As a pro, I recommend all pros screen thoroughly to avoid putting themselves in unsafe situations. My advice for what to say is to explain discretion vs anonymity. It's perfectly okay and understandable to want to remain anonymous on this website, but you cannot be anonymous to me. I guarantee discretion in that I keep your information private (between you, me, and my safety person). I need to feel physically safe meeting people in a private setting. This real world information is a necessity, no exceptions. If we made this the standard, it would be a lot harder for people to take advantage. There would be fewer people pushing boundaries if we got their real info from the get-go so they couldn't hide behind their alias. If someone refuses to screen, they'll go to the next pro. I don't want to be the next pro when the person doesn't want to screen because they're hiding a violent criminal record. Just a thought.
