I wish I could rebut your position, but what happened was indeed unacceptable.  And I’m sorry he treated you, and others, like he did
 

This guy may have provided some good sessions, however, his extremely egregious behavior goes way beyond immaturity or having a bad day.  This guy is a menace and a risk for anyone who hires him as well as this website.  This level of warning, to be pinned to the top of the page by the primary moderator of this site is unprecedented from what I’ve seen on this site.  That fact alone should be evidence that this guy should be put out of business.  I hope this thread stays pinned and bumped until it comes up as the top google result for the search of Jestwink.
and while I double down on his cancellation as an escort, I do hope he gets mental health help and maybe use his education to find a new career path.

The word "luxury" is an instant boner killer. Along with "luxury" brand apparel, etc... in the photos. Like anything posted on an internet forum, that's just me, though. 🤷‍♂️

We simply have a very different views. To me, such comment is a mind game, but a pro move nonetheless. Professional to me simply means one is excellent at what they do - are they honest or ethical? Thts beside their competency.
I simply see that sort of comments as part of escorting business - so a provider excell at such game is a pro from my pov. Whether or not I be keen to participate in the game is another story.

Agreed!
In this era of "Grindr fatigue" even young hot guys are contemplating hiring. 
Btw whoever coined the phrase "hiring out of convenience not necessity" should be paid royalties. 

You seem a good and compassionate man, and I both thank and admire you for it.
As for JesTwink, two things:
We reap what we sow [brought it on himself] Confession is good for the soul [a sincere apology statement might go a long way]

Welcome to the Internet!
Learn to use the ignore function. It has greatly increased my enjoyment of this site.

We’ve all seen it happen: A benign thread on this site that gets derailed by haughty and venomous users who seemingly delight in belittling and bullying others. Sometimes their comments reflect an inability, or maybe an unwillingness, to accept that others simply disagree with them. Perhaps more disturbing are the times when their spite and snark emerge with no clear provocation, leaving the rest of us to wonder whether participating on this site is worth the hassle. Either way, this mean girl dynamic — the bullying of fellow users into submission and silence — is difficult to avoid on Company of Men, and it undermines this site as a space where all of us can convene and connect.
 
Outside of reporting such behavior to site administrators — an imperfect response that raises its own set of challenges — I see no clear path toward curbing this dynamic on CoM. (If others have suggestions, feel free to share.) I am naming it here for the benefit of others who, like me, are troubled by the mean-spiritedness of some of our fellow site members. You are not crazy; some of our peers on CoM are terribly unkind, and their petty and spiteful communication styles can make it difficult to spend time here.
 
And sure, this is not unique to CoM. Aggressive and malicious comments from others pervade practically every online domain imaginable. But I find the mean girl dynamic on CoM particularly disheartening because of the purpose of this site. As a gay man of a certain age who is often invisible in bars and clubs catering to the gym-bodied under-40 crowd, and who engages in the type of encounters discussed on this site, I don’t have many people that I can talk to about my specific “extracurricular activities.” (I imagine this is the case for some — not all, but some — of you as well.) I was so relieved when I finally discovered this site after years of wasting time and money on unskilled providers just looking to make a quick buck. I was also incredibly grateful for the outlet (and on some days, the lifeline) this site provided during the COVID lockdown. CoM has the potential to nurture a spirit-lifting camaraderie for those of us who struggle to find it elsewhere. I wish some of us weren’t so seemingly hellbent on tearing others down.
 
Note: I have not named any specific users in this post, as the issue at hand extends beyond any single user. I implore anyone who chooses to comment on this thread to follow suit.

I don't mind if a guy shaves a couple of years here and there, especially if they look the part. But 17-18 years is a bit much. 

I never hire under age 35. Once you get in that range, 1-2 yr discrepancy from fact isn’t a thing at all. 
As for accurate measurements, I say let’s eliminate length. Girth and displacement by volume are better predictors. We’re all liquid once inside, aren’t we? 
“oh, him? - he’s got barely a half pint”

While we’re discussing adding characteristics to Rentmen, perhaps the penis size should include elaboration on how it was measured.  

No, on RM age is a drop down menu choice, not a date entry that updates automatically.

It’s very common in the southern United States for people to address others older or more senior than them as sir or ma’am. It’s simply a sign of respect.

I find that it’s “sir” when they are a bit abashed about not remembering my name and they haven’t yet caught on that “bitch” can acceptably sub. 

There’s no accounting for taste. I disagree with a lot of people’s opinions on this site as I’m sure they would disagree with mine. 

LOL! Probably his "Dad" is President Macron, no less!!!

wow, I'm now apparently "blocked" when trying to open his RM profile!....never happened before with any provider......apparently because of me questioning his age in a DM we had a couple months ago......he also wanted me to see about having this entire thread deleted because his Dad is a "French diplomat" and a googling of his real name evidently leads to this thread - he said.........

Also goes by JestwinkX JestwinkXx and JestwinkXXX
and has at least 12 profiles on Company of men
more red flags than a Beijing patriot parade

time to show my appreciation.   $$

Thank you for all your hard work, migrating a site like this one is no small task, especially without prior notice.
Would you mind sharing the name of the previous hosting provider? While it's understandable that a host might take issue with a site like this, abruptly shutting it down without warning is both  inconsiderate and very unprofessional.

Of course. I know bodybuilders charge more both because of the extra work put in, and the cost of maintaining their physique.

I have to ask...
Which provider decided to dump the site? I'm assuming they didn't give a reason, but we all know what it is.

I prefer to think of it as a "hookup upgrade."

You shouldn't. Because it's NOT political. It's a religious issue. Particularly in the growing Catholic and Muslim population in the US. 

If only the queer knew the meaning of discrete
