LOOKING FOR AN ESCORT or How They Taught Me To Save My Money

[Guest082216-1]

Log out and surf your showcase and you will get an idea of what is truly public. I dont remember specificly what is restricted and what is completly public. Maybe one of the more experienced members can tell us?

Can they see the rates? Guess I need to do some research to see exactly what can be viewed and what can not.

My guess is that you may increase PA membership substantially by this simple measure..."you don't know what you don't know"...

I agree with you 100%. So other than saying "PM/email/call me for information" what else is there to do? It's a catch 22. Either guys pay for access to the information, or folks put themselves in a bad spot by having to discuss taboo topics. I still think having BCD tags for the ladies to use in their ads is an idea that has yet to be implemented. Then those who have BCD access can still see the hidden stuff w/o having premium access, right? Or are BCD and premium the same thing? lol

Hot lips, They are bascily the same thing. Anyone who posts a review can see everything in that thread but if they have not yet been given PA, they cannot see any restricted info such as the ROS section (sometimes called BCD) in a review in any other thread, nor read private tags, nor access the Mens Lounge. Once they are given PA, they get to see all the contents of your showcase such as rates and specials, access to the ML, able to read all private commnets in threads and the ROS section of all reviews.

The current coding is such that a member has to have PA to access any of this private stuff. If a provider were given private tags to use, they would have access to ALL PA content, same as the guys who have PA. The two are tied together, not seperate abilities. I am not a programer but from what has been explained to me, it is not a trivial task to recode things to allow ladies to have private tags without giving you everything.

Does that help understand it better?

Yes Bubba, it does. Thanks! I just know on the A we had that capability. Not sure how difficult it is to do, as I'm not a programmer either! hehe
