A compliment?

I've now had it pointed out to me that three different single guys have taken my profile wording and copied it word for word.............one friend even reported it to admin but to no avail (obviously I understand that it would be hard to prove who worded it first). So should I take it as a compliment and forget about it? or should I take it further? I have mailed the offenders but my mail for some reason gets deleted!! At least they have all used their own pics not mine!!

I just made this up all by myself

Man in hertfordshire, South East, UK

Thank you for taking a peek!!

Thought I should update my profile as I've now been on FAB for nearly 4 years and enjoyed every minute, I've met some wonderful people and from my humble novice beginnings now consider myself to be well and truly entrenched in the swinging scene.

I know there are a number of single men on the site that for one reason or another are timewasting idiots that get a kick out of arranging meets with no intention of turning up, this gives us genuine guys a bad name, I am very genuine(see verifications) and will allways turn up when invited.

I enjoy the whole aspect of the swinging scene from the excitement of the initial meet, to the passionate kissing and sensual massage, extended foreplay both giving and receiving (especially giving)and great sex!!!.

I'm not looking at the moment for a full on relationship, but I'm also not interested in collecting notches for the bedpost.

I like to get to know someone to make sure there is some kind of spark and if we click like to get together as soon as possible, I also enjoy the occasional last minute meet, prefer to meet during the evening, but can also meet during the day if required!!!!. I will allways reply to messages sent as quickly as I can, but due to work commitments I'm unable to be online 24/7 so a reply may take a day or two.

I am more that happy to show a face/body pic, please send a message or even a wink to let me know you are interested, I will forward pics with a message by return!!!

Look forward to hearing from you soon.

I'd take it as a compliment.

When I first joined FAB, I recommended it to a gent I knew through another site.

He copied my profile word for word, except to change where necessary so that it reads like a male profile.

He even kept the bit about a very personal issue I had at the time, and when I challenged him about it, he deleted that part from his profile and kept the rest.

I found it very creepy, and when I told him I had no intention of meeting him, he replied it must have been something to do with his profile.

Creep!

If it helps....... Copying your profile narrative displays a form of dibility (Laziness).

With any luck, they take the approach to sex and, although they may get meets, getting a good veri off the back of it might be somewhat 'harder'...

Well, try telling yourself that...

And, yes, you do have an excellent profile. Well written, good grammar and spelling etc etc etc.. I shall no doubt have to restrain Perky to ensure she does not plague you with 'PM's.....

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

I hope they are able to keep up the act in their messages and when it gets to the phone call! I doubt it though. No one can imitate you... if they can I want to see all of you at the same time!

Well at least they did'nt take your pics as well.

I was on a well know other site,the mother took not only my profile but my pics as well, same as you, only found out when some friends on there gave me the heads up,admin there did bugger all for weeks, even after numerous phone calls and me sending in a few more pics to prove it was my profile.

Hence not a member of the site no more and lost contact with a few good friends.

I can see this becoming the de facto standard ...

Why don't you just block single guys from looking at it ?

Seems simple enough ?!

if we were browsing two good profiles that had the same wording we'd think one person has written a good profile and someone else is a plagiarising bastard. But which one would we mail if we were interested? well we can't tell which is which so sadly probably neither. I don't know how many people would take the same attitude but possibly,just possibly someone copying your profile may cost you meets

Thanks for all the replies (well most of them!!!) the good news is the fella that copied my profile recently, had the courtesy to message and apologise.
