One of the things I do when researching a SWer while checking her reviews is to see if her reviewers have more than one review and are white listed themselves be reputable SWers. I've always found it really weird when I come across someone who has a whitelist from a SWer, but hasn't written her a review. This has always been a small red flag for me. What do you guys think?

I thought a gentleman had to review for me to leave a white list reference.
Maybe the board admin could clarify this.  

Same! I'm not even really sure what the utility in a provider giving another provider a white list reference? An agency owner maybe, but even then...

and no, we can whitelist whoever we want as long as we know their screen name.  No reviews have to be given but it does help figure out who the guy is.   Should not be a red flag other then he doesn't write reviews or maybe just not of her

SWer = sex worker.

Sometimes they will review under an alias though, so that's kind of annoying.

Ok, that is cool.  I was just not putting that together.  Kept coming up with Street Walker and was wondering how reviewing them worked or looking for reviews on them.  Forgive me, knew about that one but had not really seen it referred to in abbreviated form...

Street Walker! Love it! You make me laugh! xoxo

All good, Sage!

A review is not necessary to whitelist a client.
