What “gets under my skin”. ( doesn’t really but I’m distracting myself from my actual assignment right now) is that you have no other ammunition against me so you keep bringing up this other person with which you also seem to have an obsession with.

Obsessed much??

Anywho….

As I was saying, I’ve tried to start many threads to encourage provider engagement but ….

I think this is evidence why they don’t participate. Originally Posted by Dreamgurrl

But we can still get back on topic. Again, thank you for your participation and viewpoint.

Almost 50% of the threads DG has started have been in the Sandbox. There were some that were provider focused.

Idk if there's still a powder room but that seems to me to be representative of an intent to inject some provider participation in the Sandbox and not much I can see in the way of politics. There's some.

So, yeah, I'll consider her point valid and I accept what she's saying she's heard from others.

Were they promoting Eccie as she suggests? She hasn’t mentioned providers being turned of because of political threads. Is so, repost it. I must have missed it.

Anyway back on topic. Too political? Nope not at all. It's called a freedom of choice. If u dont like it, dont read it. Want to post about something else? Great. The stump as I call it doesnt drive away the ladies, not being able to place ads and the type of reviews are pretty much what I think keeps the participation down. I'm not a lady so maybe DG can offer a better insight. The only thing I can say about the political threads are, it would be nice if the wouldnt get so hostile all the time. I've been guilty of flying off the handle sometimes and I guess it's to be expected now and then. Anymore I just try to remember it's highly unlikely that anyone is going to change their mind by what they read anyway lol

The main reason I have always felt Providers have stayed out of threads like these, other than to cause DRAMA, is because we are discussing "REAL LIFE" topics.

Providers do not deal in real life, they deal in fantasy, and, very little if any of their real lives ever show up in the business that they profit from.

In fact, its that profit that is their ONLY concern, hence, my long held and PROVEN belief that we exist in two seperate worlds, that only overlap in one capacity, and that is, to buy what we want, and they provide it or not, beyond that, unless you are clueless WK, or one of those "I'm gonna save a hooker" fools there is almost no real life at all involved.

So, when they do show up, its usually about a rant about us no good conservatives that have the cash to buy what we want, and lecturing us about the need for government birth control, abortions, medical and day care, and the need for all be free, when, its already a business expense they can write off.

Time has shown me, there are FEW liberals in this hobby, at least on our side, you have to have one, the cash, two, be an Alpha at least in part, three, be willing to overlook marriage vows, and four, usually be in some sort of business that demands time out for fun.

Lib SoiBoys, one, don't want to work, don't want to pony up the cash, don't feel they are owed sex when they want, Incels come to mind, and are the types who bend over backwards to please their dominant, demanding feminist, and usually un-attractive wives.

I mean, just look at the anchors on CNN and MSNBC compared to the babes on Fox, there is a reason, reasonS, why, each of those networks has the people they do, mainly because its a direct reflection of those watching it.

I mean, just take "The View" for example, some of the ugliest, meanest witches you could ever find to put into one place, Whoopi Goldturd, and Joyless Reid, for gods sakes, I don't know if they have children, but, if they do, I gotta see the CHUD that stuck it in them, I'm still betting Chelsea C, had to bag up, use her mouth, and spit it into a turkey baster, I mean, come on, could you, REALLY, ever do that?

Added stuff.

You joined this site in 2019. Bam has been here since 2010, I have been here since 2012, AG has been here since 2013, Chizzy has been here since 2010 Devo, since 2009, and once a mod, thank you.. I won't speak for them but I will say we know a hell of a lot more of the history of ECCIE in Pittsburgh than you do.

The fact is 99% of hookers rarely participated here. Had zero to do with any off topic threads. Rather they didn't like that this site was hobbyist oriented so they stuck to Indys which was provider oriented No, Indys was far beyond provider oriented, they actively shilled for the providers, and uses Admin powers to leak info from Hobbyists, and allowed providers to share private information about their customers.. Once someone ran Indys into the ground, very few ever came over here. Because they feared having the truth be told about them.

But they left when Eccie removed their ability to post ads.

So there is no drag on any culture. Actually for as piss poor as the hobby environment is in Pittsburgh these days, this board is still quite active and thriving. This forum gets a lot of clicks. It is the hobby itself that is not thriving for a variety of reasons. But none of those reasons have anything to do with what people discuss in off topic threads.

People are going to talk about what they are interested in. If you don't like that, that is your problem, not everyone elses.

Here, here!!

Again, purely your opinion and speculation on your part with the negative adjectives you use. Now, Mr Gristle, although we disagreed on many things, I thought you at least were intelligent. But in my OPINION, you seem to be bitter, or angry, about absolutely nothing. I haven’t checked, but most replies here don’t agree with you. But, by all means, carry on.

Can you respond to my Toilet Paper thread? I’m just trying to keep things “balanced”!!!!
