Does leolist picture verification matter?

[Riza]

So as was discussed on another thread leolist has come out with the picture verification process again. They have made it more difficult for fake pics to get through this time. You can't change them with other pics after, they are locked to your profile. Bunch of rules. They seem to monitoring it and actually looking at the pics before giving you your verification. Its not full proof but should hopefully cut down on some of the fake pics for the moment.

So my question is does it matter to you? Will it influence your decision if you happen to be cruising through leo's pages looking for your next encounter will that little check mark make a difference to you. If you found two girls and each was "your" type, same donation, same area and menu and neither have a review here or any board you can find (or maybe you are one of the guys that have never heard of escort review boards) would the check mark sway who you saw and if it did by how much?

Ready.... set.... go lol

I voted will influence slightly. It helps....but usually can tell the real pics from fake pics. Of course there is a lot of bait and switch going on from what I've read. My 2 recent foray's into the hobby, I depended mostly on the reviews here. If I were to TOFTT, verified pics would for sure help - but I would walk if the person in the pics wasn't the one who was there when I arrived.

For ladies like yourself who are established, doesn't matter at all.
Someone who is new, who's photos look much much too good, it helps quite a bit.

Lots of reputable ladies will probably not need to get verified.
Lots of flakes and dual posters with different names may suffer.

To be honest I think it's useless. A semi experienced pooner will be able to tell real from fake pictures and/or how much it's touched up. The few verified pics I've seen are actually worse in quality (for whatever reason) than he non verified pics of the same provider.

probably because they rushed it to get verified fast, they get discounts (not much) but it does add up I guess, so thats probably the reason for the rushing.

FYI ladies, leolist won't verify nude photos! lol :smow: even partial nudity

Yes we get discounts for verified ads which gets the price per bump down but they increased the cost of bumping dramatically when they did the new verification option so at the end of the day with the discount for verified ad our cost of advertising went up about 35% and for the girls not verified its up over 65%. For those that use it Backpage has increased about 400% in the last year also.

I know it totally sucks! basically its gone up 50 cents with being verified...ugh! perhaps now is the time to start increasing rates overall
