hey Jackson -

how come words like fuck, ****, and cock are okay on the forum,
but ***** (b*itch) is censored?

[blue]Because the only use if the word b*itch is to refer to women in a derogratory manner, which is not permitted on this site.

Thanks,

Jackson[/blue]

@Jackson

Good point, Good rule.

The women at any of these clubs are giving us a service, which we are willing to pay them for. Some of them do thier "jobs" well, and others do not. We should treat them ALL with respect and not relate to them using any type of masochistic terminology.

Just simply refer to them as girls, ladies, women or even mamas.

Thank you

Jackson...not to be an ass, but the word b*tch can also be used as a verb...(i.e. I b*tch too much about little things.)

Hi Jackson,

Could you take down that limit for 300 secs between posting?

It really doesn't make it easy to respond to more then 1 post with this limit. I suppose this has some reason for not having spam posting or something, but then you could always ban the bad mis-user?

Thanks for the good work!

Hi Jackson -

Due to the recent problems with certain "overly active" posters, I will not name any names, let's just say he was recently assigned his own section...

Anyhow. Have you give any thought to a moderated forum similar to what is available through [url="http://slashdot.org"]slashdot's[/url] [url="http://slashcode.com"]slashcode[/url].

In that system, people are assigned "karma", and then randomly asked to moderate comments made by other users. The more posts you make that are considered good, increase your karma.

When members read the comments, then can choose what level of "karma" to read the posts. The trolls are moderated at (-1) for instance, so you can essentially make them invisible while reading the posts.

An additional control is that people with good karma are also given the opportunity to metamoderate, which means they review posts which have been moderated, and judge whether they were moderated fairly.

This system keeps the original moderators in check.

Basically the good posters are always given the chance to rise above the chaotic noise of the trolls and spammers, and yet no one can say that they were censored, because the posts, though usually unread by 99% of the visitors, are available to those who want them.

It seems like the system works pretty well. Slashdot has a good number of posters that could only be described as "professional trolls". The ranking/rating system minimizes that. The day I accidentally click on goatse.cx from here, I will know that the WSG has finally come of age.

anyhow, just my dos centavos.

Hi Jackson,

I commend your views on members back channeling thecontact details through private emails. However, in my case, I have had the misfortune of seeing a clamp down by LE because one of the members was very forthcoming with details on the forum. The girls were the sufferers in that case. To avoid such a thing happening isnt it prudent to be a bit more cautious??

Perhaps the senstivie information could be routed through your private email?? If you could ascertain the requestor is not a vigilante.

Your thoughts on this matter will be appreciated.

Justfun.

Jackson,
I am of course trying to make positive & valuable contributions to the forum. I recently posted a reply to seeksgoodtime's message concerning the exchange rate against the real. But it is not posted. I don't believe there is any problem with my message & if there was I assumed I would hear from you. I hope to move closer & closer to Senior Member status as well. Could you tell me what happened with my message? If it was just lost in cyberspace, I will write it again. If there is a problem with my language or content, let me know please.

I understand and respect your not making the board a free-for-all. However, it's a catch-22 for newbies. How can we write reports if we don't know where to go? Maybe a policy of allowing 1-2 e-mail posts for newbies, but no more if a report is not posted.

[blue]I appreciate what you are saying, but the idea behind the forum is that other members who have traveled the road before you have posted their experiences in the Forum, thus providing you with the information you need to "know where to go".[/blue]

Jackson,

I understand your reasoning behind your actions. Many Forum posts are arguments or discussions regarding non-hobby related topics. I have seen many of these strings. I agree with you in saying that “this does nothing to enhance the value of the Forum's collective database “, but these rants can make a Regular member into a Senior member. The quality of a member’s post goes unchecked. I have also heard many stories of ladies being hassled by LE, because a member provided too many details in the forum. Inappropriate postings could be the reason for so little action in areas. I have not been a regular contributor because I do not have a lot of time or money for this hobby. I also refuse to post useless messages. I regret posting this message since this does not help my fellow hobbyists, but I wanted to voice my opinion.

My apologies to my fellow hobbyists,

AsianRob

[blue]You comments are completely appropriate and most welcome.[/blue]

There seems to be alot of Underground parties going on in NYC lately. I have been to many and the ones with Yahoo sites I post openly and you can join then get screened as well. There are others that are by invite only so I post my e mail and those of you with alot of posts I then pass along the info. They are nervous about who attends them. I have been e mailing with a few 100 over the last 2.5 years so you are cool. Its the ones that come out of no where we are worried about!


[email]*******@blackvoices.com[/email]

Jackson,

I am curious - once again something that I contributed did not make the site. I posted a fairly informative message in the Rio board concerning credit card use. I have yet to see it posted - it's been several days now. Is there something wrong with it? Is it old news? Did I break a rule of this site?

Please advise,

Jackson,

I am a I am shocked by the number of reports that are getting through with racial slurs embedded within them. I feel that this is a brotherhood of mongering and we should not discrimintate against mongers unless they are doing despicable things like child molestation.

What can we as fellow mongers do to impress upon our fellow mongers that using terms such as those that belittle or take away the dignity of others should not be used on this forum. I realize you have many other things to consider and this must indeed be a monumental task upon which you are overseeing (and doing a damn good job, I might add) but let's see if we can stop fellow mongers from insulting other mongers (be it intentional or unintentional). Examples: Just do a search on, "chink", "nigga", or "jap" and you will see what I mean. These are unacceptable terms that in my humble opinion have no place on this truly outstanding board that you maintain.

Thanks for taking time out to listen.

NC Hunter

Allow me to be the skunk at the party and not stroke and massage the administrator and his guidelines. Is Jackson even aware of the format his board has evolved to? What reports are you talking about for cryin out loud? The ratio of meaningful reports vs. pure discussion and inquiries is negligible if not nil. So now if a not so senior member wants to post a follow up question on a topic, you wanna call his mono syllabic inquiry a report? You wanna have him wait till you parse it, patronize and approve it? Is that it? Either the administrator is all too flabbergasted with having control over a forum, or is enamored with the business of over kill, time consuming administration.

And why are you taking these tedious, draconian measures? Cause your board is free? So charge us and reinstate ease of use. You think patrons of this board are destitute and desperate for freebies? You want us to do hand stands cause your board is free to the public? Ultimately, if a member has a quick question about a hotel or a location, don’t ask him to post his report so you can examine it, he doesn’t have a report, his is a two worded question.

[blue]What's "draconian" about asking people to use correct capitalization and puncutation?[/blue]

Ok, I am supposed to post a certain number of reports before I become a senior member, that is reasonable.

However, the problem is that nobody will be reading anything I post before I become a senior member, nor will anyone respond to anything I write. This is because by the time my messages finally make it to the forums, 3 days later or whenever, they will be on page 2 or 3 and nobody will go back there to see them.

Why can't the delayed messages, after they've finally been posted, be given the actual posting date and time, rather than the original posting date and time?

This would allow new users of this site to participate in conversations, which they cannot generally now do, and would encourage them to actually write reports, since they would know that people would actually be reading them. This would encourage more senior members.

Maybe this would be too difficult to do, practically speaking. But as it is now, I'll probably go back to reading these forums and not posting, since I've figured out that nobody reads my posts.

[blue]Hi,

I appreciate your observations.

First, I cannot change the program's code to effect the date/time stamp on the reports as you suggested.

Second, The WSG Forum is an archive of travel reports, not a chat room, so it's not designed to encourage back-and-forth chatting between members.

If you have information to report, then post it. If you want to chat, then go to a chat room.

Thanks,

Jackson[/blue]

I would like to comment on the PM function of the board. For the most part i like it but i would like to ask if it is not to difficult to have the functionality of this tool only be available to senior members. Because i saw a post of a first time poster that just requested info and then said PM me with the info. I think that is clearly a sign that he will never post and proably not read again. He wants info sent directly to him and a notice of when it arives. I like the PM function because it makes meeting other easy with out have to make a post and having the whole board show up. I am not a great member but as a good member i think this could stop people like this the same way the posting e mail and web address help to prevent it as well.

Reddog,

That guy really "got your goat" didn't he? (I read your message to him!)

Personally, don't you think it would be better if 1st timers were "encouraged" to come back and post their experiences, we might learn something new?

He may have requested a PM because he is shy, or simply because its his 1st time and didn't know.

If his request for a PM means that he is jumped on by "seniors" and brandished a "one timer", and given no or little help to enjoy his experience then it does not really encourage him to come back and share what he got up to with the rest of us.

Clearly, however, I can see your point in trying to dissuade "one timer" activity when the activity is simply a matter of questions and no reports, but sometimes we (or rather this forum) will have to take the risk.

If we assist him and give him the best chance of having "fun", then surely this encourages a revisit more with reports and thanks, don't you think?

Maybe not everyone is like me and you, but we do need to give the "new boys" a chance.

Anyway thats what I think, and I am sure El Matador del Amor Jackson will make up his own mind.

Ciao for now.
ST

I agree with much of what Chris2 has to say regarding the posting/timing of regular members' reports. Many people who read regularly look only for the most recent postings. Thus they don't get to see newly-posted entries by Regular members as these appear in the thread according to their original time-stamp rather than the time of the actual posting.

Jackson - since you filter these messages anyway, and you can't/don't know how to over-write the time stamp of the program, perhaps it makes sense for you to write some macro to re-submit the posting after you've approved and edited it. In this way, at least the post will get a new time-stamp and will then be read by more of the senior (more regular) members.

Only a suggestion. I don't know if this makes sense to you or if it is way too much work. Again, just a suggestion but I sense that many regular members feel a sense of frustration that they are not fully involved in the conversation because of this treatment.

Thanks for hearing me out.

Hello,

Writing about BB (bareback) sex should not be permited. You can "kill" another people today having unprotected sex.

Thanks

Jackson,

I hate to offend you, I really appreciate this site and recommend it to all.

You recently put a message in the Boston forum about not mentioning other "competing" web sites.

I don't know how you feel about this, but I'd love to see a brief discussion about this.

There are many realities we deal with on WSG that we don't deal with on the "competing" sites. Here, its almost 100% mongers. Rarely do we see providers post. Personally, I like this, though I do know that many read here. But is strictly guys on the most part and most conducive for guys.

Yet...as we research info on providers, we must recognize the reality that data has to be mined from multiple online sources. Here, at WSG, is a great place to compile that info and report on what we know, or direct others to where local info can be located.

While I don't think posts should promote other "competing" spots, but it should be understood that knowing the resources iavailable is valuable to accurate reports here.

For instance, many large cities have alternative news sources that often have back pages for escorts and such to advertise and give contact info. Any traveller to an area should be aware of the resource and even how to get it online when available.

Banning this alternate data from being mentioned limits things for newbies and travellers. I'm sure you can see the value in these mediums.

Well...the same is true for other sources of classified info for escorts. XXXXXlist.org is just such a site. Its just advertising...and should not be banned.

Again, I'd like to see a dialog or here your thoughts on what is acceptable and not. If this is already stated some where explicitly, please forgive me and direct me.

Thanks for all you do. Oh...and happy new year, mis amigo!

Is there any way to have a pop up come up letting members know that they have a private message? Somtimes a monger is needing to get some information like right away. For that night, and he sees a member on and messages him but doesn't get a response back till the next day or later.

Jackson, if you want to maintain a sustainable web site, you need to maintain and enforce your guidelines more effectively. Here are some comments:

- Every once in a while remind all posters that this is a web site to find women for sex. Period. It is all about sharing and exchanging individual experiences. All discussions must be on-topic. Please ask us not to turn the posts to a personal playground for chatting, off-topic discussions, and especially POLITICS.

- Please respect the section topic and comment or ask under that section. Please don¡¯t questions about Thailand in a topic from the Europe section.

- All posts should meet standards for minimum contribution on the topic. How many times we read that after tens, hundreds posts a fellow punter is asking for information that has been discussed on several occasions. We are all obligated to meet minimum guideline for the purposes of this site. What is a report without quoting a price, area, location/address, and comments on the service?

- Screen those who may use the privileges given in this board to promote local businesses or personal interests, get tougher on them. Set higher standards. Screen short timers like you are doing now.

- (temporary) EXPELLE those who claim money is not an issue in their questions or comments.

- Set up new folders for newbies only. Lets discuses in those sections the no¡¯s that might turn a place from being a heaven to hell, Pattaya, Phonm Phen, Cebu, Angle City, ..... even Prague, Budapest. ..... To experienced hobbyists there is no other bigger danger than: newbies, want to be a punter, inexperienced hobbyists, and obnoxious flashers who could turn a place upside down in no time. We are all in it for the same reason, aren¡¯t we? I say lets go even further and limit the newbies on the number of posts they could have access to READ before they prove to the board that they have the capacity to observe what is being offered here in this board.

- I am afraid that if no steps are taken, some experienced fellow posters may refuse to discuss and share their latest discoveries just because they are afraid they may lose them before the chance to enjoy it again. Granted, I have taken several leads from this board and turned them to absolute fantastic trips. But I am not sure if those who may follow will be as discreet as I was when I explored it.

- Please remind us that photos are for the photo sections only. One or two photos to give heads up on what to expect. EXPELLE those posters who post photos from commercial porn sites. Give them warning first!

- Limit the graphic description of your encounters to short comments. Just enough for the pleasure of the readers, this is not an erotic storyboard, ... or is it?

- I guess the final comment is to remind everyone to please STAY ON-TOPIC and avoid asking repeated questions.

MINIMUM POSTING SIZE REQUIREMENT

Jackson,

In my opinion, my suggestion of limiting postings to those that have 400 or more words, is a good idea. Dialogue quality will improve and people will feel more informed with fewer distractions. When you limit the posting size to a minimum of 400 words what happens? People are invited to give an hour in thei day to read and post messages.

This, I believe, is a crucial part of forming online communities. Limiting the discussion to well thought out postings only and cutting out ten and twenty line postings will then allow 40 line postings - the ones that tell a story and inform like no other- are worth reading. 40 lines, 400 words - 1 Hour. The number of postings will drop of to that which is well thought out 5 minute reading time. When a member feels that his posting has more value because there are fewer distractions - then an inner voice is heard. The members can feel confident in scanning the archives and finding an even more informative data base. When I do my research on databases, I go for the web site that can give me up to date, informed, well thought out opinions on a particular destination. I like to be able have that information at arms length - and not to wade through a whole page to find one message. The other day I was checking out Argentina and I basically spent the whole day gathering all the bits of information, accomodation, guides, clubs, websites etc. It was quite fun though.

Well then - I'm of my moms visiting tonight and I haven't seen her since new years. Oh and by the way, this posting is less than 400 words - cut it out!

Kapalika

I could not disagree more. The purpose of the board is not fixed in stone, different users have different objectives. Information is paramount, but doesn't need a minimum line size to be relevant. What purpose is served to use 400 lines to say that law enforcement is heavy in Lawrence MA or that Betty Boop in Lowell MA gives you sticky shorts in her finish?

If you read certain boards there is certainly a spirit of comradery established between members, and humor can become painful if dragged out too long, but is certainly found on many of the boards.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, and you can read or post as you see fit, but most boards seem to find their own rythm and, with the rare exception where a member abuses other members, it is clearly working.

This site is great. Don't change it.

Occasional abuse by uneducated or ill mannered mongers should not be allowed to kill the golden goose. Free exchange of information is the beauty of the internet. This is not an exclusive club or society. All are welcome but abusers are kicked out.

Keep it free and open !!!!!!

Senior Citizen, I agree completely. If I had to use four hundred words to explain that there were lots of SW's working Aurora Avenue last night, people would get extremely bored and quit reading my posts. Since when is verbosity a virtue. I believe that short and concise posts make more sense.

Civ2000

extra care should be taken to differentiate posts that talk about differentiating real women from transsexual / shemale / transvestite, for a simple reason.

jackson says that this forum is for sex with women only. granted. if you want only sex with women, you'll come here expecting only to read about this. discussion on how to ferret out real women will be very helpful to prevent any disillusionment. it is known that many regions are replete with impostors. (i encountered one on lockhart rd, hong kong and he was jailed the very next day.)

jackson, you must be careful not to censor anything that talks about how to differentiate real women from transsexual / shemale / transvestite, unless it has other things that break forum rules.

[blue]hi,

your argument sounds good, and for the first year of the forum's existence i endeavored to make the distinction, but eventually i became aware of two phenomena that required me to adopt a zero tolerance policy:

1. the guys looking for this stuff would use carefully worded reports to disseminate the info to their like-minded perverts, and...

2. the subject could not be discussed openly under any circumstances because. like the discussions of **** persons, it would spark too many flame wars.

eventually, i decided to just stop all discussions on the subject.

thanks,

jackson[/blue]

Jackson,

Regarding TS/TV content, you posted:
"Eventually, I decided to just stop all discussions on the subject."

Does that include passing references to areas or places (bars in Pattaya come to mind) that should be avoided due to heavy lady-boy content?

I've made a list of all those type places mentioned in the Pattaya forum (to be avoided on my trip), and personally thank the guys who have helped me steer clear of 'things in the dark' that I really don't want to see once I get there.

Just a thought,
Atlanta Monger

Jackson, your rules are great as usual.

One rule in Question, if you cant post e mail address's how do these guys sign up on the underground parties. Thay all have yahoo addresses??

[blue]Jimmy,

Can't everyone use the PM system to exchange their email address?

Perhaps there is some mis-understanding here: Email address are not permitted in the Forum, but you can exchange email address via PMs.

Thanks,

Jackson[/blue]

About new members. I understand, Jackson, that you have more and more people who have registered since you have added the pictures sections for each country.

I have also notice downtimes those last days, mostly during the night (your time) which means daytime in Europe.

I believe there is no way to avoid people to register even if they do not contribute, however would it be possible, as a rule for any new suscriber, to ask a new member to provide at least 2 reports whitin a 1-week timeframe. Then the guys who are just looking for amateur picture would not want to write anything... and with not post within a week, the ID would be deleted ?

Jackson,

I like the idea of allowing new members in eventho the forum struggles with the allocated/paid bandwidth.
But I do think that new members should at least file a report or - even better - submit a photograph when applying and not just comply with username criteria.

I have registred to another website a year ago, a crap site for south america in fact, which I haven't really used. But at least, in order to register properly and be able to see all people's post, they required you to submit, with your application, 2 reports. 1 on your country or place you live in, one on another place you have visited. They make some checks to make sure what you write is not copy/paste from somewhere. Then, after 24 hours you get full access, but in order to keep your membership, you need to post something like 1 full report every six month (if I remember).

Jackson, I think this would be a good way to start with. Ask the new members to submit at least 1 full report, something like 50,000 characters or so.

As a poster of photos I have a problem with lurkers. If the new crop of applications is in an attempt to continue lurking-which is probably 80% of the new herd of apps-then create some posting rule as membership requirement. Simple as that. I just don't like lurkers. Not on this site.

[size=-2][u]EDITOR's NOTE[/u]: [blue]Posting of this report was delayed pending revisions to [u]add a spaces periods[/u] at the ends of sentences. To avoid delays in future reports, please include one blank space after the period at the end of sentences. [i]Thanks![/i][/blue][/size]

50,000 characters are too much. What we want is substance in the posts rather than a lengthy one.

Jackson,

I agree with renee on the below post, but that is not the reason for the post. I saw you coment about "milky boy" in the latavia section. I would like to have then removed. I think you could add to the posting guidlines not diliberate repatition.
Also last year one new member posted in ever eastern european topic that he will be there in a few months and would like information. I understand that this can not be totallyavoided but i think a anti repitiion rule would give cause to delete both posters messages.


anyway that is my opinion for what it is worth.

The meaning of 'general BS' can be broadened to include 'deliberate repetition' within a short time interval. But if the same information is repeated more than 1 month or 3 pages apart, repetition may become necessary.

[blue]Hi,

Actually, posting repetive postings is already defined as spam.

Thanks,

Jackson[/blue]

Jackson, as far as to your plan as stated below:


If your proposed User Name conforms with the User Name Guidelines, it will be activated on March 25th or 26th.
If your proposed User Name conforms with the User Name Guidelines EXCEPT that you did not capitalize the first letter, then it will be edited and subsequently activated between March 27th and April 2nd.
If your proposed User Name conforms with the User Name Guidelines EXCEPT that you did not parse two otherwise separate words, then it will be edited and subsequently activated between March 27th and April 2nd.
If your proposed User Name is an unpronounceable word or was otherwise formulated without any consideration for the User Name Guidelines, then it will be edited and subsequently activated sometime between April 3rd and April 10th


I would agree on your processing the proposed names that conform but need editting after the ones that conform. As far as the ones you are putting off to April 3-10, the unpronounceable or non-conforming-in-any-way names..... If I were you I would send the lot of them a form letter saying sorry, you are going to have to re-apply for membership and let them get to the back of the new line with a decent screen name. No reason to coddle people who can not or will not make an effort to choose a name which fits the forum. Just my .02

Hi Jackson , Like you I also think that the new wannabe members are just applying for membership to be able to view the pictures .If they really had something to post on this forum they would have become members a long time ago.

On the thought of having them post at least one mongering report.Here's my take on that.It will actually prompt the new members to post frivilrous reports or maybe even a false report to gain membership and that will not be of any benefit to this forum.

One suggestion would be to propose a trial membership period in which the new members can be screened out later on as to if they have been compliant to forum policies.I do understand that this means more work for you Jackson.But I am sure you will make the right decision like you always do.Anyways I am with you in whatever decision you make.

Raider

Pictures should not be seen by all members maybe, but rather only by members who have posted some pictures themselves.
So we would avoid lurkers and mongers would have more motivation to take pictures. It is much more easier to write a fake report than to post a fake picture.
If members are not interested in taking pictures, then why would they be interested in watching pictures?

Being a Senior Member myself it may not seem correct to suggest it, but how about only Senior Members being able to view photos.

That way Jackson will be in full control, as he will evaluate the posts of the Regular Member before upgrading him, and then at the same time let him view the pics.

I guess it may be difficult to make the changes to the Forum that Farang Steve propose; that you can only view pix after having posted pix yourself. Just thinking out loud!

In order to deal with the excesive use of bandwidth, I would start by applying a zero tolerance to the posting of useless photos: they should be deleted as soon as possible to stop everyone from seeing them and wasting bandwith.

By useless photos I mean any photos which are not related directly to the hobby. Plenty of photos are being posted on a daily basis which have absolutely nothing to do with finding women: they show neither women nor places where you can find women, they only show tourist attractions, views of cities or they are directly copied and pasted from news websites. They represent the biggest waste of bandwith I can think of.

According to the current guidelines photos must be:

1. Taken personally by the poster

AND

2. Show women or places

I would modify condition number 2 to 'show women or places that are directly related to finding women (e.g. Pick-up bars or clubs, Massage parlours, SW areas, etc)'.

Any photos posted that don't comply with conditions 1 AND 2 should be considered as spam and deleted.

Those spam pictures don't contribute in any way to the purpose of this site.

I know this is not going to solve the problem of excessive use of bandwith but it will definitely help to reduce it.

Ok, I have to review my statement on a potential mandatory 1st report to gain membership.

It is true that if we request new members a full report in order to receive their membership, they may write whatever, which would maybe be not true at all, and therefore it would not help us.

On the fact that we should post picts to be able to see pics ? I do not agree. I do not carry my camera all the time, and many girls do not allow pics. Moreover I do not want my wife to find my digital camera, and see a woman naked on some pics !

Maybe the last solution is to ask 10$ for people who want to see the forum and the pics...

Rene02,

"they may write whatever, which would maybe be not true at all, and therefore it would not help us."

There will always be a senior member who will detect a BS post...

Yes I agree...
well, then I think there is nothing we can do.

Or remove the pictures section, but this would be a shame.

Or another idea. When registring, a member has to state where he lives and in which country / place he is interested. Then he can't browse the reports and pics from his place and the single country / place in which he has interest. Then let's say that after 2 posts and 1 month of active browsing, he can see the whole forum.

The logic of the last post utterly escapes me -- why would you prevent someone from seeing things about their areas of interest and locale, when it's most likely they'd have information to contribute about those areas?

In any event, this is all too complicated. Simply restricting picture viewing to members, and having a process of culling regular members who haven't posted or logged in after X amount of months of membership would save substantial bandwidth and simplify everything.

Joe Zop, I agree with you. I think restricting the viewing of pictures to members only is a good idea. I also like the idea kicking members who have never posted or who haven't posted in X number of months. That would help get rid of all the damn lurkers!

That would save bandwidth for all the truly depraved mongers like us! lol.

I've just about given up on trying to get people to post photos in the photo gallery. I know Jackson has also made a valiant effort several times.

No matter how many reminders get posted that this is a "photos only" section, there is always a hundred newbies that want to impress everyone with their brilliant erudition on this or that inane topic. That prompts someone else to impress us with their opinion, and it goes on and on...

Wouldn't it be great if the program could select for jpg images when people tried to post? No jpg, no post. I know it does this for message size and even banned words. This wouldn't restrict the comments, but it would make the inclusion of a photo the "price of admission" for posting comments to the photo gallery. Oh well, probably just wishful thinking.

Cronin

I would agree with Cronin that the Photo Sections be jpg posting restricted, with minimum descriptions added. Maybe make the "minimum" standards used for senior status upgrade requirements the standard for photo gallery viewing.My two monetary units.

But do not forget that some people have no pics to post...

For example myself, I have made some post on the Saudi board, but trust me there is no way one can take a pic of those women...

Rene,

So if they don't have photos, then why post anything at all on the Photo Gallery? If you/they don't have a photo to put on the gallery, why do people feel they have some burning need to register their opinion. And you can plainly see, its not just their opinions of the photos. Its pages upon pages of arcane nonsense.

Are their family photo albums at home filled with pages of comments about grandma's latest surgery complications or sister's problems interacting with people of different races? No. They're filled with photos...right?

Thank you's can be PM'd. Comments can be PM'd. Discussions can be posted to general discussions. Just possibly there could be another section added for Photo Discussions. But frankly, I for one would never log into it. They are NEVER as interesting as the photos themselves.

Just my arcane opinion.

Cronin

I would suggest relaxing the prohibition of repetitive posting when it comes to something relatively non-temporal. Examples include 'hot' districts, legal issues, local custom or [i]modus operandi[/i] etc.

Most forum users are expected to read back no more than 10 pages without compelling reasons. When time passes, postings scroll down at various rates. If a particular article scrolls beyond a certain point, the author may feel the need to re-post it. The prohibition should be relaxed more if more additions or revisions of the information are made.

You have to make it a complicated enough process to become a "picture viewer" that people can't just post a series of photos or posts some day and wait for it to happen. But simple enough that all the main people who post here (generally defined as senior members) have access.

I think the senior member method as suggested below or even something a little more demanding is the best.

That may have a side effect of making us a slightly more exclusive club in the long run by having a few less regular members (those who don’t really want to post more than once in a LONG time but keep coming here for the pictures) of course those are probably the people costing more than they are worth.

I would like to suggest that the forum rules be changed to reflect the legal age of consent (LAC) in the area of the report. For instance, the LAC in Alabama is 16, but is 18 in Tennessee. If the activity is not illegal, then I believe that people should have a right to post about it. Here is a link to the LAC for different countries and states. I use this like a bible when I travel just in case something is in question. Many countries LAC is as low as 13 for females.

I myself do not participate in sex tours or mess with individuals under the LAC. I believe that this forum should reflect the laws that are enforced in each country.

http://www.avert.org/aofconsent.htm

[blue]The existing Forum rules shall remain in effect. There shall be no discussion of any person or persons under the age of 18 on this website.

Jackson[/blue]

Gee Jackson,
I know how you feel about child molestors. Any comments on Mr E's stated personal preferences? I personally find the need to carry such a reference while travelling quite repugnant.

LoveLOS

LoveLos,

Needless to say I totally agree with what you're saying.

The E said: "I believe that this forum should reflect the laws that are enforced in each country."
Does The E mean that illegal activities in general can not be mentioned on these pages?
That would mean a nice little clean up, leaving only the Singapore and The Netherlands sections...

Child abuse is child abuse, the LAC is not meant for grown ups to see how low they can go and definitely not for paid sex with minors, it is meant for people of similar age to get together without too much hassle.

I very much doubt the reasons behind making sites that show 'legal ages of consent'.

my previous post was not meant to offend anyone, nor was it meant to show my "personal preferences". being in my 20's i am probably one of the younger posters on this board. i have been in the hunt since i was 16 years old. i do it for the sheer thrill. i am not a child molester, nor do i have an interest in **** girls. but younger guys may be interested in finding younger girls. i was a member of this board back before it was in this great format and i wanted to find "younger" girls becasue i didn't want to mess with old farts. but at the time i was like 19 or 20 so i was always looking for girls that were around my age. and like i said, the lac in alabama is 16, so i was always looking for girls between 16 to about 20. i love my freedom too much to break any laws conerning the lac. i am positive that almost every guy, at least once in his life has meet a "younger" girl and he should be aware of the lac where he is.

i mean, why turn down perfectly good pussy if it's legal? and i have read many post time and time again where they wanted to and the girl solicited them, but they turned it down because she was 17 and he failed to realize that she was the lac.

and as far as the comment concerning this forum reflecting the laws associated with each country/ state... i was referring to the lac (like you didn't already know that). being caught with a prostitute is one thing... being caught with an **** prostitute is another.

and one last point. i'm not sure if you guys are aware of this, but there are some places in the world where the lac is above 18. 18 is a standard that american's just have stamped onto thier brain, but the truth is that it doesn't apply to many states or to the rest of the world. that's why i made the suggestion. no need to start a flame war about it. this website is all about posting information. i only wanted to add more useful information to the site.

E,
Thank you for clarifying your position. I agree it is one matter to have sex when you were a child also, but I have to think back to my teenage years and reflect the maturity and decision making abilities of my conquests of those days:

My conclusion is that, despite the LAC, a sixteen yr old girl is still a child in a woman's body, and an adult needs to respect how fragile she is at that stage of development. Now that you are an adult, I seriously urge you to consider the effect your actions have. A child will likely be more deeply affected by your actions than would another adult who has the mental and physical maturity to deal with a sexual situation.

Hell, 18 is probably too young also, as you note, but that is where the line is drawn in much of the world, and, significantly, that is where Jackson drew the line for us.

And I thank Jackson for clarifying his position in the matter also...

This does not constitute a flame, just a statement of a strong opinion. [b]Just becaue something is legal, does not make it acceptable, and visa-versa[/b]. Nobody much gives a rats ass about legality on this forum anyway, in case you haven't checked the local laws in most states in the USA, [b]PROSTITUTION is illegal[/b] here; but that is still the topic of the day on this forum!

You also make note that 16 year olds are not in your "personal preferences," unless, of course, they happen to be in Alabama, where they are at top of the list ("perfectly good pussy"). Somehow that just does not make sense to my feeble reasoning.

LoveLOS

LoveLOS

Truthfully... pussy is pussy to me. Whether it's 18 YO pussy or 35 YO pussy.

If I am attracted to the female, she's the LAC, and she let's me fuck her, I most likely will. I am not going to go to jail over pussy and therefore I follow the established laws, whether they be in Alabama or Pakistian.

We can sit here and debate when a female is old enough to make her own decisions about sex. Some may think it's younger, some may think it's older... heck, I have female friends that consider girls under 21 stupid, dumb, and vernable regardless of what the law states. But if you fucked a willing 20 YO does that make you a bad man? It's all a matter of opinion. You say 18 and I say LAC, whatever that may be. But I will again warn you...

The LAC in some places is ABOVE 18. So please don't go on the rest of your life thinking that 18 is the golden number. You may end up behind bars and have to register every time you move into a new neighborhood.

E-ster,
I am very clear on the OVER 18 in some localities issue. Perhaps you would be good enough to catalog and post a warning for the localities in which 18yos are considered jailbait? That would be helpful.

I previously agreed with your assessment that some women are still childish and immature at 21. However, in most places they are still considered a woman, not a child.

I also agree with the statement that pussy is pussy in the 18YO - 35YO catagory.

Where we seem to disagree is in your comments that 13YO to 17YO pussy is also fuckable pussy if she is unfortunate enough to reside in a locale that has lawmakers that are not particularly protective of young girls. My opinion is that she is a child, your opinion is that she is fair game for fucking.

I think I have stated my concerns as well as I can, and I feel I understand your thinking. So I guess we will have to agree to disagree since we have little common ground on our points of contention. Others may be less charitable. Also be aware that Jackson has now made his ruling on your comments and you are advocating a position that is not in agreement with his preferences and forum rules.

Be safe,
LoveLOS

Jackson,

You have clearly stated your opinion on this matter, yet [b]The E[/b] still insists upon discussing sex with girls under the age of 18 -- reference his comments in several posts below:
[i]"If I am attracted to the female, she's the LAC, and she let's me fuck her, I most likely will"[/i]
[i]"why turn down perfectly good pussy if it's legal?"[/i]
[i]"It's all a matter of opinion. You say 18 and I say LAC, whatever that may be."[/i]
[i]"pussy is 'pussy"[/i]

Frankly, I'm shocked that LoveLOS, skinless, Freeler, and others haven't already turned him into smoking cinders, but the flaming is sure to escalate unless this kiddie-fucker is stopped NOW.

Please remove this pervert from the forum.

Thanks,
- Atlanta Monger

I am going to move my comments to the complaints about other members section. The E-hole is at it again, and he must be stopped!

Dear Atlanta Monger,

The E no doubt is a kiddyfucker, but exposing one before didn't help - he did not get banned and is now paying a premium for something special in Bangkok.
We are no fools and we know what he means by that.
These sickfucks will always find a way to convince themselves that they are not sickfucks - but they are.

Freeler: Read TFF to see where Atlanta Monger stood on this issue. He should be monitored closely.

i totally support jackson's stance on this issue - no discussion of children under the age of 18!

some posters seem to have forgotten that it's not just a moral issue or jackson's personal beliefs, it's also a legal issue. if wsg ever starts to discuss **** sex in earnest, then the forum will open itself up to legal scrutiny and possibly be shut down for good. and if wsg is shut down, then we all lose out.

if "the e" wants to go someplace where the lac is lower than 18 (as low as 13 in some countries, if not lower), then he is welcome to do so quietly, on his own time. but i don't need or want to read about it here on wsg.

EHole,
I remember you from the past on this board, probably in the NOVA forum as being particularly obnoxious in your presentation of contrary viewpoints. While I am in support of the basic premise of "freedom of speach", that does not extend to this subject, not because I have some self-appointed young girl guardian delusions, but rather because it brings unwanted and unecessary attention from LE who specifically scan these type boards for illegal activity discussions. By so doing, you are not only in violation of Jackson's rules on this subject, but are more importantly potentially endangering fellow members.
You are very well aware of the majority of the members viewpoint on this sensitive subject so my question for you is "Why bring it up at all?" Is it merely to get a rise out of people so that you get what I perceive to be the attention you crave, but do not get? Well, it's the WRONG kind of attention dude! I have no problem with you having any personal predilictions in the sexual department, just learn to keep your mouth shut when they will cause problems. As you can see by the number of negative posts here alone in this slightly obscure little corner, this is NOT a subject that many are interested in. Drop it!

The E,

With all the distinguished attacks you've been subjected to of late, let me urge you not to rise to the bait.

Also remember the famous phrase:

[i]Illegitimi non carborundum.[/i]

And personally, I think there is a world of difference between 18 year old and 35 year old pussy. Each has its advantages and disadvantages. Best to sample both on a regular basis.

rev. skinless,

to save y'all time rtff, here is my one and only post (dated 2-22-2004) regarding the "under 18" subject prior to the e recently bringing it back to light:

[quote]jackson,

i agree 100% with chicagoboy23. i think your previous policy of the topic being completely forbidden in any context is the safest choice for all concerned.

if the wsg forum is truly for "men seeking women...", then there is no real need to ever mention children here.

i advocate the removal of all posts related to the topic, including the dedicated forum thread.

i don't consider this to be an infringement of free speech, just smart moderating - something you do quite well.

thanks for your consideration.

Freeler: As only one example, check out this Letter to the Editor from Atlanta Monger on 18 February. Some of us do RTTF and some of us do fuck legal age only. And we do not want to be associated with AM and others who are in denial of their own (criminal) tendencies. AM is not a serious person. Same same BJ.

Jackson (editor),

While I fully support your efforts for this fine forum, I think most members (senior and otherwise) have had about enough of the Skinless rant.

Not content to flame away in the special forum you provided, he has now moved his personal battle to other forum threads, including this one. None of his recent posts belong here, as they are NOT 'letters to the editor'.

I understand that Skinless has been a frequent and valuable contributor in the past, but no more - he's merely become a nuisance.

Please act on the behalf of all forum members to reduce the impact of this tirade - perhaps ban him to his own personal rant thread, i.e. Samus Aram?

Thanks,
Atlanta Monger

gee, so now daring to disagree at any point with the tactics of the great skinless automatically means one is a closet ****, no matter whatever else one posts. what a crock.

watch yourself, am.

Skinless,

DAMMIT: You're on vacation.
Go fuck 'Tet', Dah1, Dah2, Dah3 , Dah4, Nik, CC, Toothlady, Som and the rest of 'em!

[b]jackson: please note, yet again, the dismissive attitude zop and the other suspects adopt to having sex with minors. this is the slippery slope. as i have read zop's "work" and as i cannot help but to fall over his posts which pepper the entire site, i stand over my comments. the fact that that lump of shit labels fucking legal age women with **** girls is the very same tactic nambla adopt. but what ese can we explain from a wanker?[/b]

freeler: i now see zop, the most disgusting of all our contributors, has surfaced here. this would be poet, said he was finished with me as if i was one of the **** "women" who stock the blow job bars and who he can dismiss with a small baht bill. the fact is every single one of the assholes who took the traveller road have serious cases to answer. none more so than el sicko himself, the m muse.

am flames away defending advocates of child sex prostitution and like bill clinton, he cannot remember. some of us do rtff - and some of actually cotnribute information.

zop meanwhile, has most recently helped to fuck up the pattaya board with lbj,. the great lawyer and defender of traveller, and a few other geniuses.

zop, stick to your hypocrisy. go write a fucking poem. or, to put it aother way, please jerk off somewhere else. you disgust me more than anyone else here. so please fuck off you bald headed fake.

freeler: no sign of toothlady. you must have spoiled her. also, in nong khai, the deaf and dumb one left the white brothel. avoid her replacement.

skinless, get a life.

my position on the **** issue is crystal clear, and in total alignment with that of jackson's.

in my 'letter to the editor' post, i didn't defend traveler; i expressed an opinion regarding your nonstop and overzealous tactics that were polluting the forum at the time.

although your purpose at the time may have been lofty, your chosen approach was the low road, full of fabrication and lies (very similar to what you're doing again now).

anybody with a brain who can read tff knows that, and your current lies about me won't change anybody's mind.

you see, there is more than one way to skinless a cat. i don't need to be a ranting and lying fool to get my point across.

- am

Jackson, please note again that Skinless cannot understand the difference between disliking with his hyperbolic lynch mob posts and being against sex with minors. He feels one cannot possibly be against sex with minors and still manage to disagree with his disgusting and divisive McCarthy-like smear tactics.

Skinless, I said I was finished with you because you stopped being the reasonable and delightful poster with whom I had many interesting back-and-forth discussions over the last couple of years and decided instead to lash out at anyone who at all disagreed with you in the slightest way. Your last post simply reinforces that fact.

Rev,
I see now why you are pissed at AM, but AM is not defending your antangonist (the T word), nor child prostitution in his comment. On the other hand, he is in complete agreement with you on those matters. I don't see the conflict?

I ask you, as a friend on this forum, to back down on this one.

LoveLOS

in the midst of rows about sex with **** i have noticed that jackson has banned at least 3 users in a row because of their responses to the photos of muslim women. i think the policy of posting photos of muslim women needs serious review.

Brownout,

Jackson has already given the matter of posting Muslim photos serious review, as evidenced by his policy statement below dated 03-13-04:

[url]http://www.wsgforum.com/vforum/showthread.php?s=&postid=189236#post189236[/url]

Personally, I think he sums it up quite well.

- AM

I urge Admin to refine the already-existing policy about posting photos of women in Islamic countries and about treatment of repetitive postings.

[blue]What would you suggest?[/blue]

I know I'm flogging a dead horse here, but I have a wonderful picture that says it all about the filtered word that spelled phonetically would be: Bee Eye Tee Sea eightch.

This was found on an SP's website; http://www.westsidepet.com and is cross-posted with permission. I found it a refreshing example of a sexworker 'reclaiming' a derogatory word to make it something complimentary.

What's "draconian" about asking people to use correct capitalization and puncutation?

I wouldn't go as far to say it's draconian, but it has a certain Niles Crane quality to it. I can see you fliting around the room your face red, because someone forgot to add a period at the end of a sentence. : -)

Just a small suggestion:

Forums are generally full of messages between two members that are really not giving any information on how to find pros or non-pros in the given area. I think those messages should be forbidden as the members can send Private Messages to each other.

Ryck

Greetings to everyone,

I don't see what's wrong with Ryck's suggestion. There are so many frivolous postings being made all the time. Many, if not most, of them are being made by senior members.

One guy will post a pic in a photo section. Then you get 5 or 6 guys piling on with posts saying "great pic, you da man" or "she's ugly, woof woof". Pretty soon you have a photo section filled with B.S. postings rather than pics.

If someone really needs to comment on a pic, why not ask them to do so by pm? It would clean up a lot of the clutter and reduce Jackson's workload. It seems like it could be easy to enforce also. If it's a worthless post, Jackson could simply delay posting it for a week or not even post it at all.

After a while, the clutter posters would give up because the reward of seeing their dumb comments would no longer be there.
Nibu Raphael might go into shock from "posting withdrawal" but that's a small price to pay ;).

Just my 2 cents worth on this subject.

Rock

So there should be absolutely no social interaction on the open forum? Kind of rediculous don't you think?

Now if there is a poster who only gives props and conversational type posts without ever adding to the useful database this site exists for, then you may have an individualized complaint.

A forum with nothing but facts has no personality and would become obsolete.

rolly,

ditto.

ryck and rock,

sometimes, i agree with the "woof, woof" stuff and whatnot but wtf, if one cannot express their own opinions, then the boards would be totally lifeless. in addition, banning commentary would entail another duty for the overworked jackson! if anything, posting opinions (along with field reports) makes the boards better overall. in a way, we're getting feedback from our peers. i've gotten lots of good advice concerning a rob i've encountered last week. it's all part of the sharing aspect of the boards. btw, jackson gave nibu his own forums across the boards for his rants. he explained it himself in the letters to the editor a while back. if you don't want to be bothered by nibu's extreme questions and posts, then don't click on his forums. simple, huh? that said, the thai photo gallery is beyond help. at least [b]eltib's[/b] movie posting temporarily stalled the long missives. i miss the pics of the thai humpers a lot. ;)


jackson,

thanks for a great site and all the work you do for us.

peace

DL,

I understand where you're coming from. There's been lot's of times when I've seen pics posted and I really felt like adding my own encouraging comments. But, I almost always hold back because I see what happens to a photo section when everyone piles on with their 2 cents worth. You end up with 3 or 4 pics in a row separated by a whole page worth of non-contributing comments where everyone is saying pretty much the same thing.

It's easy to express your comments be they postive or negative. There's a simple way to do it. Just send the guy a private message. You get to express your opinion. It reaches the person without any delay and the photo section stays fairly clear.

Sometimes, I get the feeling that a lot of the posts going up are done because the member is just trying to get some attention or jack up the number of their posts. Not naming any names, but I know of at least a couple of WSG members with well over 100 posts who contributed maybe 7 or 8 quality posts, got their senoir memberships and have been BS'ing ever since.

BTW, I was just kidding around about Nibu. He just happens to represent the most extreme example of what I was talking about. I never advocated a ban on such postings anyways. All I suggested was that Jackson could easily discourage it by delaying or not posting some of them at all. That would seem to have the additional benefit of actually reducing his workload.

It was just an idea. Of course everyone is entitled to their own opinion. In the end, it's all Jackson's show anyways.

Rock

Jackson,

Ignore my previous post regarding 'search' function. I just read the 'Letters to the Editor' topic and understand the situation.

Thanks for a great site.

Here's a suggested (and will probably be ignored!) rule!: Mongers need to know some damn geography! Its pathetic to see a post about an SW/AMP in one area that is NOWHERE NEAR the area of that forum (e.g. a post about Pomona, CA in the "Los Angeles" section!). Of course if this board was more "geography-friendly", this would not be a problem. Then again, if the MODERATOR actually paid attention to what the problem is, and FIXED IT, it would not be a problem!

Who cares about California anyway.

Maybe I will post everywhere and anywhere on that board just to confuse, and irritate you. What do you think about that redneck?

repetative postings in the photo sections are a waste of band width. the area should be for photos. even i have done the "atta boy" thing to some pictures although it is very rare that i do. the only exception is if there is a picture of children in the photo section. i think this should be brought to the attention of the poster that it is in bad taste.

there is no place for picts of kids in a web site devoted to sex. i know it is sometimes hard to tell the differece between a 16 and an 18 year old girl, but if the child is obviously 10 to 14 it is usually easy to tell. as far as i am concerned it does not matter the situation, even if it is a harmless pict of kids at the beach building a sand castle. it either belongs at a disney site, or a ****files site.

i dont know how you would police this jackson. maybe it is impractical, maybe not, but i think it should be done.

Hello Jackson

I have noted increased use of the word 'skank', referring to prostitutes, on the Forum. Am I the only poster who finds this word derogatory and de-humanising? Surely, it should be put on the banned list.

On a different and more important topic, I see that the performance of the new software is improving daily. We all appreciate the great work.

Thanx,

Hello Jackson.

There has been a debate concerning the photo rules on the China thread that deserves your attention. It is concerning "commentaries by persons who do not post pictures", are they allowed. See the photo gallery thread for the past 2 weeks.
Also, "photos of male genitals", are they allowed. Please see my post on today's date in the Beijing thread.

I remember reading your rules and guidelines a long time ago, but now I cannot find them. Where are they?

Folks,

I’m trying to upgrade to senior member, the upgrade app asks how many times your reports were edited or deleted by the administrator, and how many were edited or deleted amongst your last 10 reports. Moreover, it asks how many photos have you posted along with substantive reports.

Now is there an easy way to look up all of the above? I’ll be damned if I’ll go fishing through every page to find the correct answers. Even if you do a search by username, you still get broad threads you’ve to fish in. Anyone on the easy way, or is there no easy way?

El Suave,

I don't know if there is an easier way than a forum search by user name to find out about your posts, but there is indeed an easy way to find out about your posted pics.

This link will work for everybody and will show you all your posted pics

[url]http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/profile.php?do=editattachments[/url]

The upload statistics at the top of the page will also show you the number of your attachments/pics.


Hope that helps a bit

Hi Jackson:

I've tried to check posts from others, and got nowhere with the "Search" function.

I've even tried putting myself through this Search process, and only came up with a list of sites I had visited, not where I had posted photos.

Am I doing something wrong?

Hi
I want that every post in the threads named "photo gallery" should have an attachment to them, preferably a photo.

I e there should be a constraint that if there is nothing attached to the post one shouldn't be able to post in those threads.

Today when I look att the photo gallery thread for Dominican republic on the first 15 posts only 2 of them have actual photos in them. The rest is discussions (basically BS).

Dear Mr Jackson

I don't want a sermon on barebacking by other members, I don't want to listen to that shit here, please make it against the rules, if you don't enlist that rule I will not post anymore pictures.

Thank you

I second this motion. Every post in a photo thread with no attachment should be automatically deleted.

Jackson:

I am in no way a computer whiz, and I don't know how this could be accomplished, but is there no way to divide the posters who actually put up a picture, and the people who want to "comment" on it?

Could a posting without a photo attachment be directed to a "comment" site?

It's really boring for many of us (from comments already made) to scan through a lot of observations on one or another post.

Maybe this is the way you have planned it, and I certainly defer to your judgement, but I believe a large percentage of us really don't care about the carpers' opinions.

Please think about this in your future planning.

Jim

Hi there,

I would appreciate if somebody could please explain to me the precise reasons why photo's with recognisable faces are allowed ?

I have been reading the site admin's threads and can not find the reasons/logic. I have read Jacksons' post on the Moroccon thread some time ago re photo's of muslim women, where it was stated that faces need not to be blacked-out or words to that effect.

I am not trying to start an argument, or passing a moral judgement on those who do post photo's with recognisable faces, I am only trying to understand the reasons.

If the reasons are listed somewhere and I missed them, I apologise and kindly ask you to direct me to the proper location.

Thanks

Damn, I guess I should report myself for addressing this topic, which indirectly is a response to what some other board member have said. Sorry, let me re-do this post:

Jackson,

Hi Jackson,

I dont have a subscription to the forum - I am a regular visitor though.

I know I dont have access to Private Messaging.

I have some contact info which I want to share in a forum. If someone PMs for this info, can I respond to it?

Hi Chaatu,

Hi jackson

Why am I still a Regular member? 6 months passed already and I have sent more than 30 posts.

what should I do to become a senior?


thank you

I dont know how to address this issue or if everyone feels the same way as myself. Im not sure if there should be a rule against it or if there should just be a disclaimer posted making folks aware of the issue such as "Please do not upload medical book like pictures of genitalia"

Well, the issue is that there are more then a few large zoomed in medical book like pictures of genitalia uploaded on a daily basis. Some of these shots are simply disgusting.

What do you guys think about this?

How about not clicking on the link? Those pictures may be old news to you but could serve as a deterrent and/or educating tool to someone else who may not have seen them before.

I was wondering about the rule about embedded text in pictures. I often see posted photos with a name or date embedded. Is this OK? Captions or titles as long as no violation of other posting rules? TIA for clarifying this.

Will I lose my membership if I dont post anything for several years? I am in the middle of the U.S and have nothing of interest to post

Hello

I posted a message in the Kenya forum (1548) complete with picture. in the message there was reference to a website. suprisingly it was deleted but the picture remained. I wonder if I should contiunue contributing free pictures to ISG if I cannot be allowed to mention my website on the message.

I note there is no 'classified advertisement section' in that forum and infact i have just discovered that the forum posting guidlines classify posts that include links to websites as 'spam'. I am witholding any further free picture posts pending your reply.

Here is the message in question:-

Commercial Advertisement deleted by Admin

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EDITOR'S NOTE: This report was deleted because appeared to be a commercial message and/or it contained links to a commercial website. Please post reports consisting primarily of a commercial nature and/or reports with a link or links to commercial websites in the Classified Advertisement section of the Forum.

Greetings Musomba2006,

You didn't post "a message". What you posted was a link to a commercial, for profit website that requires visitors to pay to see your photos and videos. Promoting commercial websites, and specifically pay porn websites, is considered SPAM on this website, and thus your advertisement was deleted.

To answer your other question: You are welcome to post all the photos and videos you want on the ISG, but you cannot use this forum to promote your pay website.

Thanks,

Jackson[/blue]

Jackson,

why don't you create a new member status for paid but not yet senior members, and let them bypass the moderation Queue. Someone who has paid does definitely not want to get banned. Then a ban and the need to reappear as a not paid member is a significant change in status and can be considered a punishement.

I see this as a way to recognize people like Azn Playa when they reappear the next day as a new member, because they will be very unlikely to pay again.

Further more that would definitely encourage more people to pay faster.

Hi Jackson,

I was wondering whether you can add a search function to the pics? Like a country category, so it's easier to find pics from a specific country.

Cheers,

Harry

Hi HH,

With all due respect, what does this have to do with the Site Rules?

FYI, there is another thread for suggesting site improvements.

Thanks,

Ok, here is a question I have regarding posting photos on the ISG.

Recently, a member PMed me, saying that I had posted a photo of his girlfriend, and that he wanted me to remove it asap. I am wondering if this has ever happened to anyone else on here, and what they have done? Keep in mind I am talking about a photo of a harcore pro I met at a brothel, not of a non-pro, or even semi-pro.

I have not removed it yet, the main reason being I'm not sure how to do it myself. I could alert Jackson, but do I have to? The PMs I am getting from this member are getting more and more aggressive, which, in turn, is making me less and less sympathetic.

Would be intersted to know what others have done, or would do, in this situation. Is there an unwritten rule regarding posting photos of working girls that have boyfriends? Thanks.

I can understand how you feel about this guy being agressive, and it does seem to be silly to worry about a hardened pro's picture, but I think I would just take it down (or ask Jackson to) if it is that important to the guy. If you were banging the chick I wouldn't stop banging her, but if it's just a picture why not make the guy happy.
I don't know if it's etiquitte or not, but I try to make people happy epecially if it's a big deal to them and a small deal to me. [QUOTE=Ezinho]Ok, here is a question I have regarding posting photos on the ISG.

Ezinho,

Whether or nor you can delete a photo depends on how long ago you posted it. Any new post, including photos, has an edit button on the post allowing the poster to edit or delete it. I think it stays there for a week or so after the post. After that it is impossible to edit or delete it.

I believe Jackson once said that it is his policy to delete photos only if the subject of the photo requests it. So if the photo has been on the site for a while, it's probably here to stay.

These possibilities are there to make it possible to emphasize important sentences or words, and not systematically certain people.

Some best mongers can be moderators for each country local or specific to control name of threads and comments and what is true or false in each city. To my mind i live in France near Switzerland and i am a specialist for Eastern Europe so i can be moderator only for Europe if Jackson is agree.

Hi,

I noticed that more and more members post a report of distinction to their own reports!

For me, you can't be both judge and judged, so this should not be allowed.

The consequence is that the reports of distinction threads get filled up with poor quality reports of egocentrical members ...

Any comments ?

Yeah, I for one concur! The report of distinction feature is sooo 20th century.... If I ran the forum I would do like this.

1 Enable the [b]post rating[/b] feature. Yes this exists ([url]http://www.vbulletin.com[/url]). This means that well written reports get credit and authors of poor reports understand they have to do better.

2 Only allow moderator(s) award with report of destinction. (The post rating could came in handy.)

Hello Jackson,

It would be nice if our reports could be posted more rapidly. On the Colombian forum as of right now, the last reports posted were over 24 hours ago. This is unacceptable from a posters point of view, or from the view of someone looking for today's information. I know it is your forum and you can post reports whenever the fuck you want, but at the same time you provided us this thread to voice our comments which is exactly what I am doing.

Greetings UrbanWildlife,

As a documented Serial Antagonist, I don't give a fuck what you think about the operation of this forum.

Personally, I wish you'd quit this forum permanently.

Thanks,

Jackson[/blue]

I think it would be a good idea to moderate posts "ex post facto" rather than in advance. Of course, there could be flame-wars and off-topic thread drift and other issues as a result of such a policy change, but the advantages far outhweigh the drawbacks imho:

1) It would facilitate "quick question"-"quick response"

2) It would mean that discussions could go on for a longer time, and questions be dealt with in greater depth, since people wouldn't lose interest quite so fast.

3) The waiting time from post to publication seriously antagonises people used to other forums without such impediments to communication. Seriously; how much fun is it to wait for 12-24 hours before you see a post, and then another 12-24 hours before you might get a reply.

All in all, this forum would jump to life if posts were moderated "ex post facto". And there are certainly lots of people with too much spare time on their hands and their wits about them who would undoubtedly be willing to act as moderators for the discussions about their own countries or home towns or continents even. It works on other forums with even more controversial topics discussed, so why shouldn't it work here?

Great idea, except for one thing: Most people's idea of moderating is simply deleting antagonistic posts. However, on this forum moderating means editing several hundred reports every day so that they conform to the forums posting guidelines, including re-writing posts that are written in all small lettering, posts written in all CAPITAL LETTERS, posts written without any punctuation marks, posts written without any spacing between the paragraphs, posts written with multiple periods throughout the text, posts written so poorly that they are undecipherable, posts with broken quote tags, posts written with no spacing between the sentences, posts with email address, posts written with impossibly poor grammer, etc.

Oh, I see. You thought it was just by accident that so many members write so well. ROTFLMAO!

Anyway, that's why I don't have any moderators.

Now, if you can tell me how I can get all of the forum members to write like they have at least a 6th grade education, then I wouldn't need to to all this work every day, but I know from experience that people write whatever way they want to, so if I want a readable forum, I've have to edit the posts myself.

Thanks,

Jackson[/blue][/QUOTE]Dear Jackson,

It is tempting to call you a control-freak, but I will not ;) I happen to be in agreement with you about the importance of good language in posts. "Readability", structure, coherence - all are important.

But couldn't you have a cut-off point around 25 well written post which didn't need to be modified, at which you no longer moderate that user's posts in advance? I can see that it is important in the beginning, but once you've proven that you can write better than a 6th-grader... You get my drift. (And the three dots were appropriate there, so don't moderate them, please...) (And there too!)

The other points, about email addys, broken tags and capital letters, are issues which could just as well be dealt with ex post facto. Or don't you agree?

You really do think ex post facto moderation would be a great idea except for the language issues and editing problems? I won't call you a control freak, but it is certainly very anal retentive. Which I respekt and am afflicted by myself.

Sincerely

Charlie

Dear Jackson,

I noticed that you are edditing all reports - that is a lot of work and I can not imagine that this is easy.

In the past you had established a different rule - you had senior members where reports were not edited, they went straigth to the forum. Do you want to go back to this rule or do you want to keep up with all this edditing?

Carls

[QUOTE=Illogic]Man I have shit load of photos but that is the problem I have with posting photos on this site after a 17 hours they are now property of Jackson (which is unfair) and he won’t remove them if you request.

I belong to another forum in which you can’t edit your posts after 30 mins but you keep full control over your photos indefinitely and that is the way it should be. Photos are a touchy issue these are not porn stars or actors but real people with normal lives.

A lot of these girls’ families don’t know what they do for living. Then you got guys who never try to hide the girls identity (this should be a rule) so fucking what if they are a pro. They have families. I highly doubt their mother, father or brother would love to get passed a photo of them sucking dick or swallowing nut or posting nude in front of some old sex tourist. I am done posting photos unless some more control is levied out.[/QUOTE]

Which is why many of the long time posters don't post photo's. I have video and pictures of girls from many countries, and when I did post I posted them so blacked out or hidden that no one can figure out who they are, and that ruins it. So many of us just are not posting photo's.

It is not that we do not have them, or want to post, it is that we are ready to release control of them. Plus many of the girls we do have photos of we keep them in our rolodex for future use. Many of the girls I know talk to each other and know of ISG. Some were even told my handle. So it gets touchy at times.

Have NO clue to fix the issue, but it is an issue.

Just to point out a contradiction with respect to editing:

On the FAQ it states that edits can be made for 25 hours:

[url]http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/faq.php?faq=posting_questions#faq_posting_questions_04[/url]

[i]2. Senior Members may edit their reports for 25 hours after the report has been posted. [/i]

But editing is actually only available for 60 minutes.

FAQ needs to be updated.

When she knew about it she was horrified, as she is a mother and her family doesn't know that she is in the hobby.

She asked me to help her remove it since she doesn't speak English. I made a request to Jackson, following his procedure. I gave him ALL the required documents, including her ID scan, signed request in Portuguese translated in English and other proofs. In spite of this Jackson NEVER removed the photo.

This is not nice Jackson, you acted dirty there. One photo less out of thousands doesn't reduce the monetary value of your website.

B. B.

Jackson,

IMO threads should only be created by admin staff at the request of a senior member. Having an open platform will quickly result in all kinds of personal topics diluting ISG. Such is the case when an ISG member recently saw fit to create the same thread in three SEA countries asking for contact info on lactating women. Total garbage IMO.

What if everyone made several threads to post a question? There would be 500+ threads for some of the more popular countries and it would be impossible to find any real info. I would like to see threads created by admin only and members who desire to have a thread created can post a request in the [b]Suggest New Topics[/b] Section. Any other member who has a question or wants info should post in General Info, each country has one.

Also recently a new thread was created in the Philippines section,"Video Links". While some members may see the advantages of adding a video thread, the risk outweighs the benefit. With the new proposed internet rules ISG might be classified as a file-sharing website and could potentailly face legal action for hosting content that's deemed to be copyrighted material. Just a heads-up.

Sorry, maybe I'm too stupid, but I can't find a solution, only the edit form.

To create a normal text.

The original text with hughe letters and stopping every line is hmhhh.

Hi Forum Admins,

I have a question around prohibition of writing names (of any kinds) in codes. IMHO, the advantage of writing names in codes is that the search string is unable to find it.

Usually, LE don't go and read each and every page of the forum and will do a search option. Writing in codes will help people who are reading and will not be part of search queries. I don't think so, writing in codes does any way to avoid writing correct name; it is to avoid word being caught in search strings.

Let me know if it makes sense.

Thanks,

IC

Hi,

I was given an infraction for one if my post. I am not able to understand how it affects me. I searched but couldn't find anything on site. Can you please explain it to me.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask. The site states that you cannot name any person in codes like a*cx*v.

Can I name that person in whole? Like abcxcv?

I noticed I can't post my e-mail. Should I post my home postal address or landline telephone number, so somebody can contact me?

[blue]===============================================

Greetings,

It appears from your post that you don't quite understand the Forum's Private Message service.

To use the Forum's Private Message service, both you and the Forum Member you are trying to contact must be either a subscriber or a Senior Member.

For more information, please read: http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/ISG_Payments.php

If you cannot afford $20 dollars to buy a subscription, then perhaps you can convince another forum member to purchase a subscription for you.

Jackson[/blue]

Hi friends,

I want to purchase the subscription to this site. But the gtbill site asks for.

First Name.

Last Name.

Email Address.

Address.

Cardholder name.

My question is which of these information I need to provide of my real self? I do not want to associate my real name, real email address to a sex site.

Thanks.

[blue]===============================================

Greetings,

Let me address your concerns about using a credit card to purchase a subscription.

1. [i]Is there any danger that your credit card data might be stolen?[/i] No. Both the shopping cart service and the credit card service I use to process the credit card transactions are both conducted on secure, encrypted websites, so your credit card information is secure.

2. [i]Is there any danger that your credit card statement will show that you've purchased a membership to this forum?[/i] No. The credit card charge will appear as "GT*isginternetsale18888890788" which is more easily explained as a regular payment to anyone who might read your credit card statement.

3. [i]Is there any danger that a law enforcement agency might force me to divulge your forum username?[/i] No. I delete the shopping cart transaction data every few days, and that's the only connection between your credit card charge and your username. In other words, the credit card charge doesn't include your username, only the shopping cart database has this info, and I have total control over the shopping cart's database.

In addition, the forum's servers are located in Hamburg, Germany, safely outside the USA legal system, and in a country where commercial sex is legal.

4. [i]Is there a possibility that I will take your money and disappear?[/i] No. This has been a membership website for several years, and nobody here has ever reported a single problem with using their credit card to purchase a subscription. Believe me, if there had ever been a problem, it would have been reported it here.

5. [i]Are there any options other than using my credit card?[/i] Yes. You can purchase an anonymous, pre-loaded credit card online and at numerous retail outlets. There is also an option to purchase a subscription by mail using cash.

I thought someone needed to be a Senior Member to message me. A regular member with just 6 posts, of which none can be read is messaging me.

Don't both members need to be a senior member to message each other?

Hi,Age of Consent vs Age of Majority

What is the age of consent policy which is allowed to report on ISG?

Example:

In the United States the legal age of consent is 18 years old. In Europe 17 etc.

According to the US state department report, the legal age of consent in Laos PDR is 15 years old.

[URL]https://www.state.gov/documents/organization/220418.pdf[/URL]

If I write a report about Laos, is it permitted to describe girls ages from 15 up? Or is ISG permits only by USA legal definition etc?

Thanks.

[blue]=============================================

Greetings Gentlemen,

The Age of Consent is the age in which girls can participate in consensual, non-commercial sex with their teen-age boyfriend without said teen-age boyfriend being charged with statutory [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord123][CodeWord123][/url].

However, the Age of Consent is irrelevant to the members of this forum.

What you need to focus on is the [u]Age of Majority[/u], which among other things is the age in which they can vote, get married, enlist in the military, and participate in commercial sex activities.

Please exercise caution and govern yourself accordingly.

I will further add that a US citizen is prosecutable if engaging in commercial sex with under 18 anywhere in the world.

Question:

Is it approporiate to make negative comment on pictures posted?

For excample to express how "ugly" that lady is and how can one "do" her.

Please comment.

To postmaster.

I fully respect the reprimand I got for planning in a public area a meeting with a non-paying reader. It should have been in the "meetings" rubric, or the best, in a private message.

However, at the time, he had stated that he tried, but could not make payment the usual way. Therefor I was tempted to do this. I apologise, I am in full agreement with rules and will follow as my intelligence permits. G.

I just got an infraction. RCI.

Can anybody explain to me what it means. I had commented on a thread titled "Asking for contacts" in the India section. I requested contacts of Indies as I thought the thread was meant for asking for contacts. I didn't know that was a mistake worthy of an infraction anyways my bad.

May I know the rules of infractions? How many infractions before impounding? It says a period of six months and 1 point. What are points?

Telephone numbers and email addresses are prohibited in the forums, got it. But the rules are unclear about Twitter links. I often see Twitter links in posts by others but mine are edited out although I have not been gigged for an infraction. Please make clear the rules about Twitter links and please inform your administrators.

[blue]Is difficult to know if is a personal account or commercial, for that reason we try to not allow Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or other apps links.[/blue]

Along my bucket list is "pornstar" and "Arab chick" and I've run across other users in different threads who say they have the inside on either Euro pornstar mecca or underground Arab girls mecca in heavily restrictive Islamic cultures.

I'm all for treating a fellow ISGer to a nice steak dinner at Olive Garden (and I have twice so far), but these dudes were asking for some pretty steep finders fees.

Am I just stuck with the reality some ISGers are just like that?

Can anybody explain to me what it means. I had commented on a thread titled "Asking for contacts" in the India section. I requested contacts of Indies as I thought the thread was meant for asking for contacts. I didn't know that was a mistake worthy of an infraction anyways my bad.

May I know the rules of infractions? How many infractions before impounding? It says a period of six months and 1 point. What are points?[/QUOTE]Did you ever find out what it means?

It appears this (Madras / Chennai) forum uses more code words, many Tamil words that makes it difficult for others to discern. I don't see this practice in other forums (cities in India or international). I understand the intent (not make it easy for LE to do searches) but we need better ground rules to make it easier for non-Tamilians to understand the content.

I believe some of my reports are being ignored / deleted instead of posted after admin review.

I'm pretty sure they're within the rules, but if there is a reason they didn't get approved shouldn't I get some type of notification that they didn't make it?

I sent something on the Thailand Pattaya topic a couple days ago and I still don't see it. This has happened before and I just thought I maybe didn't click the right place, but now I'm pretty sure I sent it.

How do I know it worked (or not)?
