For me, the existence of a link to a twitter page in a RM ad is a red flag.  Nine out of ten times the content on the twitter page is enough to gross me out or ruin the fantasy image I had created in my head.  I will probably pass if I see any mention of a OF page.

I'm reading these stories and I suddenly remember I have my own story. A few years ago, I went with straight friends to spend a few days at an upscale Marriott resort in Orlando.  We did this a number of times.  My best friend (straight female) and I would always share a room to save on expenses.  Her sister and husband would have an adjoining room.  On this particular trip, I started chatting with a guy on Grindr and after a day or two, I was beginning to think I would never get an opportunity to meet.  I couldn't get away without it being obvious.  On the last day of our trip, they all decide to go downstairs and over-eat at the buffet.  I wasn't hungry, so I stayed in our room.  He was suddenly available to meet, so I gave him my room number and invited him over for a quickie while my friends ate dinner downstairs.  I was scared to death they would return while he was in the middle of sucking me off.  It would have been incredibly embarrassing if I was caught and I'm sure they would have been pissed.  Don't get me wrong, they all know I'm gay and are OK with the concept.  But they've never been faced with seeing me be actively gay.  I managed to get him out of the room with a few minutes to spare.  I still smile when I think about that close call.  He was a hottie and inappropriately young for me (not illegal though).

Who can even afford the cereal?  At my local grocery store, they sell a box of the plain Cheerios (no honey OR nut) for almost $9.  Add $4 for a gallon of milk and that's some expensive meal.

This advice is probably the best advice I've seen in this thread and shouldn't be overlooked.  An advisor should only get paid by you for their service to you, not by receiving commissions from selling you garbage investments with high fees.  If they won't sign a fiduciary agreement with you, tell them goodbye.

Clark.com might be a place to look.

Again, this is the role of the legal system. I agree his case should be heard without prejudice and the full assumption of innocence. But there is no right to a presumption of innocence in the court of public opinion.

Oh my God! Such over-reactions.  Go back and reread the original news article at the beginning of this thread.  The charge is "one count of distribution and receipt of child pornography, and one count of possession of child pornography"  Nowhere does it say he participated in the videos or knew anything about the creation of them.  If that were the case, there would be additional charges, especially if each video is considered a crime scene like the FBI says.
I can easily see a scenario where he was set up..... think about it.  He's probably made a few enemies over the years.  Let's say he pisses off the wrong guy by posting a video without consent.  This guy decides to get even by flooding his Telegram account with all these disgusting videos... then calls the FBI.  The FBI is only too eager to have a splashy headline about an unsympathetic character and boy did they ever get it with this case!  Is this scenario really too far fetched?
Don't get me wrong... I'm not defending him.  But I do think there's more to the story that hasn't come out.  If I'm ever accused of a crime, I hope no one from this forum is on my jury.

Thank you, moderators for keeping us from going too far off the rails.  Your work is appreciated.

Wow.  Everyone stays somewhere, even if they're home.  Perhaps this is someone who might not be comfortable supplying personal information, if the answer to the initial question is unsatisfactory.  Perhaps that's why no intro and why he's using RM messaging.  He's not asking for an address, but most likely a part of town.  In a large metropolitan area, it matters to many of us and could be a deal killer.  By getting it out of the way early, this is the opposite of a game player.  I see this as someone who is asking a legitimate question and not getting an answer. 
As to the OP's question, if I took the time to reach out to a potential provider and got an auto-reply and nothing else, I would probably move on.  To me, it says "I don't want to deal with you unless I have to." 

My favorite ad was: I like dead presidents. Ben Franklin is my fav
SMH, ohhh how the American education system has failed us.

I don't understand RM ads like this... the description is for non-sexual massage.  There's no "I'm into" section.  Too many "Ask me" responses.  I'm not going to try to contact him, because I have no idea of what we'd do. Is this ambiguity intentional?

I bought my lifetime senior pass at the entrance to Glacier National Park in June as we were entering the park (Going-to-the-sun Road is unbelievable).  I just asked the guy at the gate and he said I could get it right there, so I did (only took a minute).  I used it at Devil's Tower and Badlands National Park, but didn't need it at Mt Rushmore.
