I go 2 ways with screening. If a lady is active on one of the boards popular in their area, I'll send a DM there to establish contact.... this way, she has access to reviews I've posted or ladies I've visited. 2nd, I'll use P411 as a means of contact, and she can view the OK's I've received on there. If I email, I'll always ask if their on any sites I can DM her from showing my reviews. This way, in my brain, they can see I've been around and screened before, and they can feel safer knowing this.
This is just my way of looking at it, and I've never really had to provide any additional information beyond this.
Things have certainly changed in the hobby over the past few years. I noticed more and more gentlemen using screening services such as P411 and RS2K for screening than ever before.
I went off a few what I call lower-end sites due to the lack of willingness to screen. I don't have time to argue with people about it and I won't use "screening" methods that do not screen such a social media (too easy to put up a fake account), whitelists and reviews (too many people buying and trading services for them) or business cards (too easy to fake). On other sites the gentlemen often send their screening info such as P411 or work info in their first e mail. The quality and culture of websites make a HUGE difference in my experience.
If they are not willing & able, then they can find another provider that fits their needs. The only way to bypass my screening is if you know a person friend that will vouch for you. If you’re risking your life it’s your choice to screen potential new clients, or friends.
I haven't noticed less of a willingness to screen, I'm noticing more screen sites being utilized and gentlemen being more picky as to who they give personal screening info to. I see the screening culture has changed.
I left the hobby 5.5 yeas ago. At that time I had very few meetings off P411 and almost none off RS2K. Other sites that got me more meetings were not screening sites. I've been back for about a year now and the opposite is now true. P411 is my busiest site and RS2K isn't far behind.
This is where the "little" things pay off. Gentle that are not using screening sites are very choosy as to who they give screening info to. Ladies who have earned a reputation of being honest, respectful, sober and professional are more likely to get these gentlemen to screen to see them. Gentlemen take big risks seeing us and those providers who are straight with them will see more of them. I often hear "I'll give you this info because I trust you. I won't give it to just anyone."
With this being said, I find it to be well worth paying for the services of these screening sites to support them. Their more important now than ever.
