A sick mind?

[Guest albinorat]

I didn't read "Rick Monroe's" no doubt unpleasant response to my last post in his "bad review" thread.

 

I should perhaps have posted my first try in that thread separately. I mainly made an observation that some very popular escorts here promote themselves to a vocal fan base. They may or may not deliver in spades (I have heard of some who didn't, though they were not dirty, dishonest, nasty, or rude, they were just not 'fab'). My point is not to put down any particular escort -- the reviews are there and they are the basis of this site. It is to suggest that some clients who have less than wonderful experiences with this type of escort are unwilling to review a so-so or even 'good but...' type of experience.

 

Readers can make of that statement what they will. I don't like "Rick's" posting style. That's my right. He doesn't like mine. Ditto. However in the response I did read he did the usual trick of boards -- saying I've posted under numerous names (not so, only under this one, and all the moderators would know that). I have some crazy ax to grind against him (not really, but again my taste isn't the same as his. That doesn't make me a monster).

 

I don't lie about myself (I look like Jabba the Hut, have a b&d scene and adore twinks), so I only approach a few of the escorts here, and am turned down by about half I do approach. That's their right, and I always give an escort the option of leaving with $50 once he's seen me and we've talked a bit. I don't post about those situations or complain about them.

 

I wouldn't be inclined to hire "Rick" or his partner. That's my right and judging from the indications it's no loss to them at all. But I think it's a legitimate question as to when an energetic self promoter and a cheering section become "sacred", above criticism. When does such hype, however it comes about or whoever sustains it co-opt objective reviewing? Is "objective" reviewing even possible?

 

(I also think an escort who posts (and I wish more did) runs the same risks an asshole like me runs -- you may be attacked or find somone who doesn't like your posting. Tough. That's boards.)

 

Maybe those are dumb questions, I certainly have a sick mind -- I hire escorts after all. But I didn't intend to give offense, as I think a reading of what I wrote suggests. Apologies if I did give offense.

I think what you really mean to say is, "I read it but I had no reply, since Rick asked me in that post to explain my blatant attempt to damage his reputation by posting the following lie about him: I don't appreciate your contempt for those clients who aren't rolling in dough and really want a great time."

 

OF COURSE, instead of backing up your outrageous allegation with fact, which you cannot, you decided to play innocent victim, create this new thread, and continue to put words in my mouth.

I bet you could come up with a better use.

No, as it happens. I haven't read your response. I just don't care about you. I noticed you labeling me "a sick mind" and that was enough. Your technique is typical of message board bullies; first I am several dozen other people. Then I am a liar. Then you impute motives to me I don't have. Then you construct a scenario to justify fake anger so you can keep your name as a topic.

 

Darling, I've been there and done that. Shrug.

 

Just accept it, I don't care about you. You may well be terrific in person and you certainly have fans and friends here. Good.

 

As to the rest of your bullshit, above, your first response to what I wrote was contemptuous and you followed my point about the client who saves his pennies

 

<LOL>.

 

Seemed disrespectful to me. If you didn't intend that, sorry. Mighty touchy from one of the elect though. I'm surprised you just don't stand on those 300 great reviews or however many there are. That's a lot more important than anything I've said or

 

<implied>

 

or your ESP has told you I really meant about you.

 

And no, I don't like your posting style. But that's my taste. There are those who see my name and run for the pepto and burn salt. I don't blame them. I see my name and do that too sometimes.

 

With all respect, get over yourself honey, I'm not costing you clients or status or popularity here. My first post was a mistake, I posted it where it could be misunderstood, and it was. Sorry. But it happens.

 

And I am glad escorts post. It's interesting, enlightening and sometimes fun. Many have more to offer than I do. You don't in my opinion, but that's my opinion. It should be worthless to you.

I've actually never perceived a large amount of self-promotion here (or obvious, over-the-top gushing by any escort's "fan base"). Sure, escorts post their opinions, and many of those posts contain links to their websites. That isn't particularly pushy, it seems to me. In the "travel" section, escorts are encouraged to put little "ads" indicating their travel plans. That's an easy part of the board to avoid, if one doesn't want to read that.

 

I do find it difficult to believe that a client would fear posting a negative or less-than-glowing review, simply because the escort in question has a presence here and is well thought of. So what? On the other hand, if one hires an escort and has inflated expectations based on a history of positive reviews, I can understand that client being hesitant to post a review if his experience with that escort was just good, but not great. It would be hard to criticize the escort in that circumstance. (Can you imagine: "He fucked me good, but didn't make the earth move.") Instead, the client would have to think about how his fantasies and desires led him to hope for more than what can ordinarly be expected during a first meeting with an escort.

 

If you want true self-promotion (and a huge amount of brown nosing), check out "muscleservice". I used to enjoy that board a lot more, but now it seems like over half of the threads are about only 3 or 4 bodybuilders/escorts.

You gotta be kidding. With the exceptiong of Billy and a few of the steroid boys, they tear muscle men for hire apart on the muscleservice: "he's not a REAL body builder" "what crawled onto his head and died" "look at those traps, somedbody should tell him about barbell shrugs". And god forbid somebody says something good about someone who's not even 'roided out, then it is open season on the pathetic wafe of an escort, and the man who said he's hot.

Okay, okay...maybe I just avoid the negative threads. I tend to just look at the subjects and most do not appeal to me. My comment is based on the number of subjects that say things like "Happy Birthday to XXX", "XXX is coming to my town!", "My wonderful night with XXX", "New pictures of XXX" ad nauseum. (I have deliberately not mentioned the names, but anyone who goes to muscleservice will know the 3 or 4 guys du jour who are continually being slobbered over -- over and over.)

RE: A sick mind

 

I always enjoy both of your posts! I'm surprised at how thin skinned many escorts are about even mildly negative reviews. Those that respond cleverly can often turn a negative review into a very positive allure for those of us still interested. Rick seems in this interchange to exude a certain New York bravado and pride but from what I can see--it's probably justified. I'm tempted to contact him about his upcoming trip to Los Angeles not in spite of these posting, but because of them.
