SO TX - Low Participation

Jack, you seem sincere in your assessment. So, I will give you a helpful answer. The SNATCH thread was full of violations. But, your modtard was not enforcing the guidelines. A SNATCH thread is a lot of work for a modtard team. Because, whores don't read and follow directions. Every post in that threAD that posted anything beyond "I am available right now" or "My 10am today cancelled. So,I am available" was in violation. Every post that said they were available for the next day. Every post that said "HI, I am here for 2 days". Every post that posted price and arrival to the valley information were a violation. There were more violations in the thread than non-violations.

South Texas does not get a separate set of guidelines than the rest of the board. The SA modtards are constantly dealing with violations in their SNATCH forum. Houston and Dallas modtards got fed up with all the work and shut theirs down. You, as a member, do not see that. Because, only the member in violation gets that PM.

You (South Texas) do not have a right to a SNATCH thread. You have one modtard MIA. You have one modtard who showed no interest in moderating the SNATCH thread. You have one rookie modtard who does not yet know how to moderate a SNATCH thread. That puts it all on biomed1's shoulders. It is up to him whether to take on that task. You do have the benefit of being a small market. Two modtards willing to do the work should be able to handle it. The key is cooperation from your whores. It is not supposed to be a place where whores rack up points that get them banned for 90days. It is also not an additional location for a whore to place an AD.

If you would like to see the violations, I have gone into the SNATCH thread and posted "violation" in each post that does not conform. There look to be about 30 correct posts and 24 violations.

I hope that was helpful.........you get the forum you deserve. Originally Posted by dearhunter

As for the rules, those should have been posted by a mod after it was opened by the OP. It wasn't until much later that one of the more astute providers pointed it out.
Since a primary source of income would be at stake for getting banned, I'm pretty sure the providers/managers would pay more attention to what's required to post in SNATCH. When you're talking losing $$ people tend to pay attention. And if not, fuck 'em.
Plus adding value to a thread elsewhere on the board and having a well crafted sig line should give providers plenty of exposure anyways. Although it does make one wonder at times why some have so much time on their hands to post, but that's a topic for another thread.

Cheers!

I've been gone for awhile. Mostly because last time I got on it was nothing but bitching and whining, quite annoying. I think people don't use the forum anymore not because they are hobbying any less but because if you have the phone numbers of the "right people" with the girls then there is no need for this forum anymore. If you have already been verified with them or a regular then coming on here to write a review to get premium access is pointless, you gain nothing from it.

I think this is a great discussion. I know south texas and the valley has dried up. My take is it is for all the reasons combined have killed eccie south texas. The economy sucks very few guys have the $$ to blow. Also the forcing of several of our friends to become an agency
did not help any at all. Then some us like me are just seeing one girl only and thus kills any discussion. I know we used to have fun UTRs parties but them seems years ago. Those that know me will remember our monday night football parties... i miss those lol.
I do not know how we bring it back or if we ever will. All i know is that maybe it was violations what we were doing but it sure was alot better in knowing who we were seeing and it seemed like we had more choices. Now we have to book with an agency. So what are we to do? It is a hobby and i know some of us dont like drama. Maybe the parties would be good to start. Maybe little by little we can get it back...

This forum went south when you appeared on the scene. Track it. It's clear.

You pricks set up the boys who brought us quality pussy because you wanted them gone. Now that is gone and you tell us we get the board we deserve? Fucking hypocrites!!!

I'm basically an outsider to the South Texas board, so take these remarks with a grain of salt.
1) Board participation always seems to slow down during the holidays. Folks are spending time and $s on other activities.
2) The RGV seems to be a VERY small market, despite the broad geographic area. I counted 3 agencies and 4 independents marketing this past week. If I check on Preferred411, I see only 2 indies and 1 agency, and that agency seems to be based out-of-town. I see perhaps a dozen mongers(?) posting in the past week.
3) The RGV & CC, despite being miles apart, are lumped into one forum. They have different issues & politics. We have a similar situation in CO, trying to cover from Pueblo to Ft. Collins (about 200mi on the I-25 corridor, not to mention the Western Slope area.
4) Reading past posts (trying to catch the local flavor) there did seem to be some ugly drama. Even with the changes, I'm not certain that's finished yet. Some of the players appear to still have a burr under their saddles.

Just a few thoughts. Willing to be corrected if I've misinterpreted something.

rj, I don't care one way or the other whether you finally get it. What you won't get is your way anymore.

Scream against the machine. The machine rolls on. Learn to function within the guidelines or don't.

I don't give a shit that you don't like it. Those that wish to be informed as to why something like the loss of your SNATCH thread happened will learn. Your schilling for your cronies is just sweet summer rain.

Several years ago we had a fairly active board down here, considering the number of people involved. For the most part we didn't have a lot of drama, and folks mostly posted fun or interesting things. The mods had a pretty easy time policing this area.

Probably half the girls that we saw were utr types of one sort or another, and most were brought in by one of us. Lots of sharing went on , and we all enjoyed the benefits.

That's my take on why we are slow. What can be done to help? I think not taking any of this too seriously is a good start. Have some fun, talk some shit, tell a joke. Make fun of someone and get everyone laughing.

For the girls this is a business, but for us fellas it's a hobby and should be fun. Would you go golfing or fishing if you had to deal with drama every time you went ?

If you want this to be a fun and lively board, then you need to post. Post a review, post in the co ed, mens lounge or whatever, but if you don't post this place dries up. Originally Posted by Mr. Smith111

Everyone agreeing with each would be boring, however, adults should be able to disagree with each other without hurling insults.

Hey, lets have lunch at the P and get some dances or something.
You can't expect to start all of this, alienate everyone and then just be one of the boys again.
I am moving forward, just forward with a serious dislike for you.

Limit the discussion to the topic at hand! Providers and our successes/failures with them! Tell us who's hot and who's not! Enough of the "grammar rules" enforcers and the Roberts rules of order enforcers, the cynics, critics and fight pickers ( some of you sound like little girls fighting with words on these threads)-- let it go and let's get back to the task at hand.... GIRLS!!!! I like the previous analogy of this site should be like a round of golf, however, many of the conversations I've read, Men would NEVER hang out with whiners like that ! Let's all man-up and behave like REAL men , not women at the coffee table !!
