Guest comment Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 As the one year mark approaches for this site it seems only appropriate to reflect and comment. I am not privy to any of the behind the scenes dynamics so my remarks are based on public observations. M.E.R. appears to have begun out of frustration maybe even out of anger. Two men, TY & TO, with complimenting styles joined forces to build a better wheel. I believe they have been successful. Design: The layout is carefully interwoven so that all of the parts work seamlessly together. This is no small undertaking as anyone with even a hint of web design can testify too. Early on there were some expected bumps in the road but management listened , prioritized and made the appropriate corrections. However, it's a never ending painting and I'm certain we'll see additional features as the site moves forward. Reviews: The old phrase quality not quantity comes to mind here. I much rather read one review that is detailed and truthful than ten reviews that are empty and not even verified. In my personal opinion TY has done an exceptional job of maintaining a unmatched standard in published reviews. TY cannot and does not control the content but he does appear to painstakingly research each review prior to posting. The review form is also a nice feature. The well thought out categories make it easy to obtain quick information on an escort or if the reader elects can get a more detailed view. Also, as I mentioned under 'design' it's refreshing that the reviews and profiles sections are intertwined. Forum: I have found this to be one of the more welcoming forums that I visit. The few sparks that fly are quickly doused and overwhelmingly people who participate here are quite respectful of each other. I personally feel that the occupancy will continue to grow as others discover this community. There is a wealth of information shared by the current members. Not many forums I visit have such knowledgeable contributors. Management: TY & TO have set the template for future adult site management. I have never come upon a site where feedback is actively sought, examined and responded too. TY & TO show an amazing amount of respect for their customers and in turn their customers give back that respect. What a concept. Summary: Not quite one year old and M.E.R. has already made its mark on the gay escort industry. Setting high standards in management philosophy and integrity is no easy task. TY & TO are accomplishing that task each day. To the site owners my appreciation and best wishes for many more successful years. Quote

Members marcanthony Posted December 15, 2006 Members Posted December 15, 2006 That's me in the 5th row, 8th from the left, clapping really hard. Couldn't agree more. I'd stand, but that lady with the hairpiece is stepping on my shoe. Quote
Guest twinklover Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 Marc, tell that old inconsiderate foot-stomping bitch to fuck off. I knew I saw you there. It's me, I'm there too. I'm fourth over in the third row in drag. You can't quite see my face because the man in front is blocking it. But I assure you, that's me. It has been quite a night here in SF as dear friends perform and take off for the Holidays. I had to chime in on this thread to add my highest praise and my warmest Holiday greetings to TY and TO, Barry, all the supporting cast, and all the good friends, escorts and clients alike, who frequent this site.

Members KYTOP Posted December 16, 2006 Members Posted December 16, 2006 This site has come along way in one year and is a part of my daily internet visits. Remember Hooboy's site also took time to get it's wind. Thanks guys and all those Hot escort pictures really add quality to this site. Quote
Members Buddy2 Posted December 16, 2006 Members Posted December 16, 2006 This a quality site in every respect. It is amazing what the people in charge have accomplished in less than a year. The people who post all seem like decent people. It is an honor to be a member. Quote
TotallyOz Posted December 18, 2006 Posted December 18, 2006 Thanks guys! We really do appreciate it. The past year has been a true labor of love. We have great plans for the future and we will keep getting bigger and better. Thank you for all your support! Quote
Members Lucky Posted December 18, 2006 Members Posted December 18, 2006 While I agree with all of the warm sentiments expressed at the nearing anniversary of this site, I do wonder if it is a sign of the times that we now celebrate the "almost anniversary." In the past, one would wait to celebrate until the actual date, but we are we now in such a hurry that we celebrate ahead of time? What's next...almost dead obituaries? Quote
TotallyOz Posted December 18, 2006 Posted December 18, 2006 Well, you made it to the 201st post within the first hour. If you post once an hour for the next 283.3 days, you will make your number. Happy Posting! Quote
