I wish I could give it a break, CFH. I really do. "All I need to say", (SP's quote) is exactly what I said at the top of this thread. Then Kitty comes along and prattles on about me being an ass, the "ladies" and the "facts". The mods, in spite of their falsely rumored "affiliation" with me, are leaving up provably false posts (that I did time for armed robbery) and an unfounded but highly questionable post (about me being a serial rapist) and basically leaving me to twist in the wind.
I have offered to let the mods talk to all the WF girls, in person or on the phone, to see how they're treated, but gotten no reply. I'm asking for any proof from any of my detractors, and have gotten none. I've offered to prove them false, and have no takers. The mods won't even close the threads started with proven lies.
I appreciate your advice about giving it a break, and I would love nothing more than to get back to my usual raping and robbing, or whatever it is that I really do with my time. But let me ask you this, respectfully and sincerely - what would you do if you were in my shoes? Just let it slide? Quit? Run away and hide? Let 10,000 people read the most slanderous lies about you and not say anything? Shut down the agency and throw the girls to the tender mercies of my enemies? Or just maybe call bullshit when it's posted, like kitty's misinformed diatribe, because thousands of people are reading this shit, and nobody's standing up for the truth? Let me know. Thanks.

Who gives a fuck about Kitty??? NO ONE!! I don't know who kitty is. I do great and not so great reviews here. I'm known by the community. I make intelligent posts. Why does "Kitty" concern you enough to go off??
I have for the most part, stayed out of this drama, because it doesn't concern me, or the way I handle my business here. I enjoy the boards as a way to see who it is I might like to meet. As such, I have followed the advice of many new friends here, and had the time of my life!!
Every time you post these days, after all that has happened, i.e. the accusations, the hacking, etc, etc. ... you
continue to post. You continue to defend. Not only that, you most often, while defending, take a sarcastic and degrading tone about yourself, as in,......
and I would love nothing more than to get back to my usual raping and robbing, or whatever it is that I really do with my time........Whether you realize it or not, it causes all those who are your detractors to justify everything they think and say about you. You really should think a bit more about your choice of words in your posts. Words are STRONG messages about yourself, about who you present yourself as, and about who you perceive yourself to be. You really should do your best to put yourself in the best light, but instead, you take a sarcastic tone in almost every thread, and tell everyone that you are the "bad man" that they all perceive you to be.
That is a big red flag to many. Not to me. I frankly could care less about all of this business. I am an intelligent, educated male of 47 years, and although I just started in the hobby a year ago, I did my research, and I have only been with indy providers of the highest caliber, for the most part. I would never go through a service, frankly because I don't need to. Why pay so much more when I could drive to see Rosie Daie, or a miriad of amazing providers, who love to see me?
I wish you the best of luck in your endeavors. The only reason I'm addressing you one on one is because you addressed me as such, but let it be known that I know nothing about you and your business, or your misgivings. In addition, I will never do business with a service as I have no need to do so. I handle my business on my own, and do so quite well.
I hope things work out for you, but I would recommend, just as a personal observation, that you just continue on with business as usual, and stop violently defending yourself. It seems to be doing more damage than good.
Best of luck and fortune to you.
