Why is BP so Compelling?

Baseplate's Avatar
I know there are a lot of comrades out there that have been burned on BP more than they want to admit and still we just can't keep from looking there first. Ad after ad of TGTBT but ever so compelling. I do it time and time again.

Anyone know why???

Third, as you said, they are TGTBT... meaning many of the pics are of extremely hot women, even if those aren't the women that would be opening the door. Final reason would be bargain shoppers. Backpage should re-name the escorts board the blue light special board.

I really don't get it either.
It is where the pimps put out ads for girls, and also looks like LE ads. Blue light special? I am not so sure about that. Most of the ads command high $$ because they have to give the pimp a cut. Yeah, some have deals though. It is hit or miss. I met Miss Angel off there, but she has disappeared...and she was so hard to hook up with again, even though I tried for weeks! So someone must have been keeping her busy.
like the other person said, the "diamond in the rough" type. You never know who you'll find. There's an excitement factor about it. For me.

I think the ultimate rush is being all alone and tired past 10pm at night and taking your chances on one for a quick little session. That's the shit I really appreciate that normal eccie posting providers don't do.

I've ran into a quality late night CBJ I called at midnight and we set up for 1am. If she has real pics, a review or two, and is on BP she's more than likely game for a late night creep.

That's just how I like it. Some of these providers have jobs in the morning. Another one shuts down at 9pm asking me to call at around 6pm to set something up. 6pm I don't know how horny I'll be later on in the night. The sun is still out.
BP's allure is a risk/reward calculation. Like any product, consumers (hobbyist) have different needs and wants. Some hobbyist are all about price, price, $s. Some are location dependent, others service sensitive, others convenience or variety.

BP is the most accessible option for part-time hobbyist. Screening is minimal at times. Just accept that the pixs are TGTBT. Buyer Beware!
Yeah, like everyone says you are looking for the diamond in the rough. I have found several diamonds on BP over the years. There are bait and switch type situatons and the situations with LE on BP as well. But, some of the women on there are new and don't really know about sites like this one. ....I realize then they are legit and I teach them about the hobby and spend quality time with them. Then later they blow up and charge higher rates......lol

Hi there!

Some of you know me cuz I had about 2000 posts on aspd & have a bit of rep for being a wildKAT. I was very happy to get off CL back in July 06 when I got my provider status. It bothered me that the same site with categories such as games, toys, bicycles, etc... had adult services listings that were easily accessed. For this reason, I didn't even know about BP till about a year ago. The new had worn off of Kat *awwww, say it isn't so!!* and although my loyal clientele kept me above water, it's always important to maintain a steady flow of new stock to keep my fetish for sex w/ strangers alive & kicking. *ahem*

Last summer was my first to tour and I found that BP was helping my call volume. I probably had about 60/40 ratio of calls from aspd/BP respectively. My website reported almost 4x the average number of hits usually received from my homebase in Austin on the day I posted my Houston ad. I didn't use BP again until Nov 09 which included new pics taken by a local w/ a very artistic eye. I had 3x more calls that week than any week the previous month which was quite welcome w/ the holidays around the corner. Yeah... That's it. Wasn't excited about the volume having a chance at whittling down my excessively horny nature. Of course not! >

I do agree that the TGTBT factor is annoying as well as the number of gunshy newbs due to the bad apples they've run across in their experiences. Fortunately, a few seasoned ladies like myself continue to do our part in "training" the new guys to assist in their future hobby endeavors.

Although not mentioned in this thread yet, I'm sure all of you see regular advertisers from eccie & other local boards who've posted ads that are sometimes the same but also those who use different handles & rates on the public sites. I did a test using a similar but different handle & email addy w/ no pics or links to see if it would yield biz & prove worthy of my efforts. It bombed! LOL So, later that year when I did the Nov 09 ad it was even more gratifying to see real results.

Hopefully the newbs out there will catch on & avoid getting T-shirts. There's always legit ads but you have to put blinders on the little head if you're hottie-prone.

Look forward to meeting up w/ old & new friends this week!

Mallory later perished climbing Mount Everest. His body was not discovered until 75 years later, several hundered yards from the summit. It is not known if he reached the summit before his demise.

I'm just sayin'...

One of the biggest draws for me personally is convenience. I will admit I am still young in the hobby but I don’t have the schedule and foresight to be able to plan a day or two in advance. So when I have free time its a luxury that I try to take advantage of and the Wonderful and Beautiful Ladies on here can’t always accommodate a short notice client.
more pics posted, even videos.....slideshows.... bp is a great start.....and free advertising for a provider. i like it.....
Lots of variety.
Lots of new ladies.
Some bargain prices.
Short notice.
The adventure of finding a nice little hottie then comming back here to tell everyone about it.
