I have been thinking about putting my Real Pic on P411 Profile since it is a Different Handle than Copierguy0 but, not sure if i want my Real Pic on the internet. I am Divorced and don't have any SO to worry about but, there is another worry & that is if my Co-Workers found out. Can they really find out if i have a pic on P411? It's not like you can do a search for Copierguy0 or my real name and my pic shows up. And it should be Good for screening purposes since a pic will show you exactly who will be showing up at your incall. So my questions to ya'll are this:

Ladies, how many clients have a posted pic on P411?
(I ask this same question to both Ladies and Gents because i realize that not all your Clients or Providers are on Eccie)
How many clients completely fill out their BIO?
How many of ya'll even bother to read it?
(there is tracking to confirm)
Do you Approve of this as a Good screening Method?

Gentleman, how many of ya'll post a pic on P411 Profile?
(this is a new feature but i am not sure if i want to do this)
How many of ya'll completely fill out your BIO?
How many of ya'll are told that she read it
but, tracking say's otherwise?
What are the Positives & negatives by doing this?

Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated
as i am at a crossroad on this issue.

Don't do it. Facial recognition software is about to become mainstream. Your boss or your co-workers will soon be able to do a search based on a picture of your face.

I can't tell you what you should do. I can say that there are a good number of gentlemen that post their pictures. If you are not comfortable with the idea, seriously, don't worry about it. Your bio is much more important to me. Too many gents don't fill it out, and I've been known to request that they do, or at least give me the info that would be in their bio. P411 is my favorite tool for screening and I strongly recommend it. If you have a picture that you think looks nice and represents you well, we always love seeing them, but it is certainly not a necessity. FILL OUT YOUR BIO! :P

@the OP... Yea, I thought about posting my picture there... but only for a second. But something I do, is if the provider would like to see a photo of me, I'll send her one before we meet. If she's on p411. If she request it.

If I was advising you... I'd tell you no, don't do it. But I'm not. Good luck with it.

Seems like the downside is high, but very unlikely. The upside does not seem to exist. In, fact, is there even one good thing that could come from posting your face pic? I don't think so. Thus, I wouldn't, and dont, have a pic posted.

Thanks for helping me to start my Monday with a good laugh.

I don't have and won't ever post my pic to P411. I do however have my bio completely filled out and would send a pic to a provider who asked for one if I trusted her to be real. My thought about it is if you feel it is something you shouldn't do already then don't do it.

I would not have an issue posting a pic on 411 if it wasnt for my personal life. If my hobby was found out by my friends and family I would most likely be stoned and caned.

Life and circumstances change. You're single now but what happens in the future when your current SO finds that you've seen (GASP!) escorts?

Even the most level headed, strongly sexual women that I know tend to go berserk and/or have VERY strong feelings when the issue of escorting/prostitution/paid companionship comes up.

Err on the side of caution. There really isn't a need not to. Sorry for the double negative in a sentence!

Just my thoughts.

Hugs,
Elisabeth

I would have said something similar but I didn't wish for anyone to think that I was trolling for a tryst!

Sage advice indeed! My SO is a vocal proponent that the "oldest profession" is important to a functioning society and should be both legal and respected. But if you think for a moment I would tell her about my alter ego you are not thinking straight. There is a big difference between macro and micro thinking on such personal issues. She would be upset that I sought solace elsewhere, resentful of the power it takes from her, and down right pissed off about the money.

Regards,

I would not post my picture. But, keep in mind, you have to have a provider account to see any client info. Web crawlers will not find your picture or info. FR software will not find you either. And even a provider has to have your handle to look at your info. So the only real danger is that a provider you see might use your photo against you or the site might get compromised.

L4L is correct. Pics can easily be extracted or copied and used for purposes you never ever thought of. Modern cell phones and some cameras often include geotags in the picture metadata that can be used to pinpoint the geographical location where the picture was taken. This could be used to find you if it fell in the wrong hands (where you live, work, etc.).

DON"T DO IT!!!

Eklutna · 10-25-2010, 05:42 PM

P411 can block the indexing of the pics (http://www.preferred411.com/robots.txt), but there is still the metadata issue that m5552009 mentioned and the risk that a provider stray to the flaky side and do something evil with it. SO . . . no pic for me, but I did fill out my profile thoroughly.

Guest0812112 · 10-25-2010, 06:22 PM

Your picture is not important to me, its nice to see on the ones that do post, but kinda ruins the surprise of who shows up at the door. Please fill out your bio, and do list any likes or dislikes or preferences you might have. If I check your info by pc it will show I checked. If by phone last I checked it does not show.
While I use real pics, I fully realize the risk I take and the price it could someday cost me. Therefore I would suggest that you not post a pic any where you don't have to. Just my $0.02
