yes, lots of controversy re: RM reviews.....long-standing discussion here in the forum about their accuracy and the company's policies.....
this forum, and PMs with forum members, is always the best......seems like many RM reviewers are hesitant to answer inquiries....I can think of only one forum member who didn't reply at all to an inquiry I made of him....
if you are in the US, learn to use the hide-me-proxy VPN to read the text (if offered by the reviewer) of reviews beyond those yes/no questions.....a knack for reading between the lines of RM reviews is helpful (only comes with experience)......checking the join-date of reviewers and reading their own profiles (if they offer one) and their past review history can help in determining review reliability.....reviewers who have been around since before 2019 or so are usually reliable.....
still, this place is the best.......

@DrownedBoy, if they’re still removing negative reviews even after the new policy went into effect, it’s not a helpful picture. 

I also pay more attention to the reviews with comments and where the reviewer has submitted different reviews over time. It would be helpful to others if you did not have a five star experience to not leave a five star review. Maybe just don't leave one if you don't want to leave something less than five stars. 

...agree 100% about success rate with un-reviewed newbies...have had great experiences with newbies...the inverse is also true...have had some mediocre to poor encounters with highly reviewed/rated escorts...

I don't trust the reviews with no description.  As long as all the comments don't sound all the same I have found them to be helpful.  In my reviews I say exactly what happened.  I've been asked for a review but was always honest.  I don't review a less than stellar experience as it's not worth the aggravation of them whining about it.

I find the presence of positive reviews with notes to be helpful, especially those reviewers with a few years of membership. That said,  I’ve engaged newbies with no reviews who have been great.

This is evolved thinking and gets away from the old fashioned thinking so seemingly dominant here. Breath of fresh air. Thank you. 

holy jeez, was trying to stay out of this moronic "nail polish" thread, but requesting that a provider remove nail polish before meeting is inappropriate ("too much"!).....ya don't like it? - ya move on!.......really very simple and obvious!
(by the way, no, I don't like nail polish on dudes)

The OP is entitled to his preferences, but I would be hugely pissed if I were a provider and I showed up a client's location, looking like the guy in the photos, on time, sober, fresh. and prepared; and that client picked out some arbitrary thing that was never discussed and canceled the appointment without any compensation.   Would the OP also send him packing if he had frosted tips, or was wearing white after labor day? 
If something like that is a huge dealbreaker for you, then fine -- disclose it up front and the provider can decide if he can conduct business with you or not.

This is like guys who have tattoos. One can look at them and say, “Oh, this is terrible! I can’t have sex with such a person!” I’ve found that tats and nail polish, and died hair and pierced noses have nothing to do with an escort’s intelligence and abilities. Enjoy the moment comrades!! You may conclude that you don’t want to repeat the extraordinary session you had with this decorated person, but maybe you’ll conclude that the magic of that first experience is worth repeating, or not. Have sex and enjoy, then move on in whatever direction inspires you. 😈

It’s depressing to see so many of the elderly among us, who endured and survived so much prejudice, expressing such intolerance to the more openly expressive younger crowd. 
 
The very same elders who demand respect and appreciation, from those just coming up, for the battles we fought and road we paved for their freedoms. Shame!

Ask yourself why you're asking this question. I sincerely doubt that any trans men on RM are trying to trick cis guys into hiring them. That would be potentially quite dangerous as cis people use transphobia to explain away their violence against trans people. 
This reads as a fear-mongering hypothetical to me, which is in particularly poor taste as trans people are facing unprecedented violence and political attacks across the country. 

Moderator's note:  let's keep politics out of this thread.

I’m not a fan, but it’s not a deal breaker for me.

YES.

What's he hiding from?

must be as the link is dead already

I met with him for an hour (actually, it was over in a bit less) of “underwhelment” a few years ago. Great bod, handsome (especially if you like dimples), tried to bottom... Was perfectly polite to me but had quite a negative attitude to many things. Sort of kissed, but without involvement as he was very concerned (which I understand professionally) I not give him a hickey (which I had no intention of doing). Things didn’t exactly flow. Which was a shame, because his muscular body was (no doubt still is) quite beautiful. But all that being so, I will attest he was very professional at all times. 

He monitors this forum. When he sees this thread he'll immediately change his name.

I can’t believe this JayMarzzini character thinks people believe he’s 27. He’s definitely way closer to 40 than 27. LOL Bad hygiene, horrible teeth, bad attitude. Granted, he’s got a big dick…when it works. Waste of money and time.

I have had several reviews approved without RM communication, so there must be more to this.

I assume you are in the US. We've discussed this many times here. In other countries we get to read the entire reviews on RM. Comments included. In the States you have to resort to some mechanism to see them. 

I ask a lot of questions and listen not only to the answers but the way they are answered. I also trust my instincts. If my instincts say "avoid" I avoid, no matter how physically attractive a guy is. 
One thing to keep in mind about reviews is they are based on the experience of someone who is not you. Their experience can be vastly different than yours. As I've said in the past, some of my most lackluster experiences have been with "forum favorites." The guys who received a plethora of over-the-top reviews and about whom the most minute criticism would be met with disdain and disbelief.
