Does one's board persona have an impact on your decision to see someone or put you off from seeing them?


Guys- Do you get put off by providers that are constantly creating drama on the boards/attention whores etc..To the point that you wouldn't even consider booking them? Originally Posted by Valerie

Valerie, it makes a HUGE difference for me in deciding who I'll see. I want to chime in a bit, because the whole concept of a "board persona" strikes me as something of a red herring. To continue using the Wakeup "persona" as our example, it's amazing how many of the inner circle have posted something along the lines of, "You know, in real life, he's really a nice guy." He probably is, I wouldn't know. But I wonder about people that have a need to make this board, or any other, some kind of alternative outlet for expression of emotions and attitudes that they don't have in their everyday lives. And people shouldn't get a pass for being assholes because it's "only a SHMB persona". I actually hope I get to meet the real Wakeup one day, I'm pretty sure it'd be fascinating. I really don't want to turn this thread into a blast Wakeup thread, but since you brought him up and he's close to home, I thought I'd continue with that example.

As for providers... I hobby because I like my sex to be adventurous, drama-free, and on my schedule. Anything a provider, "persona" or otherwise, posts that leads me to believe those three conditions aren't going to be met, is usually crossed off the list.

Hope this was helpful, and best wishes with the hormonal stuff.

I wouldn't see a lot of guys due to how they act on the board even though i know everyone (men&women) that always stir up things are all talk behind the monitor. When in person they wouldn't dare say any of the things they will say behind a monitor. Lol those guys and gal(lol) entertain me

Have no fear, it's there, because it's who I am.

Wix is the new Rare Escorts! (Hopefully more stable and efficient. Definitely better technology. Built my site on Wix, too.) I like your new website, Valerie. The opening photo is killer! You're so blond you'd blend in during a blizzard. We'd have to find you by looking for those long, dark eyelashes sticking up out of the snow.

What would you want in the flask carried by the rescue St. Bernard? (I have my preferences for warm liquid.)

I think I'll take some warm Grand Marnier in that flask

WU, let me clarify, because I wasn't implying you DO get a pass. It'd be pretty hard to say on this board who does or does not get a pass because discipline is so UTR. So let me say this. I don't know if you're an asshole or not. I know from your posts that you CAN be, but I know I can be too, so I'm ok with that. 80% of the time, you're simply funny as hell. There's a 20% mean streak that I don't care for. As an example, you're "everybody dies" comment in BW's sick mother thread. That wasn't funny or appropriate. All that said, the line between funny and mean can be a pretty damn thin one, and I often find myself in the same position in the real world, so I get it.

I don't know if online WU is the same as the real world WU, you'd definitely know that better than me. Enough people have said it that it's kinda acquired a truth on its own, I suppose. And I get the whole "confronted by idiocy" thing, and it being more prevalent on this board.

I laugh at you when you're funny, and I'm not scared to call you out when you're acting like a dick. I hope you'd do the same for me. Friends?

Well generally I'm a bitch and my board personality reflected that. I've been told I have no filter meaning I don't when the things I'm going to say are inappropriate. Most everyone who knows me usually ignore what I have to say or take it with a grain of salt. But, I've learned to be sweet on the board and ignore post that irritate me & to definitely watch, but stay out of the drama LOL!

I wouldn't turn down a guy because of what he post online he is well entitled to his own opinion, but I do read the post of gents who PM me and recently turned down a guy because of his posting style he is negative with a capital N about everything and actually had a staff edited racial slur .... Can you pass?? On top of that he was an arrogant ass that refused to do his research.
