You have pot at your office?! Check you out ya lucky bastard!

Oui, Monsieur Carey. (If you read this like a Frenchman, that’s a nice rhyme!)

I feel your pain, @biggerbilly I (now) hare that feature, too. I’ve seen a few ads for Suffolk and, since we all know how huge Suffolk is, I click on map me. There’s only two guys that show on the map as being in Suffolk. All the other guys, even if they’re “based in: Suffolk” show a NYC map when you click map me. At first I thought it was where he was at that given minute (like Grindr), but soon learned, as you did, the feature is pointless for Long Islanders.

Even the admin on that board had something relatively negative to say about him. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that. I was actually stunned. He’s a hard pass as far as I’m concerned.

Where did you initially find him back then? I mean what site. His name and/or description really doesn’t ring a bell with me, especially since I like Italian masseurs and probably would’ve booked had I seen him advertised. That’s why I was wondering.

Sommamabitch! Who let them in on the secret dammit? I’ll bet it was Chet. It was Chet, wasn’t it?

I got a message saying they’ll be back up in 47 minutes (an odd number), so I assume it was scheduled maintenance.

You are correct, of course, which is why discretion is in order. I personally like to think (even if I’m deceiving myself) that: 1) the NYPD has better things to do; and 2) the owners have invested a lot of money into these spas, so I doubt they’d be willy-nilly with their business. Interesting aside...where I live, every time they bust a “massage parlor” (really female R&T joints), they never arrest the customers. They arrest the staff, usually for practicing without a license (which is a felony in NY), because unless they’re in the room with you and can see “activity” in exchange for a larger tip (let’s say) they have no way of proving it in court.

To put it simply, no. I don’t know where this urban legend comes from, but it’s ridiculous to think any undercover operation in the United States could come to a screeching halt merely by asking someone “are you a cop?” The very notion of that is preposterous.

I’m thinking of going on Wednesday. I would not like an Asian masseur (only because all of the places on Long Island are Asian—so it’s very easy for me to do that here). How do you go about that? It seems from past posts calling for an appt. doesn’t work, and do you get to select your guy as a walk-in? Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Must agree with myophile here and say Apollo. Without a doubt the nicest guy you’ll want to meet. With everything he has to be arrogant about if he wanted to, there’s not an ounce of it in him. And genuine nice guy. Just one example: he knows I’m into football and, during the season, sometimes he texts me about the games. Why? Just to keep in touch and be a nice guy. He’s still around, but doesn’t advertise (at least I haven’t found an ad for him recently). The next time I see him I’ll ask if it’s OK to give out his contact info.

I’m not saying some of the posts on that thread didn’t violate the TOS. What I’m more upset about is the scorched-earth policy of taking down EVERY post from the thread, regardless. I’m tired of everyone being punished for one person’s screw up (and I don’t mean just here, but in work life too). If a poster, or a post, violates the rules, take THAT post and/or that poster down, but not literally years of past posts by nuking the whole thread!

I’m sorry, but I don’t see the point. Why should we start a new thread, especially one that was probably the most active on this whole board, only for the mods to shut it down again because someone did or said something they were supposed to and lose all that knowledge? That’s really effed up to me. Not worth it.

GREAT work, nomadic. Awesome idea, too.

Anyone have any info on this guy? I realize NY is more NYC-centric, but I thought he may have been in the City at one time. Any help appreciated. https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/34976/

Already been covered but deserves another mention: “Going forward.” I don’t know when it entered the lexicon, but it drives me nuts. Also, “so...” as the first word in response to a question: “How long have you worked here?” “So, it’s been about 2 years.” “Did you come up with this product on your own and did someone help you?” “So, my friend Jezebel and I came up with it.” Aaaargh.

I totally agree with that, Benjamin. In fact, based on some escort’s responses on these threads, they have made me want to hire them even more.

I love the way you put that. As though someone went out there and “installed” mountains. I’ve said things like that before. I was in Denver once and saw a mountain range and told my friends, “I’ll bet you they painted those mountains so they look like the mountains on the Coors Light bottles.”

Do not ask “are you in law enforcement?” in your texts. It makes you look amateurish and implies you’re doing something illegal. Aside from that, in spite of the widely held (and ridiculous) belief that a cop must tell you he’s a cop, he doesn’t. So there’s no point in asking anyway.

@AJ Doyle Thank you for your response. Please don’t inhibit your postings because someone disagrees with you. After all, this is a discussion forum and requires posts to survive. Besides, you’ll always find someone to disagree with a stance you take and it’s no reflection on you (or them). I can post “I like blue cars” and someone will invariably come back with a litany of posts spelling out why I’m an idiot for liking blue instead of yellow cars. It’s life on message boards, so please don’t let that dissuade you from posting.

That’s definitely fair, and I would have no problem with that if I were hiring you. I was more referring to the people who specifically say they won’t send one. Those I will not hire. Best of luck, and I hope you get to the outskirts of New York City soon! I would love to hire you.

@Heywood01 that link was taken down maybe a day after it was posted. But it was a person at the location on DPA in North Bab. As for the Manhasset location, up until that other site shut down, they were still advertising, so I assume they’re still there. I only went to that location twice and it was at least 4 years ago, so I don’t have the contact info, but they definitely do take walk-ins, because I had done that, too. I only booked via phone because I wanted to try a 4-handed there. If you go to the address, they are on the second floor. If you Google maps the location you can almost look through the glass door and see it’s only a staircase to upstairs, so you’re not passing through a store or anything.

If he was, I didn’t read it that way because of his syntax. Also, I’ve seen honest-to-goodness comments on other sites literally arguing that calling the cops is the appropriate thing to do, which I always found weird.

But he didn’t know any of this information when he posted it. So, just because, in this particular case, the pictures MAY be fake (we still don’t know), and it was a google phone (which none of us would know if we didn’t look it up), it’s OK that this person wholly violated the number one thing trusted and relied upon in his profession: discretion? No way, no excuse or apology will make this right.

@AJ Doyle I think that should be brought up before the appointment. I do not like a condom for oral and that would be a major influence in me hiring you. To not bring it up ahead of time is disingenuous to me. Note: I’m not saying you shouldn’t perform oral without a condom if that’s your thing, but at least let the client know ahead of time.
