Every Age Needs Cannon Fodder
[QUOTE=JBalmain;6660722]Fellas idk if I'm trying to get a load off or applying to a government job with these "screening" post I've seen so much of lately.
Are yall really sending references / I'd / selfies to these women? LOL.[/QUOTE]Short answer: No.
Longer answer: any Orifice Enthusiast that provides references / I'd / selfies obviously does not understand that there are bigger risks with any first time encounter:
(1) encountering Uncle LEO;.
(2) encountering a Handler who views you as a walking ATM and intends to treat you accordingly before you can get your pants back on;.
(3) having to later explain to your family physician that he should worry less about whether your signifcant other will also be needing a penicillin shot and more about what kind of prescription he can write to cure what is obviously a groin-area rash caused by the fact that your S. O. Switched laundry detergent without taking into consideration the sensitive nature of your nether region;.
At the end of the day I want everyone traveling in our circles to be safe from sorrow and strife, but fact is that anyone sending references / ids / selfies obviously has not done their homework and like the saying goes "the world needs ditch diggers and Uncle LEO has quotas to meet. . . " (or something like that. . .).
To Send or Not to Send is indeed the question
[QUOTE=BigHatnoCattle;6663110]So how do you get around verification / screening? No way I'm doing anything like that p441 or otherwise. As you mentioned way too much risk. Noob so sorry for being uneducated. I read the forum but a lot of times you read people saying "after screening" or something to the effect that they did in fact provide a lot of details.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=GiddenLade;6663733]I've had people tell me I look like Spike Lee. Happened as recently as a few days ago actually. Not the greatest compliment in my opinion, but it's happened enough times that it must be true. So I turned lemons into lemonade and found a picture of him without his signature glasses. Used it quite a few times with "send a photo" chicks and much to my surprise it worked. Only had one chick call me out on it. I still remember her text: "I'm not dumb. That's Spike Lee. " Got a good laugh out of it and moved on. Bottom line, if you can find a picture online of someone who looks kind of like you that may be a work-around. As far as sending pics of an I'd I would say that's pretty much inviting a world of problems. With all the data breaches and such I don't even feel comfortable getting my ID copied for legit reasons, but what can you do? I sure as heck wouldn't send it to a working girl or agency.[/QUOTE]I tried the "send a Doppleganger pic response" a couple times at first but still felt like the fact that it was a requirement meant there was a higher risk that at the end of the day I might end up experiencing more downside than backside, so I just decided if a gal can't be talked into waiving the verification / screening then it's time to look into adopting a different kitty. The shelter's got a steady supply; just got to be patient.
Also, by way of full disclosure, I operate without the advantage of looking anything remotely like Spike Lee. I did, however, once have an angry ex tell me I have the physique and entitlement attitude displayed by Jabba the Hutt so I used Jabba's pic one time and was told to come on. Of course, come to think of it that happened at the first of the month were I think we all know that "screening" rules take a back seat to the prospect of having to give three or four freebies to the landlord until the rent can be paid. . .
