former lurker

And all the others say they are not. The negative reviewer has two reviews. The one on thom_ody and one positive review of Dior Jordan, discussed recently in other posts and roundly criticized. Several of thom_ody's reviews are from people who submitted reviews of multiple escorts. I'd tend to be wary of the sole negative review for these reasons.

Great sentiments! His well-being is most important, and yes, he gets the engine revving!

What's the price tag? I didn't see one in the RM ad.

You may know better than I, but I thought studios were shying away from him after he was such a prolofic performer before the charges surfaced. Maybe he's more open to escorting, though, if he's getting less porn and underwear modeling gigs.

He seems to be laying low since Andrew Christain ditched him in the wake of all the allegations of sexual assault and harassment against him.

You have guys in NYC that ask for less than $200/hour? For full escort services? That seems below market, although I guess if they're "regulars" you may have a discount off of their usual fees.

I agree about the Facebook creepiness. I'm not into Facebook and social media -- the lawyer in me thinks oversharing is inviting trouble, and that in person communication is less apt to be misunderstood and if it is, such misunderstandings are more likely to be caught and corrected in person. My sense is that Facebook accounts remain eternally there unless someone has the passwords to control the account and close it. I suppose the legal representative, if any, of the deceased could instruct Facebook to disable the account. Unless the deceased left instructions to do so, however, it's unlikely it would even occur to a legal rep of the estate.

I may be wrong, but I think I recall it was someone who worked for Rory's father's company who found the pictures and turned them over to his father.

From what I've read, Rory was more or less recruited to replace the prior Jesse Jaymes with the handler setting up the RM ad and fielding client requests, but that Rory would give his direct contact info to clients once he met them.

I'm happy for you! And jealous.

Saying the hair is dyed but the cock is real, and confirming that's based on meeting him, seems explicit to me. And, since you're a fan of explicit language, perhaps make your question more explicit that, "so he's real?" He exists, and is as he's portrayed per a user who met him. If you need more detailed information, be explicit as to what info you want/need. I don't want to come off as rude, but someone gave you the info you requested, and then you repeated the question. Comes off as not terribly appreciative of the response.

Searching isn't the problem, obviously, when someone resurrects multiple prior threads. The two remedies that spring to mind are restraint/consideration and a tech fix by the mods merging the threads into one. Of course, that won't prevent someone from starting another thread in addition to the merged thread.

It was good of you to contact Rentmen. I realize that it's a business and they use form letters, but it seems odd to me that they didn't add a mention that they are sorry to hear of Jake's passing.

Well, I suppose those who might know the guy by his proximity to the Ohloff recovery house will know the city. There may be others who would know even if they don't know the Ohloff recovery house or did an incall with the guy and don't know where he lived. So, for the rest of us, perhaps naming the city would still be useful.

I disagree. I've hired a number of guys who identify as bi, and even some who are more straight outside of escorting, but are nevertheless great in the escort setting (affectionate, and fully interactive). I've also hired gay escorts who were more "exclusively" either top or bottom than the bi guys.

Read post 5-7 above. That's your answer.

Why are you repeating a question that has already been answered?

Who is the "he"? The handler?

Why did you start a second thread to ask the same question you just asked in a preexisting thread? Someone else bumped several threads about the same escort yesterday. It clutters up the forum and drives readers nuts. Also, because it's annoying, it may make readers less anxious to help you out with info, etc.

I sympathize with your interest. I'd love to know too. I suspect, however, that he will either not "return" or will do so in very non-public ways like word of mouth with an insistence on discretion. We've likely heard the last of him for a long while on forums and on RM type sites.

And then one person responds to each of those duplicative threads and all of them end up in a lengthy succession.

I got that. Perhaps I misunderstood you're earlier post. When you said "but when I asked" I read that to mean you expected, before contacting him, that he'd travel to your location on his own and that you only found out he expected you to cover travel costs after you contacted him. That's why I asked what I did. Sorry if I've caused any confusion.

Exactly so. If more experienced reviewers shy away from someone who has multiple "first" reviews, it'll be pretty tough for the escort to garner reviews except from first time reviewers. I'd also note that all we really can tell from the designation of "first review" is that the client hadn't submitted a review before then. Perhaps he has since, or perhaps he has hired many times but not submitted a review.

I was trying to capture the gist of the sentiment you expressed. I could have use more modern vernacular, such as "ageist", but thought "old coots" was a lighter touch. Funny thing about language, although new terms come into vogue, the older phrases remain and are accessible to people born after those phrases were introduced into the parlance. I'm older than you, but not by much. Certainly not enough that any difference of opinion as to how Billy looked in his earlier vids vs. his later photo you took could be attributed to a difference in age. And to be clear, my comment wasn't about him looking less clean cut, it was more about his physique which was damn fine in your photo, but sheer perfection in those earlier videos. One more thought about taking the picture yourself. It's probably not just pride of authorship. There's an "it" factor when someone who you know from film/tv is in your direct presence. Call it charisma, or whatever term suits you. Seeing someone "famous" in real life adds an extra element that can be quite charming/endearing. In any event, no matter how others react to the photo you posted, you got to be with him in person and enjoy that experience. That's great.

What you see as inconsistency in the reviews, I see as diversity among the reviewers. We all have our own priorites. You've made yours very clear over and again. You focus on whether the escort is gay, whether he is a bottom/will bottom, and whether he wet-kisses. Others are less focused on one or more of those factors, and are quite satisfied with an escort who doesn't bottom, who doesn't kiss or dry-kisses, etc. I'll agree that more information is better, but chances are any review is going to reflect the reviewer's priorities and not go into things he didn't care about or do. So, the reviews can tell you some things, while others that are important to you/any potential client will best be gleaned from asking the escort.
