It was called The Deli back when Hoo Boy ran the site. I've always assumed this was the inspiration for "The Deli."

I don't think it will have any effect on the escorting business. I'm not amazed by this. From time to time, we have threads on here about perceived, potential issues with law enforcement. It stems from fear of being caught doing something naughty, like having sex with another man. I knew a guy who believed that if he paid for a book about coming out with a credit card, "they" would be able to use the transaction record to inform his employer that he bought said book. He never could explain who "they" were, nor could he explain why his employer would care.

For years, the agreements between merchants and the card associations, Amex, and Discover did not allow merchants to charge a fee for card use. That's not to say merchants didn't do it, but if they were reported they would get penalized. If a merchant repeatedly violated their agreement, they would be prohibited from accepting cards. I believe a recent court ruling found that card issuers could not prohibit merchants from charging extra for card use. Of course, that ruling will be appealed. It will be a strange mix of card issuers and consumer groups working together on that issue. Several states allow a cash discount, which does not violate the merchant agreement.

Beta versions of websites typically have bugs. The purpose of releasing a beta version to the public is to get feedback and to identify issues that aren't/can't be caught in a test environment.

That's exactly what I thought!!

Long ago I was with a guy who asked me to rinse with antiseptic mouthwash between rimming and kissing him. Seemed like a reasonable request at the time and still does. The thing about rimming is even when a guy has a clean hole, "stuff" can still happen.

Glad to hear you found a provider who is interested in what you enjoy and want. As others have stated, you can always ask if sending a clip of what you are looking for would be OK. Another approach would be to approach him as a "safe space" to practice asking directly what it is you want. Then again, it seems he exceled at figuring out what you wanted organically, so maybe relaxing and letting your sessions evolve will prove successful. BTW: It has been a few days since your playdate. How did it go? Did you send him the porn clips?

That was my impression when I subscribed to their OF.

That's what I have started giving my niece and nephew. I'd give $100 for HS.

I don't care. As long as I have a good time, it doesn't matter to me what the provider thinks.

Moderator's Note: Several posts have asked whether the topic is about providers who are 60 and over or men in general. In this post, the OP clarified he is referring to providers. Now that we have cleared up the confusion, let's get back to the topic and refrain from commenting about each other. Thank you

Two of the most revered escorts on this forum are 55 or older. Dane Scott is 58 and Jake Mitchell is 55. I can't find DavidInSF's ad at the moment, but he is also 55. Aside from Mike Gaite, I can't think of any escorts who are recommended as frequently as these guys. A majority of the time, there are no experiences about any escort that is inquired about. This is a small community, so it makes sense that most members haven't hired most escorts. On Rentmen, there are 27 providers who are 60 or older. That doesn't allow for many inquiries about providers who are >60 years old. My guess is providers either retire or do something else by the time they reach 60.

He is from the UK and was there until very recently. Given the forum is US-focused (with some exceptions) this isn't surprising. Also, I check the UK RM listings pretty frequently and have never seen his ad. He might be re-starting his escort work.

Citi received a bailout that was later converted to an equity interest and loan guarantees. According to Citi's "Bank Find" profile, they "maintained operations with open bank assistance," which means they failed and were rescued by the federal government rather than being seized. Bank of America also received a bailout, but in early 2009. Like Citi, the FDIC lists them as having "maintained operations with open bank assistance." The difference between TARP and an outright bailout is twofold: 1) TARP was intended to help banks avoid becoming insolvent (Citi was already effectively insolvent) and 2) Healthy banks were strongly encouraged (i.e. forced) to take the money regardless of financial condition to avoid bank runs caused by a perception that specific banks were on the brink of failure. That's why healthy institutions like Chase took TARP money. Citi was the victim of mortgages going bad. BofA was the victim of good ol' fashioned dick-swinging. After Chase acquired Bear Stearns, the then-chair of BofA had to show Jamie Dimon that his dick was bigger and acquired Countrywide and Merrill Lynch. Sadly, that did not work out very well. Both institutions were treated the same as Continental Illinois was back in the 1980's after the Penn Square debacle. Fun fact: Bank of America eventually acquired Continental Bank. TARP funds were used to fund at least one bank merger that avoided a failure. National City was in deep trouble and PNC accepted TARP money which was used to acquire them. They were also used by healthy banks as a way of funding takeovers of banks that had failed.

Thanks for posting this. Not sure how I missed it! Yeah, gross mismanagement is another thing that brings banks down. Funny story: In the early aughts Chase moved several street-level branches in NYC from the first to the second floor of buildings to save on rent. Commerce then leased the former Chase space. A friend wasn't paying attention and walked into what he thought was a Chase branch, when in fact it was a Commerce branch, and opened an account. He was not pleased when he realized what he had done. He wasn't the only one who did this. That nonsense ended when Bank One acquired Chase.

Maybe they include the tip. 🤷‍♂️

I've been part of the forum (in its various incarnations) for more than twenty years. This is nothing new. Some guys describe what they want, and others don't. It varies.

And his Rentmasseur ad has expired.

IIRC, at one time you had to save your messages to the archive for them to be retained past a certain time period (don't recall what that period was). I've been pretty diligent about deleting or saving messages, so I can't tell you whether this is still the case, because none of the messages in my Inbox are that old. I suggest you asking Rentmasseur.

Although I tried to set up a time with him when he was visiting a few years ago, he never responded to my inquiry. Same thing happened in advance of him visiting Palm Springs. (It's a four-hour drive from Phoenix, so I would have made the trip). So...I moved on.

I also hired him recently. I found his body to be very hot and muscular, he was as nice as always, but he tried to cut the session short. We ended up spending the entire hour together. He remembered that I like a strong musk and certainly delivered in that department. His breath could have been fresher, however. Not sure about repeating.

Which is why it is always a good idea to ask the provider about his rate.

When writing reviews, I include the rate I paid without the tip.

He started out pretty hunky and then progressively gained weight. IIRC, he intentionally gained weight, but don't quote me on that. It's been a while since I last looked at his ad.
