It seems like the board is slowly dying.. Where is EVERYONE?!?

I keep hanging on...look everyday for fun post on the board

there are still some good fun post...just gotta look around

The board is aging and showing it. There is very little new blood on either side of the ledger. Originally Posted by Raindog115

Guess I need to try Twitter.

I been around since the board before eccie and elves started. Lost old handle with divorce prep. Stopped doing reviews 5 yrs ago when attacked. Recent 3 years seen 2 utr/sugerbabes for my weekly stiff meeting. When I have asked to see a girl from LL or DR get the same problem of references. Easier to either find a new Sb or one of old friends.

Im in Florida, moved my mama down here with me from up north to take care of her (not easy)
But I want to get my old apt on St Charles back come 2020 !!
Florida is for old folks and Im bored here and ready to rock.
for me providing is exciting and gives me NSA fun and coach bags lol

Hiya miss CC

It will come back...give it time! I am sure of it!

I've never been one to post a bunch. As far as partaking in the hobby I have trouble lining up time, money and a provider I want to see.

Edit: I see twitter mentioned a lot. Any specific tags I should look for in BR?

Its not eccie, its nola. Providers are dwindling and constantly moving to texas. Majority of provider ads are from traveling providers that are here for 1 weekend and get booked out instantly because of it while local providers are in the minority. Just from what i noticed. Im a lurker and not heavily involved in the community, but i still do see alot of whats going on around here.

As someone who never got to be a part of the eccie community (at least for NOLA/BR), I really am not sure what I think about everything that has been said. After all, any statement about the current state will not consider what it used to be like in the "hey day" which everyone on here has already mentioned. But as a newer user who tends to not be on here that much, I think I may have a unique perspective (I hope).


I think that one of the main reasons is simply due to the way in which the nature of what eccie centers around is being dealt with by society. We can obviously see this within national legislation as well as it pertains to more local aspects such as the busts and raids (like in EBR and LP recently). As such, this creates an environment where for many hobbyist/potential clients, the risk-benefit analysis really isn't where it needs to be to where they are interested in taking part in this community. I really can't blame them though, the developments really make it where one has to be reluctant simply due to all the BS that is happening. Thus on that side, the primary value of eccie is lowered to where it doesn't make sense which in turn impacts the quality of discussions (due to less perspectives).


I personally can not speak from the side of the providers (since I am not one), but I think this also impacts them as well. That is since the very real fear of what may happen as seen within such events and lack of other avenues perhaps makes it to where it is less of a viable option vs. the past. Although I am not certain of this and I would like to see what providers think about that. Regardless, I think this makes it where potential women are less likely to want to be providers due to risk-rewards.


Additionally, I wonder how much of this stems from forums being a dying format due to the emergence of twitter, facebook, snapchat, and so on.


Regardless, I do think that the deteriorating nature of the forums really is a bad thing for everyone involved. Most obviously it is negative to providers and clients, but I think it is really bad from the perspective of someone who loves decent conversations. After all, there are less unique voices on eccie who can provide their own special input in the wide variety of topics discussed.


Anyway, I am interested to see what others think about what I have to say. Originally Posted by LoveTheGoddess

However its a done deal. Just like i did 6 months ago when they said agencies could no longer advertise here the indies will soon follow and not bother. I mean kid yourselves all ya want guys that the women just really adore being around yall but im sure youll see reality set in....
If they arent able to advertise...they cant make anything. Therefore they will move on to GREENER pastures.
Meh...
I worked pre computer and pre cellphones. Cc's will be fine.. j.s
