No more X pics on RM?

[+ JamesB]

I can see the X pics as long as I’m in the US, but once I’m outside (using a VPN), no luck. So at this point, it’s either I get to see dicks or read the reviews but apparently not both at the same time. 😒

Here is the latest I heard from the webmaster:

“Be advised that for a short period of time  the non-Premium clients were unable to see explicit coated. However, it was confirmed by our IT department that the issue was fixed.

In case a user reports that they are unable to see your X-rated photos, please ask them to contact us here or to our email address [email protected]”

The webmaster clarified earlier in our exchange that they are referring to my region; the implication being that for other regions, presumably outside the US, it may be different. I suspect now or in the future, restrictions in certain states in the US applying to pornography may apply to viewing explicit content on RM, but I don’t know. Maybe someone here residing in a state requiring age verification to view pornography can illuminate this point.

Another change! So now, even though I'm a regular member at the moment, I can see all the videos on a provider's page regardless of if it's explicit or not. This is a change I'm not gonna complain about though. Although it gives me no reason to become premium again really. Videos was the main reason I'd sign up to be premium. I have a feeling though this won't last. They seem to constantly be trying different things out.

Just looked.  Access to videos has not changed for me, a non-premium member.  Alas.

Maybe I'm special then? I can go on ads and see all the videos. Can someone else let me know if they can see videos or not.

I can definitely play more videos than I used to!  But there are some ads that I remember having several videos (none of which I could previously play, but could see were on the profile), where I now can see only one or two on the ad at all but I am able to play them.

Hmm, I am not a premium member; just basic… perhaps they made that change to entice people to pay for premium.

I've been a Premium member for as long as I can remember.  I see everything when my membership is current; when I am at the site and not logged in, I see only Xs until I log in as a member who has paid.   10/11/25

Same for me.

I have noticed the same situation on my PC and my phone.

This is what happens when you have a monopoly.  Raise the prices because you can since it’s really the only viable option for finding providers.
 

Until a really strong competitor shows up, there will be no downward movement on pricing.

Sad because for some escorts those pictures were the money makers.

They can still send those pictures but request but it's not the same as advertising their "goods".

And the Feds gave them that Monopoly...

I have the same experience.  It appears most, if not all, of the previously locked videos are now available to basic members (e.g. me).  The problem is that some of the videos, even though clickable, show up as black screens with sounds only.

It can be a little glitchy at times, especially if you click the right arrow to go to the next video. Try exiting the ad and going back in and clicking on the video you want to see.

Tried again today, and I am now seeing some spicy video content that I was never able to see before with my non-premium membership, though there are still photos and videos that I don't have access to.  Not sure what's going on with rent.men, but this is a change I won't complain about.

Yeah i'm enjoying it while it lasts, but it's almost definitely gonna go away. I think it's just another aspect of the "give them a taste, take it away, and then tell them to subscribe to Premium" thing they do.
