Is it safe to hire and escort off of rent men

[bigvalboy]

From where do you hire now?

 

I am blessed to live in the heart of what is historically a very large and vibrant gay community. There are boys a plenty...everywhere. (The first of the month is best, rents due)

[AdamSmith]

Don't forget about restrooms...

Except restroom trade is usually free.

 

Especially when it looks like that!

Note @bigvalboy's sotto voce comment that pickings are best when the boys' rents come due.

Just curious. Seems like the OP got his question answered, so let me ask this.

 

For people who have had experience, how would you rate the REVIEW section of Rentmen? How reliable do you think they are? How easy do you think they are to fake? Several people have said above that it makes sense to crossreference profiles there with reviews here. Should that be taken as a vote of no or less confidence in Rentmen's reviews?

 

My very very very limited dabbling into it; i.e. The traveling pack of escorts, suggests that some of the reviews are real, because there were some bad reviews, but others sounded fake. One review about an escort that was alleged to scam essentially said this: "It was an incredible experience. I paid a lot of money to gawk at how beautiful he is. We didn't have sex, and I felt honored to buy him a meal." Sounded like total BS.

Steve,

 

I remember that 'meal' review. Either the guy was easily satisfied, had a 'meal' fetish, was totally bogus, or all of the above. But I don't think you can write those kind of reviews on Rentmen anymore. Nowadays they are more similar to the Star Reviews on M4RN.

When I look at reviews on rentmen.com, I see only summary scores. No narrative or detail. I have noticed when traveling that some features seem to be hidden in the US. (I saw more detail from Hong Kong and Amsterdam than I see when I'm in Phoenix.) Steven, can you give an example of a rentmen.com review containing more than just scores?

You can't anymore as far as I know. They stopped publishing those sometime after the Rentboy Raid.

This reads to me like honest sarcasm, not flattery. "Honest" in that it describes what happened; "sarcasm" in that it was not a positive experience. As such, I think it's kind of brilliant.

I agree it could be that. But I took it as a fake review by the escort. I think that's valid too since most of the reviews mentioned they didn't live up to their pictures.

That's how I read it too, and sufficiently veiled that unless he was alert to such language the escort would take it as a serious compliment.

[tennisjock]

I also search adam4adam on their professional section as well as massage sites. If you are interested in a porn star then you may be able to search their films and what they are like in bed(!on the floor) against the hay bale in the barn etc on man surfer.com and search via their porn name. I also agree where if one catches your eye more than others then you can ask here the 411 on the escort section and we can all chime in . Best of luck..in Las Vegas my go to guy is Derek atlas. Omg

Just to clarify, the words I wrote are a few sentences that (surprisingly for me) attempt to tersely summarize a much longer review. I put my own bias into the words. If I bothered to search for the original review and cut and paste, it would be much longer, and I had no question when I read it that it sounded like a fake review, and almost certainly was. The context also suggested that. The escort in question was part of the "Traveling Pack" and I think at the time there were only a few reviews, and one of them brutally laid out how he was a scammer. This was all last year, and I have dementia, so who knows if my recollection is exactly correct. I mainly used it as an example to illustrate the fact that some of the reviews sounds very fake, and I was wondering whether people who've actually hired off Rentmen had any positive or negative experiences based on the reviews versus the reality.

 

Much of this has been beaten to death on past threads (like last year) about Rentmen. I personally harassed them about a few escorts, in part to drive a discussion about what standards made sense, and whether the community of people who hire or get hired (as opposed to Rentmen staff) ought to be considered a partner in formulating such standards. Rentmen actually booted one escort, and at least made an attempt at verifying the Traveling Pack before deciding they were legitimate. It certainly painted the picture that people like me are considered sort of like bitchy whistle blowers, and that it is, at best, an ongoing game of Whack A Mole. Mostly I was wondering if anything has changed.

Thanks, VHC. I guess the site has changed. If I understand, and from scanning the reviews just now, it sounds like the narrative is gone and it now boils down to scores (# of stars) and a few basic questions, like whether you'd recommend the escort. It certainly sounds like it gets them out of the box of any accountability, legal or otherwise, for what the reviews actually describe in a post-Rentboy world.

Hey guys I am new to the forum. I am planning a trip this weekend and have been thinking about getting an escort. I have been checking out rent men. I have never been with a guy and want to give it a shot. I just don't want to get in any trouble. I will be heading to las vegas.

Given the lack of really good alternate sites for exploring escorts in many cities (and countries), Rentmen filled the gap after the demise of Rentboy. M4RentNow (M4RN) is not useful at all. I do know of the uselessness of the Rentmen reviews for the most part, but every now and then when you see a guy with a lot of 1--star reviews and statements about "outdated" photos... that is a great help.

I find that as a premium member of Rentmen, I can access contact info on a guy I am interested in, and 95% of the time it evolves into a pleasant, happy and enjoyable session. As for guys in LV -- one of my favorite's lives there, Antton Harri. He ages beautifully and is turning into a very voluptuous, versatile daddy https://rentmen.com/AnttonHarri.

 

I've been pleased with www.rentmen.com. For the most part I've been successful in my hiring and connecting with guys from this site except on two recent occasions. The two escorts whom I hired let me down "big time!" I'm still debating as to my writing reviews about these two. One is highly respected and has nothing but positive reviews on this site. The other one has no reviews here nor at rentmen. But in response to your query, try to make a careful selection based on reviews and the take of the guys here, and you should not go wrong, but do remember that everyone's experience or play will NOT always be the same, for there is something called "chemistry!"

[+ glennnn]

I use RM but only for the photos and videos which are usually clear and large enough to make out detail. My browsing is pretty much exclusively on Daddy's Reviews. However, I am lucky enough to be in So Cal where the escort ranks are full. I would never hire anyone who wasn't vetted and approved on this forum. NEVER!

Very curious. Why are you debating? You're an active participant of this site with a long history. Why would you hesitate to share your disappointing experience with the group?

 

I can understand some hesitance about posting in the forum. Many of us can be a bit over protective of our favorites. (Guilty as charged ) We've all seen someone get mob attacked. But why hesitate to write a fair and balanced review?

What's to prevent a negative review from getting mob-attacked too?

Nothing will keep it from being questioned by a popular escort's fan base, but I'm assuming someone with 10,000 posts knows how to word a review so that it doesn't come off as a personal attack. If someone with that kind of history and credibility can't report a different experience, this site is no more useful then the reviews on Rentmen.

True, but there have been instances where a negative review stirred up enough controversy that the reviewer later regretted it. Of course, it's also worked the other way, where someone didn't post a review and later regretted it.

I had always been reticent to post a negative review - at first because I was a newb but then for the reason you mention. My calculus changed after a particularly unpleasant meeting with a guy who was a clear rip-off artist.

 

I'm a bit more comfortable writing "satisfactory" reviews but take a couple of days to mull my opinions: did I have unrealistic expectations, is there some emotional element that is the true cause of the negative experience, is it simply a matter of chemistry, etc. When I do write the review I try to include only facts - no inferences - and be clear about the effect of what occurred.

For example "John met me in his hotel lobby 10 minutes after the start time. I stepped on a used condom beside his bed. John ushered me out of his room 15 minutes before the end of our 2-hr time." (This actually occurred.) You can infer and assume lots of things but including only facts in a review that isn't going to be glowingly positive can help diffuse conflict, or at least keep any ensuing dialogue from degrading into a bitchfest. "John treated me like crap" isn't particularly helpful or likely to go well with John's 500 best friends.

 

If a session wasn't good but there are no facts then there's likely an emotional element to my reaction and I do not write a review (but perhaps make a Forum comment that John's pictures are accurate and that he is who he says). There simply wasn't any chemistry.

In the vast majority of cases I'm excited about penning a glowing review and add to the usual facts lots of inferences and opinions. Given that we're moving away explicitly detailed descriptions of physical encounters ("John rimmed me like a jackhammer in a chuck roast") I've begun describing how the companion made me feel emotionally: valued, desired, cared-about, elated, fulfilled, etc., This is basically answering the question I always ask myself before meeting someone new: how am I likely to feel after meeting this person.

 

If someone takes exception to one of the handful of negative reviews I've submitted then we'll be discussing facts rather than opinions.
