does anyone else hate the new EROS.com look ?

Allanah, that's just the conclusion that my friend and I came to -- keep the text brief (200 words or less). Which I think is a shame. Besides, I think a lot of guys like me don't like to scroll through a tiny text window like that. Poor layout, though with some good choices (like the stats being consistently placed: however, did I miss something, or is it so GG-biased that there's no stat for a TS's endowment? Similar to reviews on TER, which are heavily biased to GG escorts in format.)

Did you look at the VIP ads?

No sir - don't like it. But didn't like the older one either. lol

I don't particularly care for it on my PC, but the added bonus is that I can now browse Eros on my phone. Never could before.

There is a survey eros has provided on their site so everyone can voice their opinion. Maybe it will help them adjust the new format to make it more user friendly if enough people take the survey.

Eros sucks major ass now, and I emailed them about it. Of course, like they're gonna stop mid-stream and revert it back to the way it was just because:


I'm right and they're wrong.

Before, when you click on an escort's thumbnail picture, the entire profile and all pictures would appear at once. Walla! I could browse through all the ads in the categories of my choosing in no time. Now Eros has greatly improved the user experience on their site by requiring you to put years of wear and tear on your mouse in just one visit. Stupid assholes.

Now there's thumbnail previews for each image of the escort as well. Brilliant! Why not take the full ad theme that was convenient for users, has worked for years, and lets invest thousands of dollars on some macaroni and cheese eating punk HTML authors straight out of first year community college, and reface the website with a user interface that's cumbersome to navigate, and will compel our users to want to personally visit our home office, and rip our nut sacks off.

I wonder what idiot manager at Eros paid some HTML author(s) $20 to $40 an hour to reface the site resulting in an ergonomic disaster for users like me who don't have the time or patience to click on an average of 3 to 5 thumbnails per ad.

Say I want to look over all pictures for 44 TG’s in the Houston area. Let's assume they all have 3 pictures per ad. Now for those of you who weren't very good with word problems in math, the problem is simplified mathematically as follows:

44 ads multiplied by 3 pictures per ad plus 44 initial thumbnail clicks to see the 3 embedded pictures per ad … whew.

or

(44 X 3) + 44

Now let's solve this problem. Pull out your calculators.

click ... click ... click ... click ... click ... click ...

That comes to … 176 FUCKING mouse clicks for that one FUCKING visit to their lame ass site. Not to mention that now you have to scroll through tiny sub-frames in the ads to read their profile. Oh yeah, really smart. Take a full page ad, squeeze it into a 1 by 1 inch pane that requires me to wear out my mouse wheel as well, only to find that the information that used to be there is missing. Guess you’re little XBox generation programmer there was so fascinated by the genius of his new user interface, that he was too consumed to put in the actual content of the ad as well. Good thing you’re only charging an average of $100 per ad to the escorts. Guess that won’t bother them too much when they wonder why there’s been a sharp decline in clientele. Perhaps they’ll think they’re too ugly or something and it’s not your site. Perhaps all the escorts will quit their line of work, and get jobs tossing pizzas to make ends meet and Eros will have ironically cured America’s problem with prostitution once and for all.

If you didn't come to the conclusion that Eros now sucks, then you should be banished from the Internet, charged, convicted, then subsequently killed, and sentenced by God to eternal damnation in hell with the crack-whore-ass TG’s from BlackT-Girls.com.

Does this mean that I will stop using Eros?

Hell no, there's hookers on Eros.

Do people avoid driving their $40,000 and $60,000 vehicles, while carrying loads of cold cash, to troll for hookers because the neighborhood is bad? No. So, I'll keep browsing Eros, (the site should be renamed to Errors.com) even though I want to decapitate the HTML author who changed it, and have his head on a stake in my front yard so pissed off Eros users can lob their used condoms at it. There's no choice. I'm off to CompUSA to buy a case of spare mice for my computer, and Ibuprofen and a splint for my debilitated index finger. Figure with the new user interface on Eros, a case of 24 mice should last me at least two months. Only have 9 good fingers left though. Well I could always resort to using my toes. Then I could have my legs hiked up on the keyboard while the Eros Information Technology manager licks the crust from my ass while I masturbate on his thick cranium.

If someone from Eros reads this, how does it feel to know you spent a load of money on some snot-ball HTML authors out of junior high school who convinced your naïve ass on how to upgrade and improve your site that resulted in users concluding, "Yep ... they fucked the site up." Money well spent yo! Do you guys offer personal financial portfolio management services as well?

Other than that, the change didn’t bother me much at all.
