411 on Santiago--Can one have too many good reviews?

[Despardo]

Now here is an interesting case relevant to recent threads about the usefulness of RM reviews.

 

This appealing (to my way of thinking) young man (only 22 years old) has garnered a whopping 21 (!) RM reviews in fewer than 90 days. His last 6 reviews are all from Toronto clients. Santiago travels a lot and has been in Toronto for 2 or 3 weeks now. There are no reviews on Daddy.

 

Lots of red flags here, but maybe not.

 

OK, 21 reviews in 3 months is immediately suspect. However, quite a few of the reviews come from long time RM clients, several with pictures and profiles and a history of submitting reviews on RM. These reviews (uniformly positive) would therefore seem to be credible. They suggest that this young man is truly amazing, is certainly extremely active, and has recently made quite a splash in the Toronto market.

 

Has anyone on Daddy hired him? Legit or too good to be true??? (He is heading to Seattle.)

I hired Simple Adam two weeks ago

 

He's the real McCoy

 

A positive review will be submitted this week

A bit like that NYC guy, Simple Adam (or whatever) . . . Too many reviews are a warning flag for me.

No doubt he rocks a lot of boats just not mine.

 

@edinbrooklyn this is a pretty weird couple of statements by you. I mean you don't elaborate. But it sounds like Adam wouldn't be your choice no matter how many reviews he had. If your only criteria for not liking him is that he has too many reviews, that's pretty strange because in Adam's case he has enough other than 1st time reviews to know he's the real deal. Why would you not want to know that Adam, or any escort for that matter, has consistently good reviews from more than possibly suspect 1st time reviewers?

 

There was some Forum member who discussed recently that he didn't like 'popular' escorts because he thought there was more chances of them spreading disease. But I doubt that's an accurate assessment as we never know what any escort much less any sex partner is like when we are not around.

 

If you are saying that Adam 'isn't your cup of tea' no matter how good his reviews are, join the club. There are multiple escorts on here that have tons of reputable reviews that I have no interest in hiring. That doesn't mean I don't believe they are good escorts for their reviewers only that for whatever reason they don't appeal to me.

 

Despardo's point on the other hand was how trustworthy do we think the Rentmen reviews are. My view on that is that they might be trustworthy. I've done a few myself. But Rentmen has nowhere near Daddy's vetting of reviews. We know in some cases they won't print negative reviews. And I remember that @Despardo either actually met an escort who had reviews by a 'respected' Rentmen reviewer who turned out to be some type of scam or he figured it out ahead of time and didn't meet them.

In this particular case, I couldn't care less if the guy has 2 or 200 reviews. I am with @edinbrooklyn on this one: different strokes. He simply is not my type at all, at all. Facial hair and extensive tattoos are two deal breakers for me. Sorry, that's my final answer o_Oo_O

Again that's not the point. He's not my type either. @Despardo was asking if too many reviews was too many reviews. My thoughts on the matter are if they are reputable reviews on Daddy's, then no, too many are not too many. With Rentmen's lack of vetting and in some cases refusal to print negative reviews, who knows?

Also, I think liubit and edinbrooklyn are talking about two different people—Santiago versus Adam, respectively. Anyway, I think the idea here is that someone can have “too many” good reviews if they are accumulated in a short period of time because it makes people suspicious that they are not genuine. I guess that makes sense. But then again, you never really know. Maybe Santiago is just really great at his job. I have never met the man, but I have noticed that he has traveled here before, and perhaps duration in the business and money to travel lends him some small degree of credibility in itself. I also find at least some of his reviews to be at least somewhat credible. For example, I see that the person who submitted a review on May 4 has also reviewed at least two other advertisers in the Toronto area. If Santiago were making all these review up himself (or having a friend do so), why would he submit positive reviews for competitors? Personally, I would guess that he is genuine.

I don't think 21 Rent.men reviews in a 90 day period is cause for alarm or for suspicion that the guy is fake. Although I don't think the Rent.men reviews are very useful, the process is very quick and easy. A few mouse clicks and a client can submit a review. Given that level of ease, it wouldn't surprise me if more clients submitted reviews than they have in the past.

 

Likewise, a guy having a plethora of reviews on Daddy's does not seem to me like cause for concern. AdamSimply, who was mentioned earlier in this thread, does not appeal to me, but he certainly seems to appeal to many other guys. I've never heard of him pressuring clients to submit reviews and his posts to the Forum have always been pleasant. Although I would not hire him, I do not think his ads or quantity of reviews raise any red flags. Escorts such as Rod Hagen and Michael Vincenzo also have plenty of reviews and I doubt anyone would suggest the number of reviews raise any red flags. I have hired both of them and neither one pressured me into reviewing them. In fact, I felt no pressure from either one of them in any way, which is why I always recommend them when they appear to be a good match for someone who is looking for suggestions.

That was exactly my point. 21 reviews in 3 months is highly unusual. Several of the reviews, however, appear to be rock solid. Whether or not the guy is your type wasn't the issue. The question was not whether or not you like tats. Still, all respectful comments are welcome.

But didn't one of the Seattle escorts you were interested in a few months ago have at least one view by a supposedly reliable Rentmen reviewer yet you discovered the escort was most likely using stolen pictures?

 

And I agree with you that 21 reviews in 3 months is pushing it. I don't care how easy Rentmen reviews are to do. M4RN starred reviews are even easier to do. And you don't see that happening very often.

That was my thought, too, but it seems Rent.men and Rentmen.com get more traffic than M4RN plus they seem to be less reviled.
