Hello all!  
 
We had a quick question and really would love any input you could give.  When we had more availability, we had an assistant (that's another story for another time, lol).  However, we really can only session maybe once or twice a week now between Betsy at school and me with life - but we find we connect with adventuring with others so much.
 
So we started to accept Rs2K only, and are kind of shocked how many people write us anyway and say no they won't do it.  We are leery of it - RS2k has been around a while, no?   It really is the only way we are comfy, and we don't want to screen ourselves.  
 
Are there other services than RS2K that we can add?  Because we are really rather under the radar and don't have any provider friends.  We tried to get access to the provider only board, but apparently we don't post enough on the boards for them to let us in - that's what they said.
 
So now, we are asking all of you!    
 
XOXO,
Elle and Betsy

Staying UTR can make things difficult sometimes...

I use RS2K as well as Date-Check, and I know a lot of ladies use p411.

RS2K, Date-Check and p411 are the only friends we see!

so, I'm sorry to hear that you are getting notes from guys wanting to be clients that wont use rs2k.  I've heard nothing but good about that service....so, not sure why they won't use it.

See if you can get on p411....I'm not sure how that works for a lady to get on there without being vouched for by another lady....but they must have something in place for that screening method, and set your "preferences" to people with a certain minimum of okays....    

You mention not being able to get on the provider only board yet.....if you are primarily wanting to get on there to aid you with screening...well, that is a *Minute part of being on that board.  Micro-*Minute.     So, you're not missing the "screening boat" by not being on the provider only board.
I'm assuming your desire to be on there is for Posing a question on such as this....and doing so there would certainly get you some excellent feedback and suggestions.  I have picked up so many useful business ideas from that board.  Excellent resource for that.

Having one method of screening only is certainly the easiest way to go if you no longer have an assistant..... I can understand why you no longer "need" one.    I just had a flashback to what my hobby and personal life were like "pre-assistant" days....    It was not a most pleasant experience, very time-consuming and left minimal time for personal activities.   As much as I like to type and check email, there are other activites I'd MUCH rather be doing.

Like bowling

I have been a member starting in 1999 its very easy, the only issue in the times of cell phones changing all the time trying to keep updated is a issue. But as far as safe I have never had a issue now I joined long ago was not much of a screening process back then but I guess once you've been seen is all they needed. I am also on this board for almost as long but very few take ter as a way seeing safe clients too bad . I know that is how a check out a provider I want to see- if see has reviews on here and the same phone I feel safe. that is my 2 cents

those that don't want to join don't realize how easy it is
most reputable provider in Chgo takes RS2K

i also accept other forms of verification though

am also p411

I see many rs2k clients, almost always super easy and sweet ppl too

very silly woman, in a good way.

Still got to find time to see you!

Damn...I've got to set something up! Heck, I just check flight prices to MSP as I don't want to wait 2 weeks til you get here!

I engage in the hobby on a very limited basis, so any provider referral I might have is several months old. So RS2K is really my only option in a lot of cases. Heck, I've been with them so long I remember when their business model was quite a bit different.

Maybe this is a bad assumption, but I always felt safe with them because they are simply providing a service of whether we say we are who we are in terms of verification. That is the only level of participation they have. Something they changed a very long time ago for the better.

The bottom line of this is all parties involved need to have a high level of comfort to participate, otherwise what is the point of it. If this is your comfort level, then stay with it.

I suck at bowling.  But I like it
I suck at Golf.  I don't like Golf.

I suck at other things I like though.

So, I'll just keep sucking!

hahahaha

But I'm a very good driver.

Is that the type of client you want.

I am sure i will get bashed for being on the ladies side here but we all deserve to feel safe.

RS2K is a nominal cost and they do not ask more than most ladies that screen carefully.

I would rather have my info in one place than in the hands of several ladies.

I think you have every right to set your screening policies and if people don't respect that then maybe they are not the type you want to associate with for your safety and piece of mind.

I have been on RS2K for many years BECAUSE there was a lady I wanted to see that only accepted RS2K.  If a guy really wants to see you, he will make the effort.  Otherwise, maybe just shopping around and looking for a reason not to pull the trigger.

Silly... absolutely

Making time is easier than Finding Time.  

Heck I can never seem to Find Time to do anything.   But when I Make the Time, THEN I get lots  Done!!

 

Can I get a w00t-w00t
