For the Guys That Like to Text

[Bit Banger]

... my hobbying phone does not include texting capability. Therefore, I don't see ladies who prefer to communicate exclusively via text message.

... But for me, it's P411 appointment request, email and phone interaction to arrange meetings.

+1 on both counts, especially the first!

Crystal named MANY of the reasons that I don't text. I am not into these kind of games, only the kinky, sexy, one-on-one, one-on-two, three-on-one, two-on-four kinds, which do not include texting games.

As for me I've stopped allowing text from gentlemen I've never met or had conversations with in the past for a few reasons ..

Time wasters is the biggest text like crazy then not set an appointment or NC/NS

The same person would call/text/email/send communication via the sites this over kill and being all in a small time frame made it appear it was more then one person and in the end cost me time with other gentlemen who where not playing this game and to me sorry that is exactly what it was

Age you can't tell the age of someone when they text vs hearing their voice and being able to ask in a respectful way how old they are. I've had young gentlemen show up and I've turned them away because they look young and then say "I'm an adult I'm 18"

It cut into my time to get ready for appointments it cut into my time to do a lot of things honestly. I've not had a gentlemen call me countless times on his way to see me asking this or that it's done via text how ever and a 3min phone conversation vs a 10min text exchange.

While yes LE will contact how ever they see fit and whom ever they see fit it is much less work for them to take in printed text exchanges or emails then it is to have phone conversations transcribed.

When it comes to text vs email it comes down to instant gratification you are far more likely to get it from text then you are email. Who wants to sit around and wait for an email to be read if at all due to it going to spam some don't have smart phones when you can send and receive text in seconds ..

Again these are just my views due to situations with me and no one else. I'll still exchange text with the gentlemen I've seen but not gentlemen it's their first time contacting me.

Don't be getting your beautiful little face in a tizzy. Everybody knows your legit.

I didn't mean for that to come across as me getting pissy. I know you're not trying to pick fights through this post.

But, my point is that if TOB were around in 1876 (just roll with me on this, haha) when Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone, somebody would have been posting about how dangerous it is to call escorts or in the '70's when email was getting it's start I'm sure people would be worked up about them being perilous as well. Text messaging is just technology growing and expanding. I, for one, am grateful to have one more convenient way to run my business.

I've heard a ridiculous amount of speculations on what to expect when getting busted from "stings always happen on the first floor of the hotel" to "cops will only do busts in hotel rooms, never houses" and everything in between, but all of these, imho, are just conspiracy theories.

As much as anything else, it's a generational thing. Younger providers will be more comfortable using today's available technology, older girls are still stuck in the pre-cellphone era, where you were either sitting at home waiting for the phone to ring, or waiting at home for your "madame" to call you and tell you where to go for your next appointment.

Younger providers have a smartphone, appropriate apps, and know how to handle different streams of info.

Older girls juggle six different trac fones, have lost the passcode to three of them, and this is why you can never reach them (sorry for the clunky grammar).

Personal observation, or are you just making this up?

Personally, I prefer to hear someone's voice, and while texting is fine for quick messages. it's cumbersome for having a conversation.

[Guest]

I hate texting, personal, or professional it is 1. impersonal, and 2. I would much rather talk to the person on the phone and have a 3 minute conversation instead of a 30 min texting session back and forth. I have way to much going on to spend that time MAYBE booking an appointment.

To many things can go wrong with just texting. If you talk to a person, you can get a feel of what they are like.

^^ this! ^^

I'm gonna have to side with Destiny and Velvet on this one.

I am very uncomfortable with texting only to arrange a meeting with a provider - so much so, that my hobbying phone does not include texting capability. Therefore, I don't see ladies who prefer to communicate exclusively via text message.

As Velvet says, once a working relationship between client and provider is established, then text would seem less problematic. But for me, it's P411 appointment request, email and phone interaction to arrange meetings.

A significant number of providers I've met require at least one phone conversation before meeting with a new client. A reputable practice in my opinion.

She is SO not legit...

[Guest]

[Lovely_Leigh]

Why I dislike texting:

1) waking up to "I wanna cum on your face and then piss on you" without so much as a "hello" or "good morning".

2) in my experience, most texters haven't thought the conversation past the "hi" text resulting in 20 texts just to get basic info out of them. Even now when someone sends me an email that simply says "Hi" I typically don't respond. If I do it's with a Ravi Shankar YouTube video or something just as random.

3) it's hard for me to get a feel for the individual with only "where u at" type of exchanges.

4) I did the text thing for a few months and in that time I never scheduled anything that started out as texting. IMO texters waste time. I found the same info could have been exchanged in a 5 minute conversation or an email. Instead with texting it sometimes takes multiple hours and dozens of exchanged texts only to find the "window of opportunity" closed. Time wasted.

5) although I was very honored to be named "Prostitute of the Day" by a BS religious website that will go unnamed, the barrage of scriptures and hate messages interspersed with Jesus' teachings/quotes/sayings got old (ie "I hate you whore...but Jesus loves you." That was my personal favorite. I quickly became educated on "The Bible" and what it says about prostitution. Random yet funny note: I asked the online church's leader why he had so much time during the day to text me (for a month it was couple times an hour from 9am-5pm EST) and he said it's cause he works for the (federal) government so he has extra time on his hands during the day. Haha. No lie. Still laugh about that one. )

/end of thread. Thank you.

/end of thread. Thank you.

As usual, your comment contributes nothing of value nor is it even close to being on topic, but I think we have all come to expect that from you.

Although I am not surprised that this thread has drifted way off of course, I am a little surprised that so many ladies allow text messages knowing the kind of games that this line of communication opens the door to. I am a no-bullshit type of provider that does not do well with any games outside of the nude kinky kind that go on between two consensual adults behind closed doors. With that being said, I think it's obvious why 2Big is defending text messages like his life depends on it, because he is a game player to the utmost degree.

[Guest]

Wow, your comment was not helpful in any way shape or form. But you got to get an insult in, so good for you! Keep up the good work.

As we all know, text messaging can work for setting up appointments. I am not arguing that. But, let's be realistic here, allowing text messages for booking purposes opens the door for games. Sure, a phone call can have its fair amount of game players too, but generally, text messages win the crown when it comes to BS and time wasters.

You're so full of shit...they were two separate texts...on two separate days...

GOOD MORNING LEIGH...

[Guest]

You're right. The imperfection IS yours. The article says baby boomers don't like texting. I'm part of the "texting generation" and I don't text. Now that we've established the facts, can we get back on topic?

Apologies. The imperfection is mine.

I should have added that you are always polite when you ask to pee on me.

With all due respect, I believe the door for games is opened when we post our ad in the first place. I haven't experienced any more game playing through text than with email or phone. It's about the same amount between all three. I consider myself a no-bullshit type of provider as well, so I don't appreciate the generalization that we ladies who accept text don't mind bullshit and timewasters. It's just as annoying for me as it is for you, but I get those people coming through all three lines of communication.

[Doug28]

PM'ing and texting are how I schedule. For me it makes the screening easier and painless.

If a girl doesn't have the time for a couple texts, then she's not the one for me anyway.

The beauty of this sport is that there are a lot of dicks for the girls to choose from and a fair number of wonderful escorts to choose from.

We can all hobby our own way and only deal with like thinkers.

Perfect for everyone, right?

I'm part of the "texting generation"

Sure you are. And I'm Scarlett Johannson's boyfriend.

[DontEvenTrip]

I'm one of the few who prefers text over any other form of communication, with email being the least of my favorites. Although I prefer and welcome text messages, I will say the biggest downfall and negative aspect of texting are the "one-liners" and the guys that refuse to get to the point and instead send a dozen texts which consume/waste so much time:

Text 1 - "Hi"

Text 2 - "How are you tonight"

Text 3 - "My name is John"

Text 4 - "where are you located"

Text 5 - "What's your schedule like today"

Text 6 - "Rates?"

Text 7 - "Oh my bad I must have misunderstood your ad somewhere. I will have to wait til payday. Thanks though. You're a hottie! "

All of that could have easily been dealt with in 2 msgs tops.

Text 1 - "Hi, Im John. I think you are a hottie and was wondering if you were available at ______ pm and what the donation is for 30 minutes?

TExt 2 - "Sorry cant afford to play tonight Thanks anyway."

Aside from that, I don't have any real issues with txt. xoxo

[Songdog57]

IMHO it's can be hard to get a sense of the person you're dealing with by texting. I'm just sayin'.

Yep. This is why I am considering only allowing tests from folks I have seen.

Another hot topic over at the Denver Post

[Guest Euclid]

Just curious. Does it not bother you do not know FOR CERTAIN that you are actually texting with who you think you are texting with? You could be texting with her sister or her pimp, and not even know it. I bring this up because I read a recent review where the guy stated that the whole meeting was set up via text message and he never actually spoke with the lady that he was planning on seeing. Maybe the lady in question did not even know that she had an appointment (it was a no-show review) because she was not the one texting in the first place.

Start with the premise that you're going to text a number you've read in an ad. Next, there is no higher or lesser likelihood that the individual you're communicating with - regardless of medium - is the individual you're trying to meet. Last, it's entirely possible to say "Hi <name>, saw your post on <board> today, was wondering if you had availability at <time>" and the conversation does or doesn't progress from there based upon the individuals communicating.

I've done phone conversations exclusively, e-mail correspondence exclusively, text exchanges exclusively and any combination of the preceding three as well to set meets.

All depends upon the individuals and the circumstances. Rocket science.
