Assume you need a real name for 411?
I'm using RS2K and for some reason nobody's responding to me at all suddenly. The last 4 or 5 times I've tried I've heard nothing back. The only thing I can think of that I might have done that providers might look unfavorably at is posting some honest, factual, but not favorable, reviews here. I also haven't really been very active in the hobby, not sure if that's a factor. I realize there are some people in these parts that might be mean for the sake of it, maybe some provider just completely made up some shit because she didn't like me or something?
Can any of you give some insight, shed some light, or maybe give some ideas of what's going wrong?
Also, do you think getting a new verification method, and giving that and not RS2K might make this a thing of the past?
I'm not a VIP right now, so cannot look at your reviews. However, if they seem overly negative, yes you may be screened out over it. In this candy store, and with the resources you have here to do your research ... having several "not favorable" experiences may be indicating to the ladies that your expectations are much too high, that you are one of the gents who simply cannot be pleased, that you yourself might be somehow contributing to the lack of great experience (personality, hygiene, etc.), or, that you are simply not doing a good job of finding a match for yourself - and who wants to risk being/having the next "unfavorable" experience?
I'm not saying this is what is happening. However it is possible.
Alternately, it is summer and many people are vacationing and/or spending time with kids home from school. Some RS2K listings are not current. Some locals are under extra heat and have ladies a bit more leery of new contacts. All kinds of other possibilities are out there as well.
So my question - you've done several unfavorable reviews. Do you not have any GOOD references from your experiences? A lady or two who will tell another lady that you are a great guy to spend time with? Often, that will cut through any other uncertainty or hesitation a lady would have. If you don't have that? Well, either reevaluate the type of ladies you are meeting, or look carefully at the first paragraph I wrote... and be honest with yourself if any of it might apply.

.....but since I will be traveling to Chicago next month, I have given thought to advertising with them again.
Ladies, do you get a good ROI when advertising with them? Gentlemen, how often is RS2K your "go to site" when looking for company in the Chicago area? PM's preferred.

From what i can see, you only wrote 1 review back in 2011. You said you haven't been very active, so your references are probably not new. The ladies are on high alert during this time due to the crack-down. So, that may be why.

RS2K is not as popular as DC and P411. You have but one review here from 2011, and it was not a very favorable one, so I guess she would not be a good reference. I suggest you try P411, they will work with you to get you verified. Also suggest you get active on your local regional board, so the providers can see your personality. You might also read the self help center to get some ideas on how things are done nowadays.
I think it's unlikely that a provider would go to the trouble of making up stuff about you to put you in a bad light unless you did something to her that really pissed her off. They have more important stuff to do, but you never know.

If you have two solid provider references, we do not need to verify your real life info. That means you do not have to give us real life info, unless you would like us to do an employment verification. In which case we delete and destroy any real life information that may have been collected, as soon as your membership is approved.
Also, there is a free six month trial (no credit card needed, no strings attached) available to NEW applicants who have two solid references. 
I sleep better at night knowing our client information is safe, because we don't have any of our client's real life information.
Always,
Gina
