I was in "My Account" this morning but cannot find my Personal Comments section to update.

Great! I think it will be helpful to everyone for the "set search location" to be tweaked. Thanks.

Regarding #2, when I select "set search location", a Google Map is displayed. Above the map is a field to enter my target location. That field is already populated with a specific address in Flushing, NY. What are the odds that is the user's target location--miniscule. To be able to enter my target location, I must first delete that Flushing address. If most users want to search a location other than Flushing, then all of those users must do the same thing, delete the address that already is in that field. Assuming that this is true for MOST users, then have that field initially be blank, not filled with any address. The same logic applies to the map view that is displayed when a user initially selects "set search location". It makes more sense to me for it to show a zoomed out view, such as the entire USA, or whichever country has the most users in Houseboy.com. That way the user can immediately click on a spot in the map view instead of entering a location in the field above the map. Thank you for agreeing to display the registration date.

Regarding search results, I just did more searches to get a better feel of why I am getting the results that I am. It appears that results are based on distance from the set location, which is logical. I wanted to search only Wyoming because I will be vacationing there, but another of my search criteria was "newest". Consequently I was getting newest regardless of location but based on distance from the location in Wyoming that the website selected, e.g., I set "Wyoming", but the website pinpointed a specific location within Wyoming (probably because the website needs an exact location to be able to report distance in the results). Thus, using newest, type houseboy, age 18-45, distance 500, escort no, HIV negative, types slim and athletic, and location Wyoming, the website pinpointed a range of street numbers in Arminto, WY. All of the results are within 500 miles but both within and beyond Wyoming, and in no particular order of distance. I was guessing that the order in the sequence is the houseboy's registration date, but that information is no longer being displayed. When I repeat the search but without specifying "newest", the results are in the order of distance, which negates my guess that the registration date is a factor. In conclusion I have two recommendations for changes: 1) display the registration date (I'd like to know how long ago the man registered), and 2) when I choose to set the search location, do not pre-display a location in Flushing, NY because every user not in Flushing will have to delete that and replace it with the location they want.

I am trying to navigate the new format and am reserving judgement whether I like it more than the former format until I have more experience with it. Meanwhile, I have noted the following: 1) although my location has been updated, my listing still shows me in a different county; 2) my profile photo has me decapitated.; and, 3) I miss not being able to search another state instead of distance from my location. When I attempted to search Wyoming, results were in random order spanning multiple states and foreign countries. Robert

He gave me the same story two days ago. When I said my partner and I would drive to him to put gas in his car and that my partner would ride back in his car while I drove mine, he immediately hung up.
