Hello all! How does one go about deleting their profile?

I've dealt with graphic (legally liable) reviews, exaggerated reviews and even fake reviews. I just don't think it's in my best interest to continue to be a member of the review community, unfortunately. How do I delete?????

The "recommended way" is to contact Admin and politely ask to be delisted

 
A much faster and more effective way to get yourself delisted is to announce a "no review policy" on your ads/website, then file a problem report on yourself and voila, you'll be delisted in no time.

Before you pull the plug, have you done the usual list of +/0/- ? I'm not in Chicago, but if I was  visiting and I saw your ad AND your Profile, I'd be very tempted to make the call. If I saw your ad but no profile, I'd be moving on to see someone else.  
.
If you read the boards, you know how many of us TERers read and use the Reviews and Profiles. Many of us start our searches on TER (Ad Boards, Recent Reviews, Review Search) and only then do we look at Ads and Websites. Some start with their favorite ad site or ad mall but then look for a TER Profile before making contact.
.
Regardless of what is said, graphically or not, we are also reading between the lines just to get an idea if we can expect to have a good time or if it will be an hour of grief and disappointment.
.
I have no idea if Reviews are usable as evidence in any sort of legal setting. They are officially works of fiction, you know. Also, TER is in Europe, beyond the subpoena power of US law.  It's clear that Reviews are bothering you, but is it -10 annoying or -2 annoying? Is your Profile and excellent review history not a boon to your business? +10 boon or +2 boon?  
.
If you want to delist, you contact Admin ("Contact Us" link at the bottom of almost every page) and ask them to take down your Profile. You'll need the usual credentials to prove that you are you: PM from your TER account and, if you use email, use the email account linked to your TER account or Profile or both.  If you want to re-list and restore your Profile, you'll have to prove that you are you the same way: don't close your accounts or lose your passwords.  
.
Good luck!

If a provider has a no review policy she will automatically be delisted. As GaG said, that is the quickest way to get delisted. Right now you sort of have such a policy, but I would call that a "no review suggestion." Here are the words from your website:
"I ask that you refrain from  discussing the details of our encounters on public forums or review boards"

Why don't you just change that to something like: "I do not allow reviews discussing the details of our encounters on public forums or review boards."

Then copy that line and send that into TER on a "contact us" form, or problem report, and ask to be delisted. They will do it, because having a no review policy is automatic grounds for delisting. They may even do it with your current phrasing, but like I said, to me the words "I ask that you refrain" is more of a suggestion than a policy. Admin may look at it differently.  

Simply asking to be delisted as GaG and impposter mentioned usually does not work. They will tell you if you want to be delisted from TER you must also take down your website and all of your ads. If you are "listed" anywhere on the internet, you can be reviewed on TER, with the exception of a no review policy or violating TER rules.  

Providers have been voluntarily delisted when they retire, or for reasons like having a stalker, or legal issues, custody battles, things like that. However they had to remove their websites and ads also, which makes sense. Removing reviews while leaving up websites and ads is not an efficient way to hide from legal issues or stalkers or prove that you are retired.  

Think about your decision as impposter said. Are you sure you want to do this? If so it is actually really easy.
No review policy=automatic delisting.

Other providers have been tempted to leave a "scorched Earth" legacy when they leave TER, with a bunch of "fuck you's" that can't easily be taken back if you ever decide to change your mind about being listed here.

 
I too urge to think long and hard before leaving here. I understand reviews in general seem a bit intrusive and fake reviews in particular must leave you feeling violated, BUT you have great reviews and I can't help but  believe your reviews are at least partially responsible for a lot of guys contacting you. There are a LOT of providers to who I would simply advise "don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out" but you seem to be a quality provider who goes quietly about her business of making guys happy. I think it would be our loss and yours if you decide to leave us. The decision of course is yours, but personally I'd like to see you stay, and I am one of, if not the BIGGEST assholes on TER. lol

 
Whatever you decide, I am sure I speak for many here when I wish you nothing but good fortune.

Ma'am,  

Once you have thought this through and identified your issues and concerns, consider exploring a few workarounds or mitigation strategies. For example, say one of your key concerns is your safety. Maybe you feel that a reviewer mentioned services that you don't provide. There are several ways that other ladies have worked around that issue that could be considered. Can you sufficiently eliminate or mitigate risk and give yourself piece of mind?

Don't burn your bridges!

 
Within the past year or so, a couple of well-known Chicago ladies have delisted.... and then have later returned.    I don't know any of the details or circumstances, just that they asked to be delisted but are now back.    

 
So it is possible to change your mind, assuming you didn't go out in a blaze of glory.
