Possibly. Idk the guy but even if he didn't contact her via Eccie does it mean he should have been treated any differently? Originally Posted by Seeking ~PNot at all.

I fail to understand why so much communication takes place by text when at least a brief PM exchange would help protect a Hobbyist or provider when something of this nature occurs. Sure, texting/calling is absolutely necessary, especially en route and upon arrival, but should it encompass the entire appointment discussion from start to finish? There's a lesson to be learned here.
