911's Guide to CR
1. Don't be a DICK, we know who you are.
2. If you haven't done this B4, try a guide service like POPS, seems to be a good guy.
3. Yeah, this ain't the U S of A, you are American respect this countries laws and and customs.
4. Have fun, I don't care if U payed $20 for what I payed $150, she swallowed for me and so on so forth.
5. Food, you can get whatever you need from fast food like MC'ds or 5 Star Fodor's, or soda's.
6. If you are a newbie read some and read more, Ace's guide is a good starting point.
7. Treat the women and men with respect, I say again treat the women and men with respect,
"you " are a guest in this country.
8. Remember, no matter what you do, you are going to piss off some CRT members no matter if you give free rim jobs.
9. Have phucking fun for christ sakes it's your vacation, money and time.
10. Write a trip report if you feel like it, some will like it, some won't.
11. For those of us who are American we are many different nationalities, I don't care if you are black, white, brown or somewhere in between, if you pray to God, Allah, Buddha or whoever, that's fine with me.
12. If you are a prejudicial MOFO stay home.
13. Did I say have fun???
14. Get to know some of the CRT brethern, some are good, some not. I am not here to judge,
I am here to have fun.
15. Tipping: have you watched "Reservoir Dogs" we all know Buscemi is a cheap phuck, if you are cheap in the US chances are you will be here. I, in my opinion tip accordingly.
16. Women: One man's 10 another's 2, we can go round and round on this for hours based on looks and performance, do watcha gotta do. However I won't diss you if you chose a 2.
17. Watch your Bro's back, even if you are solo and alone, take care of your bro's even if it means you will get into shit.
18. Hotels: On this I am prejudicial, I stay @ the SL, it is ground zero for me. I do like La Amistad,
I would not stay at the Hotel Del Rey, that's me, not you, if you want to stay there, go for it.
19. Massage Parlor's VS. other venues: Pandoras's Box, you might hear more on this than anything else. On my first trip my second experience was @ HLH, she was fantastic, Haven't seen her since and haven't done the deed at a massage parlor since. But if you like the type of service at one of these venues, partake by all means, twice a day or whatever floats your boat: See number 9 above.
20.Of this I am guilty, get out and see the real CR, Funny I have reccomended CR to many people and have yet to leave the "Gulch" on my trips.
21. I can't bring it up here, if you 4:20 and such be discreet.
22. One thing that drives me insane is drunk loudmouth "GRINGOS" I like to be mellow, but can you please keep it down a little.
23. Have I mentioned"Respect" to your fellow humans??
24. Posting on CRT, your gonna ask stupid questions, like me, your gonna get stupid answers, like me. There are some real characters on here that give good advice.
25. Treat the women, chicas and girls with respect, it is a reflection on us as a whole and remember what I said in NO.1
26. I am running out of Centanario 20XX and I am sure I have missed about 50 points but I am sure somebody on this board will correct me and slam me, but hey,
YOU DO CR YOUR WAY AND I'LL DO IT MINE!!!!!!!
Regards, 911 Driver

Thought you have had a few with the last couple posts....


Nice post this time, but left out Orange's post CR for Dummies (and Newbies), Not that Ace's is bad

viewtopic.php?f=11&t=16357

Great list!



I always tip well in the US, but I wasn't planning on tipping in CR, because I've read in several posts that tipping is not part of their culture. Do most girls expect a tip?

27. Don't post drunk.
28. Control your impulse to write stupid, snarky responses, UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE LABELED A DICK.

29. Never ever get between two chicas in CR. If they start some shit, smile and back away.

What they expect and what they should get are two completely different things. I only tip indy's when they go above what is negotiated. MP chicas will get a tip if they put in a good effort. But I'd never tip 50-100% like some maniacs on this board. Some guy recently reported tipping Relax chicas $25. Restaurants already add 10% service charge to check. If the service was excellent, I usually tip a little extra.

Locals don't tip for anything. Too many guys come down and want to play the big shot role and try to impress everybody by throw money around. Nobody's impressed. When in Rome...

It seems like tipping is in the gray area over there. Thanks Orange for clearing that up!

Tipping has been a controversial topic on here for years. People get real heated over it. Do a search for "tipping" and you'll pull up some threads. What I wrote before is my personal opinion and not any kind of a rule. Do as you feel comfortable with.

#30. Don't act like such a monger

thats a good list

31. You don't have to be so loud every phucking place you go!

Great Report.

Just to clarify one thing. The word "Allah" is not a name but a description. One God!

This is simply meant to clear ignorance of others beliefs.
I have and always will have one belief. That is that you simply to treat people the way you want to be treated. That is, as stated in the post that race, creed, color or national origin ain't no big thing. Always give it and you will get it most of the time.

Good point - you described the "Golden Rule" (Do unto others as you would have them do unto you) Be a better world if we all followed it - at least some of the time!

22. One thing that drives me insane is drunk loudmouth "GRINGOS" I like to be mellow, but can you please keep it down a little.


Amen - agree wholeheartedly - I call it preventable stupidity - sure, be happy, have a few drinks, have a good time - but when you start to loose it and get loud and stupid, time to switch to soda! You don't have to be drunk to have a good time.

very nice post hopefully the content will be a newbie review and a refresher course too.

#whatever: don't be a dick and sit and talk to a gal for 2 hours and then tell her to get lost when she has bargained down to $80, it give the rest of us mongerers a bad name. the clock is ticking, pull the phucking trigger.
