MTABSW,

Just an observation.....you've been on Eccie for 2 years, was on ASPD before that I think, have 17 reviews here, have a P411 membership and over 600 posts. Why would a provider waste her time and effort screening you? Seriously?

I know a provider that takes things like that in consideration plus reads a clients reviews and posts to get a "feel" of him.

Also, men don't always post the TRUTH of what they are like BCD. Maybe he does something BCD that isn't for everyone. Or maybe he has something that he really likes done in a certain way. I'd like to know those things, too.

The only way to find these kind of things out, is by screening. Just because someone can post on a message board, doesn't mean what they are posting is the truth, believe it or not.

Screening is anything BUT a waste of time. While posts should be taken into consideration, any provider who screens solely based on length of time in the hobby, reviews, and post counts, doesn't take this too seriously and will eventually figure out why that's a bad idea LOL

Well honey, please do keep in mind that some may not check your P411 profile. Maybe some ladies contact the ones you did reviews on. If they did that, you were screened. Just a suggestion.... Originally Posted by hotlips_houlihan

Even then she still may not know it. There are guys that keep handle separate from p411...

Ummm, not necessarily. Most times guys tell us what their handles are, and we require a gent to send us a PM from their account if they say they found us here.

If they don't give us that info or don't have a handle, we ask you send a request directly from P411. When you do that, it gives us a brief look at your profile. And if we see you have 40+ OKs on there, well ummm, really?

Dannie, you brought up some good points. Thank you!
I only see providers that subscribe to P411 so I guess its the same way.

The first part of your post sounds like a stereotypical country song. Wife leaves, dog dies, loses job. LOL

I can see that she may get comfortable if the guy has a long and steady presence on eccie and on p411 and maybe feel like she doesn't need anything more than that. However, even if she is completely comfortable without heavily screening me, I think is shows maturity and interest if she reviews my P411 profile. I've taken the time to put some of my likes/dislikes in my profile and I'd really like her to read those before I show up at her doorstep... just sayin...

Do keep in mind, a provider can call in to P411 and check your profile. Not sure what all they get over the phone. But, if they do, your p411 account will not show that the provider checked it. No idea if this is a common method of cheking your account or not. I guess there could be times when its the only or fastest way to check the basics
I have seen two girls in the last month that I saw with posts here whom I initiated contact by text message and the only time we chatted by voice was when they called to tell me what room they were in. OP, your incident is not isolated. We had a great session.

I have been on P411 since 2006 and I have never, ever called p411 to check a profile. Do ladies really do that? I'm being totally sincere; I had no idea providers call to check profiles, or that there was a phone number for this sort of thing. News to me, but that is great to know, Bubba! There have been lots of times that I have been on the road and in a location with a shitty wifi signal; I didn't know I can just call p411 and have 'em screen for me! Awesome!!!!!!!
YW. I am good for something sometimes :-). No idea what the number or process is, though. I am sure its on the p411 site or their support folks can tell you.
