I think its very likely they will not pick up if the cv ad doesn't show them online.

My experience is that the only way to tell for sure is to call and speak to a girl's booker.  However, in my experience, many don't work on Sundays, so today is probably not the best day to try and schedule in any case.  But on other days of the week, I wouldn't interpret not being "Online Now" to mean unavailable.  Most of my favorites are/were never listed as "Online Now" whether or not they are.

Apparently an option the bookers can choose to use or not.  If you want to see somebody, you should just call to find out whether they are working or not.

For some of them yes it means they are not available. But some never show  online status so it doesnt apply to them.  Just call or text to see if they are available.

The online status only refers to whether or not they are presently logged on to TER.  It has NOTHING to do with whether or not the are asleep, awake, visiting another country or in the middle of LFK, DFK, BBBJ, CG, RCG, Mish or anything else.

They may well be sitting by there phone just waiting for YOUR call or email.  Ring or chat them up via email.  Ya never know.....

Means she is not logged on at that particular time(she might actually be with a client)

I have never ever paid attention to whether someone is online or not.  I just call and make an appointment if they are available.
