Don't Believe The Hype

I have been observing something for a very long time but have now decided to say something about it. What is it? All of the false ads and bullshit many of the party promoters are using to get people in the door.

For example, there is a party promoter in the DC Area that going out of his way to let people know how superior his events are. If you have a great event, you should be proud of it. That is not my issue. What is disturbing is the fact that this person advertises the 18-35 age requirement and says that everyone there must be on point [ muscular and extremely fit]. Well i sent one of my boys to the party to see if he really was the hottest party in the city. The results were not shocking.

Let's consider the first fact that my boy exceeded the door requirement in every way. Plus being that i had known him for so long, him giving me the truth would not be an issue. Well he went to the party and stated that no one there was muscular except himself and the host. I do believe that if you go to a party, you must check it out at least three times to get a good feel for it because you can never tell everything about it just once. He did and reported the same thing.

My buddy said they had some very attractive thick men there. I wonder why the founder just didn't advertise that he had some of DC's hottest thick dudes. But I guess that wouldn't sell so he goes with telling everyone in the world that he has the hottest event in the city with all of these imaginary guys that are not showing up.

I think that its just a matter of time before his numbers decrease. You can only deceive the public for so long before true body boys actually show up to your event. Then when they arrive and you don't have anyone there that look like them, you are going to have some real issues because they are going to feel taken after they spent their gas money to come to your event after you have sent all of these over hyped advertisements . There was a review about the event on http://RatetheParties.ning.com and a guy said that when he went there was a six foot drag queen with tits fucking some fem guys...lol Now I don't take these review sites seriously so I sent someone there. He did verify that there were fem guys and there is nothing wrong with a fem dudes if you just let people know you have them....

When will people just state the truth. It seems that promoters fear telling the truth because it would mean that they would have to be on the same footing with everyone else and use content/experience to be successful instead of hype.

I suggest that if you see a party promoter talking about how " Premier ", " #1 ", " The Hottest " event you run as fast as you can. Why? Because these are just labels used to get you in the door and have not been verified by anyone else. Now if the party was rated hot by the local gay magazine or gay website then there would be cause for hype and celebration but when you give yourself acclaim it only smells of lies and an inability to accept the fact that you are just another party out here looking to create a good experience for people.
