Reviews on other sites

[Mikegaite]

So my ratio of reviews on Cruising4escorts/Rentmen/Daddy's over the past two years is about 1.75:1:1.25. It seems as though other active escorts are more like 1:1:5. Should I actively try to do something to get some of those c4e or RM reviews reposted on daddy's or to change up the ratio? I don't want people to think my reviews are fake, but when you have reviews from people who live in places like Cody, Wyoming and Santa Fe and Lafayette, LA, they probably won't have seen many escorts come to their town, so they will be first-time reviewers and won't know where to post reviews to give me the best exposure and I didn't even know they were going to write reviews until they were already posted on other sites.

If a client asks me if I'd like a review, I make sure its now a Rentmen review. Here's why: 99% of your clients are going to come from the site your advertising on and it's best to consolidate everything in one place instead of redirecting somewhere else. From what I hear 15 years ago an escort could have been booked solid for a month out solely by being reviewed on Daddys, that's just not the reality anymore. Rentboy took over and now Rentmen is the leader in advertising and hiring.

Well, I hire about 5x/month. I only review new escorts to me, which typically is just about 1 new guy every other quarter or so. I only review meetings that are extraordinarily good or bad. No time to review average meetings. I don't ask the escort if he'd like a review; I figure it is my choice to submit a review - just like I would review a restaurant or any other service provider.

 

Now to the post: If I review a new escort, I post a review in Rentmen - short and sweet. I don't hire new guys from any other source. I do submit a more detailed review on Daddy's. I have never written a review on C4E. Hope this helps.

Strangely, I never trusted the reviews on RM. Maybe I'll rethink that.

I agree with Triple J about the RM reviews.....many here know the rep with Rentboy reviews was horrible - manipulation and fakery....I never even read them at all.....but a couple escorts have told me lately that the current RM review policy is much better and honest.....in fact, I have seen negative reviews on RM right out there in the open!!....imagine that!.....

Same here. I've submitted one. It was ridiculously easy with no vetting whatsoever. I know mine was accurate and knowing TR submits them may give them a little more credence in my mind. Especially now that I have seen a few poor reviews.

 

I actually get a little suspicious if there are too many reviews on RM over a short period of time. That's a red flag for me. I know that the majority of clients just aren't going to write them, so that indicates some kind of shenanigans in my book. I like to see some consistency over time, but not a big flood that make it appear someone is trying to compensate.

 

I definitely give the most credence to Daddy's reviews, but without knowing the traffic and participation on the site, it's difficult to tell what kind of pool we're working with. For all I know it's the same couple hundred guys doing all the reviewing and all the talking.

I had total confidence in RM reviews.... until one of mine got deleted, hehe

You mentioned that before. Did you ever try to submit it again with different (but still negative) wording? Or not worth the bother?

... kinda gave up.... didn't want to get into a "pissing match" (at least there, hehe) and decided that i was coming off as too vengeful in any case - but i did terminate my premium membership as a result.

 

bygones, eh?

Bravo! Don't waste your energy, just vote with your wallet!

Mike, why not make reference or link to this site for your reviews? Wouldn't that solve the issue?

Since the Rentboy raid reviews have tended to be more vanilla, which makes them , in many ways, less valuable. I am not saying that there is no value in a review without details of the session, but they are just not as helpful as those that contain details.

I disagree. I like the way Rentmen censors them. Do you really have to read on how good someone sucks dick or how passionately they kissed someone else? The review answers the basic questions of time spent, accuracy of pictures, and if you'd recommend them again. If someone's Getting positive reviews they're good at whatever was discussed between themselves and the client in private, where the intimate details should remain. I personally love getting a review and the client talking about the lovely experience they had as a whole and how the time we spent together was special, and not just full of sweat cum and spit. I really do see the slow migration towards longer meetings and more inquiries from guys who want companionship rather than just asking to fuck cum and bounce.

[MikeyGMin]

or how passionately they kissed someone else?

 

Actually...yes. I know I'm not alone in this being the single most important difference between a good session and a so-so session. It's critical to my decision on whether I hire or not.

 

Virtually every escort out there says they will kiss, but when you've been around the block a few times, you experience the huge difference between someone who is willing to kiss and someone who is actually good at it.

+1000. The single most popular PM question I get when asked about an escort? is he a good kisser?

Personally, that's my #1 and most favorite activity, and interestingly, despite being a big ol' homo here, I find women are particularly good at this skill! Better practice, boys!

But what if they're good at kissing the reviewer but not good at kissing you? What if the reviewer can't kiss and thought the escort was phenominal but he actually was horrible? It's possible and can happen. We've all seen it discussed on the board on one thread or another. But I get it, you want to feel passion and that's understood and I'm just busting your balls. Remember to communicate and express your needs without sounding overly demanding. You'll get what you need

I know you're just messing with me, but you're right that nothing is guaranteed. However, I'll tell you two words that eliminate the variables and make me run for the hills...."dry kiss."

We all seek resources to make wise hiring decisions. Heck, I have one source I trust. Never fails me.

[BaronArtz]

http://muscleservice.com/ has a forum page in which escorts are discussed and reviewed by clients. Unlike this forum, there is no approval process of escort reviews, the participants can pretty much say whatever they want. Except disclose the true identity of an escort. You have to take the comments with a grain of salt. And while the cat fights between forum participants can spin out of control at times, there are real gems to be found. I, for one, have found it very useful.

I do (very much) enjoy the source in your signature space!

I wrote a review which was very tame. All RM did was publish was my answers to their questions. My addition comments were not published. So I guess they censor. For me though there was nothing to censor. Curious about that.

[jawjateck]

I've never read a rentmen review worth a damn, but I'm a crusty ole soul who doesn't use reviews. I am curious if any newbie clients use RM reviews to make a hiring decision.
