I am back ......

[SteveEscort]

...... after being given a forced "time out", which I probably did deserve because I did write an awfully nasty post but I am going to set the record straight here.

 

I have been a member of this board for a number of years, always in a good natured sense and I have never caused any arguments or strife. I contribute only to posts where I have knowledge and experience and even though many guys don't agree with me, I show what it's like to be a male escort from my side of the fence in a truthful, intelligent and factual manner. I have also made many of you think again about how this industry works and I have questioned some very bizarre myths and legends you have about escort work.

 

I have worked as a gay escort for over 15 years and only really had an online presence for the last six years, yet the attitude by newbies on this forum beggars belief at times. They've been booking an escort for a few months and everything I say is wrong. It might be to them but to me it isn't and I am entitled to my opinion.

 

The last evening, I was on the board, I mistakenly reported the Joan Rivers death from the feed at New Orleans Magazine. To say I was "jumped on" was an understatement and I lost my temper, however I was correct on many aspects of my post, reported the following day, regarding her side room etc, which is not an indication of somebody recovering, it's the exact opposite. My 92 year old aunt died last year and it was a very similar experience, something I had to deal with as she had beared no children. I did try to explain this, but again, I was wrong.

 

I was asked in the following days by Daddy, by email, to apologise on the forum because there's a number of "influential people" who talk and I showed myself up as basically being a brat. I am sorry Daddy and all, until you also reign in the trouble makers on this forum, I have absolutely no intentions of aplogising to anyone. I am a mature independent escort and I do not have to justify myself to any such "influential people", whoever they may be, if they even exist at all. Daddy was kind enough to furnish me with stats showing how many people in Europe visit the site, which I was unaware of. He did make an effort but I have never bowed down to pressure and I am not saying sorry to unknown influential folk who sit behind keyboards. This isn't the Bourne Identity.

 

I did see the many messages of support on the board, some also criticising the way I was treated over the Joan Rivers post, considering I was only approximately 12 hours early with the news, posting something anyone else on here would have done, had they subscribed to the Facebook newsfeed of New Orleans Magazine, like I do, which I must add, one of my relatives is a senior manager at. Thank you to those that did appreciate my contributions to the forum.

 

I was slightly perturbed by the removal of my visit to Turkey from the "Travelling Escorts" section. That's a little bit unfair, wasn't it. I will reinstate that today. It's not as if I was banned for life or murdered anyone. The dates, before anyone asks, were clearly shown in the title and body of the post.

 

I am back on the board, something I have pondered over for a month but one thing's for sure, I won't be reporting any news again because the nasty backlash just ain't worth it.

Welcome back Steve. I have always enjoyed reading your posts. I don't fall into the influential category here rather just a member who enjoys this forum. Looking forward to your future posts !

[gallahadesquire]

Welcome back, Steve!

[jawjateck]

Welcome back to the village.

 

There are no influential or important people here. Just a bunch of nice guys interspersed with a few tragic, deluded souls.

[calrichmond]

I've always liked your posts, and you have no need to apologize. I would prefer the "influential" members leave.

[bigvalboy]

Well I'm glad you came back, and I certainly don't see a need to apologize. I agree with Jawjateck, I don't see "influential people" here. What went on in the last kerfuffle is all forgotten, best for everyone to move forward. You always bring an interesting perspective on topics, and I look forward to your posts.

There are no influential or important people here.

 

But there are self-important people here.

My children think I'm important since I get to set their bedtime, pick what we eat for dinner, put them in timeout, etc. However, my influence doesn't extend far beyond my front door.

[BaronArtz]

Welcome back, Steve! I always enjoy your posts. Keep up the good work - in the bedroom, and on the message boards here

Welcome back, Steve.

 

Who posted after you got timed-out that you will be back here as a contributor?

 

I don't know what transpired between you and the management, and it's none of my business. But I don't comprehend why did you chose to post that information above. If you don't want to apologize for your mistake ... then don't and move on! Whatever your disagreement with Daddy is and private conversation was exchanged: don't wash your dirty underwear in public.

 

Regarding that thread, your "pride" made you lose your temper.

 

We may disagree with each other on this Board, but insult and curse (in the way it was posted, then removed) is rarely the right solution.

 

Cheers!

I am not discussing the matter Steven and I have not divulged a private conversation. I was told there were "influential people on the board" and I am still at as a loss as to who they are. I also mentioned that I was allowed to see stats which helped me make a decision on whether to stay on the site or not. I have not slagged anyone off on this post. It's very much down the middle and says what I want to say without being confrontational.

 

Please don't engage me in what happened that night. I set the record straight from my side and got it off my chest, end of the matter thank you

[SteveEscort]

Thank you to everyone who welcomed me back.

 

 

During my time away I had a lovely trip to Germany plus I am off on holiday (maybe seeing a few guys too) to Turkey, two weeks tomorrow and I am off to the Carribean in November to see a very good client.

 

I've a lot going on. Also check out my blog guys, I did a new post whilst I was on my hiatus, called Apparently I Do It So Well. The book review is my biggest post of 2014 (over 8000 reads) and this post is already the second most read post on 2014 on my blog. It went wild on twitter. Everyone seemed to like it. It's a good one for the newbies too who are just setting out on their career and for new guys, venturing into this every changing world for the first time. Let me know what you think of it.

Welcome back, Steve.

Cheers Chris

Stever I am not an influential person on this board but I have at times been under the influence when on this board, so maybe that counts. Welkommen, bienvenue. welcome. i use a foreign language so i hope not to get time out for that but in every language it is good to have you back.

[Steven_Draker]

I have not slagged anyone off on this post.

 

You just "slagged" Daddy, but you refuse or you're unable to see it, Your Highness.

 

I don't think the Board is the most appropriate venue to "get things off your chest", but that's just my opinion.

[Daverwr]

I'm not entirely sure I agree with that. The board is suppose to be "anonymous" generally for that purpose: To be able to say things, ask things and discuss things you wouldn't normally speak of face to face. I think "getting off one's chest" just naturally occurs in this type of venue. Nothing here is skin off my nose. Shouldn't be for anyone, IMHO.

 

BTW - Welcome back Steve, even though I don't know you!

[Guy Fawkes]

At no point did I ask you to apologize. The closest I came was: "You have about 25 days to consider how to spin this marketing disaster that your temper tantrum created."

 

I likewise never said: "Influential People", but rather "very well connected," I would appreciate it that if your going to comment on a email conversation that you do without misquoting.

 

It was good that I denied your request to: "Please close my account." Welcome back, you were missed.

Dear me, Steven everyone else welcomed be back, you're going on like a broken record, get back to your facts and stats or whatever you do best and leave me alone. I'm not pandering to it.

[SteveEscort]

I apologise about that you did indeed say very well connected people, now that that referred back to the email so I stand corrected on that. however. I've no idea who these people are or why I had to do any type of spin to them.

 

Anyway. Thank you for welcoming me back yourself, as far as I'm concerned, I said my piece when coming back and I certainly won't be creating any new drama posts that get me barred. It's not who I am about and I think you know that

As I've now had a Welcome back off Daddy and he corrected me on the the influential people are being very well connected and doesn't seem to have taken great offence at my reply statement maybe it's time, Steven for you to stop rocking the boat please.

 

Cheers

Thank you. A client from outside the area came to see me last Wednesday and said "Steve, you're my Mr October" he hires once a month and he was in Newcastle on business and so I made the grade, now I'm someone else's favourite boy, hahahahahahahahaha.

 

I am not arguing, I won't be replying to anymore nonsense because that's all it is.

 

Anyway, must dash I've my Army Major popping over for wet speedo fun in the shower in an hours time
