What is it about this area?

Thanks for bring this issue up. Myself being fairly new to the hobby, wanted to make a comment on the fact you have so tactfully brought up. But I decided it was best left to someone who could express themselves more eloquently than I. I do express frustration in the fact that my questions I have ask of the board have often gone unanswered. (Not just this area) while my unseasoned questions might seem trivial to some. I look at these boards for valuable info and to make sure I pass on any info I discover in my experiences as well. We all dabble in a sometimes dangerous and risky hobby and need to remember that and look out for each other. So get to it��

I too have had less luck with gaining Intel on the Joplin/Spg. board like I have in other areas. I wonder if part of the issue is that there seems to be fewer LE busts here than in other comparably sized metro areas so ladies feel safer about being on BP. It seems more providers gravitate to ECCIE and other sites like it when they do not feel safe about advertising elsewhere. I also believe that there may be fewer ladies actually doing this as a profession here as opposed to a part time gig. It takes time and effort to check the board regularly, post in the Co-Ed section frequently, banter back and forth with the hobbyists and build a solid reputation. Sure would love to see more of it here though. This is not my home board but it is closer than LR for me so I do dabble here. I will try to add value when I can.
