etasman2000 15994 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 why not reveal his many identities to all to benefit the community. Just a thought! The 'SP Only Section' is the proper place for this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cordsboy 184 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 Wow this thread is an eye opener; I've always felt it necessary to treat the ladies with the out most respect when meeting with them, have these guys not heard the saying "you scratch my back I'll scratch yours". For all the good guys out there (and I know there are a lot of us) next time you see an SP take a few minutes to make them feel special as we all know they have to deal with these types of a%$holes every other day. ...I still can't believe that ad the guy posted on CL... :shock: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kih 458 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 The 'SP Only Section' is the proper place for this. Agreed. However, many of the ladies do not have access to this area. Another option is to put a sticky in the Ottawa warning section about this character. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You do not need a banner on E.C. to gain access. If you have a profile ad on E.C. for more then 14 days without any complaints we pretty much know your legit (so a E.C. Ad would help but a banner would not help in any way). Someone with access to the SP ONLY area can VOUCH for you as well (if they have met you personally) also... contributions on this site over time will gain you access as well (like a recommendation from a couple of our high ranking members for instance would help confirm and validate your account) Agreed. However, many of the ladies do not have access to this area. Another option is to put a sticky in the Ottawa warning section about this character. The ottawa warning section in public view is for the guys only (post publicly about the fake photos, scammers and dangerous stuff like the robbery stuff that has been going on). If a lady without access to the SP ONLY area wishes to warn others they can PM me and I will post it for them in the SP ONLY area while we work on getting them verified for access.

Meg O'Ryan 266444 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 I understand the need for all of the rules in order to gain access to the SP ONLY area but after reading this thread from start to finish...I feel the SP's have just as much right to warnings as the hobbiest! The "bait and switch" is up for everyone to view! We are in more danger than a hobbiest who walks in to an ugly duckling when he was expecting a super model! Do the hobbiest's deserve to be anonymous while the SP's must be out on display? Sorry for the rant but the double standard is a bit upsetting! If I am off base on this subject, please let me know. I will not take it the wrong way! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mod 135640 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 You are a little "off base" but I can explain why. We have a BAD DATE info area for a number of cities in the SP ONLY area in private (it's private to be more effective and to be more safe for the ladies reporting this info). It is available to ANY sp (FOR FREE) who can be verified or vouched for by someone who already has acces (PM ME FOR INFO). If the ladies were to post some of this info in public it could make for a potentially dangerous situation as the guy would know who posted his info (and) it would show the guys who are black listed what info you had on them so they could circumvent the bad date list (Making the list much less effective). The bait and switch and dangerous encounters area on the site (in public view) is for the guys to report the following... FAKE PHOTOS, SCAMS (Like credit card scams found on CL) and also to report dangerous encounters (steeling the guys money with threats and such). This area is NOT for bad reviews (We do not allow negative reviews here) .. and it's public because we want people to know that no one will tolerate fake photos (bait and switch), CC scams and being robbed. This area is more to combat scammers who give all the SP's bad names as crap like this adds to the stereotypes you all face. If a new guy to the business books his first SP who scams him with a fake photo, cc scam or robs him chances are he may never book another sp or if he does he will be jaded about it (making life harder for all of you honest ladies) this area is as much for you all as it is for the guys! If ANY LADIES wish to have access to the SP ONLY area ... Again, it is FREE! It is hidden from public view for everyone's protection. We will need to verify you as a SP and we have a few ways we can do this. The easiest way is with an ad on escorts-canada for at least 14 days without complaint (We own E.C so we have full access to all that info and it's a easy way to make sure you are legit for us) but you can also verify yourself with contributions here on cerb, someone with access already can VOUCH for you and we have other ways as well (PM me for info). The SP ONLY area should be available to ALL SP's but we must make sure for the ladies protection that we screen everyone as best as possible. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The SP ONLY area should be available to ALL SP's but we must make sure for the ladies protection that we screen everyone as best as possible. All good points. Black list areas are more effective when the subject on the list doesn't know he is there. I have seen a couple of guys info get posted more publically in a Neighbourhood Watch area, as these people are dangerous, deranged, etc. Or it may be info on a scam that targets sps. Posting in a NW area puts it out there for anyone thinking of doing the same thing to hopefully make them think twice. The person presenting this bad date info is shown to only a select few. On a different board I am on there is also a separate forum for escorts, and an "anonymous" feature has been added, which allows the poster to choose to post their info without revealing their handle. (Since all the members with access to the room have all been screened this is more for their own privacy) One thing you can also consider here is to have group leaders who actually phone and talk to the applicants. They can discuss the rules of the area and it serves to "feel them out" and verify gender. Not everyone is mature enough to understand how to be discrete, and I think we have all seen those ones post here and there lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VedaSloan 119179 Report post Posted October 18, 2009 Manipulations aside, guys ask for bbfs on occasion because they know there are SP's stupid enough to do it for more cash. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The BAD DATE are here has this feature as well. We had it installed a few months back. Just makes security that much better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungStud 468 Report post Posted October 20, 2009 littlelady is indeed for real and in my opinion should be afforded admission into the SP-only section. I agree. Just from the traffic on the board, it's often not very difficult to determine when anyone who's been a member for more than a few weeks is a legit SP, with or without vouching.
