    The only reason i suggested it was because we are constantly being told that the ad staff are under pressure , and if the dont need to deal with fake profile reports on unverified pictures , surely it can only benefit all of us if they concentrate on the fake verified profiles. I agree El , it leaves us with less information but i would still rather give my money to an escort that goes to the trouble of verifing our pics that and unverified profile which is 80/20 at best.

    I started another thread on this but given the pressure that the staff are under it is bizarre that girls with verified pics and over 40 positive reviews are suddenly in the category of photos awaiting verification.

    At the same timeone girl who had verified photos just changed her photos and they are still verified even though it iis clearly a different person. Now the second set maybe accurate but why were the first set verified. In addition it must raise questions about the reviewers who did not mention the fact that the photos were not accurate.

    Even if the escort is excellent it is important information if the photos are not accurate.

    All girls verified or not that change their photos MUST go into Awaiting Verification status until the new are verified. But Donna has done some excellent work here on the subject of unverified photos and has made some very valid points. Photos are crucial in a profile to advertise a girl. It is the first port of call when choosing an escort. Why should the legit girls be compromised, by the others who draw you to their profile using completely fake glossies, if they are making the effort to offer correct images. I tend to agree that if a profile cannot display verified photos …then it should display none.

    Here's the problem with this idea. Ad Staff often make mistakes in both directions. They verify fake pics and they mark genuine pics unverified. I'm not having a go at them; their job is not an easy one and mistakes are inevitable. But if you go through with this then you will be denying some ladies with genuine pics the chance to advertise, since an ad with no pics is entirely worthless. More importantly, you will be denying them any chance to get the mistake corrected. How do these mistakes get corrected? Usually by a punter alerting Ad Staff that he has seen the escort and that the pics displayed are real. Both Mademoiselle Avenante and Anya had pictures listed as unverified when I first met them. They were verified when I contacted Ad Staff to say the lady I met was the one in the pictures. How could I have done that if there were no pics? Would I even have gone to see them? No.

    You can say Ad Staff are overworked. Fine. E-I charges €100 a week to advertise. There are 358 escorts advertising right now in Dublin alone. That's €35,800 a week in revenue before we've even considered the other 31 counties. Do you really think Patricia can't afford to hire another person to do this?

    Not necessarily. There have been cases where a successful escort has retired, leaving her profile to someone else, probably for money. If this is one of those cases then the reviewers probably met the lady in the earlier set of photos and had no reason to say anything. In other words, those reviews might not be about the escort currently working under that name, but that doesn't mean the reviewers are dishonest.

    “All right,” said the Cat; and this time it vanished quite slowly, beginning with the end of the tail, and ending with the grin, which remained some time after the rest of it had gone.

    But El , you were extremely lucky in both these cases and you must admit that this is not a common occurence. Why didnt these ladies verify their pics in the first place. I agree an advert with no pictures is worthless and this surely will encourage more escorts to verify their pictures, which can only be good for the site .

    You still seem not to be getting what I am saying. Ad Staff make mistakes. Both the ladies I'm talking about sent verification photos to E-I. For whatever reason Ad Staff listed them as not verified, even though the profile pics were theirs. If E-I adopted your no unverified pics rule then there would never be a way to correct such mistakes.

    I'm not knocking Ad Staff here. Realistically there is no way they could possibly get it right all the time. The get a photo electronically. How are they supposed to know who sent it? They never see any escorts. I'm sure they try their best, but you are still much better off with the opinion of someone who has actually seen the escort.
