(1) Reviews?
or
(2) The posts of Board Members who have thousands of posts, but not one single Review to their credit?
Keep in mind that many of those members with thousands of posts and no/few reviews are old school guys who came over from other boards like ASPD, horndogs, or even eRAPS where they had dozens and dozens of them.I used to lurk on ASPD and then horndogs after aspd got shut down.
They choose for whatever reason to no longer write reviews, that does not make them or their experience/insight less valuable than a new member who writes reviews but really knows next to nothing about the hobby yet.
I was the opposite, I lurked for years and years on ASPD, horndogs, and Eccie before deciding to be active. Not a single post or review on any p4p site, does that make me a newbie when I began to post? Hardly.
My point is that someone's number of reviews/posts tells you nothing about them, what they know, or the "value" of their contributions. Originally Posted by SpiceItUp

H2 or O
News Flash Stinky, you need both H2 and O for water and you need both reviewers and paying members for a successful board.
Now folks that get discounted pussy for their reviews and do not pay memberships of course would think their service to the boards more valuable but the fact remains that , that alone would not pay the bills. Thus no board without paying members. I have tried to explain this to you Stinky.

Have you ever heard of Advertising Revenue? I suspect that members paying their $35 per month is a very small component of the site's total revenue. Originally Posted by StinkyFingers

Someone who's been around forever could look at your join date and think you're new to the hobby or maybe even that you don't know what you're talking about since you joined Eccie in 2014...they'd be wrong.
I've actually been somewhat in this game since i was 19, just never made reviews till now. First time was at Studio 5806. Which by some miracle is still standing and in operation and next door to the anti prostitution orginization no less ( which it self is operating out a former house of sin) I remember the days to the "Stress Clinics" that appeared throughout the city or "lingerie modeling" places. You could also find a variety of girls in these places. young, milf, white, black, asian, latina. They use to be a bit more upfront about what they were doing. Originally Posted by cr76

a seasoned vet of the board posts a good review of a new lady, has more street cred.
reviews to me are to verify she is on the up and up... unless she has more NO reviews than Yes.
details in the review I am mixed about.. if the lady has a set list of things she does or does not do then the only variations you will see is if the client partakes or not of all her menu.
details sorta take the mystery out of it.. Originally Posted by Mr. GPop
