"Why do people insist on putting this as their status..why not just hide profile "

Apparently because this is more than a swingers site, so I've been told, several times, when I've voiced similar.

But how can they get the attention they crave with a hidden profile ?

Got it in one. Thats why they do it.

The 'not meeting at moment' profiles get more meets than the rest of us.

Maybe they like sharing pics. Maybe just like to chat. Etc

I think it makes you fair game, for more messages asking to meet .

When I had my single profile I hid it for that reason.

Because they don't want or have to. It's their profile.

Maybe because some people don't read the profile text...

Why should they hide because they aren't having sex? They may still be chatting to people and don't want to be a faceless profile-less nonentity. If people choose to ignore or not read what's on the profile about not meeting at the moment, that's their problem.

Putting up filters and blocks only means new people can't message and people they have already been messaging can still message.

It's a buyers market?

Wrong thread...

Even the not meeting ever brigade still need their pics fabbing

People use fab how they want to, which might not suit you, but suits them. I am not actively looking to meet, but enjoy the forums. If I hid my profile, I'd be yet another anonymous entity spouting off behind a keyboard (which I know I am, but you kn[w what I mean).

If I put that I'm not meeting at the moment, it means that. It's not to get more messages; I get enough with filters off already. I'm still using the site and sometimes still meeting people I have already met. I don't hide because I'm still here,

If they hide their profile people will not be able to make contact. They are not saying they do not want to communicate, they are just saying they don't want to meet at present.

So, in your own words 'sometimes still meeting people I know'

Thats not 'not meeting at the moment' thats 'meeting people you know at the moment'

See how confusing it is? No wonder us guys get it wrong...often. Applying logic to an illogical statement. Theres no hope for us.

Or they could put all filters on so no one new can message. That's what I've done, although I am meeting, just not arranging meets on here.

I've been very specific on my profile about meeting, what I'm doing on here currently and who I'm communicating with. I'm not trying to draw attention to myself I actually delete unsolicited messages unread. I don't have pics, I never have, so in theory I should have an empty inbox. But guess what, the unsolicited messages from guys keep coming. There are those that just wink which to be fair I think that is acceptable. I don't have filters because of the forum, I want to interact with ppl from threads. I don't see why I should hide my profile, I'm not misleading anyone, I'm being honest so as not to be accused of time wasting. I think it's unfair to hide my profile from those I interact with on the forum. I'm not trying to hide anything I even made the effort of going to the MLS because I wanted to go obviously, but also so the ppl on the forum I interact with know I do exist and I'm not a silhouette.

I fail to understand what's confusing about "not meeting at the moment", it seems cut and dried to me...

My profile is quite logical and to the point that makes no difference whatsoever

I often do this

I don't want to hide my profile because even though I'm not meeting at that present time I still like to interact with people on here who could be potential meets for the future

It's nothing about attention seeking for me
