I have been reading all of your responses that have been posted here. I have been on OMP for 1 1/2 years now and yes I have seen where there have been minors that have posted that are willing to do inappropriate listings. For myself, I do not agree with any child doing something that is not only degrading, but against the law. When I have seen something like this, I don't complain on the message boards, but instead, I notify the webmaster of OMP in reference to that. Well guess what, to my dismay, it has already been corrected and/or the profile has been disabled.
In reference to contacting models for possible shoots, I will not insinuate that I am a professional photographer, I would consider myself more of a semi-professional, to where I make less than 50% of my annual income. I have contacted models before and yes, not all are knocking on my door or calling my cell to say "hey, your great and I want to shoot with you". If you understand the listings on OMP, there is a section on each profile that states when the page was created and also when the page was updated. I have seen where both Models and Photographers have not updated their page in well over 1 year. But you know what, that doesn't stop me, and by all means it isn't the only place where I find work in the chosen field that I work in.
