FabSwingers.com forum: A way to flag unfriendly couples

The majority of couples on here do not reply to messages or party invites. A good feature would be to mark them or remove from searches so you don't waste your time messaging them again.

You can block them but that penalises the couples that genuinely hit delete by mistake or don't have the time to reply on that occassion.

If they dont reply or delete then its obvious they dont want to meet so cant see why you dont just block them then you cant bother them again.

We've had messages weeks after the original message starting "Sorry for late reply, we've been very busy...". That has ended in a fun meet we wouldn't have had if we used the block mechanism.

So what happens if the people you want to flag up as being rude eventually answer your mail?

Then you unflag them. I'm thinking only of a feature personal to yourself just to keep track of those who reply and those who don't. As two of us on this profile we don't know exactly who we have both contacted and not to contact the ones who don't reply again.

Could also can it a waiting to reply flag.

Site supporters already see who they've contacted (and who has replied) via the profile page they're viewing. This would do what you want.

We messaged a couple in Newcastle last december, never got a reply. Then last week they sent us a message apologising for the delay! What would you propose to do in a situation like that?

Exactly my p

oint. Don't want to block. Just flag so you can see on browse list. There are two of us and we lose track of who we have contacted and we do not want to pester genuine people who haven't gone around to replying for whatever reason.

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

Make a list on a sheet of paper?

I use the private notes section to make a note of those that said no or just deleted without a response so I dont bother them again.

What about something like a hotlist. If they reply, you add them to it.

if they don't reply, and thisis the clever bit, you don't add them to it.

BOOM! what an ide....oh it's already a feature

Yes this.

I put a date and comment so I remember what I like or don't like

And possibly my expectation.see below

I have high hopes sometimes so I don't always block right away. Maybe I'm too curious. Lol

Feb21 responded to party invite - they never replied back.

There's a notes feature, you can add private notes on a profile that only you can see

May not be a flag but least it's something

Why not utilise the hotlist feature, just because its titled hotlist it could be your flag list just put people in there you want to tag

We try to answer all messages, but the sender must of read our profile to get a response.

The ones that seem to moan the most are the ones that will fire off a one liner, (or even a one worder...lol.)...

We look at it this way, if they cant be arsed, then nor can we.(That is why we use the private note system)

last week a guy messaged and gave us a abusive message, just because we said "thanks for the interest, but it will be a sorry from us"..(so we cant win either)

Then yesterday sent a message saying he had just come across our profile...lol.

No point reporting them, the site just blocks them from you and you from them...our friends can still see them..

Just move on we say
