"Less Drama and I agree with the less men until it was in the press comment. Deffo get an influx of instashaggers anytime it is in the press. " The funny things is that every time a thread like this appears a lot of people say that disagreements on the forums these days is mild in comparison to years ago when there was all out war. The non forum related drama has always been here and I know many people who left the site years ago and never returned because of drama and information sharing. | |||

"I was on here about 10 years ago. Not much change as far as I can see. I don't get as many messages as I did back thenbut I put that down to me being 10 years older" Why do you thing the age has a made a difference?? There surely is a shift in over all behaviours aswell,esp the last five years socially! Ie, more get up and go and meet! Now there are more tools,like mobile phones,pics,vids,apps. But less urgency to meet people face to face. When most of it can be done over media! | |||

"I keep reading comments about how great fabs was years ago, how things have changed… What was it like? My first profile on here was years back…nowt has changed for me. What am I missing?" Back in my day, Fab was all fields!!! Why did you leave first time round, Red? So many things have moved on. Us, for starters. We’re all older, wiser, less susceptible to bullshit, more aware of our peers’ foibles. Everyone now has the internet at their fingertips on smart phones. I used to log on once in the evenings, on a laptop, send some messages then go back to watching channel five It’s so much easier for greater and more diverse numbers to join. Covid drove us online for many more things, not least interacting with people. But I think the rate of decline in manners and social niceties is increasing exponentially, not least online and most noticeably on sites such as fab. Basically, it’s easier to be a prick to more people these days. | |||

"I haven't seen many changes in 6 years apart from an influx during lockdown but very little else has changed. There have been references to how much better the forums used to be accompanied by a lot of name dropping but my experience has been that some of the names dropped weren't very inclusive so it's horses for courses and very dismissive of the current batch of forumites. " You may not see it,but you sure can sense and feel it. Transparent observation right here!! | |||

"There was life before mobile phones and the internet, and a good life it was too. " You know, I'm not sure. It was a good life, but it was much harder to do anything! Queuing at a bank? What's that about! I love the internet and I love my phone. I would massively miss both if we had to go back to an analogue existence. Though it was lovely as a pre-mobile teenager when you could just stay out and not be hounded...and then just say you lost track of time... | |||

I am 40 years older than you so my good life would be much earlier than yours, notably the swinging sixties. | |||

I don't think anythings really changed in the last 15 years, except there's now videos, the mobile version of Fab and a whole bunch of new people getting disappointed daily that it's not a sex on tap site. But then there were a fair few of those back in 2008 too..... A | |||

"No one’s said it (I think) but the elephant in the room is surely the (disproportionately growing) number of accounts that are just here to market their ‘content’ on other sites I know the whole sex sells thing, but that’s not what this site is for though!" No, but anything about sex online is increasingly commercialised and commodified it seems. This site hasn't escaped that either. Add to that the increase in profiles on here that are mainly just looking to be active on the forums (especially politics sub forum) and not actually swingers looking to have fun on here and not just rant and offend others! Those who know who I'm on about... Will know who I'm on about. | |||

"Sigh. I can see the way this thread is going, and I’m not about it. People can use the site however they like, as long as it’s not against the rules." You were asking how the site has changed. That's a very open ended question. What I mentioned is objectively true as well to anybody who is regularly in the forum and has eyes to see. Sure you could say no rules are broken people can use Fab however they wish, but is it necessarily making this site as good as it used to be(debatable in itself but that's a question for another time) or just generally a good site to be on today? That is how Fab has changed. Fab and the swinging community on here increasingly feels like it no longer knows what its on about or for. | |||
