I am very grateful to the gentlemen who have appreciated my ads on ECCIE and who have visited me, but I have a more limited appeal than many of the providers here. I have to admit that the Backpage has been my primary source of income, especially from fellows who view some of the, um, well, trash on there, and then read my humorous and entertaining advertisements and see photos that have always been in good taste. I attract many gents who are not previously aware of escort boards like ECCIE, and I introduce them to the hobby.
However, now BP has so bowed to the mounting pressure against paid mounting that I can't even be funny on there. I was running an edited-for-public-morals BP version of my "Toys for Tarts" ad here on ECCIE, but went to it today to make a few changes and while the post was still up, it has been so censored it makes little sense to the reader anymore, and since it supposedly violated the terms of usage, I'm evidently not allowed to edit it. (I tried and that function was blocked on that ad only. Strangely, I still have others up almost as risque but yet unobjectionable?)
Evidently the phrases "candy cane," "stocking stuffing," "jingling bells," "merry mistletoe kissing," along with references to Christmas trees and balls, lap sitting and Santa, are no longer allowed in an escort's Christmas post on Backpage. How the heck am I supposed to get around THAT during the holiday season?
I know, I know, I'm just witching to the wind, but I'm creatively frustrated. Dang, and I had a cute "Let me touch your junk" ad all ready to post, but I bet they won't let me get away with that, either.
