"This hobby is free for me!"
 
   My experience thus far in this hoby goes in 4 east steps:

1. Drive to some strange city

2. Wait around in a hotel parking lot for a half hour

3. Drive home

4. Jerk off

I always pick a provider who has at least a few obviously not fake reviews. Still I get about an 80% failure rate. I'm not sure where I'm going wrong. Anyways I just needed to vent.

Yeah.. I'm addicted.

   Their will be some no shows and flakes---put 80% failure rate is high. Try WELL-REVIEWED girls working from apartments and do not
drive up in a marked police car in uniform.

   80% failure rate?! How is it possible you could choose that badly? I've been on RB for almost 3 yrs and have had only one flake. Something happened and she had to cancel (and it was too late to get a plan B). Where are you picking from? I don't look at CL and I mainly stick with $200/hr RAs in the South Bay Asian Massage section of SF Bay Area Adult Personals. Try to stick with well reviewed providers. Occasionally come across one I have to TOFTT with. Turns out OK most of the time.

   The problem is I dont think I'm choosing all that badly. I've never tried to see a provider with no reviews. I've never tried to see a provider with one or two of those obviously fake reiviews where the guy only has written one review, or just a few and they are all "10/10 OMG my all time ATF!!".

The providers I try to see are mostly east bay milf types but I go for others as well. The one I tried to see today had like 4 pages of mostly positive reviews.

I've never tried CL, all I use is RB. Oh, and I almost always try for afternoon apointments. I wont write anymore flake reviews because I dont want the majority of my reviews to be flake reviews.

If I'm going to continue this hobby I'm going to have to change my attitude. Maybe I'll look at like I'm just going for a nice drive and when I arrive there is a small chance I might get some pussy. But probably not, so I'll just go find a place to get a steak and a couple beers.

   "If I'm going to continue this hobby I'm going to have to change my attitude."

Actually, Vinny, it seems to me that you've got a pretty darned good attitude, given the horrible rate of success that you're experiencing. If the common experience of others responding on this thread can be taken as the overall norm, then what you've experienced is an aberration and not representative of the actual average rate of provider flakiness. Therefore, do not abandon hope and turn to porn and masturbation.

Sounds like you've focused in on providers with lots of really excellent reviews. It's possible that these girls have lots of business and are less hungry and therefore less invested in any one client - especially someone new to them. Perhaps trying a few promising newbies (see the weekly newbie thread for prospects) with only one or two reviews to their credit might work well for you. Girls that are new to the biz and serious about making some money know that they need to establish a good rep from the get-go and are concerned about receiving good initial reviews in order to do so.

If that doesn't work, then just put aside the money that you've allocated in each instance into a bank account and soon you'll have enough to fly to Thailand where I absolutely guarantee that you'll be able to get righteously laid for an absolute minimum of coin!

How is a $200 RA any different from the 160s or even 140s? sorry for a noob question

   When I see posts about B&S, RA/PO flaking, etc, chances are it's about a $160 or less org. $200 orgs are not immune from problems but don't see it as much. If you are trying to see a provider from CL, that is really playing provider roulette. Escorts/AAMPs/AMPs seem to have a hierarchy like the SW world. You have to spend more for the better ones (looks/service/reliability).

Greater chance pics are fake with $160 or less orgs. B&S. Actual RA often MILF. Not good unless you like MILFs. Although, I hear they compensate by upping service (MSOG, etc). If you are going to go with a $160 or less provider, I would wait until some reviews/minis are posted so you know what the situation is. I've seen only a few $160/hr RAs. They were nice but not as attractive as the $200/hr providers I normally see. But that is just my experience.

Most of the time, if the pics look TGTBT and the price is $160 or less, the pics are probably fake and it's a crap shoot what you are going to get. $200 orgs are not immune from fake pic usage but don't see it as much. They do use varying degrees of photoshopping so RA may or may not resemble pics.

   That annoys the shit out of me. Nothing more demoralizing than seeing dudes go into bars/clubs and get lots of pussy for free while you have a wad full of cash in your pocket and can't even get p4p.

If you have the funds and a passport, travel overseas to a well known p4p country. You'll fuck so much til your dick falls off. Afterwards, you'll come back to the bay area and won't even care about flakes. You'll just be thinking about your next trip.

   <<You'll fuck so much til your dick falls off.>>

Well, lets hope not. In any case, the OP did not provide much in the way of details in setting up your appointments. Perhaps something said in his appointment-making is scaring them off? I would recommend the OP read the faqs if he has not done so. I have blundered a couple of times in making the appointment, only to get myself cancelled.

In response to message #0
 
   It's not free, you're paying for gas. And, assuming your time is worthless, which, if you are making enough to afford to make appointments, it isn't...

Where are these strange cities? How far away? Could be a lot of money you're wasting.

Look. First problem. Hotels? No fucking way. I don't meet girls in no hotels. Flay-KAY!

Pick a provider that works out of a studio of her own, or one she shares with several girls. Or pick a house (i.e. Garden of the Goddess, Temple of Bliss, etc.) or an AAMP/AMP where there are tons of girls just waiting. No way they can flake on you-- there's a smorgasbord to choose from.

The hotel thing sounds like fail to me. I have seen girls in hotels, very rarely, and the only (1) time I've been flaked on, was a hotel incall.

Just to balance things out, I see ladies in hotels all the time (apartments and houses too). I have my share of flakes, but not from the ladies who have outstanding reviews from reliable sources. Get to know the tastes of some of the reviewers who write about ladies you're into and then try to get a sense for who you can trust. It'll pay off in the end.

Edit: Oh yeah, and you can't trust someone just because they have a lot of reviews. Some of those are shills, braggarts, or outright liars.

Vinny, you're a charter member. Is this seriously the best you could do with at least 8 years hobbying? I'm assuming your post is at least partially hyperbolic. I hope it is, anyway.

And I have to ask... Only 15 posts after all this time? Welcome, lurker! Anything else you'd like to get off your chest?

   I dunno about you but it's very easy to google RB posts by handle. If people use the same handles for other things it's very easy to have RB posts discovered by SO etc...that might be a good reason not to post often.

   I signed up many years ago and then barley ever looked at the site for over six years. I was going to AMP's exclusively and didnt realy need it. Now most of the good AMP's are gone so I'm back to using this site. I'm tired of that AMP experience anyway, only because its pretty much the same thing over and over again.

   If you ever go to LA, check out the listings under Asian escorts for Los Angeles on CV. Rates a little bit higher but lots of eye candy and expanded service. Check out reviewed providers for best results. I've haven't been flaked on or disappointed so far.

   Maybe you should think of yourself lucky. At the end, it is the same result; your rocks are off, but think of all the money you saved/invest toward XYZ. Who said, everytime you jerkoff you saved $200, and you saved 80% of that.

You're doing somethings wrong obviously. Follow the ads for a while to get a sense of who is out there, what the ads look like. Pick a girl who has at least 4 good reviews. Always click on the "profile" button at the bottom of their page to see if they have different ads w/photos. Google the tel. # to see if it's listed under different names, if RB 411 pops up, different review sites, etc. Tineye the photos (asians come up more for some reason). Call her and does she sound spaced out? Is there talking in the background? Ask her what time you should confirm. I will never drive more than 30 minutes unless it's an AAMP. If you do drive more than 30 minutes for an indie don't tell them you're driving from far away. Never leave home before you confirm (if you pick out of area you can't follow this rule). Never set anything up more than 24 hours in advance unless you KNOW the provider is solid. The more flakey you think the girl is (young, new, etc..) the less time between the call and the visit. Have a back-up within the area. If each step checks out go and see her.

Follow these rules and 99% never get burned. I've only not been able to connect once or twice since joining this site.
