Ghosted or Lame Excuse, which is worse?

not sure if this should be a poll or not

you do everything asked,
you respond to a post
they verify and screen you
you even verify method of payment
they are "getting ready"
then.............................................. ..................

would you have rather that or them say, their babysitter didn't show or ?

life happens we all can agree, but sometimes silence is deafening :(

Who cares? They are making my DNS list.

My preferred is something came up, can we reschedule for... I don’t need or want an excuse. It would just be nice to know our scheduled time won’t work and we can try again.

Now ghosting is just rude and I interpret as go f*** yourself...

^^^ Exactly,. Trust us ladies do not give an excuse or make some stupid ass story about your car or kid.. We all know those lies are far from true. Yall just make yourselves look bad. Cancel on me once fine. Make up a stupid excuse. I never bothered them again.

Just simply say. I need to cancel. That is it.

One thing is for certain, anything goes in hobby land. It is what it is. You can do a couple of things.
1. Try to reschedule
2. Never try and see them again
3. Move on to another since you got money ready to burn.

Here’s the truth. Whatever excuse you get, we’re nothing special. Hobbyist are not going anywhere. Providers call the shots and that’s it.

What not to do: post your complaint on the board. No one cares.

A lady ghosted me once and the next day, texted me and apologized saying she had passed out drunk. At least that excuse I could believe.

If you need an excuse, one's as good as another. My babysitter just showed up isn't an excuse, it's a reason, just like I have a flat tire is for a hobbyist.

Lol....this wasn’t me was it????

I think I'll take a lame excuse over being ghosted. If it's not happening, doesn't matter the reason, but I would like to move on to another provider. I have been asked to give a 5 min heads up before arrival, and once on location...crickets. Not really sure what the end goal was there...
