Most providers won't see you without screening you. With reviews, screening becomes a lot easier and faster. All they have to do is check out the reviews you've left, and the responses to those reviews.
Hello. I'm Caucasian, 50, and 6'1". I was sucked into the hobby about 20 years ago, lol. I started out on RB and after it's demise I picked back up on NS. I've been involved in a few private local websites which are always fun. I have found that private websites have a more relaxed and fun atmosphere because of the tight knit community and the commonality of understanding and respecting the need for privacy and confidentiality. It also saves you from a lot of needless drama and headaches because someone who is already established needs to vouch for you before you are able to join these websites. After the powers that be decided what's best for the Providers and Hobbyists NS decided to call it quits and PD is now filling the void. I've seen and remain friends with many Providers listed but reviews can't be from over 6 months ago and I saw the majority of Providers back during the RB and NS days.
As you can see by my handle I love to DATY. I prefer DFK as well, but if not it's not a deal breaker. I prefer a Provider is who isn't mechanical, let's themselves go a little bit and gets caught up in the moment, and has a good time. I'm very laid back and just go with the flow. There's no need for drama or stress. Life's full of that and that's what we're trying to get away from even if it's just for a an hour or 3. 😂 See you soon.
