Isn't posting something like, "Hey Little Rock, any interest?" an ad from a provider? These seem to always pop up in the Requests and ISO and not in the Provider ads thread.
The requests and ISO is where the guys who don't know the area ask for tips or desperately post the "hey babe, come get me" statements.
I really don't care but if we are sticklers....

Requests and ISO's is the proper place to ask if there is any interest
before a provider decides to run an ad – an ad stating that she is
definitely coming to visit. The Request-ISO merely helps her gauge the interest level before making a firm decision that she has to commit to.
At least, that's the way I look at it! And I think most other providers would agree.
Starting a thread in Coed that states "Hey <insert city here>, we're coming to your city, what should we pack – where should we stay – what's there to eat?" is definitely a provider ad. Legitimately asking where there are good places to stay or eat might be passable in Requests and ISO, even… But definitely not in Coed!
