My Rant For Today

[drlove]

Recently I have been getting requests for information on the adult entertainment industry (e.g. SPs, strip clubs MPs etc.) from members who shall we say, are either very new to the board, or do not have very high post counts. So, for you individuals out there, since I do my best to answer such queries in the interests of adhering to the spirit of this board, at least have the courtesy to:

a) Say thank-you

b) Let me know how things went in the form of a pm or review

c) Get back to me on the info I request from you in return.

To date, I have heard absolutely nothing. (You know who you are). Perhaps I should just let you guys figure things out on your own.

Rant ended.

LOL... judging from all the grammar mistakes in the PMs, either they were very drunk, or dropped out of school at a very early grade level.

You have to realise that being a reviewer is a lonely job without that much satisfaction unless you look within.

A member once gave me this advice you read above. It applies to this hobby, and the voluntary contribution some of us extend to our community. The fact that this resource is available to us now, unlike in the past when this industry was without the world wide web. We as hobbyists want to give back to the community by giving information, suggestions, and of course reviews. To get appreciation, celebration, or even praise, is just a bonus rather then an inevitable reaction. Although I do agree with you DrLove, I am also just passing along the advice that was once given to me. Embellish the fact that within your act of contribution, is in fact where you will find your appreciation.

Don't get me wrong, the non-response, the failure to write a review, or even the failure to exchange simple information, are all very frustrating and I have gone through them oh so many times. Yet with that said, a small flaw in our discreet hobby is insignificant to the benefits. Hopefully, more newbies will read this, and start understanding that this community is fundamentally based on a hobbyist's duty to contribute.

Take it for what it is worth, and have a good Friday.

1) Thank You
2) I have, many.
3) It's 9.5 inches. Why do you ask?

Just joking you. Good post.

Recently, Sheik and I have butted heads over this issue.

I believe that reviewing is the lifeblood of the board. Without it, the board collapses under shilling and misinformation. People from the old days remember when Fred used to say this over and over. Reviewers and people giving out hard-earned info deserve respect, not sneers or stupid ass comments.

The result is that if someone reviews, and you've ruled out that person as a shill, DON'T BE AN ASSHOLE TO THE PERSON REVIEWING UNLESS THERE'S GOOD REASON. They're doing the board a favour!

I get the same PM's as dr. love and it's amazing how many times people don't even bother to say "thank you" or "I'll hit you back" etc. If you have five posts and you're also an ass, well, please expect no response.

PHINE, I'd say it this way: No good deed goes unpunished.

This goes further then TERB as well. I am on a few internatinoal boards, and many times when business guys are travelling into Toronto, they ask me for information. Along with recommendations, I link them to TERB as well, to view some of my reviews. No thanks, no reply, not even a review.

As for newbie reviewers, you still got to take their reviews with a little skepticism sometimes. I mean maybe not publicly, but definitely don't beleive everyone.
