I'm with Wheretonow and as he stated I also have to put in a 80 plus mile drive to see a provider. Which means I most always book my appointments several days in advance. It is a major pain in the ass when there is a NCNS or I am in Dallas and had time for a hour break and cannot set up an appointment.

Your choice not to name her, but in that case you're just whining without providing ANY useful info. Worthless thread without a name.

Chelsea Simms-
For whatever reason the forum owners have decreed that reviews have to be a physical encounter, and NCNSs have to be submitted to one of the other threads. As you've experienced, NCNSs are still sometimes submitted as reviews, where many of them stay.
If (as I believe they are) reviews are intended to be used to determine if you want to see a particular provider, it would seem that an element of that evaluation would be the provider's NCNS history. Anyone who has tried to use the ECCIE search engine will verify that it sucks. It "or's" the terms entered instead of "anding" them; i.e., if you enter "NCNS" and "Jane", the search results will give you all of the posts that have "NCNS" AND all of the posts that have "Jane" in them.
Most search engines would at least put the posts that contain both terms 1st, but not our beloved ECCIE. I have complained about this to the moderators several times, but they have never responded.
So, in summary, ECCIE moderators could allow NCNS posts in the review section, but don't; they could flag them to a provider's reviews, but don't; and/or they could improve their search engine performance, but don't.

If so, maybe your post will be especially informative. If not, try to see a few more providers. If you see enough of them, it'll eventually happen.

Worthless thread without a name.Did you actually READ any of this thread or are you just locked on BITCH mode? There is a lot of info about what happened, as well as (in two posts) an offer to PM the provider's name to anyone who wanted it. The other half of the glass is full.

Why is this even a thread? Either name the girl or don't tell us a story that has no point.
This is a hobby forum, not a place for you to vent useless information. Sounds harsh because it is. You could have made it all up for all we know. No one is going to PM you a month from now to figure out who the girl is, you're supposed to put her name in the post so it shows up in a search. So, this helps no one but yourself.
...and by the way, ventilating, bitching, whining, complaining...they're all synonymous.

As you've experienced, NCNSs are still sometimes submitted as reviews, where many of them stay.Wheretonow has it all correct above. This is my biggest problem with ECCIE. It limits the usefulness of this site. I pretty much view ECCIE for the value of the back channels with some members, and the Ad's in the forums. I had high hopes here, but I'm learning this place has the same problems as most of the other review sites.

I may be confused, however, I am under the assumption that guys were able to post No Call No Show threads in the review section. Just not as a review. I could be wrong though. If so, did you post a No Call No Show Thread. Naming the provider. It will not be linked to the providers review tab, however the search function is still available.
Sorry about your misfortunes.
Providers also go through the same thing, If I may add, more so than the men.
Also Chelsea has a point, why not for everybody, also what if, a guy post a No Call No show review and it never happen. That is a red strike on our profile. Sure we can post in the powder room, not every lady has access to it.
On the bright side, there are many other ladies here in Dallas with good reps. One providers loss is another gain.
Happy Hobbying. :-)

Chelsea Simms-I do not believe you are going to get the mods to budge on that as far as allowing NCNS reviews to be added to a provider's review history.....but here is an idea.......

But if you do not name her, (except through PM) then we all lose on the situation as opposed to just you.
Just a thought.

BTY I got a PM from another member who was NCNS'd the night of the Mavs' victiry by her as well.
Back to the search engine thing: if the provider has more than one name (as this one does), your search is further complicated by getting all of the girls who have either name. For instance, if her name were "Mary Jane" (which it isn't) you'll get all of the 'Mary's" and all of the "Jane's".

If you came on here to vent that's your prerogative. But as you can tell you got thrown under the bus, and the bus ran forward and backward over your body several times.
These guys want to know who did it, but it's your right not to divulge that information in open forum. And it's their right to express their displeasure.
I think it's time for you to ask a mod to close this thread. It's getting pretty ugly.

I actually take constructive criticism fairly well. It's just caterwauling comments from idiots like you I don't care for.

The replies on this thread were mostly constructive thus far, sure...its more akin to tossing you in the water in order to teach you how to swim rather than hand-holding, but thats how it is sometimes. Just like you get to express your opinions, we get to express ours as well. Seems like you didn't get much agreement.
Resorting to name calling aids no one. Have a good day.
