How about a board devoted to providers who fail to show for appointments?..................

A girl can have outstanding reviews and still be a flake because there is no way to write a review on a provider who fails to show for an appointment.  Reviews are only written when they show up.  I had a no show today and it was very aggravating waste of time.  If I had known she was a flake, I would never have scheduled an appointment with her.  Showing up is as important as performance.

We have been kicking ideas to staff for quite some time now. Possibly this one will fly. This way all parties involved can have their say.

The format could be very simple.  It would only require the providers name, telephone number, email address, website, and a narrative explaining the circumstances of the no show.  The narrative should include how she was contacted; where the meeting was to take place; incall or outcall; if she contacted the hobbyist with an excuse; if the hobbyist contacted her regarding the no show and the reason(s) she did not show.  If she is a well reviewed provider with one no show due to car trouble, etc. then the entry should have a very minimal negative impact on her.  However, if she has several entries with a variety of excuses, it would provide the necessary information for the hobbyist to make an informed decision regarding meeting her.

There is a very highly reviewed provider in LA who has a troubling history of no shows.  I had no idea of her flakey behavior until I contacted some other hobbyists who have been burned by her no shows.  However, there is no documentation to warn future clients of her propensity for not showing up.

A provider could have the highest ratings in appearance and performance on the board, but if she is a habitual no show, I would not contact her.  I would rather deal with a provider with less glowing reviews, but who is dependable.

I am not sure a separate board would be nearly as beneficial as posting it on the appropriate city board.  This allows both the member and the provider to give their sides to the story without changing her performance and appearance ratings.unfairly.

It would be very difficult to research a provider's attendance history on a city board.  A separate board with a very simple format would make it as easy to verify the attendance record as the general review board.  I am not sure how difficult it would be to establish a separate board, but it would be a valuable resource when deciding who to meet.  For some reason, no shows seem to be on the rise.  Reliability is a major factor when I am making a selection.  All of the other positive attributes are overshadowed by a history of missed appointments as far as I am concerned.

I have had problems with visiting providers, that seem to only have no shows while they are touring. All of the reviews they recieve in their home area are glowing, yet while they are on the road they loose all responsibility, overbook, get nervous, who knows, they never offer an excuse..

Also, in the new england area, some of the providers are listed in Boston, New England, Other, or New York, this can be a little difficult to track someone, and would lead to posting on multiple city boards.

Possibly a 100% moderated board so that no unwarranted info is posted?

I'll take my beating now, as I know Staff and all the moderators are already overworked. :^)
