TNABoard

When a person needs a provider for the evening, it can be challenging to know where to go. Especially as hobbyists explore for the first time, knowing the process can be confusing and downright stressful. Since 2007, the reviews provided on TNABoard.com makes it simple to find the provider one is looking for, find them safely, and ensure that the exchange goes swimmingly, professionally, and without incident. Whether it’s one’s first time finding a provider or a person has been doing this sort of thing for decades, TNABoard is the place to be to get that fix.

Browse by region or state

When a person visits TNABoard, they most likely want to find a provider by state and/or region. TNABoard makes it happen, but it does so in a different way. While it's possible to click on one's state if it's available (not every state is represented on TNABoard), for those that cannot find their state, they will have to search by region/neighboring state. For example, in the United States members can broadly browse East, Central, and Western regions. To go to a different region, members can choose ‘Go west, east, central,’ on the top right corner of the page or select ‘Regional – East/West/Central.’

When browsing broad regions (i.e., when one's state is not available), members can go to the lounge, fetish discussions, etc. of what region. Live in New Mexico and don’t see a dedicated section for the state? Select ‘Regional – West’ to find what one is looking for. It can be a pain, but it’s the only alternative on the forum. Of course, the search function can help one find mentions of providers and the like in their state wherever they may be located.

However, for more populated states in each region – like New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania in the Eastern portion of the United States – members can search through state-specific posts, discussions, reviews, etc. While it would be helpful for all states to be represented, it's relatively easy to find a provider in your neck of the woods. It just involves a little digging.

Well-designed forum

TNABoard toes the line between a site that feels like a forum and a social media site. No, visitors are not going to get the same vibe that they get from powerhouse social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter. Still, it feels like a specialty social media platform one would find out and about on the Web. It's absolutely the best of both worlds, and TNABoard has nailed it. Great job!

User stats are good advertisement for the forum

While it may not have been originally used as a method for advertising, the stats on the front page of the forum act as good advertisement anyway. They are under the 'User Stats' section on the front page. Find it, and members can see how many users are currently online and the newest male/female members.

What’s more, these members are clickable. To the right of the box, the top users are listed along with the latest reviews below. It's an excellent way to see what's happening on the site and how many people are using it while letting members know that they're not browsing alone. Other members and providers are here, and they are posting and looking just like them.

Look at recent ads

This section is called 'My Recent Ads,' and it showcases the latest advertisement from providers. While most members probably will not be close to the providers that post their ads in this section (though if they live in a populated city like New York City or Los Angeles, the odds increase), it's still worth browsing and seeing the sites. The eye candy here is worth browsing for alone, so give it a look.

Easy to browse by region and state from the forums

Select the ‘Forum List’ tab below ‘Home’ at the top right of the homepage. From there, members can browse by region, state, and other off-topic forums (like politically correct). Members should select their appropriate region or state (if applicable) and see the kind of useful information they can find.

It is here that members can find useful information such as provider, fetish, and weekend posts along with last-minute offers/specials (referred to as LMA and LMS, respectively). It's a wealth of useful info that will tell members precisely whether or not they should pull the trigger on contacting a would-be companion or if they should continue searching for the right professional. Whatever kind of information a member is looking for in regards to a provider, TNABoard has it. And hey: they have plenty of good off-topic threads, too!

Simple to sign up for an account

One of the things that turn a lot of people off is the fact that it can be a pain to sign up for one of these forums. It can be a pain to sign up for an account due to the verification process and the like, though it's necessary. While TNABoard made it simple to sign up for an account, there was no verification process. Anyone can use a temporary e-mail service to become a member quickly - no verifications required.

On the one hand, the simplicity of signing up for an account is a good thing. On the other, anyone can sign up for an account. One doesn't have to use their imagination long to understand how this could become problematic. That's why members must do their research on potential providers and ask the community if they have experience with a certain companion.

Scam alerts in regional forums

Every regional and state forum has its section for scam alerts. These are called 'Alerts' and are designed to help members stay clear of providers that are scamming people. Before choosing a provider, members will want to look through their respective region and/or state and browse the 'Alerts' section to see if they identify them.

As stated, ask questions about the provider in the ‘Provider’ section for that area. It’s a good way to know who and what to stay away from. Judging by some of the horror stories in these threads, it’s a situation members will want to stay away from.

Post reviews and ISO (in search of)

Members can find these under their respective regions under 'Reviews' and 'ISO' (in search of). The reviews are what one would expect: reviews about the providers for each region and/or state. These are from other members that have had experience with providers in that area, and they want to share their feelings on affordability, looks, services, and so on. Judging by the language of most reviews, they seem 100% legitimate. Reviews are based on a five-star rating system with stats and pictures.

The ISOs are unique in that members can put out an alert that tells others members what they are looking for (like pregnant provider, other kinks). From there, members can inform them if there is a provider in the area that provides that. Members can then converse (through the thread or by PM) and talk about the provider in question. TNABoard is very much a community-driven forum, and that's the beauty of it.

Informative provider ads

It is unclear if all ads must feature certain bits of information. Still, the ads seen during this review showed links to read the provider's reviews, references/vouches, stats (hair color, eyes, age, etc.), a description, how to contact them (e-mail, pm, phone, etc.), if they screen (most do), and the details of the exchange. The best are informative and break down how to make it happen to the letter. This leads to member confidence and allows the best to stand out from the rest.

Subscribe to an RSS feed for most threads

Last but not least is the ability to subscribe to an RSS feed for many threads. RSS feeds are found on a lot of free tube sites, as reviewed on ThePornDude. It allows people to obtain new content without having to visit the site. It works the same way on TNABoard, though this is doubly convenient since most people do not want to visit an escort forum daily. Use a preferred RSS Reader and subscribe to each thread – it’s that easy!

Suggestions:

TNABoard.com does a lot of things right. The only advice is that they may want to add a verification process signing up to be a new member. The ease of membership is nice, but with so many bad actors on the Web nowadays, an added layer of protection would be welcomed.
