Street Cred?

A question that nicespice asked me the other night made me think of this topic. She asked if I would have posted my "Maximizing OTC When Traveling" article from 13 years ago if I knew then what I know now. I said absolutely. I was fresh off of a string of good OTC adventures in a handful of cities and finally seemed to have ironed out a solid way to approach it, but I was also new to the site and didn't yet understand that this wasn't as novel as I thought to some of the seasoned hounds here. In hindsight if I knew then what I know now, I wouldn't have posted it like I just discovered fire and instead would have probably been much more playful with the article. But the question also presumed two things: (1) that there was something fundamentally wrong with the core elements of the article; and (2) that I take this discussion board seriously enough to care. On the first point, 13 years later I've seen as many girls OTC as anyone on this board, covering clubs in 14 different states. Needless to say I hardly need affirmation to tell me that what I do works for me, even as it has evolved over 13 long years. The second presumption is that I care whether someone trolls my old articles. I don't. The other night was the first time I ever knowingly exposed myself to anyone who could definitively connect my screen name to a face. I come on here almost exclusively to re-live my various club adventures. This is shits and giggles time, not something to be taken so seriously, lol. A couple of years back, someone PMd me and indicated that he was concerned about posting light reviews because it could hurt his "cred." My response was as follows: πΏπ‘œπ‘™ π‘Žπ‘‘ "π‘π‘Ÿπ‘’π‘‘." 𝐼 π‘‘π‘œπ‘›'𝑑 π‘Ÿπ‘’π‘Žπ‘™π‘™π‘¦ π‘€π‘œπ‘Ÿπ‘Ÿπ‘¦ π‘Žπ‘π‘œπ‘’π‘‘ π‘‘β„Žπ‘Žπ‘‘.

    "Cred", as in "credit", only matters if you've got someplace or some way to spend it. Near as I can tell, the only way to do that on TUSCL is when you reach out to someone via PM for recommendations about certain clubs. Particularly useful if you travel a bit want some insight from other experienced members in that area. It's also possible, I suppose, to use it with dancers (I believe that was the original intent behind "Verified" status here). I haven't, but there are guys who have met up with dancers via TUSCL. One has to imagine that the dancers will look at posting and review history before scheduling a meet to get a read on a guy's vibe, but who knows. There are guys on here that I take more seriously than others when it comes to strip clubs. At the same time, I've taken some advice from relative newbies here and it worked out well for me. And then there's the guys who've got tons of experience, but I still wouldn't follow their advice if it came to me on a gold platter. Ultimately, we're mostly guys (and a few women) who post probably more than we should to an anonymous strip club forum. I'm not sure that I'll ever worry a ton about my cred with people I don't know.

    13 years and 14 states of being a trick isn't having cred. Nor anything worth bragging about. You give a hooker money and she does the sex act you agreed upon. There's no system or cred to it.

I know I’ve done lots of low-blow types of jabs over the years, so I can understand the confusion. (I can’t help it, I’ve been shitposting on the internet since like the age of 12) But it’s just been trolled so hard over the years, that I guess I was trying to figure out whether you would have done your part to: a) actively encourage all the flame wars or b) you would have re-written it in a way for there to be less β€œammo” or c) refrain from publishing it at all, but I guess in retrospect that wouldn’t have been a possibility at all ever lol Plus, if the whole thing from me was a jab against the whole practice of the core elements, doctorevil probably would have had some negative choice words to say to meβ€¦πŸ˜…

    C’mon man, the best thing about your early contributions was that it produced fodder for Dougster to bash you every chance he could. That provided loads of entertainment for all, and I’m sure Founder even appreciates it. We all have our own system, and you run yours for what works for you. Not everyone is playing with the same hand, so we make due with what is dealt. I’m still amazed that Robert Kraft got busted for the same price point as San Jose Guy!! Now that’s a fucked up system!!

    That's the problem with posts about extras, it's pretty much impossible for them to have any cred. Since it's technically illegal, one can't give enough details to make it easy for anyone to verify the availability of what the post claims happened, by seeing the same dancer or at least going to the same club. So it's an irreproducible result, as scientists would say. Basically just a brag, as believable as dancer brags about how much money they make. It's another example of an advantage of escorts over extras strippers. There are detailed reviews of escorts that identify them by work name. Escorts aren't thrilled about this, but most accept it as a way of increasing business. The same system hypothetically could work for extra strippers. The reviews would just need to omit any discussion of specific acts that occurred together with discussion of $. But, I don't think most extras strippers or clubs with extras would be OK with this.

    I mean we make fun of it but it’s always interesting how people go about things. Live vicariously in that way, try home your game a little bit to make your money and fun go farther. Even if I don’t agree with everything on here I like reading about different styles of the way people approach strip clubbing. I’d like to see update article on the system. It’s been over a decade it’s due.

    β€”>β€œBut, I don't think most extras strippers or clubs with extras would be OK with this.” Ick, yeah I remember after dealing with manager bs at one club, I decided to go do some shifts at another club that definitely had a stronger extras reputation from dancers, and the reviews on this site backed it up. And it was there where dancers made a bigger deal about how much money they made than the other clubs I had worked at in town, and they made it through their hustling ability. And also it was where I heard the most complaining about extras at one time. Oh, and it was there (unlike some of the other clubs) where management told me I needed to be more covered up on the floor because β€œwe like to leave things to the imagination here” πŸ™„ Very odd stuff. But social stigma is a biatch and can cause some really odd behaviors in people.

    ===> "C’mon man, the best thing about your early contributions was that it produced fodder for Dougster to bash you every chance he could." When Dougster posted something truly clever I guffawed as much as anyone. When he was on point it was some really good stuff; some of the best trolling I ever saw on this site. The problem is that 99.5% of his posts were repetitive thread clutter. It's like he shot his load with a handful of funny jokes and couldn't come up with more material, so he just repeated the same things over and over - literally for years on end. At times I truly thought he was on the autism spectrum.

    ^^ fwiw everyone is on the spectrum, so yeah I see your point is well taken. Once the guy was on point he wouldn’t let it go. We all were in a different place at that time, not as knowledgeable as we are now, however the entertainment he provided was priceless. What you’ve proven with your lates meet and greet with fellow members is that f2f is a different realm than an onscreen persona. Juice was the epitome of someone different online than in person. Rick your stance through tye Pandemic was often agitating to many (not me), but we all can agree a lot gets accomplished f2f that virtual life can’t deliver. Lock downs were at most limited in their impact.

    What I've always wondered is what percentage of dancers who do extras hid it from their SOs. Escorts can really hid it (unless they are hiding it that they do sex work at all). Maybe extras dancers would be OK with their work being praised on the Net, if their SOs wouldn't find out or were cool with it. On the other hand, "I don't normally do this" may be an effective bargaining technique. I think rickdugan's estimate of 35% who will do FS/extras may be roughly accurate for most clubs. Probably mush higher for some areas like Providence, RI. But, generally at least 50% of the dancers in a club are not attractive to me, and probably not to the typical PL who isn't wearing thick beer googles (or a whiskey butt tampon). And most or all of the 35% are typically among the 50%. So, in most of the US, a dancer who looks as good as nicespice can make good money without doing extras.

    2Icee (aka biggdumbass aka Eltriste aka Iceydodo aka PhatBoi) is extremely passive aggressive and argumentative. Also as a narcissist, she lives to be the center of attention and take a moral high ground over others. I think it stems from a deep insecurity and self loathing. So she has a need for constant self validation that she's better than others and she seeks this out constantly on TUSCL. It's done through either straight up bragging or through passive aggressive trolling and playing a troll victim. She clearly loves to get involved with trolling and bask in the attention from it. Her posts in this thread are a perfect example. 🀭🀑

An Internet discussion forum is about the only place where a mentally challenged person can "win" simply by firebombing a board over and over. A loser with no life and a mediocre mind can become outsized simply by devoting more time and energy to the board than those who have other things to do.

    Idk what’s up with the constant jabs around here about Icey working in food service. Employees tend to be pretty brutally micromanaged and in a lot of places cell phones are a no-go. And the upper management MO with most places is β€œlet’s predict what the customer volume is, and allow managers to only schedule just one or two people under what is needed to accommodate that so that people always fall behind on what metrics we give them and they have to work faster” I assume it’s just a classist way to demean Icey and nothing more. Because if Icey was actually working a food service job, and full time, the ability to post on this site would be WAY more limited.

Let's not denigrate food service employees by comparing them to Icee - at least they work for a living. My guess is that Icee is collecting government benefits, which are especially generous in CA. Disability payments, low income housing, free health care, food stamps, etc. This makes much more sense. He'd have all the time in the world to post in a strip club forum, yet not enough money to actually patronize clubs and understand what actually happens in them. Sound like anyone we know? πŸ˜‰

    The strength of The System (tm) is that he is no longer calling escort ads. He is meeting with his women f2f. And in the strip club he is not buying dances and being a chump. But the weaknesses are first that he is not really getting to know his women and being open to an ongoing relationship with them. He is as they say, "paying them to go away". And then he is not softening them up with front room makeout sessions, he is not trying to get under their skin at multiple levels.

    ===> "b) you would have re-written it in a way for there to be less β€œammo” or" The core elements <strong>were</strong> the ammo, so probably not. I might have played with it on the margins to be less of a lecture and more of a fun article, and maybe cut a few things that in hindsight look goofy (remember I was new here), but that's it. The fact that those core elements provided so much "ammo' says more about the ignorance of the trolls than it does about me. The apparel comments are what drew the bulk of the trolling but I stand by them as much today as I did 13 years ago. When one is an unknown traveler in a place where regulars and other locals are the bulk of a club's customers, blending in is not the goal if one wants enough girl flow to find a decent option for the night. I've actually tested this in several cities over the years, where I went in on a Sunday night dressed casually - because who would be in business clothes on a Sunday night anyway - and then back to the same club the next night in my work attire. Each and every time I got far more attention when I was dressed up. In a few cases, girls who actually walked by me several times the night before came up and asked "Is this your first time here?", lol. Now obviously times have changed over 13 years. For starters, pretty much nobody wears ties anymore and some of the styles have evolved. But the core concept remains the same: Someone who looks like he has money to spend is going to get attention. I don't do this stuff in my local clubs as I'm a known quantity who spends, but when I'm in a road club playing handicapped, I've found it to be a great way to overcome the unknown quantity issue.
