As far of bans and members getting banned it’s never been as bad as some people make it appear, (we will not openly discuss members who might have been banned) I will say talk about minors or images of minors will result in immediate infractions also any outing or attempted outing will result in a ban.
Links are fine. The pictures in the girls adds are not hosted on ECCIE so it’s not our problem.
Links to OH, Tryst or a competitive site is OK
Any pictures actually posted on ECCIE is stored on the ECCIE servers and these must adhere to the image guidelines
This should give you enough guidance to feel comfortable posting links without the fears of a imaginary ban hammer coming down on you.
Remember the moderators and administrators are here to offer assistance so if there are questions just PM and ask.

Dr I get that none of what has transpired has been yours or any other mods fault and I have never blamed you or any other mod personally for any of the bans I have received in the past. But the truth is the truth and I have been banned for posting links to stg ads that had minor nudity or even pictures that were sexually suggestive in the past. I feel as though I was targeted in those instances because I am outspoken about my displeasure with what I see as rules that dont protect the site from the feds and their new unjust laws and do nothing but make the hobby less safe and more difficult for those of us who use this site to specifically to make it easier and more safe.
I have never understood how anything linked from here that doesn't break any federal or state law ie images ads links to sites or anything that can legally be hosted elsewhere can get you banned here for merely posting a link to it in a post here. If its legal elsewhere I dont see how the act of posting it here suddenly makes it illegal. I am no lawyer so I have little or no actual understanding of the laws so I could be way off base.
I think people may think that I do not like this site and want to do everything I can to put it down or get people to leave it for another site that allows all the things this site once did but no longer can. Thats simply not true. I love Eccie and have great appreciation for the tremendous amount of good it has done for me and the hobby in general over the years. This place has been my hobby home for over a decade and as such I appreciate it greatly. I just wish it could revamp itself to being as useful as possible for the benefit of all of us who hobby.
The next and best thing the site could do to the betterment of all would be to start a section that allows verified ladies to post links to sites not hosted here with post that have their pics and some text maybe saying where they are or where they are going to be and the dates and numbers that one could interpret as a way to contact those ladies via text or call and what those ladies might expect in return for their time. That would be legal as long as it was not hosted here. They could make these post on stg then have a section in each city that gets its own list of links that only verified ladies can post in so us guys know when when we see a link posted in that section that its a lady who is legit and verified and most importantly safe to visit. That would not only be good for us men but it would be great for the ladies as well. I dont see how that is breaking any laws as they are written now.
All in all just allowing us to post links to stg and other add sites is a huge step in the right direction. Just as long as these links are not combed over and used to ban people for things that are totally legal to post on the site that its linked from ie nudes or girls listing their rates and contact info. In the past those things while completely legal have been used to ban people who post links here. I know as I said I have been on the receiving end of the banhammer many times due to posting links from stg that had nudity in them.
How about iso's are those still not allowed?
Can we post alerts in coed if we hear of cash and dash or stings going on?
Can a lady post in coed a link to her stg add in the city she is visiting and not say anything just post the link? Us guys are smart enough to know what that information means and how to use it to our benefit.
We all know why the site has to play the game the way we have to play it and all of us reasonable people understand that its necessary to keep the owners as well as us end users safe from possible legal action. The thing is there are clever ways to work around these things and still get the info we need to hobby and do so safely. It would be great if the site got behind us and supported us doing just that. Getting the information out in a legal way that still makes the site very useful for the purpose it was created for in the first place.
Regardless things are looking up and for that I am happy.
God I am long winded. Just to ask a few questions I typed a small book. I hope none of you read all that
