FabSwingers.com forum: A new function for Fab..

Hi folks

Was curious to see how many people would like a "poke" function to be added to the site, like other social media sites. It could be a way to get someones attention or get in touch...

Just thought I'd see if it were possible

It would annoy the hell out of me. We get enough messages so this would be just something else!

Kinda like if you could send a wink to someone?

Doesn't the wink function serve the exact same purpose already though?

Winks already exist and as far as I'm aware nobody uses them.

Women would just receive a bunch more notifications for the pokes, which they would ignore because it shows no effort on the part of the man.

And no men would ever really receive them so it's a bit of a pointless idea imo

I think the wink button works in the same way but would love more emojis added.

the poke could be a more immediate alert to activity. I can understand if you get hundreds of messages, or thousands of winks, but the vast majority of the folks on the site (myself included) are not troubled by the massive burden of sorting through the quagmire of messages.

Just a thought

Not to mention you have to wait 30 days between winks? That's about useless as an attention getter...

Isn't a poke the same as a wink?

Cool idea. How about a feature like texting, where you can write a message and send it to them. That would be good too

Or how about the ability to give pics a thumbs up if you like them? That would be novel

Or a forum for site feedback and suggestions so the lounge doesn't get cluttered
