Good grief. You guys complain if a lady responds to too many ISO's and then complain when we aren't available at the drop of a hat...

As a long-time P411 member, I want to ask Wile E. Coyote and Bossy Wilson how they would know if all these ladies allegedly abusing the Available Now board are not really available to meet? To know what you claim to know, you'd have to be checking the Available Now board every hour. Do you spend your day studying the ad posting behavior of P411 ladies?
I just checked the board, and I see that one lady isn't available until 1:00 p.m. But she has posted on the Available Now board. But she isn't available right now. Glad I don't care.

Now, which do you think Gina's intention was for creating that app? Maybe she can answer, but then again come January, it is a mute point anyway.
As sometimes it happens that plan A did not work out, for plan B and I want to see a provider I have not seen before, I do check it from time to time and on occasion have even tried contacting providers who posted an ad on there and more times than not I get "can we do something this evening or tommorrow?", some other reason why they are not available now or the dreaded no response back at all, which indicates then they are not really available much less NOW.
Since you are a p411 member, according to Gina, in order for the ladies to have a free account on there, they are at the very least strongly encouraged to reply to all inquiries, even it is to just say, "no thank you". And if they just posted an ad, then that response should be pretty much in a few minutes or at the very least within an hour.
I do see the ads on there that they are not available at the time of posting, but later on in the day, which as Kendall said, the guys do not see the options the ladies see,
but from the client viewpoint, an available now ad means that she is available now. That does not require an expert analysis and is very straight forward.
As I also said, about 98% of my meets with providers have been scheduled in advance, so I do not care much about available now ads either, but for the purpose of this thread, I am giving my opinion on the subject of it.
