FabSwingers.com forum: Swinging site or bitch fest?

By (user no longer on site) OP

Been quite a few posts recently slagging people off or reporting they have been slagged off publicly.

How about we all just remember why we are here? To have fun.

You wont like everyone. Everyone wont like you. Just be polite and move on.

Anyway who has naughty plans this weekend?

Lets lighten the tone a bit xx

Sadly over the last 9/10 years the forums have been full of these posts and doubt it will ever change ....

This weekend no plans as yet although still time

I would suggest cake but think that's on the banned list these days

Or at least frowned upon

I am afraid to say that not everyone is on here to have fun/for fun!

But hey ho!

I am!

And it's a mega footy duty weekend for me. I moan but I secretly love it lol

Drama is always a laugh. But it does get a bit much.

Rather be a lover than a fighter

Yes it gets rather tiresome. I find when the forum starts getting too bitchy I just avoid it for a few days.

I'm heading to a ladies night on Saturday and a couple of socials over the weekend that will hopefully restore my faith in single guys! Too many timewasters recently

Actually when you think about some of the crap on here with the arguing and also the people who are timewasters, assholes and egits it is actually good to meet a couple of people from fab at a wee social just to chill and have a right good laugh

Agreed. Banter is great. Slating some people have been getting/dishing out isnt.

As much as this is swinging and we are all pretty open minded. We are still people. Treat others how you would expect to be treated yourself

Agreed, except when it comes to ANAL

Honest, Just cause I love it doesn't mean I'm gonna receive it as well, (treating the same way, ouff)

The ones that cause the drama soon find themselves out of favour with the rest of the swinging community.

In the short time I've been around I've came across a few, best give them swerve and let them get on with shooting themselves in the foot.

Got a night away this sat and a visit from a old flame

That is so true !

there have been a few couples and single guys and single girls that I know a lot of people avoid because of their antics on here

so sad and its all their own fault showing their true colours

It's a fact of life that not everyone gets on with everyone else.

Sometimes it's worth reaching for the popcorn though

I totally agree. I have had a few bitchy remarks and knockbacks from members on here..A few comments which were personal and commented on my pictures in a negative hurtful way. It has now made me very wary of getting involved in groups/socials etc sadly

Been on fab for the best part of a decade, as both a genuine couple and a genuine single guy.

As a mature single guy I can feel like a pariah at times but some of the nonsense directed at my ex made me understand why that might be.

There are Eejits everywhere, not just on fab or online.

Don't worry about it Tracey! I think a few people have got the t-shirt too in their Fab wardrobe! I just roll my eyes and let them to it, I have left the playground a long time ago!

Well you are probably right. I was a bit taken aback by it and offended by a few of the personal remarks which came out of the blue! I don't dwell on it much now. I am actually very easy to chat to in my other life!!

I find you get a slapped wrist for the smallest offence: IE offering an opinion and it's all a bit sad and predictable really ....

Hence I'm less likely to offer my opinion.

But that's just my opinion...

This does seem to be the place for instance dislikes turning into slanging matches turning into full blown vendettas that end up in forum carnage. Very sad really.

Then there are those with huge persecution complexes who think it's "all about them" when it truly isn't and opinions are merely being expressed.

Glad I'm so stable...and normal.

(I heard that at the back...You!!!!!)

Been blocked by people I have never chatted to or met! I don't even think or see it as their loss!

I see it as their prerogative. Doesn't change who I am, I still have nothing against them!

It's life, you can't have everyone in your pocket

Don't let a wee slap on the wrist stop you!

Many forget that a 'Forum' is a medium where ideas and various _iews on a particular issue can be exchanged.

Lives and forums would be boring if we were all in agreement!

Saying that, one does not need to be rude to give an opinion!

My opinion anyway
