I am going to have to offer a few counter points in addition to agreeing with most of what Toys said, but then at the bottom assert that these "Improvement Lists" are all just a a dream as no money or effort won't be put into improving the board.
Here's what I would like:
- When a hobbyist is writing, he can tag the provider. Similar to the messaging system. That way any pertinent info can be autofilled from the showcase. This would prevent the typos which are currently running rampant.
No sheet I hAte peoples who can't Speel or use good Grandmer.
I agree the same Autocomplete feature in the showcase search could be leveraged, while still leaving the fields editable ie: She lists black but is currently sporting a blonde pixie cut.
- ROS able to be read by the providers, at least their own. Other sites do it and hell hasn't frozen over. It's a great way to brush up on the clients that you see once every 6 months.
IF Hoogars were allowed to read them, this place would run amok I assure you. I would agree to letting them read them if they couldn't respond. Becky Ho-A-Lot has a gaping pussy. {{{becky}}} NO I DON'T! YOU HAVE A LITTLE WEINIE! {{{random monger adding his 2 cents YES! Becky changed her name from Maryanna Trench! That gash is a cavern... It would just cause undo arguing.
I would welcome this change, personally I find it hilarious that we assume that ALL of the INFORMATION to be EXCHANGED here is from the man's side. I would see an adjustment period and a lot of work from the mods editing inappropriate replies. I could see a system where a review it posted, provider is allowed one response to the review (think about what you want to say and say it all at once) From there let the guys chatter and gossip in the private tags we now have.
- Either allow providers to comment on their own reviews or remove their ability to so within the code.
Nope, its for reviewing the girls...not being shouted down when someone has a negative to so. The GOOD PROVIDERS develop such a following that when some douche lies about her the mongers straighten him out. And if someone has an off day, its understood it was an off day. And if she is a BAD provider, she gets what she deserves. Its a pretty honest system as is
A better system wouldn't rely on the popularity of a provider, and would catch more outlier cases. I may be wrong in my thinking, but this forum is designed to allow interaction of all parties. If a girl goes BSC in a review response it will just hurt her business and either learn or leave.
- A defined reviews permalink that is viewable to non members. So anyone can see reviews listed in chronological instead of just random googling.
No. This board is for MEMBERS, its not just a vehicle for girls to advertise. Want to read reviews? Then become an active-or paying-member. I do like chronological views for MEMBERS
I am not sure I understand the request here, but I would prefer that this whole site be tag so that it isn't archived and searched. It should be a mostly private forum for members.
- The option to choose whether you want to have your reviews publicly viewable, (as a provider or a hobbyist.) I'm an exhibitionist, but not everyone is. This might bring out some of the UTR hobbyists as well.
I fully disagree...the reviews are NOT up to the provider. They are up to the customer. A monger shouldn't write a review if he doesn't want it read period. Its an information exchange & mostly that's about what kind of service a provider...provides...that's 95% of this boards purpose. UTR's can pay their fee and not post...lots of worthless lurkers here already that give back nothing to the forums.
I agree that reviews shouldn't be public as that is one of the few sources of income for the site is to be a full member and read the full review.
- A separate forum dedicated exclusively to backpage reviews.
Yes, entitled "Why did you do that"? Cause its mostly comedy reading anyway..."her pictures looked like a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader...but when I got there, she looked like a Dallas Cowboy...
I don't understand the need for the separate indi and agency review forums now, adding a new one seems counter productive. maybe one forum but with a title tag of [BP] [TAE] [SGJ] etc as needed for quick visual filtering.
Anyone else have any serious suggestions or desires?

My suggestion would be instead of a 1-10 change the recommendation to a free form box ( like what we do now when we go back and edit it)
- MANDATORY word count or some kind of substance to allow a review to be posted at all (let alone get credit). Some reviews are like "I showed up, she got undressed, we did it, I left"...hurts girls more than helps them cause I'm thinking "what a waste of time"
A word count before it could be posted might work, or it might be easier to completely delete kurt, false start etc review posts and PM the op to try again.
- A drop down menu to filter the types of girls you want. If you don't kiss, I probably wont see you. If you cover my pecker to suck it, I WON'T see you...give us a way to filter down without having to read Lenny Lamedicks pathetic review to find out what he SAYS you did (not always what you will do)
This sounds like an addition to the showcase search function and not the review system. I support better searching.
- MANDATORY rates & menus on Ads. Seriously, 50% of them that don't list this up front I wont waste my time trying to search out what you are asking. Its a real turn off. I know the girls are trying to get the guys to read reviews & do some research. But...put the menu and rates up front. IF we are intrigued, we will read the reviews to find out more about you anyway
I don't agree, If a provider doesn't want to spew out an acronym salad, or list a rate I think that should be her choice. Some of them have their own website and want the showcase here to be little more than a pointer to that. Having more places to update rates, and other info over time might cause miscommunication and hurt feelings.
- Find a way to make an "Available now" forum that works. Sometimes I will be doing something completely non sexual. Some other hobby maybe. and think "Damn it would be nice to have some titties flopping on my face"...and a lot of Mongers work that way...we can't explain it, it just works that way. So we jump on here or text someone we like to see if they can eradicate this erection in the next couple of hours so we can get back to what we are supposed to be doing
I agree, I am not sure why the Austin folks get so bent out of shape over a short notice thread, trying to control and police post length, content, and frequency.

And finally I assert: This board exists for profit, and until people stop clicking on ads, paying for memberships, etc No money will be invested in Improvements. (why fix anything until it is really broken) However, if the board's profits slip too low It'll probably just get shuttered.
I would gladly volunteer my time and talents to improve the backend and functionality of the site, but said offers have either not been taken seriously or not moved up the chain to an actual decision maker.
