Impostors Galore!

November 10th, 2009

I have already deleted my accounts in most of the gay social networking and dating sites about two months ago. This means that I should no longer be seen on sites like PlanetRomeo, Downelink, Connexion, Gaydar, Gay.com, etc.

However, recently, an office friend told me that he saw me on PlanetRomeo. I told him that I don’t have an account there anymore and that he probably saw it some two months ago. He retorted and said that it was fairly recent that he saw me there. Or at least he thought it was me. Apparently, someone thinks I’m goodlooking enough that they used my photo for their accounts.

So my dear friends who are on PlanetRomeo, if you see a profile with a photo of me, it only means one thing, the guy is an impostor!

To the impostors who use my photo, thanks. At least someone thinks I’m goodlooking enough to use my photo for the betterment of their dating and sex lives.

Guys4men+PlanetRomeo: Are You Happy About It?

March 24th, 2009

Guys4men has finally merged with PlanetRomeo and there are mixed reactions from the users of what used to be guys4men. I have, however, seen more dissonance than appreciation of this change. And I can relate to many of those who think that selling merging guys4men with PlanetRomeo was a bad idea. Long before this merger, I already had accounts with both g4m and planetromeo/gayromeo so I’m already used to the interfaces and platforms of both networks. Honestly though, I still prefer the old guys4men interface.

Prior to the merge, Guys4men was the premier social networking site for gay men in the Philippines. But now, I’m not sure if the users are all too happy about Planetromeo.

What do you Think?

There are quite a number of reasons why users of guys4men are not so amenable to this change, so let me name some of them based on my own observations: » Read more: Guys4men+PlanetRomeo: Are You Happy About It?

Guys4Men to Merge with PlanetRomeo

March 1st, 2009


Guys4men is one of the biggest and largest(oh boy do we love big and large things) gay dating sites in the Philippines. And I personally think that it has the best interface among all dating sites that I’m a member of (yes, I’m a slut like that).

PlanetRomeo (also known as GayRomeo) is actually one cool site, which I am a member of too.  If you’re not quite familiar with PlanetRomeo, the guys4men notice says it’s quite similar to guys4men in terms of functionality and vision. Also, PlanetRomeo has more members in Europe. So add Asia + Europe (Guys4men + PlanetRomeo), then you have a Eurasian gay dating site! Charot. The two sites are set to merge on March 18, 2009. According to the merger’s press release, Guys4men user profiles will be moved to the PlanetRomeo web application. What this means for existing Guys4men users is that all their profile contents will be moved to PlanetRomeo, but they will not have to do anything. However, there will be a short time between now and the March 18 merge when Guys4men members will not be able to access the site.

In addition, all Guys4men members will be receiving a PLUS membership (PlanetRomeo’s version of the Supporter Status) for 6 months! Guys4men members with existing SitePoints (I have close to 300 – all referrals!) will have them translated into PlanetRomeo Plus membership in a pro rata allocation.

For those who are NOT interested in joining the merger, all they have to do is delete their guys4men profile before March 18.

Those who opt-out of guys4men before then will not be automatically transferred to Planetromeo, and will miss out on the free Plus membership.
