Many folks think ownership changed hands in the past year. If that’s true, I don’t give ownership any credit for knowing what they’re doing, since past experience doesn’t apply.

The Providers are going to take a big hit on the cash flow in the next few weeks or months. They might have to dig those hush puppies out of the closet.

Tricks are often too dumb to really notice when a situation favors them. When they do notice, they inevitably fuck it up anyway.

NOT just in Dallas or even Texas but, every city in every state that is on Eccie. Massive requests to disable their account across the board. That many people is not just panic. Must be the loss of advertising, showcases, etc... It will take a few months for 500,000 to leave. Mods will be working overtime.

Eccie has a big decision to make. They don't want to lose their 506,031 member clientele, that took 10 years to create. At the same time, they don't want to go to jail. I really don't think the FEDS are after the providers or the clients, they want the BIG fish. The owners/operators. When backpage was seized, they went after one or 2 guy's, the owners/operators. Craigslist shut down voluntarily after warnings and they went after no one. Craigslist shuts down its personals section only. Eros went dark for awhile and they went after no one there either.FEDS haven't made a sound yet and this site is already a shell of it's former self. Hundreds have disabled their account. MANY are waiting for the other shoe to drop. Do we even know who the new owners are? I bet the FEDS know, they just follow the money. Can they still go after the previous owners? you betcha. They already have a record of that since they been in court already when that other idiot tried to copy thousands of posts and threads from this site. There are still copies of what used to be here on the internet. Do the FEDS care? I don't think so. They only care what is now, after the NEW laws went into effect.
There is no need to delete your account. They are not after us. They want the owners/operators. Eccie might be thinking: do we really need to shut down the entire site? or maybe just certain areas like showcases, etc... I am sure they are in meetings at this very moment, deciding which way to go on this. Once they lose a BIG clientele base, and people scatter, eccie will never get it back. It is estimated that Eccie is worth 500,000 per year. MANY MANY MANY ASPD members came here to get this site started.
