and unless this place gets SOOOOO full of negativity or something else happens in my world, i'll probably keep visiting.


Carole King is excellent songwriter, singer, and pianist. last year, she and James Taylor went on tour and produced/sold a CD and DVD - fantastic music, that is, if songs and melodies are your thing.

I should not have to join a spider hole to be frank with my fellows. Originally Posted by StoneTemplePilot

years back, ASPD Houston had a group of members who knew each other off the board and they would talk shit to each other on ASPD and the Houston staff allowed it because some of them were part of that group.

They even created their own web site that was pretty much invite only and there were NO rules at all except to fuck with others and insult anyone and especially those not on the site.

Once people get in that habit of gaining "cred" with a group who do that, of course it spreads to the outside even worse and that fucked up attack attitude spread beyond Houston.

Like many people on a keyboard, those fucktards would try to get a reaction from members in other cities and it worked for them.

ASPD died and that same crowd from the same website moved here and the same bullshit attacks kept going only to get worse.

This is only my opinion, but the mere fact that ECCIE allows a private sub-forum here, the Spider Hole, which is mainly made up of the original people who created the other Houston based site means that ECCIE not only condones that sort of shit but because they are getting money from the forum, they sanction it.

Hard to keep the attacks in that spider hole forum, as hard or harder as it was to keep the YMWV attacks just to that site. What they feel is funny becomes very hurtful to many providers and then the providers friends and especially their white knights get all pissed and it only goes downhill.

The only cure is for the ECCIE owners to step up and have the moderators crack WAY down on that sort of attack. no more pussy footing around when it comes to attacks at even a small level. You do it, heavy points first time, 30 day ban the next. Try it again and 90, next time you go a year.

Let them have their spider hole fun elsewhere. Pretty sure that ECCIE would be 100% better without ANY of the members who are active players in YMWV or the Spider Hole.
My posting style depends upon if I am using my phone to post or using a computer.

Phone: no capitalization, punctuation, or spell-check and you can kiss grammar goodbye!

Computer: posts are proofread, spell-checked, and sometimes it STILL looks like I was drunk-posting, lol.

I spend the majority of my time in the Ladies Only areas and I do like the fun posts in co-ed. If I had more time I would post to all of the silly threads, I am a BIG fan of silly.

If someone posts something that really gets my goat I may join in the negativity as well, just so I can say my piece. Hey at least I am honest!

Great thread OP!
WTF is a spider hole? Keep seeing references but never seen anything out in the open on what it is (I have my ideas). Can anyone enlighten me?

Bizz, search for the Blue Water vendor's posts, Sophia of Houston. She advertised for it in this forum and also in the Sandbox.

The second you start taking this thing too seriously and thinking of everybody here as your community (some will be, but not everybody and not even most), IMO you've made a grievous error. Originally Posted by TheBizz

Hi all,

Aspd for many years and here since probably gives me permission to pipe in ... hope it is worth something to someone.

There...I just said my peace. Try to post what may be worth something to someone. And respect what was said even if you happen not to be that "someone."

More seriously, although I was just very serious. Here goes:

1. Size changes a lot. In the early days of aspd, it was much easier to feel a sense of community and people were more civil. Smaller is definitely different and easier to manage.
2. The hobbiests made more of an effort in their reviews to think about what made sessions unique to help other hobbiests figure out if the lady would be a satisfying experience for them.
3. Banning people doesn't really do much good when they can create a new handle from a new yahoo or gmail account. Then they're back, stir things up, and head back out to sea ... again. I knew a seagull who did that. He only came to the beach to shit and then flew away again.
4) Then there are some who are just like that seagull, except they hang out on the beach and keep on shitting ... ALL THE TIME. Thank goodness, there are not too many of them.
5) Generally, I think there are a lot of decent people mixed in with all the perverts!

My 3 gripes (not in any order) are:

1) Lack of thoughtful reviews relatively to the creative review-writing of the "old days"
2) Exaggerated and non-truthful reviews
3) Guys who are disrespectful to the women on this board

BTW, does anyone know Carol King's handle? She must be on here somewhere ...
