    peter831 reacted to TorontoDrew in New RM 7.0 format. Yay or Nay? add your reasoning too if you'd like!   
    All of those are still there.  Hit the filter button and positions can be seen.  Scroll down to "more filters" and you can see the rest.
    I like the continuous scrolling feature.  
    What I don't like is how some things stop working.  Some says I can't sign on.  Some days the chat doesn't work.  If they can fix the problems the site will be fine.

    I have had a couple of hot guys reach out to me on Grindr at different times without me having anything on my profile about generous. We made arrangements in chat including the rate for their time. Both were great experiences.

    peter831 reacted to RadioRob in Important Upcoming Changes to Site   
    There are a few important changes that are in the works that I wanted to let the community know about so that there are no surprises and that you can properly plan for them.  
    Sometime before the end of the year (most likely in November), there is going to be an update to the Invision Power Board (IPB) software which will require users to login with their email address instead of their display name.  This means if you have to login to the site, you would type in your email address to access the site once that update is applied.  Once logged in, your email address will not be shown anywhere.  You current username will continue to be used once logged into the site to view and post.    
      With the October release of IPB, it will introduce a new feature that allows admins to prune older private messages that have not had any replies within a certain amount of time.  We currently have over 1M private messages exchanged by users going back for 20 years.  This takes up over 1000MB of space within the site's database.  I plan to use the new feature to prune messages that have not been replied to within 5 years.  If you have older private messages that are important for you (for sentimental purposes or contain helpful information), please be sure to save an offline copy for yourself.  You could also simply just reply to the message again so that it has recent activity.  That would automatically exclude it from being pruned.
      As part of my resiliency planning, I've been trying to figure out how the site would continue to operate if something happened to me.  We've seen what happened when Daddy died...  if we don't have someone who understands how to run a website and how to maintain the IPB software, we could find ourselves in a bad place.  Finding people that understand all of this is difficult if not impossible.  As a result, I've been focused on how to remove this dependancy.  My plan is to have the site moved to being hosted by Invision itself.  They would take care of all of the underlying server technology and ensure the platform is compatible with the software.  Any updates could be applied from the Admin area of the site without needing to understand about the rest of the stuff under the hood.  Sometime before the end of the year (most likely in November), I will need to schedule a day or two to take the site offline for the migration to ensure we don't lose any data from the time I start the export until the time it's migrated and restored.  Having Invision host the site is somewhat more expensive than what we're doing today, but I think it's a critical step to ensure the site's continued operations should I get hit by a bus or something similar.   I don't have specific dates yet for the above changes.  The first two changes are dependent on the IPB software being released and me being able to test them successfully before applying.  The last change will need to be coordinated with the Invision hosting team to make sure they have someone available on their side to handle the import after I finish exporting our data.  
    If you have any questions, please feel free to ask below.

    Agreed!!!  I was also contemplating Dean....but these exceedingly long posts filled with effusive and "ceaseless adulation" make me seriously wonder what's going on, and greatly lowering the potential I will contact Dean.

    It's becoming incredibly tiresome how @StarGZ is spamming the forum with his (or their) hagiography of this escort. I had long ago decided that I would love to meet him and I'm unlikely to resile from that view but if I were not already convinced, his ceaseless adulation would make me doubt the wisdom of contacting Dean. A clingy succession of posts, each praising Dean more effusively than the last does nothing to help him. If he is as good as you say, and I don't doubt that he is, you will serve his interests better if you just STFU.

    One might also add to the definition of “tacky” the following: “people who brag about how much money they have and how they can afford to give it to an escort even if the escort raises his rates”.
    Some of these recent posts border on idol worship.  While I have infrequently been guilty of being infatuated with an escort I always remind myself it’s a business transaction and the escort really couldn’t care less about me as a person, only my Ben Franklins. 
     
    Im quite sure Ivyleague is the quintessential provider but at the end of the day it’s all about the moolah. He’s making frequent trips to the bank and we’re left with a good warm fuzzy feeling after a session with him.  A win/win for both sides of the transaction.

    As a consumer I find these posts and comments so strange. Usually when guys find a gem they keep it to themselves for fear of the guy being overwhelmed and prices going up and hence less available. This fan club cheering is so strange and almost makes me want to avoid him.

    I believe that you are sincere, and I'm glad you've had such amazing experiences with him. 
    That said, it really is starting to come across like you are trying to win an argument. I think you've made your point, honestly.

    The only time I give less than 5-star reviews is if the provider stole from me.
    By this, I mean they took my money for an agreed upon amount of time for specifically defined services, but left far before the session was over, and without my agreement (in all cases, they found an excuse to leave and refused any suggestion of partial refund; sometimes they were openly mean about it).
    A warning - even with this limited criteria, I've had situations where I'm the only bad vote for a guy that's 5 stars in every single other review. I'm willing to bet there are a lot of men out there who are too timid to be negative.
     
    NOTE I'm only talking about RM reviews. When we can post reviews here again,  I'll be brutally honest about even my long time regulars.

    If he agreed in advance to two hours and kissing and had performance issues then I would leave a review. Stick to the facts. If they go through the motions and fulfill the time, even if disappointing, then I don’t leave any review. If they are engaged and I have a good time, then I leave a positive review.

    Definitely would not book again.  I appreciated the apology... but - as the late great Maya Angelou said "When someone tells you who they are - believe them!"  So - now we know.

    You did the responsible thing to do by cancelling this appointment.  In a case like this, I might have offered to pay half the fee, but only as a deposit against a future appointment - not as a cancellation fee.
    You were generous above and beyond the norm.
    Clearly, apology or not, this provider is a total jerk.

    I'm sorry - I think you were played.
    Most providers would be overjoyed to be given, without even asking, half the fee, especially given that you gave him 30 hours and had Covid. When you break an appointment for Covid, you're doing a favor to both sides - which is why I would only give a token cancellation fee for that.
    Unfortunately, your provider saw your generosity, took advantage of it, and tried to get away with more.
    However, your lack of response (or, if he's on this board, reading your post) made him wise up (along with the prospect of losing the entire cancellation fee). Plus, by "settling" for half the fee, he could act like he's doing you a favor. Adding those sob stories about being short of money was his attempt to keep you as a customer (which luckily failed).

    You can't be too cynical. I've seen it all before.

    I am late to this thread, but have a POV on scenario’s like the one Steve experienced.  Escorts always want to know what you want.  Sounds like Steve provided the required detail.  Nothing sounds out of the ordinary…some kissing, sucking, fucking.  Based on what Steve said he would like to have happen, the Escort quotes him $400/hour for 2 hours and the meeting is at the escorts place.  $800 for an in call is steep, by any measure and is a lot of money to an escort and client.  If you don’t think it is a lot of money then mayb you have lost touch with how hard it is to earn that.  Especially since you have to earn on a pre-tax basis about $1,600. 
    This escort, who claims to have not cum in days then decides to JO before he has a 2 hour, $800 appt with a client.  That is inconsiderate, disrespectful and entitled.  Entitled especially since he knew within minutes of Steve entering his appt what the situation was going to be and the session ends well  before the first hour has passed.  He does not offer an apology nor does he offer to return any of the money he did not earn.  I some circles that is stealing.  He felt entitled to the total fee, despite not being able to deliver on his agreed to services.  
    Write the review, no need to soft peddle it.
