Greetings all!

There are two trends that are currently getting more and more widespread that I am finding disturbing and annoyed by. The first one is that more and more providers are wanting to facetime the hobbiests for verification, instead of the safe and good way of providing references. How the hell does facing timing someone vet them in the first place? If they are a UC, they could easily just do the facetime and say whatever they want to say, but if you make them provide qualified references then there's no getting around that really. It puts hobbiests at risk to do any kind of selfies/facetime. Is anybody on here doing facetime with providers??

The second issue is that I'm noticing more and more providers not providing any pictures on their ads whatsoever! That's the only way we can decide if we want to see someone. With no pictures, we have no clue what we are getting into. I mean I skip the ad completely with no pics. Has anyone else noticing this???
