How to get the best from this section plus RULES for advertisers

[amy]

Posting a new topic

Whether you're offering or looking for something, you'll be most likely to get the response you want if you make your post noticeable to the people you want to make contact with. That means you should include all the essential information and put it in the title, so that anyone glancing at the topic list knows if your post is relevant to them.

Give your topic a title that makes it clear whether you're seeking or offering something, what that something is, and the location if it matters.

For example, "looking for a room in Sheffield" is a much more useful title than "incall room". "Driver available in Kent" is better than just "driver".

Advertising threads must be posted by the relevant person - no third party ads. If you're concerned about posting contact details on the forum, use a different SIM or email address.


Responding to a topic

Anyone can post here, but Advertiser members may not post outside their own topic. If we think something's dodgy we'll remove it, but these offers aren't vetted or endorsed. Take care.

If you want to respond to a post, try to do so in a way that will get to the poster. If they said "call me on this number" or "email me at this address", then do that. If they haven't specified a method of contact, look at the icons under their name. If there's a letter icon, you can click that to email them. If not then click the speech bubble to send a private message. Replying to someone's post is not a good way to make contact because they'll only see your message if they come back to the board and look at the thread.

If you are not a sex worker or somebody who works with sex workers but would like to sign up here to offer your services to our members, your account will be added to our Advertiser membergroup which limits your use of the SAAFE forum as follows:


You may post one thread to advertise whatever you are offering, and in the Spamming section this can include website links/URLs. Links may only be posted once, and not included in signatures or picture captions; duplicate links or touting in signatures will be removed.

Advertisers who are clearly promoting their commercial activities solely towards sex workers (agencies, advertising directories, webdesigners) should post in the Spamming section. Individuals offering a general business service (eg. accounting or driving) may use Seeking/Offering provided links are not posted and this section is not abused. If your post is not appropriate to the board, it will be moved - please check before trying to post again.

Advertisers cannot post on any boards other than those in the advertising sections, so members should report any non-sex worker posts made outside these sections. An Advertiser who may have a warning to post should contact SAAFE admin via email.

Advertisers cannot receive, send or reply to private messages, so it is important that your post makes it clear how members can contact you - you can add an email address to your profile or post a phone number if you prefer. Do not post responses to private messages on the public board. Full members, please contact an advertiser by the method which they have requested - if there is a phone number or email address, use it rather than posting responses on the board they are unlikely to see.


The SAAFE site and forum is an independent non-profit making peer support and advice resource and not a free advertising space - any duplicate posts, thread bumping, spamming (including digging up ancient threads for no reason) or otherwise pointless attempts to boost your profile will be removed.

Please also see the general Forum Guidelines here. Any queries regarding advertising on this forum can be emailed to the address on the main SAAFE site.
