Only if a person has come on for the wrong reasons will they leave n never come back Dont think so.alot move on.swingin only an experience.alot find love.and alot bullied off site." That's my point though as a lot if on here looking for love on for wrong reasons so best leaving before get corrupted lol! Those bullied off site isn't on but as have the site to hide behind should use it as their chance for the first time to stand up for themselves n fight back as faceless n perhaps change their real life world as a result but if can't prob again on here for wrong reasons. So that leaves a good percentage on for the experience n from what see once hooked on swinging may take a break but nearly always at some point come back again for fun. Then again just speaking from my experiences on here n people know others may not agree | |||

"bullied off the site thats a bit extreme... you know of these people hal? Its not extreme, I know of at least three females that have left the site due to obnoxious twats who tried to bully them into a meet" To be fair now it's not just guys harassing females Women aren't all whiter then white. Seen many a smear campaign against guys ( and other females) over the years I've been here, not just the forums but chat | |||

I think people forget that they don't actually have to read every message they get. You can just ignore them or even delete them. That's why I find it hard to buy into the whole "bullied off the site" thing. | |||

" Maybe for you. But not everyone has a thick skin. We all have good days and bad ones and it just takes that one remark at the wrong time to really hurt. It's being human. " I'm as sensitive as anyone. I'm also an adult though, on an adult website where I would certainly not be if I didn't have an ability to ignore bullying behaviour. I would suggest that if people take the comments of anonymous bullies to heart, then maybe they'd be better off staying away from here altogether. As long as I've been here, the one constant I've noticed is the abusive ones who constantly appear, eventually get banned, but show up soon after with a new profile, so bullying here is a fact of life. All I'm saying is that on a relatively anonymous site like this, it is so much easier to deal with it than it is in the real world. | |||

Nobody said they're not being bullied. It's about choice. If you get a message from someone who's been abusing you, why in the name of God would you open it? Delete! Block them, nó more messages from them. Because maybe that person has opened a new profile and I personally do not possess the skills to see whats in a message without opening it!!! So you read one. If it's abusive, you block. One message hardly constitutes constant bullying. Bullying is bullying whether it's constant or a one of remark. " Not so sure about that. Surely for it to be bullying there has to be a repeat element? Again, aren't we talking about how to deal with it? Am I the only one who has thought of this novel way of trying to deal with it? | |||

"Exactly...bullied into turning off ur phone or laptop....bullied into leaving True. If someone has to resort to turning off phone/laptop to avoid/ignore abuse then they are being bullied.

I've been abused several times in the past day , my tongue is sharp enough to come back at them and my backbone too.....but others may not. They shouldn't have to deal with Mick....simples !! You and I don't need to block people because we can handle the abuse. It's the people that can't handle it who need to block. That way they don't have to deal with it. " We arnt going to agree on this subject buddy so drop me out...but I'll say this to you . if you'd have seen some of the case studies I've been going through recently about online abuse,bullying,grooming etc...and the devastating effects it leaves apon a person you may just change your mind .

" Maybe for you. But not everyone has a thick skin. We all have good days and bad ones and it just takes that one remark at the wrong time to really hurt. It's being human. I'm as sensitive as anyone. I'm also an adult though, on an adult website where I would certainly not be if I didn't have an ability to ignore bullying behaviour. I would suggest that if people take the comments of anonymous bullies to heart, then maybe they'd be better off staying away from here altogether. As long as I've been here, the one constant I've noticed is the abusive ones who constantly appear, eventually get banned, but show up soon after with a new profile, so bullying here is a fact of life. All I'm saying is that on a relatively anonymous site like this, it is so much easier to deal with it than it is in the real world. im not sure if you are being deliberatly obtuse or what. an adult can still be bullied mick. regardless of wether they are on an adult site or in work or wherever. Its not over sensitive either. Did someone say that bullying doesn't exist? I certainly didn't. I did say that it's easier to prevent yourself from being bullied here than it is in the real world. you are suggesting removing yourself from a situation where u are being bullied. In turn letting a bully win. just go away and come back when you have calmed down after getting upset that you are being bullied....mick i thought better of you than that." I suggest you go back and have another read.I suggested ignoring them, blocking them, deleting their messages. If for some reason those things don't appeal to you, and you're getting riled and about to get yourself in trouble, stand back from the situation. It's pretty logical actually. | |||

"This is not specifically in mails.blocking is the easy part....its forum bullies that has been spoken of here also. But look mick you dont believe it goes on here so we will just end the conversation here.its a no win situation this topic.just count ur blessings that ur not the one being bullied." May I refer you back to almost every post I've made on the subject. You might notice that I've mentioned about five times that bullying goes on. On your final point, you may actually remember a period where everytime I posted, a certain someone would follow me like a lost puppy posting abusive bile. It took a few months before that stopped. | |||

"I've been called a bully before on here simply cos I don't share the same opinion as others and am not worried about voicing it. Way I look at it is, if yer on the internet and posting publicly you are going to attract this kind of thing, just the way of the net and I can't see it changing" How could a cute wee thing like you be called a bully | |||
