I don’t ask guys to review me… if they mention they are part of UG, I always encourage reviews because that’s what this board is about. If anyone hasn’t figured it out, I’m a huge UG fan. I encourage guys to join, I encourage women to advertise, and I encourage members to be active and contribute.
I do have a lot more lurking clients than actual contributing clients and the 4 main reason I hear are: (1) - because they see how petty the guys on UG are to each other and newbies. (2) - They don’t appreciate the demeaning and degrading done to the women in the industry on this board and choose not to be a part of it, but rather take what they need and leave the rest. (3) - they are scared to be a member for business/family/personal life reasons. (4) - “that
@billyS guy and all his rules”
Either way, to each their own. I’m still a fan and still direct people in this direction. I even direct clients who contact me because of my reviews on other sites to join this site instead. I feel like there’s a lot to gain from UG… whether you’re a lurker or a member.
