I totally trust reviews, especially if they are from multiple users and say the same thing. I live in small city and this week is the busy week ever for the travelers. We even have the notorious JasonSparks traveling troop coming through.... The bad thing is that one really hot guy has bad reviews. Juanlatinstud, a guy I've had my eye on for a while only has 2.3 out of 5 and that is big stay away sign for me. I've been burned a few times and don't like to waste my hard earned money! Sad weekend too...the one traveler on backpage I tried to hire didn't even respond when I started talking dates and times. Sigh.... then again...backpage isn't all that trustworthy...
