How Well is the Hobby (this site working in kC?

I know that’s insane down in Texas! However I’ve been noticing a slow decline in messages. Maybe it’s just cause some of you message my sweet Susanna 8@gmail.com instead of here. I just remember opening up the site even a year ago and I would have at least two or three messages from possible clients. If nobody comes hereTo reach out to providers they’re interested in then there’s not really any point in being here. Maybe they come here and look at references even though I don’t think they can and they have to go somewhere else I don’t know it’s all gotten complicated and it’s stressing me out and lotta made me long the old times
I’ve lost touch with some amazing regulars that I looked forward to seeing. They had to move on for various reasons. I just feel like I am doing all I can tell if there’s more I can do here then somebody tell me please
Longing for the old days is an understatement! I got into the hobby about 7 years ago and that seemed like the golden age of KC hobbying. Never had an issue finding a provider to meet up with on a whim. Now it feels like it can be really tough finding providers and seems so much harder now days. Eccie was always my go to and then they cracked down and it’s never really been the same. Also, it’s crazy how much appointments are these days. I guess smaller supply makes for premium prices. I’d have to agree that a lot has changed and I too miss the past days of the KC hobby

Thank you Dee.
And yes, Dee's spot on regarding regulars. And for myself, it's become rare I ask for a date outside the dancecard.

I agree as far as regulars go. Find a couple dependable regulars and get away from all the drama. I think a lot of people don't mess with ECCIE anymore because of all the arguing, name calling, jealousy, etc. that goes on here. The BS has gotten too old.

I do have a few regulars it’s just not regular enough. My question was really more about the dust board in particular and other boards and how well just the Hobby in general is doing. I assume Covid it went way down and I wonder if it’s come back up all the way. There might be a way to find statistics
I have had a hell of a time even finding one person for my dance card. I have “interviewed” 5 and chatted with many many more, but like someone said the BS is really bad. I’ve been lied to countless times, up sold, etc.
