  Backpage is where da hoes advetise. TER is where the clients talk about said hoes. I.E. backpage features the mechandise and ter is the rating site.

  TER is the better of the 2 sites. As Estafador writes, TER has reviews and has more credibility, but keep in mind: Buyer beware is a good frame of mind.

  TER is essentially a review site. The two main sites for finding escorts are Backpage and Cityvibe. Of the two Cityvibe tends to be more upscale.

  Try Eros. More upscale and more better pics of the girls. Backpage has so many fake pics, it's laughable.

  As I understand it Backpage has been pretty much overrun, have to weed through a lot of shit to find anything worthwhile.

  TER is $30/month and backpage is free. I would recommend TER because they have reviews on the girls listed there. Sometimes you will meet scammers on backpage or even worse get robbed.

  I've been reading of a LOT of LE busts off of Backpage at least here in Phoenix so if I were to try the escort route I'd stay away from that!

  how can you tell what's an le bust on backpage? I only search up individual lapdances and massages and explicitly ask for them (never did but I will once I get bulkier). anything else I would want I discuss in person just so I know its not a trap

  Stay away from backpage girls, unless you like being ripped off. With TER look for girls that have had lots of reviews from more than one client, ideally girls that have at least 25-50 positive reviews.

  Wow, Louisville must be at least a mild exception to the "BP as ripoff" rule. The local USASG forums keep pretty good track of who's "legit" on BP locally, and it's seems to be a fairly significant percentage. Not half, but not far off.

  Lucky you, george. I am quite sincere. Repeatedly I see stories in various locations around the USA about the arrests being made from bogus " Backpage ads. Ya never know, that's why I'd go for someone on TER with multiple good reviews from different clients.

  Don't get me wrong, there's stings and frauds going on, it's just that the local USASG boards seem to be able to keep..ahem...abreast of many of those, outing the former and pretty quickly spreading the word of the latter. Not an ideal situation by any means, but it sounds much better than some of the horror stories I've heard about other locations around the country. There's a rumor of LE interference, read "raid and citations", at two of the city's more well-reviewed provider locations this past week.

  I saw someone put cityvibe. Is that a good site to try?

  Setting up an OTC arrangement with a stripper in a strip club is safer. You know in advance exactly who you're seeing, you get the chance to try her out ITC first, and you don't need to worry about getting arrested. It's a lot safer all around.

  Don't most guys who go the escort route stick mostly to well reviewed Providers? Seems dropping in on a new girl who just posted would be risky. You could meet LE instead, she could be a ROB, her pimp might decide to roll you... of course if you are the type who finds the risk part of the rush, then you need a few bad encounters to remind you that the risk is real to keep the rush coming.

  Still would like to know how to spot a bp trap before you call.
