Most annoying things when you are looking for an escort on AW

[Ana_X]

That I'm a punter who uses Adultwork is not something I really want to make public.

If you're referring to "private" galleries, then I don't know how many pay to use them but I don't. I prefer to use my money to punt, or place a reverse booking. The photos I see on the profile or in the public gallery make an impression on me, as well as the response I get and any messaging.

There could be some kind of "reputation" level: maybe at least 3 positive reviews from different service providers?

Precisely. Hence, if all face pics are kept behind a pay wall then the person doing the outing is at much a risk of being outed himself, so it'd put such a person off. Wasn't pointing at that being your motive by the way.

Private galleries are popular, it's the place to see rude content the provider has produced and if it's handled well it can be some people's sole source of income which is why there's a setting on our side of 'provide content only'.

In any case (and back on point) it's down to each individual escort if they want to show face or not, and if it ever became a forced issue there'd be an exodus from AW of SPs taking their fees for paying to feature, display mobile numbers, feature by country/region etc. AW aren't known for putting up with losing income over punter wants, so I can't see that happening any time soon.
