Hi Erin

Sorry, another penny or two from me. Please forgive me, this might not be the last thing I say on the subject.

The paying advertisers, i.e. the ESA girls (and a few boys) are, in my opinion, the most important interest group to consider here. While the gold members do bring in a significant amount of revenue and are a very important stakeholder group, ESA cannot exist without our girls. If there are no girls, there is no service to advertise. The gold members will then have to take that very significant amount of revenue and give it to someone else.

Dear Mr. Bond,

Thank you, with that being said I will not be creating a new forum at all..
This has been misinterpreted.
It would simply be a new posting category if we had to look into the advertisers and punters request for the sole purpose of advertising specials etc.
I respect everyone's rights and principals and do not wish to change anything only perhaps try assist to make it easier.

I must discuss this with upper management and will get back to you all.

Much appreciated as always for everyone's ideas.

Erin

Thanks for that Erin and, if I misinterpreted what you posted, I humbly apologise.

my mama used to say life is like a box... sorry wrong one

my mama used to say if it aint broke, dont fix it.
Leave the forum the way it is

I believe that the status quo should stand. The forum already has sufficient rules, the principle one being mutual respect.

I truly hate the way people bandy this term "respect" around. Respect is earned, based on behaviour, not demanded based on circumstance. You want to "respect" the right of a WG to place additional advertising in a discussion forum? Fine, let's do that. Now try to also simultaneously "respect" the right of punters who want to actually discuss things on that forum and not be inundated with advertising. You can't do both, so now you are forced to "disrespect"someone.

This is *SO* not an issue of respect. I'll repeat the analogy I wrote in the above post to Veronica Franco. If you take out an advertisement in The Star classifieds, you do not automatically get the right to also place your advert on the front page too, just because its the most read part of the paper.

No problem at all Mr.Bond.

Erin

Thank you Oraljim,

That is the point I was trying to make by saying in simple terms that I would look into creating a thread just for the advertising purpose.
Saying it as simple as I can..not disturbing anything or changing the ESA Forum as it is at all,simply making it more user-friendly.
We shall see what happens here..
I am here to assist best I can.

Erin

Is 'The Star' a newspaper based solely on sex? Think carefully with regards to what youre saying because it makes as much sense as putting sex flyers on cars at a church vs a strip club. If The Star was a sex newspaper and I paid to have my advert on the fromt page, damn straight I'll throw my toys out the cot!

If we wont be allowed to posy on genrral discussion regarding specials, then surely punters shouldnt be allowed to ask for specials or budget punts or ask for advise on which girls do xy and z as this is also what posting specials and services in the general discussion category is useful for. Creating another section for this is ridiculous ! ESA will end up being dissected onto little categories that makes a few people happy and will deny us the right to direct clients attention to our ads etc.
