Providers must be getting to be more open about sending face shots and video prior to meeting.
Me, however, I have great reviews, I don't need to ensure my clients. Truthfully, I'm so annoyed by hobbyists thinking it's okay to ask for face photos! One should assume with high rates, they aren't going to get anything less than what the reviews say!Please, unless you've met me and I am very comfortable with you, don't ask for face photos. I like to keep it professional, and who wants all of their business out on social media? You never know what someone could do with a face shot of you! Just something for providers and hobbyists to think about..
Agreed, same goes for providers who insist on dl or work id, etc. A lot of guys have no clue what is TER or have ever read your reviews.

Well, there's the rub right?
I take great exception to those providers who insist on outrageous personal disclosure's (Work ID , dl, etc...), yet are unwilling to provide verification of themselves beyond a, "Read my reviews".
Umm, guess what....LE has been writing an alarming number of fake reviews of late to establish credibility of girls used for stings. Asking someone to rely on an 'anonymous' review while you demand everything LE would need to bust a hobbyist is ludicrous.
Here's how I'm seeing the hobbyist landscape transforming lately...
Provider:
1) I will not accept texts
2) I will not answer ANY questions
3) I will not send ANY pictures(of any kind)
4) I will not respond to email
5) I will not provide ANYTHING that will provide you some assurances I'm who I represent myself to be.
However, I want you to provide your name, phone number, drivers license, work ID, work telephone, your ss#, bank accounts, last 4 tax returns and first born son.
I trust I made my point.
Well put on multiple points.
...however. I wouldn't care so much what a lady's face looked like if her body made me wanna pay the price.
if a lady wasn't worried about potential clients seeing her face, she wouldn't blur it out. Women choose to blur due to discretion issues; if she's not willing to show her face on a website or in an ad, why would she send face images to a private email/phone and lose control of who could possibly have her photo?
I personally think asking for face photos (or any photos outside of those posted in ads or online) is crossing the line and in poor taste. Reading reviews, investigating websites, and using a provider's other social media outlets is more than enough. If a face shot is that important to a potential client, that person should choose a provider who doesn't blur photos. There are plenty out there.
I actually prefer the face over the body.
Seen many a lady because of their face, their welcoming smile, great personality, etc. despite their body.
Nothing worse than a girl with a great body and an attitude! Except one with a face that does not measure up to that body...
or have a lady sit on my face! The memory lingers much longer, and more fun!

I looked at your ad you posted the other day and in there you write:
"Any inquiries on photos, scheduling, ect. please email me at
[email protected] "
When you write that, then you should expect questions regarding photos. You say "any". So face photo inquiries would fall in to the "any" category You may want to be more specific in your ad that you're happy to send other photos but not ones that show your face. Then you can prevent yourself from becoming annoyed with our wonderful MN hobbyists.
It's clever to only post one pic on your website. Makes the guys hungry to see more! Brilliantly done!
Porti
Thank you sweetheart!!! I will most definitely change my ad from the "any photo inquiries" to be more specific. Thanks babe (;

Sophia
More ladies' web sites require us guys to become some sort of member before we can even get a glimpse of anything.
It appears to me that someone thinks her time in having to reply to requests for face pics is a waste, thus getting annoyed by it. Most hobbyists want to know whom they are seeing. Maybe state no face pics in the beginning of your intro or biography. If you look at Ms. Sophia's ad on the ad board, I can see up her nose it's that high in the air. I get you are pretty and have a good body, so do a lot of women. Lose the attitude because I haven't even inquired with you and I'm already uptight with your personality
I've never asked anyone for their pics or very detailed information other than the standard.
For me the main reason I haven't used full face pics anymore over the past several years is that I'm too unique looking and sometimes work in places where I'd be easily recognized, which had caused a few problems.
If people would just follow the simple rules of discretion when they see a provider in her real life and maybe, just maybe if our work was more accepted as a real job we wouldn't have to crop our photos.
It's perfectly understandable how one can get very frustrated by that & utilize this board to express that .

From her ad
Do we need to be specific about every single detail?
One should know it's suspicious to ask for a face photo.
And the risks are not worth taking in my opinion.
To have a colleague or even worse, a superior at your workplace
Come across a photo of you elsewhere, (who knows what a hobbyist will do with it)
Is not something I'm about to do. I'll be more specific and stay away from
Hobbyists such as Vorlon whom has always commented rudely on my posts.
Is there a way to block?
Please reply if there is!!
Vorlon's post was not rude. He just pointed out the actual facts. The exact same ones that Portia did and you were so overly sickenly sweet in your reply to her. This string has clearly showed: you are a high maintenance head case with an over inflated opinion of yourself. One can only imagine what a session with you would be like!! Ugh No thanks.

I'm sorry Sophia but your youth & lack of experience is glowing in this post. I in no means insulting you in saying this. Please don't take offense.
Gents (sorta sadly for them) are primarily visual. What visually attracts them will vary from one gent to another. As has been pointed out, some like a pretty face over & above all else. If you don't make it clear from the get go that is absolutely out of the question, naturally they will ask. I honestly don't think it's rude of them at all to ask for something you haven't specifically indicated is off limits.
For future reference, for a variety of reasons guys are going to ask unwelcome & inappropriate questions. I've found rudeness isn't a factor at all. Many times they aren't familiar with protocol as defined among providers & hobbyists. Then there's the fact that many gals are more than willing to send pics upon request. Rather explicit pics at that. Then there's those that fail to read ads &/or websites in their entirety or forget what they read when contacting you. None of these guys I mention are intentionally being "rude"
Understand this. You have the choice to ignore them altogether, or have a little patience with them. Ranting here with that cute lil red face won't stop the from asking.
Again I mean no insult to you. Just trying to offer some helpful thoughts based on my 10+ years of experience in this glorious hobby.
Peace & luv,

For once I totally agree with you LChayse.
As for Sophia, HER rudeness has caused her to be scratched from many of our (guys) lists - except for the DNS list. She's starting to have quite a few 'drama posts' (besides her NCNS little ranting recently) and I'm tired of her.

You couldn't be more wrong. Vorlon is probably the most level headed poster on this board. I hope you figure out how to block out those things you'd rather not see before you dig yourself a deeper hole.
I'm only responding to your very first sentence.
You're in a very different class than the OP - class and no class. That's why you continue to get new customers as well as have your regulars...whereas she'll be gone sooner than later hopefully. Or at least provide more, talk less.

I know myself and what I give, and bring to the bedroom...
I'm not conceded, only confident and apparently misunderstood.
Have a great day everyone! Xoxo

There's confidence and then there's bragadoccio... the voice of youth and immaturity speaking.
