A proposal

[yonah]

What if people start treating others with respect and not treating the forum as if it's a private "cliques-only" playground? Maybe that's why this forum is driving away traffic in the first place apart from the fantasized reviews and claims of ginormous manhood e.g. banging four girls at the same time, and having their cliques cheering for them in subsequent comments like typical social media trolls.

This is just my 2 cents. Also the "dating WL/ML" threads, maybe make it a private thread instead because there's people who either think sex workers as sewage or pretend to behave that way to discourage punters from actually wooing a sex worker of choice. If it's made private then whatever username both parties want to use can chat with each other as if it was a dating forum. If they're both happy and want to take it to the next level, they can exchange contacts through PM. I know it may be a hassle to see a favourite sex worker at her workplace daily so if the sex worker doesn't trust this customer 100% with her private contact they can use the forum for such communications until they're ready.

Doesn't matter if my proposal gets rejected but it's worth a thought.

.....apart from the fantasized reviews and claims of ginormous manhood e.g. banging four girls at the same time...

I think you should stop fantasizing about the ginormous manhood.

Have you ever stopped and think about how can any man can bang 4 girls at the same time without the rare gift of 4 ginormous penises?

Authentication is a problem with punting reviews.
How do you verify that a review is real? Is there a way for cryptographic verification? Some public key certificate?

-------

A potential solution:

If punters took a photo of punting location such as the room (without revealing the girl or themselves) and post it privately to the moderator to verify. The photo needs to include location and time meta data which matches the review.
The moderator then needs to quickly verify the picture of the rooms is legit.
One easy way is for there to be a unique QR code for each room. The punter takes a photo of this QR code and submits it to the forum review system.
The review system verifies the QR code is legit along with information about the location and time. If all three things match, the review is legit because the punter was at least there.


------


Until this problem is solved, punting forums generally start off legit and very quickly gravitate towards advertising and fake reviews.
Setting up a membership fee provides a barrier to entry. However, as you mention, it is a low barrier and does not serve much purpose aside from reducing viewership which ultimately affects web traffic.

This forum has been going strong for over a decade now, there are new parlours opening every week with young working holiday visa girls arriving every day. It’s not going anywhere.

Write reviews, ask the right questions, don’t engage too much with the general talk section and you’ll get maximum value out of this platform.

This site hasn’t gone down due to a hack (like Auxxx allegedly did) because there is no valuable credit card information to get. It’s kept free for us and the shops pay for the maintenance. Perfect business model.

Why did the other forum need credit card info?

Membership fees for site support. Here, advertising pays.

Some advice if the girls wanted to get on to this forum to chat or find customers they would of already done it by now
Plus a W/Ls time is not free, if she wanted to chat up John’s she would be charging for her time

They must have collected data to charge people subscriptions. I would never give personal details on a punting website
