I was just curious as to if Daddy's Reviews is also under reconstruction?  I tried clicking on the site, but comes up with an error.

Thanks!

The folder was moved by mistake when I moved all of the Xenforo files.  I restored the archive and it appears to be back online.

Is Daddy's Reviews down? When I try to go there, I get the following:

 

This site can’t be reached

www.daddysreviews.com took too long to respond.

Click the Reviews link at the top of this forum and you will be taken to https://www.companyofmen.org/escorts/ .  Not formatted the same as the legacy site, but I think the information is still there.

That is correct. The archive is Daddy’s site. It is something that I was able to copy from his server before we lost access to it permanently in July. It was a self-coded site that had a lot of manual processes for it and the only one who really knew what happened under the covers was Daddy. 

It’s not feasible to continue trying to support running the review site with its current code. As a result I’m creating a new review site.  It literally is being built from the ground up so it’s taken some time to get together. 

Once complete, we will accept new reviews. Over time we will copy the existing reviews from Daddy’s into the new review site.

This is good news. I'm in the habit of leaving reviews on Rentmen when I hire from there, which is basically my go-to for finding new providers. Now that I am fully vaxxed and the situation in Canada is pretty good altho still warranting taking precautions, it will be nice to have another review site.

just re-upping the link to the old Daddy's......play around with the buttons to get to old reviews, different locations within a state, inactive/all reviews, name/date/location, etc......keep in mind that these only include reviews up to about January, 2021.....and many of these providers are, of course, not available anymore

Thank you RadioRob. I miss Daddy's Reviews. It was an excellent and reliable source of information. Thank you for working on resurrecting it. Do you accept donations towards that project?

You can see the work in progress at:

@azdr0710 also was kind enough to share a link to the original Daddy’s review site that I was able to export/save onto our server before we lost access to Daddy’s original server.  

There are several things I’m working though, including

  • Trying to improve the review details itself.  (Looking to include info about the provider AND the review in a single view.)
  • Trying to add more details that would not be available to guests.  (Top/bottom, endowment size, etc)
  • Finalizing the review vetting process.  (What exactly needs to be verified to approve a review, how long does a provider have to respond to a review before publishing, etc.)

If you would like to donate to support the effort, you can do so at:

This is a 100% from the ground up rebuild and is a significant undertaking as the legacy site run by Daddy was manually maintained.  A good deal of my efforts are being built around automation, security, and those “under the hood” features that make the site work.  (For example, I have the framework in place to do something like Daddy did with having reviews be viewable by name, potentially by date, or even by a location map.)

This is taking longer than I hoped due to my real life job as well as needing to develop tools for the forum here itself.  I’ve enhanced the site search capability, added new moderator tools, implemented automated tools to stop MOST forum spamming (versus needing to manually approve ALL new registrations), added additional security tools to protect the site/data from being exploited.  These are all very important things that are needed, but there is only one of me so I have to balance it all.  

The moderators do a great job of handling most of the “front of the house” issues such as making sure rules are followed and answering questions.  It lets me focus more on the “back of the house” stuff that I described above…. which includes the new review site.
