For those gentlemen who do not mind filling out "forms" on websites like mine under "reservations", which asks for basic info about yourself and the type of session you are seeking with me.
Would you fill even more comfortable if that page was "secure" with a SSL certificate?
Would it also encourage those to submit who normally do not fill out these forms?
With all the personal info, and names outted publicly (newspapers, TV) in the last few years by providers and agencies, a guy would have to be a fucking fool to fill out that shit. No offense to you Kianna - just venting. Forms are also grossly impersonal in what is supposed to be a personal business. I won't fill them out never ever. I have many dozens of references, and have been around a long time. I've never filled out a form, and I see pretty much everyone I want to see without that ridiculous crap.
I agree with beenstrokin, this is a hobby and that too a UTR hobby, I don't want to share such info, no matter how hot is the provider, I have references and I know my way around these neck of the woods, if a provider refuses, I move on.
Mostly though, providers are happy enough with my ter record or whitelist, but some have probed for more and I have shut the door on them. That makes me wonder, lets just say if I am GIVING all the info, then for "safety", provider should give all her info too, now how comfortable do they feel? Once a provider asked me for my drivers license at the door, as soon as she opened it, so I simply said you show me yours and I will show you mine, her face showed how uncomfortable that made her, she didnt neither did I and walked away.
As long as its a two way street I am in, but otherwise, dont ask for it!

I got an email from a gentleman yesterday stating he would not fill out the form because it was not "secure".
So it made me think about it...I then contacted my webmaster to ask him for the info and what fees and costs it would entail. And there is a yearly fee for this option which I don't mind paying if it allows for a more comfortable situation.
Of course any information I have received is deleted automatically at a point. I don't need my inbox loaded with unnecessary mail. I have a hard enough time keeping up with currant emails...lol...
Because I work outside of this field and attend classes I have little time to take phone calls during my days. I also know I miss out on meeting some really nice men because of the whole "form" concept.
Sometimes I feel like I'm taking on "too much", but that's life.
Just had to respond as this is an interesting topic. The only reason we started using a booking form is to cut down on the back and forth emails asking for info for the screening protical. it is a tool that if used correctly saves time for both the provider and the client.
instead of opening your email and typing all your info some that might not even be needed. you fill out just what we need and its done. Its all forwarded to our emails anyway. In fact unless your constantly deleting your Sent email box...its safer for you the client to use the form cause there is no record of a sent email on your end.
I don't really care about filling out a form or sending an email, and in fact the form does provide an understanding of what the provider is really looking for for screening. However, when the form starts asking for last name, work info, etc, I just send an email directly with what I am willing to provide as I don't share that kind of info. Only once has a provider actually required everything that was in the form, and I chose to look elsewhere.
You'd be surprised how many providers who require screening will get into an email exchange with you and drop the requirement, usually due to an oversite on their part. Once they become comfortable with you, the screening seems less necessary. Sometimes I'll start an exchange very simply, with just one question. Then, when they ask for screening info, I'll say, "Just so that we don't waste each other's time, can you tell me if you offer "x" services (without getting graphic or vulgar, of course)?" This opens up a discussion, usually. Then I'll drop the thread for a while and a few weeks later pick it up again. Often, they see a long thread and either figure you've already been screened, are a repeat client or simply need the business and accept the booking.
Got no problem with the forms but definetly should be SECURE!!!
I actually prefer the form if it's simple.....obviously screening info should be included whether White list/p411 etc but not a big deal.
I hate to burst anyones bubble, but it's much easier to have a form so you give them all the info they require the first time to make them comfortable that youre okay.....as long as it's short, to the point, and NO Personal info is required.
