@SunsetSnuggles I don't believe it did give any direct ways /info to sign up as a pro. 🤔 I may be wrong but it seems to be:
▪︎ Create account. ▪︎ Verify email. ▪︎ Fill out profile. ▪︎ View rest of site. ▪︎ And somewhere there's a link to becoming a pro...
@LadyVel Creating an general account is the main steps when joining the site, but there are 2 ways to apply for being listed as a Pro.
Reporting someone for looking at their profile is insane.
@netrunner That's about what I remembered. I remember I had to look up how to become one.
@wilderdude Even when they're wearing the s & m garb? 👀
@Minestrone101 oof, that doesn't belong on here. idk if I'd report though unless they were over exposing themselves. At most i'd block & move on
@Minestrone101 @wilderdude I saw a chick on here ages ago with a picture showing a whole wall lined with whips and other toys in the background. Definitely report; that type of thing, and fetish wear, is not-so-subtle advertising.

@SunsetSnuggles yeah I'd report it, even if it affects my "street cred." Pple here love flagging on the forums like a foot petal bass drum , so why not do so for actual TOS violations?
@Minestrone101 i love flagging too…sometimes I even flag myself! 🏴☠️

Um, absolutely. People have made disparaging remarks when I talk about reporting people and it makes me 🤨😅. I'm literally doing what the mods tell us all to do, and if I was doing it for things that weren't legit, the mods would slap me down.
Also, no one but the mods should be aware of your reports, so your "street cred" should remain...however it already was. 🤭

@SunsetSnuggles You're on my turf! I don't like how you're dealing on my block! 🕵️♂️
@Minestrone101
@SunsetSnuggles It's chowder!
@Katota
@Bear...All pros have to accept clients I believe. I don't have to accept any client I choose not to. When the red flags add up, I understand it's not worth my time. I could be tagged as a pro and not receive booking requests, or turn them down for a myriad of reasons, including basic logistics. So the statement isn't correct. Although I'm no authority.
@SunsetSnuggles if the mods told you to jump off a bridge, would you do it? They're just humans with error and biases like the rest of us

Depends, is there a bungee cord involved? 😛
You are responding to my comment regarding mods telling all users to report Terms and Conditions violations. Typically those are sexual infractions on a platonic site...some made by misunderstanding of the intent of this platform, but most done on purpose by creepers. I report them because they are inherently against the spirit of platonic cuddling, if not outright dangerous. I don't blindly follow the mods or admin; there is plenty about how this site is run that I don't agree with.
@cuddlewithKyle What a strange accusation! lol Every person banned prevents scams and sexual assaults and makes the community a safer space. Why is that something wrong? Next thing we know, Godwin's Law comes into play. Mazel tov.
BE CAREFUL!!! TRUST YOUR GUT!!! I'm not all that impressed with the vagueness as to why the people who run this site do it as they do. My account was once suspended for saying that I (me, personally) don't see why anyone would pay to cuddle someone because it takes no skills or training to just hold someone on a message board and one of the moderators took that as me "trashing" pros. NO! Trashing pros would have been me saying, "They lack intelligence and are too lazy to get REAL jobs". The lack of reasoning skills among SOME people is scary- ESPECIALLY on a site like this. YOU are your best defense! DO NOT take ANYTHING "here" personally.. It's not worth it!!
@great_pillow08 Not to plunge down a rabbit hole, but people pay others to cuddle them because they most likely can't get cuddles any other way. Some people don't have romantic partners or friends they can do that with, and some do but those people may not be into that sort of touch. Like anything else, if there's a demand, there will be people willing to meet it -- and since they are giving up their time and energy, why shouldn't they get paid?
(Now, one could make the argument, well, they are getting cuddled back (usually) and so getting a benefit, so why should they get paid? Well, I had a wonderful job for 20+ years I got a lot of intangible benefits from and loved, but I still deserved to get paid for my time and effort. Enjoying what you do doesn't mean you shouldn't get compensated.)

If I read this correctly, someone is getting their account suspended again.
@MonkeyNeedsAHug - Why are you adding words that she didn't say?
Oh, Hi Mike.
We speaking again?
The parentheticals are my understanding of what the poster above is saying. The quotes are side by side, so you can draw your own conclusion. And of course, I could be off in my understanding. But it seems a thin distinction and an ill-advised point to try to double down on.

FWIW, I’m not really clear how to proceed here. If a person who has blocked me asks me a direct question in the forums, I trust I am able to answer. Should I @ them or no?
Nobody believes that pros are lazy. At least I hope not. Many of them have real jobs and picked up a side hustle...plus they risk getting perverts/predators which is rampant on this site. Screening people IS a skill.
Just a basic logical observation: Being a professional cuddler and being lazy are not mutually exclusive.
I agreed to cuddle with a man, and I am a man, and then I messaged that he would have to leave by midnight, and then he cancelled me without explanation. I don’t know why I didn’t like being cancelled if it is his preference.
I mean blocked me, not cancelled me.
