Provider website recommendations

I just moved to St. Louis from KC. ECCIE kinda sucks here. It seems like there is not a great variety of providers with reviews. Does anyone have any recommendations. St. Louis sports enthusiast doesn't have many providers either.

I'd say that's the most active, and has the most providers active there, of the two local boards. I do think that their "basic member" review section is pretty much worthless, and I don't see myself shelling out a Benjamin every year to be a real member there since I don't live there (it's just not worth it); I may (but probably won't) buy a monthly membership when I know I'm coming up to STL and will definitely have time and wherewithal to play.

The other local board is STLHOBBY (http://www.stlhobby.com/), which has (in my estimate; don't take this as gospel) a few fewer providers. Of course, there's a bit of overlap between the two boards in both the provider membership and the hobbyist membership. I'm a member of both, and if I lived in STL I'd continue to be a member of both, though if I were living there I might be more willing to buy a "real" membership there. (As it is, I get contrarian and flaunt my second-class citizenship there when the opportunity arises. )

I don't count it as a local board, but USASexGuide's (http://www.usasexguide.info/) STL forums were pretty active when I had my eyes on them (I'm still a bit busy in Real Life(TM), so I'm not watching USASG as much as I used to).

I think you're suffering from "Texas syndrome"; it's not that ECCIE sucks in STL but rather that ECCIE is unusually active in KC, and STL suffers by comparison. That's just the way things are, alas. You can try to stir things up a bit here if you feel so inclined. Good luck!

As far as finding providers go to p411 or ecom. There are many girls on ecom that are not on either board. There are also a few ladies on eros. But as far as boards go IMHO there aren't any that are that active in the Lou. Just my 2 cents.

What is ecom? Nothing came up in google.

escorts dot com

ditto with above---
grainbeltnews is so-so

stlhobby is great

Re: escorts.com, you've probably seen the news stories about how the PA State Police and FBI (IIRC) raided the parent company, and apparently confiscated the computers hosting escorts.com and a number of related sites (mostly pr0n sites) for a while.

There's a rather "enthusiastic" debate going on in some forums (here and elsewhere) to what extent LEO may be running escorts.com, and mining the information there with the intent to bust more hobbyists and providers. I'm not losing sleep over my own information there (but I've not been active on e.com for quite some time), but there are times when paranoia makes sense, and this may be one of them.

FWIW, my approach to e.com is that I'd use it as a source to get a feel for what ladies might be available in an area (if I'm traveling out of my local area to somewhere other than STL (where I already feel I have a good handle on who's available that I might want to see)), but I'd thoroughly vet any leads I've mined from escorts.com to make sure they're legit ladies who are well reviewed elsewhere (in that context, my life memberships in both Date-Check and P411 are good resources too).

And just in case LEO is running escorts.com, I wouldn't use the messaging there to contact a lady (not an issue for me anyway, since you have to have a paid membership to use the messaging there, and I'm too cheap to pony up for a VIP membership ).
