This in my opinion is a little unfair to the other advertisers who post ad threads. Now you might say that it's up to them to make the best of things here, and perhaps do something the same, and you might be right, but in the current format, this would be a nightmare to regulate and moderate. And for posters, would lead to great confusion as to whether that could reply to ad threads, the confusion that would be brought about by things going off topic etc. and the entire board would either look like one massive ad forum, or one big general chat going on on ad threads. People would be posting on ad threads seeing banter going on on them and not even realising it was an ad thread, and then going of topic as things sometimes do........
I know you want to flirt, interact etc with other posters and members, and believe me, I'm all for that. I'm all for encouraging the ladies to post more, but that's what general chat etc if for.....
Nobody wants to be a communist about this here, and everybody wants to see a bit of banter, but in my opinion, ad threads should only be posted on by members seeking information, and the escort involved. This would keep the playing field level for all. Now sometimes people like to compliment ladies on their ad threads, but from a mods point of view, it's very difficult to see when it's just the odd few questions and compliments, and when it's turning into a full scale banter and bump fest..........
Now some people will say that it's not fair on the ladies with limited English who can't post in that way, and I'm sure the ones who can, will say they worked hard to be able to do this so should benefit from it...........But in my opinion, this should be done in the rest of the forum......
Of course, I've seen ladies criticized for posting in the main forum and accused of only doing so to promote themselves..........so again this is a no win situation for you........
There are a lot of dilemmas for mods here. People see things in different ways, and mods are only human and may see things differently from other posters also.........
