Great idea!

I have been saying this for a while now. If there was a small charge to join (say a fiver) then it would cut the number of idiots who are only on here for a quick thrill and to dish out abuse to genuine swingers. Yes, you would still get some. But there would be a lot less of them.

Sorry but totally disagree, there is only idiots if you let them treat you like one .As for paying its not going to change the site its only as good as you make it paid or free.

And having to be verified before sending a message didnt we all start unverified ?

I think literally everyone could come up with a fiver idiots included if they were determined enough to pay for the pleasure of indulging their idiocracy so why not make it £1000 to join and £20 to send a message then im sure people would make more of an effort wjth their messages and the folk receiving the message would feel appreciated to know that someone spent £20 to contact them

Great idea!

Some of the paid members are as idiotic as the non paying ones unfortunately .. if not worse !!!

But I think paying a monthly cost would reduce the volume of them , plus the ones with the multiple profiles would maybe lessen .. IMO

It's cyclical sometimes you feel all you get is idiots and sometimes you get golden moments with new or old friends

Paying subscriptions won't change it. The block button is there to be used as is the message filters maybe a easier option would be for you to filter out non verified members etc as for paying why do you consider money to be the weapon to out idiots a determined idiot could repeatedly pay to create many profiles to annoy and abuse.

"....... The block button is there to be used as is the message filters maybe a easier option ....... "

But, unless I've misunderstood, you have to visit someone's profile in order to block them.

That almost inevitably leads to 'why are all these ******* looking at my profile' posts.

"As i said just think it would cut down on thw twats it wouldnt get rid "

How do you define a twat?

I pay my site supporter subs, despite the fact that I can't meet much, if at all, and I am photo verified.

So, is someone who meets every other night, isn't photo verified, and isn't site supporter a twat, or am I?

There are too many grey areas in your idea, and there will be a certain amount of site income generated by non paying members clicking on adverts, which currently aren't visible to site supporters. I'm sure that the owners won't want to lose that, nor piss off those who pay not to see adverts.

I dunno...

See a single person could have a profile as a single but have a couples one too. It's a fiver over 60 days for silver. Not a lot of money. And they could keep the real profile (ie the one they use for meets) as a non site supporter and have the fake as the paid one to make it genuine looking.

Why don't you block everyone and only message the ones that you like the look of, that way because you've gotten in touch, they can message you back and you hopefully won't get any unwanted hassle from randoms?

Of course, that would involve you doing all the initial work but I'm sure you wouldn't mind if it meant getting quality over quantity all the time?

There have been quite a few of these posts, even in the relatively few months we've been on here and as someone who works in the social media and digital industry, I can fairly accurately guess that the rise in amount of people and idiots on here is directly in line with any other social media or feedback platform.

Look at the feedback section of any daily newspaper website (the Daily Mail is always good for laugh) and you'll see the amount of muppets and trolls that post on there.

Moaning and trolling others has become something of a national pastime and the anonymity afforded by it being online encourages a lot of people to be complete cocks without the fear of much in the way of comeback or punishment.

Its the same on here, the idiots will think 'if I get a shag then great, if not whats the worst thats going to happen to me?'

Some kind of regular paywall would certainly put some of them off but sadly, you get total knobs at all levels of society, rich and poor, so it might not wipe as many of them out as is hoped.

Why not just accept messages from verified members and use the block button well?

Or hide the profile and pictures and you approach who you would like to meet?

Well i must say since joining this site i have found that its really no different to any other site other than the fact that yes there is more timewasters and frauds due to there being no fee but if your paying for the silver and gold subscription and your also photo verified and also have the verified from a meet then you should hopefully know that they are genuine. All i can say is dont chat with people that are not verified but even people that are verified can waste your time its really a no win situation i know the clubs and partys that are arranged are genuine swingers but some of us simply dont have time to attend if i could i would be a regular lol.

Been on fab on and off over 2 years - never once had my time waisted, met some fantastic people, had an absolute blast, there are some absolute gems on here.

If you take time to chat and socialise you can get a good idea of the lie of the land - plenty of hot people on here who aren't idiots, put some time and effort in and you'll find the people worthy of your time.

Block the idiots and move on - simples.

I agree the site has gone downhill but this is to be expected in some ways with the popularity (or rather notoriety) it has received in the press, etc. Still is a fab site though just needs a bit more self policing and patience to out the the timewasters and nutjobs!
