It's partially because he wouldn't have lashed out that way had you not "suggested" a lower rate in a business transaction where bartering/negotiating is not the norm and is actively frowned upon by most people on both ends of the transaction in this hobby (particularly for new first time clients). That's the part you aren't understanding, you didn't just say hello and he bit your head off for nothing. You don't realize you effectively insulted him first. Obviously, his reaction was way over the top and tells a lot about him, but "merely suggesting" a lower rate is what caused him to initially escalate. What you're used to paying isn't an enforced standard, every provider can charge what they want and if it's a price they stick to, it's generally because they have people who are paying it and they generally aren't going to lower it (especially as drastically as you suggested) for a new first time client.
If you'd replied the same way to any other provider, most of them of course wouldn't have called you what he called you, but they'd have likely still been fairly annoyed or even mad at you, verbalized that in some less extreme way, and possibly still blocked you. If someone is charging a rate you can't afford or aren't willing to pay, you don't say "well other providers are charging less" or "well i don't think you're worth that much so you should only charge me X instead". That's effectively what you're saying to a provider when you bring up some lower price some other provider unrelated to them charges. It's an insulting suggestion to the provider and simply isn't how this works. All that's needed (if anything) at most is a "oh ok that doesn't work for me/my budget unfortunately" and move on to the next profile.
So with that knowledge/context, the issue is that you unknowingly poked a bear here by not knowing an unspoken courtesy of this hobby. That's why people are telling you about what you said more than they are criticizing the provider. The provider saying what he said sucks, literally no one here is denying or defending that. People suck and are going to say hateful shit. He's not on this thread to hear the criticism and he likely wouldn't change even if he was. Consoling you over that doesn't prevent you from unknowingly walking into this situation again with another provider, but telling you why this happened does.

The worst IMO.
Ignorantly to me it means that:
- You have no rhythm
- You don't have good length
- You're desensitized from porn that you think it's the "standard" 
 

I read it clearly. You wanted to "educate" when to some you came off as a jerk trying to bargain. 
While his rate is over my personal budget, seeing him quote $600 just off his appearance and not knowing what exactly was requested isn't a shock in this industry, in 2026. As I said both sides were wrong in the communication, moreso the provider. He shouldn't have replied at all and just blocked you. 
Societal behaviour has changed drastically post-pandemic in this digital, social media era we're currently amassed in. That's also reflected in this business as the newer, younger providers are joining. Most of them don't have the decorum, elite professionalism and respect that veteran clients would normally expect. 
When I started getting into this hobby I was taught in this forum by fellow members that your kind of response in the screenshot is frowned upon and it most cases will trigger at minimum getting blocked. 
So as you wanted to give some education to that provider, here's the education when it comes to dealing with some high-priced very young providers.

Both parties handled this wrong. 
OP was wrong with "I usually pay $300" bit. It comes off as bargaining and/or "lowballing." Could've just said the first part and thanked him. The provider rightfully blocked you.
The provider was also wrong with his vitriol after. 

Sheesh. Beautiful. 

How was your experience with AF? Been wanting to meet him but the reviews, feedback on him has always been shaky.

It is not. Not at all. 

There is no "selective enforcement". None. Female sex workers are scrutinized and being denied entry at a rate far higher than their male counterparts:
AI Overview   Female sex workers are stopped, questioned, and denied entry at international borders far more often than their male counterparts. [1, 2, 3] Border enforcement is highly gendered, and immigration officers disproportionately target women using visible cues. Officials frequently use behavioral stereotypes—scrutinizing clothing, luggage, and online social media profiles—to search for indicators of potential sex work or human trafficking. [1, 2] Because of this intense profiling, female travelers face significantly higher scrutiny when crossing into countries with strict immigration controls like the United States or Australia. [1, 2, 4]   As for Milo's tale of woe, keep in mind that the DHS pretty much denied most of what Milo claimed (see the upthread). 
Milo knew darn well that "tourists" engaging in sex work in the US is illegal. In fact, as a tourist, he is not allowed to work at all, much less derive income as a prostitute. He knew all of that, yet he continued to do so. He was stupid enough to have all of those conversations and appointments on his phone. He thought because he has Global Entry and was getting away with it for years he had a free pass to come and go as he pleases, all the while, breaking US law.. He now knows differently. Bozo has gotten pulled over for speeding, having a broken tail light, and other infractions. He didn't whine and complain and play the victim card. He paid the fine and moved on. Milo needs to do the same.

Once you're on the no-entry list you can't cross over, at least by flying. I was banned from flying to the U.S. for six years, but did a workaround by driving or taking a bus to Buffalo, then flying out of the airport from there. I'm not sure if that has changed, but land travel is generally more relaxed. 
If you're not on a no-entry list and want to avoid this from happening:
- Blur face pics, noticeable tattoos on Rentmen or keep them behind a private gallery
- Your contact number on RM should not be your personal number...have a secondary number or no number listed at all and give that out via private message
- Get a secondary phone for travel purposes only
- Do not message clients, use any accounts related to sex work on that secondary phone until after you've crossed safely into the U.S.
- If you're bringing a laptop, clear any history tied to sex work, remove any videos, photos etc (or have a secondary/travel laptop)
- Have a regular job or someone who owns a business that can just back you and say you work for them
 
 
Are they sex workers? lol. 
 
 
As someone that was detained at the airport and "banned" for six years I can speak from experience. He was flagged, brought to an interrogation room for a few hours, all his devices were searched where more evidence was found. After the emotional stress he admitted what he was travelling for either to:
A) Get it over with and go back home 
B) Thought there was a chance he could still make his trip 
He didn't willingly tell from he was an escort in the beginning, no one does that. And no one reported him. I'm pretty sure he got flagged when he was at immigration with a counter clerk and they did the facial scan. An alert went off and U.S. officials were called. 

Yes, good point. I forgot about that. 
But yeah as you said, the "star" is filming with you for free if you or your content is something they're into and want to be a part of. Otherwise you're paying. 

Yup.
I'm in a World Cup hosting city and this weekend alone is bonkers with Pride Weekend and the three parades yesterday, today and the main one tomorrow. Also an EDM Festival today, World Cup Fan Fest viewing events everywhere. Thank goodness the weather is perfect all weekend.

I always avoid hiring during Pride. I either do it the week before or wait 1-2 weeks after. Way too much going on, being exchanged, shared etc. 

They’ll charge models who have fewer followers/subscribers than them but wouldn’t charge a model of equal or greater profile. There’s a hierarchy. He’d probably charge me because I’ve a lot fewer followers but it’s hypothetical because I’d not pay to collab. I prefer to collab with guys who are wanting to film with me regardless of payment because that results in a better film given that both of us are doing it for the enjoyment, there’s no acting.

my experience with PRide is lots of visitors, but also higher rates of flake as they party and found other sexual venues

The one time I did it was at The Cock Bar in NYC. Think it was 2018 or 2019. I just asked if he does private bookings, to which he said he did. I waited until the end of the night when clear out started, posted up outside and he came up to me and we exchanged numbers. 

Great body, great nips, no tats!

It's real. Don't know why had/has two accounts but that is real. 

Damn. Hope filming was included in that rate haha.

It wouldn't shock me. Paying to collab is a request that some make.
