After he got called on it by Rentmen, the emails supposedly being sent to him all mysteriously changed from @rentmen.com to @gmail.com, because JD finally figured out maybe he could get in trouble by abusing Rentmen's email system and servers.  

How does one create an email account on Rentmen? I’ve never seen this as a client option. Is it only available for escort members? What’s the significance if the email address is xxxxx@rentmen.com vs xxxxx@gmail.com?

SANDBOX?

It's been about a year since TampaYankee rettired hasn't it?

Wouldn't sending all these threads to the Sandbox be a sweet way to honor his years of selfless service here?

You asked, so I'll answer.  Again, my basic point is this:  the very act of having to go through this kind of slander and bullshit in minute detail diminishes this website.  But now let's go through the slander and bullshit in minute detail and diminish this website.

JD's latest extortion attempt started last month.  My escort friend who is being slandered sent me this email, which he received from JD, dated July 26, so about one month ago.  I redacted my friend's name and my real name:

Hey Babe,
How much is (Steven) behind in donations?
I'll make a contribution this week and have decided to do $100.00 per week
and not per month as I want to help towards the cause and help (Steven) catch up
to whatever he wasn't able to donate.
It's not about me or him - it's about helping Rentboy. Alot of escorts and
clients feel since (Steven) went out of his way to help make
me lose EOY and look bad on the forum,(and got back what came to him as it
serves him right) I'm going to give him the opportunity to make this all
right, and I'll be more then willing to do the same by helping him in
moving forward with the Rentboy fund.
What (Steven's) doing in raising money for Rentboy.com is for a good cause, and
do wanna help in however way I can as I don't want to see (Steven) fail in
regards to this.
I hope (Steven) can convince (Daddy) to make everything right again as I'm willing
to own up to my end of bargin(as you suggested) and contribute weekly
towards the cause along with contributing $50.00 a month towards Daddys and
Daddys Forum.
I need your help in this too, as you too need to convince Daddy of
getting things back the way they were as I feel you have a great influence
in turning this negative chaos around into a positive light just as well as
(Steven) can.
I think if you really want to see me succeed and are truly in support in
help getting my EOY back and such...you'd have your talk with Daddy as
well. Shouldn't be all on (Steven) as I'm sure you can help turn this around as
well.
I seriously need to get my EOY title and privileges back along with my
forum privileges, and reviews put back as it has hurt my business a great
deal.
I'd sleep so much better and wouldn't be so depressed If this can happen.
Please help with this if you can. PLEASE!!!
I would truly and graciously appreciate it very much.
Get me the information for (Steven's) donation page for Rentboy.Com and I'll
place a $100.00 donation this week.
If (Steven) wants to email or contact me he's more than welcome to and we'll see
what we can sort out.
I do want to be at peace with all of this and not at war anymore as I think
we all have gotten even and taught one another a lesson. After a the hell
that's went on how can one not learn a lesson from this madness.
Hope to hear from you soon...
Hugs,
JD

Does it sound to you like JD is being coerced and manipulated here?  Cause it sounds to me like JD is the one initiating a scam to get his EOY title back.  My friend did exactly the right thing and blocked JD and ignored the emails, as did I, until JD launched his public slander on this thread.  JD followed his typical pattern, and "Babe, help me because it would be really nice if you helped me despite the fact that I've already abused you" gradually transitioned into "You fucked with me and if you don't do what I want i am going to publicly fuck with you because you deserve it."  Welcome to the heart and mind of JD Daniels.

The whole premise of the email and the whole set of slanderous emails is ridiculous.  My friend was not on either of the two teams of people that were raising money for Rentboy last year.  It's not a priority of his, which is fine.  He is actually somebody that cautioned me about JD, before I met JD, and in retrospect I feel like I was a fool for not listening to him.  In my defense, at that time my friend was warning me not to trust JD mostly based on his own good intuition, not the type of documented facts about ongoing harassment and extortion and lies we have now.  Like many people, including Daddy and Oz, I wanted to give JD the benefit of the doubt.

The internal logic of this email makes no sense and is typical JD.  I was not "behind" on my donations.  In classic JD style, there are all these little insinuations that a website like this one is going to be used to make somebody look bad, and unnamed people are saying bad things about me because I somehow look bad.  I can post every fake email JD produced, but that theme just escalated:  that I was behind on my donations, unnamed people were saying bad things about me, and eventually JD decided to throw in that apparently I was also losing my house.  Needless to say, that came as a shock to me.

What JD sent this other escort was written as a series of replies to emails this other escort allegedly sent from his Rentmen account, according to JD.  I don't advertise on Rentmen, so honestly i don't have a clue about how Rentmen's emails or servers work.  This is all like a sort of weird, distorted Hillary Clinton thing.  I do know this.  At least two escorts I know have recently contacted Rentmen and Rentmen has put JD on warning for falsifying emails that he wrote but that he claimed were sent by other escorts through the Rentmen servers.  According to what I was told by these escorts, Rentmen did their due diligence and told the escorts the emails did NOT go through their servers.  (Que the keyboard.  In typical fashion, I'm sure JD will have some ridiculous explanation for that, if he is given a chance to lie more).

So for about a month I was receiving pretty much daily emails from my escort friend that included verbatim copies of forged emails written by JD that supposedly came from my friend's Rentmen email account and were addressed like this: "escort@rentmen.com."  (I removed the escort's actual name because this is slander and it should remain private.  He is blameless).  Then when the escort contacted Rentmen and they responded to JD with a warning, JD changed all the emails so they no longer read "escort@rentmen.com," they read "escort@gmail.com," consistent with the escort's own personal email address.  So I have a mailbox full of letters apparently sent from my friend to JD that first all came through Rentmen, and then came through Gmail.  Funny how once JD got warned by Rentmen, where all the emails were sent from magically changed to come from somewhere else.  And they all prominently include language that sounds just like JD, and not at all like my friend, for example the prominent use of the word, "BABE," as you see in JD's email above.

In the time we were friends I have seen JD act completely irrationally and do a lot of stupid things.  Lashing out at Daddy because Daddy wouldn't give JD whatever he wanted was pretty stupid.  But by far the stupidest thing JD is doing right now is poisoning the well between him and Rentmen.  Every escort I know views Rentmen as their primary source of income.  So if he fucks that up, he fucks up the whole show.  The person who has the most to lose from JD's antics is JD.  Honestly, to be brutally honest, my clients are incredibly relieved that I now having nothing to do with JD.  Most of them saw my association with him as an example of white liberal naivete, and many of them are (not inappropriately) laughing their asses off at my misplaced trust.  Score one for Bozo The Clown, Miami Looker, and a group that JD affectionately refers to as "JD haters."

As has been pointed out before, the self serving nature of JD's sudden passion for Rentboy's defense is transparent.  Last year those of us who defended Rentboy publicly and financially got a lot of shit from a lot of clients.  JD saw what was happening to me and others and headed for the hills.  I don't blame him for that, it was his choice.  But I do blame him now for manufacturing a pack of lies to slander me and a friend of mine, fuck with Rentmen, fuck with Rentboy's legal defense, fuck with Daddy, fuck with Oz, and fuck with all of you.  It's despicable, and it has nothing to do with the good of the community.

To end where I started, I think the very act of having this discussion diminishes me, diminishes JD, diminishes Oz, and diminishes this community.  A lot of people have endured a lot of abuse and 99 % of it has been kept private.  JD chose to make this latest slander public, and I held my fire until I became the victim of this public slander.  I have every right to call JD on it and ask that this slander be removed.  It is sad that he wants to keep inflicting new wounds, primarily to himself, which is why I think it would be merciful for him to just do what he claims he is doing:  work it out with a therapist, and get better.
