What is with wrighting out the numbers on backpage?

[Toadily]

Why do girls write half of their phone numbers out, eight one eight 555- one 2 five four, shit like that drives me nuts. I understand on craigslist you have to get past the censors but on backpage they don't care if you put your phone.

Just something that burns my ass. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ENH87E9JTZA/TjA96tCbinI/AAAAAAAAAEA/Pb7lv1HcRnI/s1600/gf.jpg

you should reply (in wrighting) to one of those ads with that question for an accurate answer

I've noticed this, and thought that if I knew more about computer programming, I'd invent a widget that decodes backpage phone numbers for easy entry into your favorite escort review site.

This is the exact reason why. It is to screw up robots. This already exists.

Million dollar idea there!

As someone already mentioned it's to defeat spambots.

That way the ads would not show up on google if you type the phone number.

Specially effective for providers that put many ads on the same number... ads that more often than not use different pictures (of different girls), more often than not fake.

It's a warning to tell clients that the ad is very likely to be fake.

Thanks, that is what one of the girls told me last night, they just change the number they spell out and it will not show on google.
The girls I was asking don't like it when out of town scam girls/guys come and place all the BS ads. Being in South Florida we get more then our fair share.

I think it is stupid. My ad is straight to the point, no fancy bullshit, no bells, no whistles, just an ad that tells you exactly what I provide ;)

[Rusty Eldora]

It also goes along with this kind of thing

_____(¯`'•.¸ ☆ ''H0T'' T*GiRL___ READY ★ ___2 ___ ★ PL@Y __ N0W ☆ ¸.•'´¯)_____ - 23

Yes spelling out is for robots, limit searches, and generally make it hard to call.

As if you were looking for intelligent customers instead of whacked out dingbats.

Yes I only respond to ads where the poster appears to be an adult with intelligence as well as attractive to me. You more than qualify on both counts.

HAHAHAHA well thanks hun :).

I don't need bells and whistle to make my ad look good, I've got a sweet personality, smarts, and a steamy body for that ;)

[eddymunster90]

I figured the girls did that so guys wouldn't go searching for them on review sites. I like to highlight a number and google search it to see what comes up. If the number is done in that stupid spelled out fashion then you just find their ad. If it's numbers you get lucky.

[francisfkudrow]

Here's an ad where they messed up encoding their phone number...

http://harrisburg.backpage.com/FemaleEscorts/sexy-hot-all-u-could-want-20/17374623

8 digit phone number... Too short to include the area code and too long to be without it.

Cos its the write thing, right?
