Providers that basically don't screen

Even though a provider may be verified on ECCIE, I still find it quite disconcerting when a provider's sole method of screening is to ask me via text if I'm LE.

That's it. Nothing else.

Am I overreacting by backpedaling as fast as I can from her? If her screening is as flippant and haphazard as she makes it out to be then I can't help but wonder what else she is sloppy about (and not the good kind of sloppy).

IDMT, babe you better run, run, run as fast as you can! Just think of ALL that could go wrong! You do not want a provider that doesn't screen because she could be busted at anytime!

I see both your points IDMT n Naomi. You would really be surprised at the number of Verified ladies that don't screen.

Yep!! Anyone can call or text a lady and say there BigDog from Eccie. Lady says Ok, what time and gives you the location of her incall. So, was I really BigDog or just someone that saw my handle and wanted to see Vertified Provider from Eccie?? Could I have been LE lurking on here looking to do a bust and picks a male hobbyist handle thats active in the regional forum and calls up Vertified Provider?

Well some people aren't so bright. That's in any field though.

To be honest, I've some of my best clients from BP and CL (when it was open to us).

There's ladies from all the sites who don't screen. There's local ladies here in Omaha that don't screen and I've had clients call me to tell me they're using me as a reference and guess what? No calls from the ladies. It happens when I tour also.

I'm quite surprised when I call a lady for a reference and she says she doesn't screen, goes with her gut or just looks at his P411 info and says he's good. Those ladies scare me and I never use them as a reference again.
One of the reasons why I don't post my number...if you are from Eccie, and you have a few reviews under your belt, then PM me on Eccie. If you belong to P411, then message me on P411. Otherwise, it just doesn't count in my eyes.
If you are neither, but have references, or would like to be screened, that's fine too...email me and I will take care of you!

But bottom line, screening is a must!

Very true Naomi. Only problem I have are the few ladies that harp on screening.They tend to be the ones that all it takes is a phone call or text with your handle and a little sweet talk to get a date. Not saying all the ladies are like this but there are some.
Thanks for the input, folks. I am still new to the hobby and am still learning... however, I've had some tremendous mentors both in the form of providers and hobbyists. I posted a small warning in the Oklahoma Mens' Lounge to alert my fellow hobbyists.

It's too bad too...this young lady looked amazing.

I have used BP on occasion to advertise also. I see nothing wrong with it, as long as you screen. I have met some great clients off that site, believe it or not. But the majority of the emails you will get are from the biggest losers or freebie seekers. Theres nothing wrong with where you advertise, it's how you carry yourself and conduct business. BP has received such a bad reputation because the majority of the people there are scammers or LE lurkers.

I KNOW! That's why I hate when men email me from eccie on my private email, but not through the eccie program itself. All the ones that have done this have been total wankers and haven't passed the screening process. Granted, a good number of men who've contacted me via eccie haven't either, but there've been a few-- and at least they're less likely to be wanker-ish if they're emailing me on eccie so I can see if they have a community presence or not.

SugarBeth. . . You say that eccie men have a hard time passing your screening. Do they have the required references? Do you try to work with them if they don't have the required reference by alternative form of reference check? I know of some of the local ladies won't take touring ladies references and vice versa for touring ladies.
