   Eric Sano, commander of the Seattle Police Department's vice unit. The vice unit launched its elaborate investigation after receiving numerous community complaints about prostitutes advertising on craigslist, Sano said. Undercover detectives arranged for escorts to meet them in a downtown hotel room on Oct. 19, Sano said. Detectives arrested seven women and a 16-year-old girl who made clear they expected payment for their sexual services, he said.
   
   Vice detectives then turned their attention to men who, instead of cruising the streets for prostitutes, respond to online ads looking for sex, he said. To make their ads believable, Sano said, female detectives were photographed in flirty poses, phone lines were established and appointments were set up. Police discovered "a complete subculture" where men call themselves "hobbyists" and refer to the women they pay for sex as "providers" and even several online "review boards" where men rate their experiences and describe a woman's looks and the sex acts she's willing to perform.
