And to be honest I don't even recommend it over there either.

For the record, the statement I made that started this mess has absolutely nothing to do with "politics".

Mokoa's 'angel' comment is not political either - it is simply a behavior comparison.
References regarding an individual without including anything related to policy/governance, is not politics.
Meanwhile, back on topic...Mandles and privacy of private forums.
I take everything I read on here (Coed and ML) with a very large grain of salt.
Some guys and gals are straight shooters and respectful; others, not so much. Guys and Gals both need a private spot to vent their frustrations about the hobby in general, some of the participants in particular, and most importantly gain information to guide their decisions on who to see and not see. We don't need Mandles, Bandles and other such categories mucking up the works. Are these forums perfect, not by a long shot.
At this point, I will not normally see any lady who has not previously been highly recommended by one of the few hobbyists who's opinions and comments I trust. I also get some good recommendations from some of my Long-Term Favorite ladies who make suggestions of other ladies in the hobby they feel I should meet. Go figure, it's more than just about competition for sessions.
My other source of new ladies are acquaintances that I make at some of the CK socials--just as an FWIW, there is a social on Wednesday this week. After people meet face to face at socials, it's a little more difficult to be "keyboard" warriors and disrespectful to people they may again meet in the future.
At socials, I like to meet new ladies and renew friendships with ladies with whom I may not have able to see for some time. Social networking at CK-socials works both ways: One, I get to meet a new lady, have a little conversation and determine if she is someone I would like to meet BCD, and two, the ladies have an opportunity to do the same with respect to meeting me BCD.
That way, neither of us will be unhappily surprised when the door opens for our first session. No one likes surprises in the hobby.

Wow! I dunno what to say, but Thank you! And I will never forget the vulnerable human moments we shared. :) I won’t elaborate. I have plenty of flaws though, like being a pain in the ass to schedule with, at times. I digress! Back to mandles! If anyone thinks ANYTHING is sacred on the interwebs, much less here... you’re being naive!
As long as my clients are happy, I’m happy. I think people should just be more honest with their provider/client, if it’s safe to do so. How else will you improve? But that’s just me. And there is a way to communicate these things in a healthy manner, with REASONABLE providers and hobbyists, alike. I have more respect for someone who comes to me and tells me I’ve pissed them off or they weren’t satisfied etc. That gives an opportunity to try to make it right. But whatevs. Mandles, bandles and pillow talk will continue to happen. That’s why I stay in my lane and just do me.
Hi Ellen,
I know it wasn't me. I miss you and you beautiful mind. Hoping life is being good to you, you deserve all the happiness in the world can give you. Take care and have a wonderful day, Sweetie. Ron, your favorite remodeler.
Yes, I understand what the word "politics" mean. I'm very political, just not here. Unfortunately, when you mention Trump it triggers some sensative folks so I tried to stop it before it went further. And you are correct about Mokoa - he was just doing a comparison - nothing more. Heavy sigh. Thanking you in advance for your cooperation.

You obviously missed my point entirely.
Compared to the miscreants I have seen act out on the boards over the years, Yes Trump is an angel. That is only my comparison based on my decade long experience and observations. It is not a political opinion and has nothing to do with his politics or anyone else's.
