Yes his pictures aren’t that recent but his massages are great and his rates are very reasonable. I’ve seen him at least 10 times over the years and have never been up charged. I highly recommend him.

As much as I agree with your statement after all we've talked about daddy's passing I don't think it's time for Monday morning quaterback or coulda woulda shoulda. Daddy didn't expect to die so relatively young and so sudden, life simply happens and sometimes we're not prepared for the unexpected as others later think we should have been.
The situation was what it was when @Orin @RadioRob and so many others saved the site. They certainly made lemonade with what they faced and we're grateful for their labor!

+ LS299B reacted to + Orin in Fundraiser Closed - mission accomplished!
You are all most welcome. Doing this was our way to honor our friend (and 'water-brother' for any Heinlein fans out there) Bill. Deb is currently in upstate NY, caring for her mother, and will return in another month or two. When we are back together, we'd be honored to have a fine dinner out, and to raise a glass to Bill and the community here.

To the M4M Community:
You stepped up and helped navigate a thorny transition, and secure the future of the M4M Site and Community.
Almost $11,000 was raised!
Team Washington, led by @Orin, used some of the money for travel to/from Las Vegas to secure the computers in Daddy's apartment Some money was also used to move the site to new hosting servers etc. and secure a new Domain name Team Washington has now transferred the remaining money to @RadioRob and all remaining funds will be used to support costs associated with the ongoing operation of the site.
There is another phase still to be worked out - which is the long term plan for supporting the site. I'm going to leave that plan to others....but with confidence that this community can and will figure that out. We now have plenty of runway to sort that out.
Thanks again to all for your support at a critical time. This community really pulled together in an incredible way!

+ LS299B reacted to RadioRob in Updated Search System
Search is one of the most commonly used features within the site. Given that we have over 125,000 topics and 1.7 million replies, there is a lot of valuable information to be found.
The default search system used by both Xenforo and Invision is to just directly query the database used for the site. This system worked, but can be slow and can sometimes miss results. In IPB, it also did not play nice with full URLs such as links to RM profile pages.
I've switched the site to use a new search backend known as "ElasticSearch". This system should return results near instantly and use much less system resources.
This change is simply on the backend. So you will continue searching the way you do today. What results and how they're returned by the system is what is changing. I'm making this post so no one is surprised if the search results look a little different than they do today.
To help you get the most out of finding content, below are a few tips that will help get the best results.
RadioRob's Tips for Searching
When you enter multiple words, the system is applying an "OR" operator to it. For example.... if you search for: apples bananas
The search results would return results which include either apples OR bananas If you want to find an exact phrase, put it in quotation marks. If you're looking for Matt Gaetz
The system will try to prioritize search results that have BOTH phrases, but still return results that have either Matt OR Gaetz in the results. If you want only the full name, type in: "Matt Gaetz"
to find that exact phrase. Try not to search URLs. While the system will support it, the results may not be as accurate as they might possibly be. For example: https://rent.men/bradleyblack
If you search this, the parser is looking at it as: http OR rent.men OR bradleyblack There are many results that would have two more more of those phrases. So you can search for "https://rent.men/bradleyblack" and get results that have that EXACT result.
While this will return the results that match that exact phrase, but you might miss out on some posts about Bradley because there are times when someone only mentions their profile name without the address or they use a different URL such as https://rentmen.eu/bradleyblack. My recommendation to see the MOST results is to search ONLY the person's username.
bradleyblack Even if you don't decide to take my advice and just search for the full address, it won't just choke up and time out like the old system did before. It will return results.... but maybe not the best possible results.
FYI... the new search index is about 75% complete. It should be finished by 2:00 AM Eastern. You can actively search now, but just realize some results may not show up yet until it gets finished with the task.
Happy Searching!

He changed his name… here’s the previous topic on him. Doesn’t look like anyone has met up with him yet. He does have a Twitter and Instagram out there.

I felt his "gift" in several spots in my body, but I didn't attempt to reach for it.
What? Here's my motto: "if the meat ain't for sale don't hang it in the window."

Your spidey sense should be tingling.
On grinder MOST if not ALL "masseurs" are fake. They send you a link for a "reservation" where you typically have to put in a credit card.
I would be VERY cautious about this. NEVER pre-pay for a massage!!!

+ LS299B reacted to Trick in Massage by Alex, formerly Sensualex
A nude masseur asking not to be touched won’t work with me. I’d be face down at least half the time and even after I turn over, it would be awkward to stare the whole time. It’s the touching and the fondling that counts.

You know you can just PM someone directly yourself, right? You don't need to ask them in the forum to PM you.

mkm556 - Welcome to the Forum. Have you thought about starting a new thread? Might be better than diverting a perfectly good 100+ pages of "Hottest Massage" thread. Just sayin'

+ LS299B reacted to RadioRob in COMING SOON: New Forum Organization
After speaking with the other moderators, it has been observed the organization of the forums is a little unnatural and seems to be sorted based on when they were created. As a result I will be looking to reorganize the forum listings a bit. Below is an outline of how we plan to organize the display:
Updated 5/5:
Announcements
Site News *
[*]General Discussion
The Lounge
The Cabana
[*]Daddy's Den
The Deli
The Spa
Ask A Provider
Male Strip-Clubs
Fetish Forum
[*]Media and Entertainment
Political Issues
Movies
TV and Streaming Services
Music
Lincoln Center (Opera) *
[*]Live Theater and Broadway
[*]The Gallery
[*]The Sports Desk
[*]Literature
[*]Destinations
Traveling Providers
Traveling Members
The Americas **
Europe
Africa/Asia/Australia
Street Scenes
[*]Back Office
Tech Talk
Features and Feedback *
* New forum to be created.
** Expanded from South America to all North/South America travel outside of the US
I did not want to just spring this on everyone unannounced, so my goal is to share the plan here first and then make the change in the next few days. If you have any questions or would like to propose a name for the Lounge/Cabana container, feel free to reply below.

+ LS299B reacted to Cooper in Who Will Own and Run The Forum?
I just reread all the wonderful ideas and suggestions posted by concerned members. It’s a great idea to plan ahead. The sudden passing of @Guy Fawkes hit many of us hard. To me he was a mentor and strong supporter who trusted me enough with all the tools of his site. Jokingly, he used to say to me: “Cooper, when accessing the Administrator Tools, never touch the red button”. I will always miss our daily chats.
It’s now been over a month since his passing and so much has taken place to preserve his legacy. Guy had some really good friends in Team Washington. They came to our rescue. Later today I’ll be talking with @RadioRob to discuss M4M’s future.
There’s been a lot of good information shared in this thread. We all know that in order to move ahead we need a death certificate and a court ruling. If all goes smoothly, a new owner is needed. Hopefully, that person is tech savvy or can hire someone who is. The new owner will decide how to run the site and what needs he has. If necessary, I’ll offer my assistance but would completely understand if a new team is wanted.
Guy was a one man operation. He knew everything about running the sites and took good care at protecting his operations. Very similar as did TotallyOz of Boy Toy and Ace Banner of Muscle Service.
As for raising money to pay the bills, we’ve seen how it can be done. My compliments go out to @JEC for organizing a very successful GoFundMe drive. Thanks to all the members who contributed. You’ve proven how important it is to keep the site going. Also, a special thanks to @Coolwave35 for so generously offering to take care of future site expenses.
So, what have I been up to during this transition. I’ve been working with one of our new moderators, @Daverwr. His “powers” now include every forum. Welcome aboard... With Dave on the W Coast and I on the E Coast we basically have the site covered 24/7. If you ever need to contact us just click on report and one of us will get back to you.
A new Forum has just been created. Many of you had asked for a separate forum to discuss sports topics. I agreed and now we have “The Sports Desk.” So, stop by and tells us about your favorite teams or players and what you’re looking forward to in the Olympics.
I have lots more to share but I don’t want to compete with one of our favorite contributors @stevenkesslar for the longest message.
If you have any questions feel free to start a conversation with me. And, please continue sharing your thoughts and ideas on your visions for our future.
Cooper
