Spinner

Yes I have seen TMT both socially & privately as far as TMT writing a review of our time together he is not allowed to since he is a TER mod. I think the white list works to the gentleman's benefit. It will make it much easier to screen gents I think because if a lady approves someone on the White List he must be an ok guy, right?

There you go again making some assumptions.

First of all as Nico has put iy, she HAS seen TMT and you are assuming not.

AS TMT has pointed out, it is a source for screening. Is it the only source? Of course not. Again, as Nico states many of the professionals will do more than look at that white list for their safety of comfort level prior to commiting.

Since you name dropped, what makes you think I only saw the one lady two years ago. Have you ever seen a lady more than once? Have you seen her also socially as well from time to time? Do you keep in touch with many of the ladies you have seen? I would suspect from every posting that we see from you, that you keep in touch with many for long periods of time. That is all a good thing, for you and maybe other providers that may look at your white list.

You right I don't think I would want someone on my white list that is not a great provider, nor would she want to be if she did not like me either. It works both ways. They can also remove themselves some day if opinion changes.

As for the fine lady from the Lone Star, I can assure you she knows many providers and hobbiest alike in Las Vegas. The reasons for the exchange between you and her are personal in nature. Perhaps, and I say this in contrast to your theory, just perhaps had she just seen your long list of Spinner girls on the white list, it may have been a done deal. Maybe not totally, because again she may use many other sources for screening and this is but one.

I will agree with you on one thing. I agree that you are "maybe reading way to much into this"

If I see a lady today or tomorrow, I see nothing wrong either with asking then or maybe later after I come out of the comma, to be on my white list. We all remember the very first time we had an experience with no references. Hard hobby for some to break into, when there is nothing.

Nothing is perfect. Enjoy the ride. Lets revist this when your list grows to 50 on your white list. I want to get your opinion again. Okay

I'll do it too...
Here is my post from the general board.  
__________________________________________________

I don't know about who one sees, sees socially, or whatnot...and it does seem that the White List, and reviews for that matter aren't gonna tell you that...but in defense of Mr TMT...since he is a Moderator, he isn't allowed to write reviews, so any ladies he has seen since becomeing a moderator, will not have a review from him.

The ideal benefit of the white list might actually come in the form of moderators, and others that don't write reviews for whatever reason, getting a nod from ladies they have seen since they won't have reviews to show they are "OK" clients.

For the guys like you and Mr Smarty, you can have a White List that contains nods from each lady you have reviewed (those that are still working)...but does that actually add anything to you or the lady's credibility?

As to the idea of clients asking to be white Listed...I don't like it, I don't like it any more than I like ladies asking to be reviewed, it puts someone on the spot...like a client that gets asked to reveiw a lady may fear she won't see him again if he doesn't, or if the review isn't the rating she wants...so could now ladies be put on the spot to White List a client for fear he won't see her again, or that he may be less than kind when referring (or not) her to others, and that can cut into her business...I think both reviews and White Listing should be done at the discretion of the client and provider respectively, without anyone calling, writing or asking at the end of a session for it to be done, and if either chooses not to for any reason it shouldn't be seen as a negative or used against them.

In the same way that I trust less reveiews of ladies that ask them to be written, I would trust less the "recommendation" of a lady that was asked to make it, and it wouldn't make me think the client that great a guy...but that's me.

Biggest downside i see to a White List is corroboration of reviews, that a lady placing a client on a white list has the effect of her saying "yes, I saw him as a provider", couple that with a review and all the "juicy details, and that can make a pretty good "case" for she did what the reveiew says..not that anyone would actualyy use that against a lady in any sort of proceedings or anything.  *smirk*

Best use for the White List I can figure is a statement of sorts from the ladies that put someone there, saying "He's not LE or a psycho...or at least wasn't when I saw him"...and shouldn't be used in place of normal screening, and shouldn't be looked at as a TER meber on the White List, no matter how many ladies have added there names to his list, as being more respectable, having more pull, more weight or more influence...just like a member with 75 reviews shouldn't be seen as more of an expert, or having more pull with other members or ladies than someone with 10 or 5 or none for that matter.  

The White List is just one more thing that could be beneficial if used correctly, and useless at best, misleading and dangerous at worst, if misused...just like the boards and just like reveiws.  *grin*

You will have to be a white night or promise to see the provider again. I have seen one instance where a client did not even post a review on the provider and she gave him a referrel.

I don't think you should have to ask or whine about not having any referrels. Just sit back and wait.

This feature is going to have a whole lot of dynamics. I have already seen instances of where there has been some unsolicated contact from providers to a reviewer because he has seen a certain "Popular provider". The provider knows the popular provider has "good screening" techiques. I expect more of the same with unsolicated requests to a potential client with this new feature.

Like I posted before the dynamics will be interesting.
