As much as it's a workable idea, for whatever reason it WILL NOT HAPPEN! " As I and many others have stated on other posts, other sites charge single males and it doesn't seem to have any noticeable effect on time wasters. People who waste time have money as well. If you believe that only people who pay are genuine, then why not choose to only be contacted by site supporters, people who voluntarily choose to pay a fee instead of a mandatory sign up charge. Again there is nothing to stop a time waster from paying that either, but if you believe it helps then it's an option | |||

"So when we start charging men, then the men who are just signing up to get cheap thrills sign up as women. So we charge women. Then they sign up as couples. Then the sight is free for no one and there will still be the same people signing up and quitting." why not just use the filters and stop contact from new members or non veri..? or am i missing something ? | |||

As another gentleman mentioned though, you can set your filters to prevent new members messaging you! | |||

"As a member for a while now and completely free n single dude, I do note that it's actually quite a task to get replies from the beautiful ladies of fab. Frustrating at times even! I guess they just have so many messages fill up their inbox from us horny lot that us men, often in vein, just have to try that bit harder to stand out. I have a honest profile etc. Take time to actually read their profiles so to then speak to the person not just the hot photo or inviting status. Message more than "hey nice tits luv". A gentleman yet some cheeky banter when needed ...... And still only the odd reply..... If I wasn't as comfortable in my own skin as I am, I would be wishing I'd been born 6'4" with perfect teeth about now ^^ Keep up the good fight fellow squires of singledom x " Not sure why you find it hard to get replies... Yummy! | |||

I don't think it's fair to charge us for being on here though....I'm a genuine guy but because of the volume of guys on here I'm overshadowed . | |||

"As a single guy I find that none of my mail gets read - pretty much just left or deleted. I think the place is overrun as you say and a lot are fake and useless. Gives us a bad name... So I had a thought. What if all single men were not able to send mail. Only respond. That way people search us out and can mail if interested. I think no one actually has time to search for a single man at the moment because they're swamped so no one bothers Thoughts..." That's unfair, they should be allowed to message other single males | |||

"There are many many profiles on here that are not entirely genuine. Men parading as women Cpls profiles where the wife has no idea the male half wants her to have an ffm Many females profiles are single guys or guys in deliberation of their feminine side too. It is truly hard for single guys on here agreed. Traditional swinging is no longer the norm. Verifications, length of time served and photo verifications can also be an issue. Some guys turn nasty when you are honest because their profile uses photos that are not of them? But think they deserve a chance when honesty is something I expect in their messages. As a single lady on here for years now I'm happy to give most guys a chance to chat! That said I never ever promise to meet unless I'm certain they're on the same page as me. I've swung for many years and the "swinging scene" is nothing like it used to be years ago. I've swung as a couple (how swinging was considered only originally) and more recently as a single. You get a feel with time served for those that are genuine and those that just want help to get their rocks off. I personally don't do cams or phone sex. If it's not interactive with another person or persons then to me it's not worth it. That said Cams can be a great tool to see if cpls are genuine and if guys are their pictures. Even if only for a few minutes. With the advantages of FaceTime and kik these days there are many ways to get the feeling right for any person on here in minutes. It all depends on how serious the individual or cpl is about their chances on here. Patience is rarely found amongst the single guys / couples I've noted and the demand for us "unicorns" is soooooooo high it's why is single ladies are very dismissive. I try to answer everyone but that said somedays the inbox is just too full to manage them all. So I tend to read through the profiles of those that interest me and develop conversations with those clever enough to find more than "Hi" or "How are you" and ignore those just firing random crude messages mid wank at me. So there is no cure.... to charge is a pointless exercise. It is already an expensive pastime/lifestyle in the club circuit for single guys so it's not really the answer. Just be savvy and aware of the guys feelings before dismissing them. And guys if you have issues spelling and reading say so then we understand why text speak is necessary in your messages. Happy swinging folks. Onwards and upwards Horacio I say " Absolutely nail on the head , I wish everyone shared your understanding and good manners, thanks for posting this HG X | |||

" Use the filters to stop newbies messaging you, job done" Exactly. since I turn the filters on I haven't been pestered once. Now it's just blokes pretending to be women. You can't win! and it's no surprise this site has a bad name. | |||

"As a couple we get a lot of interest from single guys. Our experience is 90% take no time to read the profile and make no effort to tailor their response to the couple. This surely perpetuates the frustration on both sides i.e. the couple irked that the response is inappropriate/not what they have said they are looking for and the originator equally irked that they haven't received a response? We have tried stating preferences in our profile and use our status message to prompt people to read before replying but it seems to no avail. We will always try and take the time to send a courteous reply (even if its a polite no thanks) to those that have sent considered messages but alas suspect this will be the exception rather than the norm. Whether you agree or otherwise with the above is of course a personal point of view..its simply our experience/view as a couple..." I see folks (couples and ladies) post responses similar to this..^^^.. bemoaning berating single guys.(and other genders) .. The solution is within your control ... Yep you can block single guys from messaging you ..or couples or any gender ...that way you'll not receive messages from folk who haven't read your profile or preferences ..as I see it you can set your filters or hope that others change their behaviour , I know what's easier to do... it does mean you'll need to be proactive ..searching messaging etc.. | |||

Some of us feel a little uncomfortable sending endless messages so will refrain and perhaps just send a wink instead putting the control of contact into the recipient hands as to initiating contact.

"We've had lot's of fun in the past with "solo males" and will continue to do so BUT we agree with the OP that this "now you see me - now you don't - I'm back!" is a truly time-wasting malady. They waste every-bodies time and seem oblivious to the fact that they make themselves untenable to those of us able to see what they're doing. It's natural that some guys have a "moth to the light" relationship with social swinging BUT are there more sinister reasons? It's a very good way for an unattached guy that has created issues and multiple blocks to wash off their past! None of the filters work perfectly, the astute will always know a way around them, so if Admin agree this is something they need to attempt to prevent. It depends just how reliable the static IP address is for the "offender" for if it is fixed then "old accounts" can be locked if deleted and multiple new accounts limited to only so many per year . . that number being ONE we would suggest. " I agree that the IP address should be locked out however if a genuine member wants to take a break for whatever reason perhaps they could pay a fee to hold the profile for a set time. They could then restart the profile if the reason they stopped changes and not get locked out by default, If deleting the profile will automatically get the IP address locked the time wasters will have to pay to disappear and reappear and of course any blocks or bad feedback will still be on the profile. | |||

"Basically, single guys get treated like dirt as it is. Look at clubs. They charge men nearly 5 times as much as ladies. Imagine if it was the other way around. People would start an uprising, but nah, single guys should be treated like dirt, am I right? " If it was the other way round and ladies where charged 5x's as much how many ladies do you think would be in the club. Yep none! Then the fellas would complain. Women are the minority that clubs want to attract. It's just good business sense. If you don't like it don't go, get your meets off here. | |||

" No, I think he's got a point there. There are women on here looking for single guys, quite a few say that they block all guys and search themselves, if all women had to do that, they'd find their way to the genuine guys eventually. Plus, I quite like the idea of being chased for a change. | |||

"Admin, There could be a way to help cut this down a little. I am also a web developer so do know what I am talking about before anyone comments lol. You could - if you do not already - record the users IP address when they register and keep this in your DB. When a new user registers it looks to see if this IP is already registered to an account. If so it gets flagged with Admin for further confirmation before it is created. I have done similar on another site so happy to talk in more detail if you want, just PM me." Surely as a web developer you're aware that this would only be useful for static IP addresses, considering the amount of profiles I see created new via mobile phones it's only going to be a very limited help | |||
