It would be more practical. You want to make a post pertinent to the hobby east of 360, you post in a thread that says "Dallas." You want to make a post pertinent to the hobby west of 360, you post in a thread that says "Fort Worth."

Writing the code to create the new forums can't be that difficult.

I have listings for 134 active providers in Fort Worth, 42 in HEB, 32 in Arlington, and six in North Richland Hills. I'm sure I've missed several, if not many, here on ECCIE, as well as most of those in BP-Escorts (I do watch the bodyrub ads, though, as the women there are less transient, and many don't do just bodyrubs), and we won't even begin to discuss the TC subAMPs. I think that 200 providers in one county is more than enough to merit its own geographic distinction.

And then we could get into all the Dallas women who post in the Fort Worth ads forum, and the difficulty in ascertaining from a review subject line whether a lady is geographically compatible.

But, anyway, as I said earlier, nothing will change. TPTB are too Dallas-centric, any suggestion for change is inherently a criticism of the status quo, and, now that the TCLR is up, adopting the OPs suggestion would deprive ownership of a revenue stream.

Ain't gonna happen.

I'm all for it. Nothing worse that finding out a gal you like is way the fuck over in Tarrant County.

The reverse is equally frustrating. And much more likely.

[Chung Tran]

I like the "east/west of 360" idea, but.. it aint gonna happen.. how many people here would not know that geographical demarcation? probably many. it could be simplified as "Arlington and west", but I think that is not as easy as it sounds.

the main problem, in my view, is guys who play in both arenas would have to pull up 2 forums.. it would be quite cumbersome. and those in Irving, (East) Arlington, Grand Prairie (even HEB, perhaps) would naturally gravitate to the "Dallas" forum, given the relative plethora of ladies.. which leaves a much smaller, albeit still numerous (compared to, say, an Oklahoma city or Arkansas) Tarrant County forum.

I think SL's TC site has addressed the split forum need as adequately as one can.

[TinMan]

As long as he's willing to front the time and money to do it. His forum has been very helpful, but it's not a given it will be around forever.

Seriously, it's not that far of a drive.
I make the drive daily from the DFW airport area to Uptown...Daily.
I have been for years now.

If you find someone of quality to make the drive for, research her and her location, book in advance and I bet she'll be worth it.
