Which means nothing whatsoever.

Models are often flooded with tons of crap from photographers, GWCs and perverts on a daily basis and it is totally understandable that they'll bin a ton of them without replying.

Where do you see that?



Need to be a Gold or Platinum member.

But I agree with Red above - depends how much crap people get.

Do you write back to Nigerian spammers, or any spammers.
The only purestorm spammers that I have replied to have turned out to a complete waste of my time.
One didn't log on to PS for a month after sending message asking for shoot (presumably to all photographers in London)
The other I wrote back saying I didn't have any current availability but would be interested in the future, what are your rates? No reply
So in general having a low reply rate is presumably a good thing as it may deter spammers.

Like any dealer he was watching for the card that is so high and wild he'll never need to deal another...

About time we had a thread about such behaviour, it must be ooooooh days since the last one wink

Yes I wondered why mine wasn't 100% and then realised that!

I've been told mine is about as about as good as it gets.

A single no-show feedback might not put me off a model but I might be inclined to ask for a private reference from that photographer, I've done that a couple of times before. I'm sure some people would lie in that scenario if they had a really bad experience and are still sore about it but the photographers I spoke to were not derrogatory and didn't start ranting, they simply told me the bare facts of the situation and left me to make up my own mind. If it seems to me that the poor feedback reason was fairly forgiveable/understandable AND the model has a good port that really shows off what they can do, I might think they'd be worth the risk and I would probably give them a chance.

A dry sponge is a happy sponge.
