I am new here to ECCIE. I am glad to be here, however, I don't think TOB is a bunch of jumble, but of course I am biased to TOB being that it IS my home board and it IS where I started out. With all due respect, I can see one thing that's MUCH better about TOBs review system (and let's face it, a board is only as good as it's review system). That thing would be that when a lady gets reviews, they all stay grouped together. From what I can see (and of course maybe I am wrong) when a lady gets reviews here, it is just mixed in with all of the other reviews and not directly linked the rest of her reviews. You can not EASILY see her past track record. That is inconvenient for the client and provider alike. Making it MUCH harder to research any particular lady, and from the ladies POV, making it much harder to keep track of all of her reviews. One thing that is better about this board is the separation of 411s. I like that idea and believe it helps to keep the clutter down in the main discussion area. All in all, each board has its pros and its cons. But in the long run, as chica chaser stated, it's best to not keep all of your eggs in one basket.
Also, getting NATIONAL attention is nice, but I believe that some of the value of a close net community (like TOB has) is lost on such a BIG board. TOB has a "Cheers" feel to it. Where everybody knows your name. When I come here (and granted I am fairly new with limited experience with this board) I feel like I am in the Mall of America and I might not see anybody here that I know.
These are just my perspectives. I am not bashing this board. Like I said I am very happy to be here and I look forward to exploring my options. Oh, and I added to my ad that I would like to receive reviews here also.
