I see what you're saying, but I disagree. Let me try to explain it a different way.
Let's compare BP and Eccie. All hobbyists know BP is wrought with deceit and shadiness. A guy should NEVER believe what he reads in ads and sees in profile pics. That site epitomizes "buyer beware". However, if a guy chooses to see a lady from BP, he knows to take extra precautions. TOFTT is only cool if you find a gem in the rough--which does happen on occasion, no doubt. This doesn't change the fact that men take lots of extra precautions to protect themselves with ladies from BP because the woman is probably pimped or managed, she has no history of previous encounters readily available unless someone posts something about her here, and you just have to assume she's high volume and might not be totally clean. This mindset is the best way to protect yourself during a BP encounter.
Eccie, on the other hand, is supposed to be better than BP. The perception about this site is people here are a bit more "elevated" compared to all the BP craziness. There is a review system that reveals provider service history, screening of potential clients for providers, and lots of back-channel information via PMs, the provider powder room, and men's locker room. This structure allows a hobbyist to conclude there is a higher likelihood of safe behavior here compared to BP. The mindset here is different in a good way. The perception is Eccie is better and safer than BP based on user activities and the way everyone here ridicules BP.
But you know what? In my 2 years of hobby activities, I have never seen a BP ad promote BB or unsafe behavior. I have never read an Eccie review or carried on a PM conversation with a fellow hobbyist that surfaced any dangerous sexual behavior with a BP lady. Yet, this site allows someone to advertise reckless behavior. Again, I thought this site stood for activities that are above the shadiness on BP. The distinction between the two sites is getting blurred and very disappointing. Originally Posted by austinwebdev2010

Another food for thought - I think that success stories of BP aren't talked about much because the horror stories are just more entertaining . Originally Posted by nerdyAyna

I am completely against BBFS in this community, even more so BB anal, but if there is truth in advertizing and I can screen out those who do partake frequently then that is a positive in a dangerous world.

And I think you may not be aware of numerous BP success stories documented in Eccie reviews. There are quite a few reviews with titles such as "great bp find..", "bp diamond in the rough...", "great time with bp....", and so on. Trust me, if a bp lady is good, she will have a track record here--and she may not even be aware of it. Also, bp ladies who become quality providers make the jump to eccie for reasons I listed earlier. They see it as a move up to better clientele and tight community (esp. the provider screening process for safety). I personally know four bp ladies who took this path.

That did happen on TER a few years back, and there was at least one mod in on it. It happened on ASPD as well. No reason to believe that as long as this business exists and as long as there are reviews it will be asked for, and some jerks will pressure for it even if a lady refuses.
I know it comes as a shock, but not every post nor every review is 100% accurate.
