SP's should be posting more here.

[Mr.O]

Excellent post, both in the humor and in the perfect placement of Smilies for the ironically challenged.

The viewpoint that SP`s should not be allowed in the review section (or anywhere on a review board) is not new.
Those who object think that the purity of the board is at risk. I think that without their input, this board would become more infested with shills and trolls than it already is. Allowing SP`s to comment is actually a valuable tool since their reactions to posts helps identify the legit and fake reviews. (Gives the shills and trolls more rope to unwittingly hang themselves.)

The above quote is from Vancouver Escorts in the Review section of this board.
I am posting on this in the Lounge because I am incensed by the comments made in response to a positive review for Totally Touchable Tiffany.

I would like to state that I take offense to any unwarranted attacks like this on any provider, Tiff is used here as an example.

I make no apologies that I am making an issue of it here by posting as it is my conviction that sometimes others need to stand on the soap box & speak up for what they believe is right or in this case WRONG.

The link below is the thread that contains the review of Tiff & the above quote from the 2nd page of it.

https://perb.cc/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=61924

In a review by a happy client who experienced disappointment at first, due to scheduling problems, was then very satisfied after the Fox Den & Tiff made sure to go the extra step to make him happy.

What agitated me was that the review showed great customer service on the part of The Fox Den & Tiff., but some doubtful dissenters had to cry shill & make false claims of the reviewer being paid to provide a positive comment.

I find that utterly ridiculous & uncalled for by those who wrote such negative fantasy.
Tiffany has been positively reviewed here numerous times in the past & I am comfortable in accepting that they were legitimate.

I want to make an IMPORTANT observation here that should not be overlooked or discounted.
In response to the negative comments Tiff maintained a positive attitude & did not make derogatory statements in an effort to "lash back" at the posters.
THAT IS A SIGN OF MATURITY & CLASS!

One comment was that a poster thought the SP`s should not post in the review section, I disagree for the very reason that I have witnessed Duffus Dicksters make inflammatory comments toward an SP that were not justified & thankfully the thread closed as a result of there being no basis for the accusations.
Providers should have the ability to defend against unwarranted accusations & give their thanks to those positive reviews.

SP`s NEED to post on this board & anywhere they wish as it is by doing so that the readers can evaluate the comments made by them & thus develop a sense of whether or not they relate or connect with them.
Many SP`s here are educated & astute in their opinion & I, for one, enjoy reading the various comments from them. Not only those of educated background offer interest but ALL points of view from many of the providers whose comments I have read have been everything from sensible & thought provoking to humorous to the point of pain!

So... to conclude it IS important that the providers continue to post comment & those who have not... SHOULD!
It is a form of socialising with the masses without physically being there & could make the difference in whether or not a "hobbyist" will decide to see you. You SP`s are in a unique occupation which allows you to offer a rare & esoteric point of view that would be beneficial for others to see.

Cheers,

I am going blind?

Mr O.

Is it me or are you always playing with your fonts Size and color?

 

[anonanon]

I've noticed it too....Pick one and stick with it!!!!

 

[Mr.O]

I do this on purpose!

Mr O.

Is it me or are you always playing with your fonts Size and color?

I do not stick to one particular font or color as I am making a point by doing so.

IT IS NOT IMPORTANT WHAT FONT OR COLOR I POST IN!
What is important is the content of the post.

The comprehension level of the average person is only around 60 - 70% because people are more concerned with looks than content.

I have previously used that statistic & posted in brighter colors & bold font.

My motto is to choose SUBSTANCE over SYMBOLISM!

I don't take myself too serious & most of my comments you will note have a large helping of cynicism.

Many enjoy reading my commentary but I fully expect there are others who won't. take it, or leave it, for what it is.

Oh, he's figured out why some SPs won't see a PERB

There are numerous SPs who won't see anyone who posts on PERB. There are numerous SPs who have told PERB that if Fred wants the $75, there will not be a review of themselves on the site.

I rather doubt that Fred has been making much money from PERB lately. Sheik is here to fix it. Maybe he will and the SPs will see the site as a valuable form of advertizing. Maybe the "wet coast" is not like the other sites that Fred owns, and they can't keep the misgynonic nutcases off the site.

Ok....

Mr. O,

No kidding your doing this on purpose!


Maybe it's just me, but your message would get across better if like everyone else you used regular fonts, and highlighted the key words or phrases you would like people to pay special attention to. I can live with it from time to time, just as with the larger fonts, but I think of it as respect to the other posters not to use the larger fonts, and colors all the time, but maybe that is only me. I don't want to insult you, but at first I only figured little girls played with fonts like this, on places like myspace, which is why I actually noticed you.


Your message is lost on me, as the size of your fonts, and color don't affect what percentage of your message I retain, but rather who said it. Anyway I am happy to see you read my post, in normal font, and were still able to remember it long enough to respond to it. But it's not that big of a deal, just I find it annoying a little, so I made the mention to see if it was just me. I think I saw something in user CP that could override all your fonts and colors.

 

[luv-em-n-lv-em]

There are numerous SPs who won't see anyone who posts on PERB.

That hasn't been my experience. Though maybe that is because I mostly visit ladies or MPs that have been reviewed and because sometimes I don't mention perb at all.

In a few cases, I have been asked not to write a review. In one case because she was trying to stay out of the limelight because of a stalker and in another because she said she had more than enough business from regulars and said many of the perb guys were creeps.

In a few cases at MPs (BBC, Mystique, Intrigue for example) when I have mentioned perb at the end of the session they were surprised/shocked to hear that anything like perb exists.

 

[Mr.O]

It's easy to be an idiot

The funny thing is, its so fucking easy to be negative. Requires no thought whatsoever. Decent members dont go around telling the girls they are PERB or any board, they dont discuss the review boards during their sessions. They go to see the girl to have a bit of fun, not for chit chat on "what do you think of so and so on the board".

It's pathetic that guys would do that. It stresses some girls out and agitates others to the point that they refuse to see board members.

This is a very dangerous profession for girls to be in. Every day they face the danger of being "outted" to their families, their employers, their boyfriends who are not aware of what they do on the side for extra $$.

PERB is like the fight club, you don't talk about it.

EXACTLY !!!

It's easy to be an idiot, just start posting without thinking!

I put this post here (started this thread) for the reasons stated in my post & those hi-lited by Sheik.
I believe everyone benefits from the free flow of communication.
Your comments may not be a positive one toward another but it IS a viewpoint & if it has merit it will stand on its own feet.

What I dislike are those who seem to do nothing but try to assert thier superiority via vile attacks which often run others down without validation.
Useless attacks on others whith constant vulgarity such as FUCKER, FUCKWAD, ASSWIPE, DIPSHIT...... you get what I mean, are only a reflection upon the intelligence of the writer.
Any amature can write crap like that.
U can get your point across just fine without trying to destroy the other poster with vulgarity, try being a little more creative in your communicae you just might find you have a talent for it.

misogynic - being a person who parctices misogyny.

mi·sog·y·ny Pronunciation Key - [mi-soj-uh-nee, ]

–noun - hatred, dislike, or mistrust of women.

Good one sdw

That's completely contradictory. If the message is what matters why fuck around with the stupid fonts and colours? What is the point, exactly? Is it just "Hey, look at me!" Let us all in on it because it just seems pointless. Your "motto" says you should post messages as simple, concise and basic, but you choose to just be distracting and annoying. We are a simple people. What's wrong with basic black?

Exactly. Well sort of. I am not a "simple person" lol. I do like change, but I do not like this extreme or frequentallity (if that's a word! ) change. I find it annoying that you post like you do. I'm not going to sugar-coat it. But if you find it satisfying that you change colors more often than a 15 year old punk rocker's hair color, then that's fine. I simply feel that what you have to say is more important than what color it's in, and guess what? I think that basic black is pretty easy to read off of a white background. Some colors are hard to read with a white background.

And guess what? You say substance over symbolism, but apparently, according to your posting habits, it's the other way around.


Just my 2 cents....

[Miss*Bijou]

Are we talking about SP's posting and stupid members or are we talking about font and color?
Can i choose only one topic to reply to or can I reply to both?
Is there a specific font/color/size I should be using for my reply?

hmmm..

Thread seems to have been started about the first topic..but.. then.. why this meaningless discussion over someone's choice of font & color?

Oh well, I'll hijack too I guess....

W.H.O - C.A.R.E.S - A.B.O.U.T - F.R.E.A.K.I.N - C.H.O.I.C.E. - O.F. - F.O.N.T. - ???

seriously guys... jeeeeeez! pick ,pick ,nag ,nag.

A simple comment about it, fine. But a whole freakin discussion? Let him use whatever pleases him!.. why should he even care what you like or prefer?.. or why do you care? Come on, get a grip!

 

[mick_eight]

I'm not sure about this Mr.O but it seems weird he comes on as some omni importent guide to the masses, like a Pat Robinson. He chides people, saying they have low IQ, bc they don't march to his drummer. For someone who joined in Dec to be telling all how things should be, it smacks like he has been here before under another handle. I agree his fonts are annoying. Yet he tells us if we don't like it too bad. But still tries to tell others how to act on the board. I would label him a low level hypocrite who's ego is too blind to see that. Everyone is different, how hard is that to understand. Like in a relationship, trying to change somone almost never works. I imagine he won't change anyone here also. If it makes him feel good to preach, go for it. But I doubt his pretty colours will make any difference. And please don't rag about my spelling bc if you look close at his posts, he could use a spell check also, tho I kinda enjoy the anal people who think we're in some sort of spelling bee here ,Mr O comes off as he is above all that, but in fact he is no different then most other dogooders who try to always try to make the world have a group chorus of kumbia. Sorry not going to happen. Best to get over it as soon as possible as you're wasting your time, not to mention the pretty colors

 

[TotallyTouchin]

Back to the issue

and not to the colour of font ....

I agree. SPs have a point of view and personality in our posts that shine through. It actually turns on or off (depending), potential clients when you think about it.

I have found Mr.O to be a really interesting poster and I would not dwell on the way in which he chooses to deliver his posts. Everyone is different. Do you get mad when Hitrack posts with just a weird bunny with a pancake on its head? NO. That's his style and he actually has alot of substance to his posts that I have read thus far.

On the issue of SPs posting, I have alot alot alot of SP friends. 99% of them know of perb but would never post on it because of mean attacks etc by detractors of what have you.

I understand that Sheik is attempting to change that image and for that I give him huge credit.

In defense of Mr.O, he has made a solid original point....saying that he enjoys hearing from the ladies here and would like that to continue and expand. That is the issue in this thread AND NOT whether posting in pink changes someone's credibility. So....I agree. I have a ton of sp friends who are interested in posting on perb and are waiting for it to become less hostile.

I agree with Mr.O. A well-rounded perb is way more interestng.

Oh well, I guess it does not matter much. Whatever size or colour is ok I guess. As long as PERB flows, then, I guess that's why we are here, right?

Are we talking about SP's posting and stupid members or are we talking about font and color?

Ok thanks for calling me stupid, I feel hurt.... but wait a minute I sorta enjoyed that, as it was in regular font. Kidding aside no need to get your hair up in a bonnet, as I mentioned above I just made the mention as I personally find it a little annoying that's all. I am sure when you find something annoying we will hear about it.... o wait does this count?

I have no problem if O decides to post in hot pink and uses larger fonts, that is his choice, but some other boards I follow, call it bad etiquette. I know it started a while ago, as most people were using dial-up connections, and the bigger the text the more scrolling, and we all know what dial up is, which I still use from time to time when I travel.

But of course I love it when SP's write, well lets just say the ones that have something interesting to interject into a conversation or something intelligent to post, like say, your pussy eating guide. Merci

Creative use of fonts and colours can make the post more difficult to read. Sometimes, despite my best intentions, I just give up on such posts. I write this not because I think anyone worries if I read their post, but because I assume that a poster write to be read, not just for a bit of mental masterbation.

 

[Miss*Bijou]

Ok thanks for calling me stupid, I feel hurt.... but wait a minute I sorta enjoyed that, as it was in regular font.

lol damn I'll make sure to use some funky annoying font next time I really want to insult you! Which one is particularly insulting?

Actually I was not calling you stupid.. I was referring to the original post that referred to a member implying reviewer was paid.. not about the whole font thing at all...

Kidding aside no need to get your hair up in a bonnet, as I mentioned above I just made the mention as I personally find it a little annoying that's all. I am sure when you find something annoying we will hear about it.... o wait does this count?

I don't own a bonnet.. I got rid of it some time ago. it did not suit me and did not match with any of my shoes. Actually, I was being a 'lil silly and a tad sarcastic here not pissy at all maybe I should add more smileys next time to get that across? See, this is what I look like as I am writing this:

But then again.. Didn't someone post something about the annoying over usage of emoticons some time back? Hmmm.. *poke* poke* Am I annoying anyone? Great. Wonderful. Tough crowd...

And yes, there are many things I find annoying ...an impressive amount of things, to be honnest! This is probably why this font issue isn't at the top of my list

I have no problem if O decides to post in hot pink and uses larger fonts, that is his choice, but some other boards I follow, call it bad etiquette.

Hijacking is also considered bad etiquette, is it not?

But of course I love it when SP's write, well lets just say the ones that have something interesting to interject into a conversation or something intelligent to post, like say, your pussy eating guide. Merci

Bienvenu mon cheri!

 

[hitrack]

Also don't write (type) to much. 2-3 lines at most. Anymore after that and I lose inteest in what your saying and just scroll down or hit the back button.

ps: anyone remember that chick, I'll give ya a hint SSSSSSSS that used to post everything in caps and pink....now that was fukkin annoying.

(Miss*Bijou post#20)
Excellent post (and placement of Smilies).
Presently on Terb (not sure how long it's been that way) you are only allowed to use one Smilie (of any type) per post (which places a serious crimp on some posters' abilities).

When I saw Mr. O's first posts, I found it a little confusing. Without the "Mr" in the name I was sure it was an SP, with all the frilly pink and baby blue fonts.
Or at least someone brave about expressing himself.
I'm surprised that it took this long for someone to complain (but then Grav has been gone for weeks).
I'm more inclined to be as basic as possible. I've never bothered with sigs, some are a waste of bandwidth.
