I gave an honest Escort review, Escort wasn't happy...

[Jocklooking]

Question for you all,

 

So I gave an honest review of escort encounter. Apparently, Daddy gives the escort a heads up about it. Which is perfectly fine.

 

My question/issue is when the escort contacted me (at 7am!) asking me to revise it. Is that normal to have an escort contact you about a pending review?

 

To be clear, my review basically said the Escort is using old pictures (if they are him at all) and that his physical fitness and height were exaggerated. I did include in the review that the escort was handsome enough, just not in the way advertised to me, so I cancelled the session upon arrival.

 

So I told the honest truth about the encounter. But was taken aback by the escort's demands. I don't feel too bad about it, as I told the truth of the encounter and that's the point of the review site, right?

 

Thoughts....?

Let's see if the review gets published.

The escort is given the opportunity to provide a written response to your review and have the final word.

 

It's understandable that the escort would be displeased about a negative review, but, in this case, the best way to prevent a negative review would have been to use accurate pictures and represent himself truthfully. The reviews are valuable to all of us only if they're truthful and uninhibited. Please don't be intimidated by the escort, and let the review stand.

[Becket]

It's YOUR review. You are recounting your experience with the escort. There is no right or wrong answer. And as has been said, the escort will have the last word. He will have the chance to respond to your review. As long as the client is not trying just to hurt or embarass the escort, the process is very fair. cheers

[Okliehomo]

Yeah, that honesty thing is way overrated....

 

Never pays off.

Twice I have been asked to change a review. Both times were to protect the privacy of the escort. I Complied.

 

One was an escort I met in NYC and commented that he was the most beautiful men Canada had sent to the US. He did not want to be identified as Canadian. The second case was similar.

 

However, in the case at hand, the escort needs to up date his pictures and information. Any response to Daddy should include a current picture for Daddy to judge.

There's no point in submitting a review if you're not willing to stick to your guns unless someone gives you a good reason not to. Here, there isn't a good reason not to.

 

Daddy isn't the arbiter of who's right or wrong; he just puts the information out there. There's no need to send him pics. The only one that would matter would be if you'd taken a photo of him when you met, and depending on what he shows in his ads, that could amount to outing him.

STICK TO YOU GUNS. Your review wasn't about "performance" or hygiene or unprofessionalism, ALL of which are variables the escort can rectify. But his height and AGE are things he can't change and any reader knows that, and he knows telling the TRUTH would diminish his clientele base hence his panic over your review.

I had the SAME issue with a (still) well advertised scort whom I posted a review of, a long-haired blondie "college" muscle boy who listed his age as TWENTY-FIVE. The person who showed up DID have the hair AND the body, I give him that, but he's wasn't 25, OR even 35. He was closer to FORTY poss even above. His face was photoshopped to the max, I'm talking like Hollywood photoshopping where they take the entire face out and just put the eyes nose and mouth back :-) I went thru with the appointment even thou I'd had my heart set on a college age guy, mostly because I was embarrassed to say hey you're way older than you said. AND I wasn't displeased he was very good and his body was very close to the pix. And my review WAS positive in all respects EXCEPT the age, warning that if a 20-something is your MUST HAVE then he would not work for you. It worked (to some extent) because he has since REMOVED his age from his RB ads. (but the photoshopping remains, which I suppose is just as bad re misleading clients)_

[Amoco]

The first guy I hired provided an exceptional experience and I continued to see him for all kinds of different appointments for several months afterwards. At some point I decided I wanted to thank him for his efforts and Wrote my first review, being sure to copy him when I sent the original to Daddy. In no time at all, I received an intensely angry letter accusing me of trying to ruin his business (among other things) and he demanded that I get it back from Daddy and not have it published. For my part, I was literally shocked. The body of the review was extremely positive, but he was reacting to some off hand comments that I had made about his hair and/or age, which to my mind, were already out there. My intentions were good, but it led to a reaction from him that bordered on frightening and we agreed to end all contact. I also asked Daddy to remove the review from consideration, which he was nice enough to do.

 

Again, in my mind, I was giving him a gift. In his, I was destroying his business by highlighting his age. Though there are many exceptions, some escorts adjust their age by 5-10 u years and it has always been my experience that they use their best pictures from throughout their career unless otherwise stated as current. Somehow this level of dishonesty isn't taken too seriously - until someone calls them on it. Once again, you can't have it both ways...if you choose to misrepresent yourself than you're going to be exposed to possible cancellations. Appearance, within reason, is not my primary hiring criteria, but if it was, I would be upset too...I don't hear any malice in your voice, so I agree with you.

[Steve9332]

very few of the men ive hired has had accurate pictures, it normally doesnt bother me but I have started asking for a fresh pic if I am in doubt, I do wonder when I read reviews like the one today of Roughscort, the reviewer is referring to the ad on rentmen and say all pictures are current and accurate, and still his full body/face picture was uploaded 2010, 5 years ago, how is that current?

( clearly shows on the website when pictures was uploaded ), he has added a couple of new pics, but most are still old.

Why cant we just state the truth and say he is older or bigger or whatever so others know what to expect?

Rhetorical question?

You're right--"The escort is given the opportunity to provide a written response to your review and

Why should the escort have the final word?

 

Does that work well for the consumer (presumably,

the majority users of this excellent website).

 

Might the original reviewer/client have the opportunity

for a hopefully polite rejoinder (e.g., "I stand by my original review.").

 

If the escort and client wish to continue their discussion,

it might be suggested to do this via private messaging

or off-site.

 

Any other ideas?

I'm speaking of the reviews on daddysreviews.com, and the escort gets the final word because that's daddy's rule. It's daddy's sandbox, and he makes the rules. I think this is a very good policy, as it prevents reviews from turning into catfights.

 

Of course, if it is a catfight that the reviewer is looking for, he can reference his review on these forums and start a discussion.

Well, I agree that there are two sides to every story. But you can't parse facts, so in this case there was nothing to dispute. Overall I exercised my "final word" by simply not going through with the session.

 

As for the review, I submitted one to simply contribute to this community, that has provided me with insight previously. What I didn't appreciate the escort contacting me directly, asking me to modify it.

 

Being new to all this, I'm not sure why "Daddy" was uncomfortable about me discussing said review in the forums either. And then deleting part of the discussion in this thread. Which I was not malicious to the escort in any way. There was no slander, and as others have pointed out my only issue was the lack of transparency about his actual age/height.

 

If anything, I don't get "Daddy's" policy of informing escorts of reviews before they post. Especially when it seems that there was enough identifiable information to allow the escort to contact me directly about it, multiple times. Also what if the session was an in-call? That escort could come to my home, potentially causing an awkward situation.

 

I think I may go back to lurking on this board. Contributing doesn't seem worth it...

Why should the escort have the final word?

 

You may be reading too much into "final word".

 

The client gets one shot, a review.

 

The escort gets one shot at a rebuttal and it's the last thing published about that encounter to avoid long-lasting back and forth bickering.

 

As it happens, the escort's rebuttal frequently says more about the escort than the review did. In the end it's up to the reader to decide.

 

The escort gets "the final word" because it wouldn't make sense for the escort to post a rebuttal before the review. Simple as that.

[wayout]

I've submitted a review (a negative one) where the escort responded and it was blatantly full of lies. Was I upset and wish I could refute his response? Sure but I understand that the system in place is probably the best overall and one has to accept some of the bad with the good. As a client doing a review, I am anonymous and have nothing to lose...whereas the escort is not and has future income at stake so I feel it is only fair to give them the last chance to respond.

After reading this thread, one should never wonder why clients decide not to write anything other than positive reviews or write no reviews at all.

yes, but on here some posters enjoy badmouthing escorts because it's to easy and anonymous to post, but with a review the escort could realized who wrote it.

Age and height seem to get fudged more than cock size. If someone seems relatively close to their age, it doesn't seem important. I don't care about height except I usually give really tall guys a pass. If these things are obviously important to the escort and don't take away from the experience, I don't see the point in mentioning them. mentioning someone is Canadian in the US is perfectly understandable--I wouldn't want to adversely affect someone's immigration status.

I concur.

 

Speaking of getting a pass, do some escorts get a pass on negative reviews?

Yes, excellent points above. These might help one understand more deeply a big difference between those escorts who

play the game of "bait & switch" versus those who use terribly old pictures--I mean so old it "looks" like a different

person has shown up.

 

Those using these dated pictures sometimes seem to cling to the good old days. This

underscores a very sad and challenging aspect of this career for the escorts, much like many actors: the window of

opportunity is regretfully early, sweet...and short.

 

Many other posters have emphasized how much they value older escorts. This would seem easier (and of course

this is different for everyone): but if you've known an escort for a long period of time, the outward changes

sink in slowly, much like a marriage. Their true beauty from within, if you really like them, is always

bright and recognized and valued.

And that goes for massage therapists too.

I have seen one for over 20 years, he's now retired.
