* how is it that ECCIE is called ESCORT CLIENT COMMUNITY INFORMATION EXCHANGE... but ladies here are talked to and treated like trash by who ever they want... and it's allowed...
* i have read thru all of the eccie rules and regulations many times now.
* can this really be called a community when people can be bullied and IF they stand up for themselves they get infracted or banned (mostly LADIES)
* so please explain to me where do lady's stand in this hobby... and be aware i will report anyone who decides to troll this post.... to help prove the point.

there are only "ECCIE Forum Guidelines", no rules, no regulations.

".....You will find various other items of policy and procedure which address a variety of topics placed in various forums across the board. Please pay attention to the stickied threads in each of the forums you visit to prepare yourself for the guidelines which may exist for that forum in particular. What you see here are the basic fundamentals. If each of us commits ourselves to abiding by the basic posted guidelines provided, our community will continue to grow and thrive. As the saying goes, you get out of something what you put into it. In that respect, we ask that each individual member, including our staff, to display a common respect for those around you and make yourself aware and familiar with the guidelines set forth for the community.
Thanks in advance,
ECCIE Staff"
my opinion is that on the internet, esp anonymous sites on the internet, people act however they want to act - nice, decent, immature, disrespectful, downright hostile, whatever.
and whether or not you believe they are doing a "good job" at it, the moderators, administrators, and owner(s) are doing what they can and what they feel is the correct/appropriate application of the guidelines.
again my opinion, another aspect of this is how some men treat women in general and sex workers in particular. throughout ages, many men have treated women w/ little respect if not as chattel. look at how Mary Magdalene was treated in the bible. Look at what happened at the Salem Witch Trials. Look at what happened to those school girls kidnapped by Boku Harum (sp). Look at what the so-called Islamic State fighters are doing to women in Syria and Iraq and Turkey. Look at how women are treated in the USA in business, advertising, etc.
when some women become educated, gain power, or gain money (a form of power), some men dont like being upstaged, dont like losing power/money, etc. and then attack women, either specifically or generally.
throw in some anonymity and very lax application of consequences here in eccie, and it's no wonder why some guys act the way they do.
so, in my opinion, to think that people will behave in the most respectful manner here is to ignore history and to not think rationally.
to hope that they will act "nice" is laudable. to educate them about "nice" behavior is also laudable.
i think dallaswill and iaintliein said it best
* "The moral of the story, there are ppl who are rude, whether they know it or not. Don't let them drag you down."
* "It's always been a jungle out there, but the internet allows the claws to reach anywhere, anytime."
but hey we are just stupid hookers

and pls dont paint all the other women on this site w/ that brush.
and i believe it... but at end of the day we are still human beings internet or not, and no human should even speak to or treat people the way they seem to be treated here

if you see something that you think is not in keeping w/ the guidelines, i suggest that you report it to a moderator, admin, and/or owner citing the specific guideline.
or just accept what you read here.
or ignore some of what you read here.
or leave.
your choice.
bottom line, do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
but dont be surprised [upset? yes] if someone does something "wrong".
