A GLOWING REVIEW FOR ANTHONY HOLLOWAY

Well, here's another point to consider. In the beginning of the review, we have the following:

 

I've never hired an escort before because I am an

attractive, muscular man who doesn't have any trouble

getting hot guys

 

But then, in the "You" section describing himself, we have:

 

I am a bit overweight. In mid 40's love to fantasize and

then make the fantasies reality.

 

Methinks either some review info was accidentally mixed, or something smells a little fishy....

50 to 8, the other dwarves began to

suspect Hungry.

Have you read the glowing review on Anthony Holloway which was posted in today's Newest Reviews. It is absolutely glowing with compliments for our friend Holloway and certainly wasn't written by him (just read it and you will understand)

 

Following is a sample of what was written: "I have fantasized about hiring an escort and I habitually visit this site to feed that fantasy. Anyway, Anthony's pic turned me on so much that I decided to go for it and make my fantsy a reality." Is it reasonable to believe that this reviewer "habitually visits this site" and still would hire Holloway? I assume (perhaps falsely) that people who havitually visit this site READ REVIEWS.

I am suspicious that this is a "fake review"...no, not written by Holloway himself as he has demonstrated that he is incapable of such prose. Could he have had someone write this review for him? What are the possibilities / probabilities that this is actully a valid review? Opinions requested.

So the review is well-written, it must be a fake? Well, after Boston Guy said he had a good time with AH, I think the review is probably credible. The reviewer's handle indicates he is from Atlanta, AH is in the Boston area, and the encounter happens at AH's place in Vegas? Well, that is a little unusual.

Now the next review, for Gio, sounds more like an ad for ChelseaGuys!

At any rate, why not just take the reviews as a whole and quit this fraud alert stuff? No one is making you hire Anthony.

And that's true, no one makes anyone hire anyone, and if, after all the negative reviews here, you hire Anthony and he rips you off, it is your own damn fault.

 

There's only one teeny little part of this review that leads me to question it:

 

I've seen Anthony in the aol chatrooms and have been admiring his extremely attractive body for some time.

 

I have several of Anthony's screennames on my buddy list and I have never ever seen him in on AOL chatroom at any time. A minor point but one worth pointing out.

[Guest sdmuscl4hire]

Ok, is it me or is there anyone else out there tired of dishing the dirt about this guy. Let it rest boys. He has enough written about him via here, websites ect to outlast a congress man. To me it seems to fuel his fire. As they say "Bad News is better than no news". He is a legend in his own mind due to everyone dishing.

 

 

WE KNOW ITS FAKE, dont need to point out each and every time he does it.

General Observation

 

Nothing to do with this escort, specifically, but I am more and more leery of first time reviewers.

 

Until someone has reviewed several times, I question whether it is a plant or a real review. (I have used the "Search" to check and found that sometimes they say they've reviewed before but nothing comes up under their M4M handle.)

 

Your skeptical (but not entirely cynical) friend,

Dick

"Ok, is it me or is there anyone else out there tired of dishing the dirt about this guy."

 

It's you!

 

"This guy" is a pariah for clients and other escorts. He should be displayed for the world to see him as he really is. Sorry if this upsets you but he has to be stopped from screwing clients.

[Guest Tampa Yankee]

All, please pardon my analogy, but...

 

We take note when a dog turd lying on the side walk is in proximity, we point it out to friends so they may avoid it, we step over or around it and continue on. Any further conversation is unnecessary and not very illuminating.

>Ok, is it me or is

>there anyone else out there

It's NOT just you.

 

However, for the benefit of newcomers who may not have the time or interest to read through months of old message threads it's worth raising a red flag once in a while. If we prevent just one unsuspecting client from getting ripped off, this board has served its purpose.

Very good observation! I had not noticed that. As is sais elsewhere in the thread, I think we all realize what is going on.

RE:Observation

 

This is an escort review site, which allows different clients to discuss their escort experiences. Some give good reviews, some mixed, some negative. It allows some fake reviews, and some vengeful reviews. In the midst of all of that, some guidance is gained, and the client still has a choice to make.

It seems that some people don't trust others to make their own decision. They are self-appointed judges, juries, and executioners. They look for the negative even in a positive review. They are relentless and unforgiving. History has shown us what this behavior leads to unless someone speaks up. I, for one, don't want these people to set the rules for what escorts are "acceptable." I will continue to make my own decisions, some of which will obviously be better than others, but at least they will be mine.

RE:Observation

 

If people were tired of talking about Holloway and his reviews, fake or otherwise, I guess they would stop doing it. Obviously some people are not tired of it.

 

For those who are tired of it, nobody is making them read this thread or post in it. The subject of the thread is plainly marked and those who don't like the subject can easily avoid it so I don't see what they have to bitch about. I also don't see that anyone has a legitimate reason to try to discourage others from talking about the subject. Seems like the same people are always trying to tell others here what they should or shouldn't talk about. Who elected them?

[Guest Tampa Yankee]

RE:Observation

 

delhi,

 

I think you are being a little hard on sdmuscl4hire. Otherwise, I'm pretty much in agreeement with your post, except for the -- Who elected them? -- which seems to me a little snide. I suspect we can round up a few others in agreement too, if need be.

 

:-)

[Guest sdmuscl4hire]

RE:Observation

 

In refference to your remarks I will be kind and ignore them. I am just driving at this was discussed what a week ago???? Didnt we expect a glowing fake review??? Wouldnt be be shocked of there wasnt one posted????? I have been here what......3 months and I know all about him.

 

Let me see what happens if I post a thread about tipping an escort, eh?

 

You honestly feel that people comming to this site will come here first rather than the review section and that we are blocking them at the pass telling of his negative reviews???

 

They speak LOUDLY what a flake, rip off con artist he is. I am just making a point without pointing fingers or naming names, but lord, it appears some have even stopped life as it where to track his many names down and find out where he moves from month to month. A little on the WACKO side if you ask me but then again its obvious you didnt : )

 

Again I digress to try to make my point here.

Snide remarks are not needed in any venue as they serve to detract from the point that's trying to be made. You may know all about him, but as was pointed out above, not everyone does.

This speaks to the assumption that people are incapable of making up their own minds. They aren't, but having extra information can help someone to make their own informed decision

And??

 

I am just making

Not that you named names of course, but if you think I've spent excessive time in keeping up with Anthony or that other fellow, you seriously underestimate my abilities. I spend very little time on it, the two of them are just extraordinarily easy to track. (Either that or I'm just THAT good :0)) If you choose to think me a wacko, well, it's a free country.

 

I just don't understand why you continue to chime in on these threads or read them if they bother you that much. That seems kind of, well, wacko. If you aren't interested, don't read them. No one is forcing you to. The last exchange that I had with the other person needed to be stopped and Hooboy was correct to do it. It had degenerated into a pissing contest that served no purpose. It won't happen again. But will I still warn people of his new screennames as I find them? Absolutely.

I am sure you can round up the handful of other people who always agree with whatever you post, but I have seen just as many others who don't. If there was an election in which the 1,100 site members chose you to tell the rest of us how we should behave I guess I missed it. When was that?

 

Since you often give other people advice on how to act I'm sure you won't mind getting some advice. If you want to interact with people who come from many different places and backgrounds then you need to get used to the idea that some of them are not going to accept the customs you think are appropriate. If not then you should just hang out with people who are exactly like you.

[Guest Tampa Yankee]

RE:Observation

 

delhi,

 

You seem to have a hard time with 'my agreement' with 'your post' and with my statement that there are others that would agree with it as well.

It was not clear to me what you were referring to when you talked about rounding up others to agree. If you were referring to my post, thanks but I don't see the point. Again, if you want to be in a discussion with people from a lot of different places and backgrounds then trying to get them all to act in a certain way, whether it's your way, my way or someone else's way, seems to defeat the whole purpose. I don't have any problem with anyone's opinions here, except for those who try to restrict what opinions can be expressed.

[Boston Guy]

I've resisted joining this thread, having just posted my comments on AH a while back -- comments that were referred to above. But I find I want to add a couple of remarks.

 

First, this is a message center and everyone should feel free to post whatever they want. People should not be made uncomfortable for posting opinions that differ from those held by others, although I do think it's reasonable to hold everyone to some kind of minimal set of standards of decency.

 

Having said that, I find myself somewhat amused by the crusaders who feel they need to take every possible opportunity to save everyone else from evil. They seem to see the world not in color or shades of grey, but rather strictly in black and white. And woe unto those who stray to the black side of the street, for there is no coming back, no forgiveness, no possible redemption and all who might stand up for them are either held up to ridicule or dismissed as a fake.

 

Negative reviews are treated as a confirmation of opinions already firmly held. Positive reviews must be a fake for they differ from what the believers believe.

 

I wonder how many of the people who have so stridently expressed an opinion of AH in this thread and elsewhere have actually met him? How many have hired him? How many have tested his services? How many have even talked to him?

 

I know I have. And, as I said before, he didn't have any idea who I was. But he treated me decently and professionally from first conversation through to the end, with respect and dignity.

 

He's not really my type and I doubt I'll see him again. But he was fun and funny and I found no evil lurking in the shadows, waiting to pounce on my soul.

 

I'm not defending him and I'm not taking any sides or any stance whatsoever on anything that anyone else has said about him. Each person will need to make his own judgments for himself.

 

But I'm not fake and AH treated me, at least, with considerably more dignity than his opponents have sometimes accorded him in the message center.

 

And, by the way, I have seen him in AOL chatrooms from time to time.

[Guest delhi]

If you need to actually meet an escort in order to decide what you think of him, then what exactly is the purpose of the reviews on this site? I thought the whole point of this site was to save people the trouble of dealing with escorts who have been unreliable in the past by letting people who've seen them give others the benefit of their experiences.

 

I have seen one or two responses from this Holloway to the reviews and other comments about him, and the tone of those responses does not make me think that "redemption" is what he has in mind. It seems like he just wants to trash anyone who criticizes him. If there is any real client who thinks this escort is a good bet, he should post an actual review with details of his experience and let the readers make up their minds.

[Guest WorldEscrt Sean]

Sweetie, let me try and sum it up for you. YOU CAN'T BELIEVE 90% OF WHAT'S WRITTEN IN THE REVIEWS! Hire the guy and find out for yourself. There are vindictive assholes who will stoop to anything to destroy a persons reputation.

[Boston Guy]

Perhaps.

 

But it's my understanding that's what happened today and the review was immediately trashed and dismissed as a fake -- because it couldn't possibly be a good review of someone deemed so unfit. One person even questioned if it was reasonable to think that anyone who visited this site regularly could possibly have hired him.

 

My point is not so much to defend AH as to take a small stand against what I see as a particular kind of injustice. A small cadre of people who have never hired this person, never met him, and never even met anyone who actually has hired him take as Gospel the negative reviews on this site and then use any and all possible opportunities to further demonize this guy.

 

If they had hired him and he was that bad, I wouldn't say a word if they spoke out against him. But that doesn't seem to be the case. Instead, people have just decided AH is bad news and that's all there is to it.

 

I don't much like reviews in any kind of context -- I think they encourage herd mentalities. And I think the context provided by this site and other kinds of Internet review site (book reviews, movie reviews, etc.) is one in which it is possible to manipulate the reviews to suit one's purpose, whether that is in this case to boost up an escort or tear one down.

 

Consequently, while I find great value in this message center, I dismiss the reviews as having value so questionable as to be of no value to me at all. I don't even read them, unless there is some great controversy about a review in the message center.

 

But because I do take value from the message center and try to contribute value to it as I can, I take it seriously when someone's name is repeatedly dragged through the mud here. When that person is someone I've met, who treated me well, and the people who are doing the dragging have never met him and are instead simply relying on reviews that I find entirely questionable (and ignoring positive reviews contrary to their already-established point of view!), it just doesn't pass the smell test.

[Guest Viewmaster]

The only people really in a position to comment on this Escort(or any other) would be you and those who have met with him. Comments by any others really just amounts to hearsay. It seems as though repeated speculation seems to have taken on a life of its own and become fact.
