Is Bedpage out for good?

[moneymalore]

It's literally been on "site on maintenance" for a couple days or so

The few times I looked at Bedpage, I felt like I was peering into a Disaster Zone.

Just what seemed to be a lot of issues with the advertisers there. More than a few bad stories related to Bedpage from review sites.

who cares about BP - it is terrible - a lot of fake profiles

The fake ads are pretty ez to spot. USA listed as location. Out of area zipcodes. XXX pics. Ridiculously low donations...etc. l've found a few gems in the Brooklyn section.

The other site with issues is Skip The Games. I remember the old days and having decent luck on Backpage, but these sites today are so infested with what can only be described politely as false advertising that they should be avoided.

I think STG and BP are both terrible. Fake ads and false advertising. I tried it couple of month and i will not go back to both sites. Avoid!

I'm not sure how many of the ads are fake but there are authentic providers on both sites. They have been reviewed here and I have seen a few.

True. I think the percentage of fraudulent ads has gone up, but you can still find decent providers. It does take time and research. I try to cross-verify. I look at more established sites and boards to see if the provider is also on those boards. There is a history of some great providers starting out on the bad sites and eventually making their way to the real boards.
