After yet another message from someone who does not fit in with out preferences, I am wondering does anyone ever read your profile requirements.

Example we set our age at max 45, yet we are stil getting loads of messages from people mid fiftys.

Are we missing filters ?

You should be able to set your filters so nobody but the ages you're interested in can message you.

Yes you are missing filters.

Make sure to cross out age filters so it reads like this:

Ages: Anyone outside your age preference is blocked

Your preference is for ages 26-36 and only people between those ages can mail you, others will be blocked. Allow any ages to mail

Yes people read our profile. Do you have over 45s blocked, if one of a couple is under they will still be able to contact you.

We get the impression that a lot do but obviously there's those who never do, we ignore and delete those messages almost always and forget about it.

From the experience the wife has with her profile, the answer would be no.

Some people do and some don't.

I only message after reading a profile, that is what is going to attract my interest. Especially if I giggle out loud while reading,

Pics help but you can gage far more from profile text (no matter how long/short it is) that you ever could from a photo.

Although I have sent a cheeky wink after viewing some hot pics.

But if a profile has a part that says if you have read this message please write "Whatever" in the subject box. I don't bother because it really annoys me...

Again we all have our own rules and ways of making this hobby of ours work for us.... As with anything in the swinging world Each to there own.

Very possibly but don't be too hard on the "oldies"? For one thing you too will be that age one day and for many "over 50" they are all too easily consigned to the scrap heap by younger people who might benefit from their experience.

For many "over 50's" theirs is a strange life, not for them do they spend their days trawling the WWW for pix of big cocks or bouncing boobs . . . for they spend their last remaining years watching the sand drain out of egg-timers.

Cut them some slack . . . even better get under the sheets with them and find out about where else they've found buttons to push as yet unknown to the "45's or less"?

We have a buzzword up hidden in our profile and ask people to put the buzzword as the subject in a message if they're interested in contacting us. It's AMAZING how many messages we get everyday with no buzzword. They just get instantly deleted. If someone can't take a couple of minutes to see what we are looking for then they aren't the people for us.

If they haven't read your profile that's a filter in itself, delete block move on.

That's why you block people who call you to task? truth hurt? the fact of the matter is swinging is not a closed community and most decent minded people have no issue with the eclectic mix of people on site,you on the other hand show yourselves to be at best ignorant and at worst blatant hypocrites.

Very few.

If you look on your home page you'll find this

X people viewed your profile today. See who

I think that means X people read the first sentence then moved on to the photos.

Think its right about long photos profiles though but its hard to get everything over in a short sharp shock!

I don't have many filters - because just because I don't want to shag someone - doesn't mean I mind them messaging me - particularly forum friends!

Because I shag so few of those who message me (time constraints and being a fussy cow) I point out that they don't HAVE to read my profile - but I try to make it as amusing and entertaining (and accurate) as possible - to counteract all the shouty, demanding profiles they wade through every day!

When people you're not interested send you a message it's their time they've wasted, not yours, so why worry??

Ps - ironically I get lots of messages from people who've read my profile and giggled a bit - which is lovely!

"Profiles are for single guys who shouldn't be on here anyway and therefore have to really try to get anything on here xx

What an odd thing to say

Why is it? It's a fact, we never have a profile, just cryptic one and we've done ok xx

That single guys shouldn't be here i meant.

Well they shouldn't nor should single women, Swinging is a Couples thing xx"

So why are you looking to meet a single woman then, oh would that be to create a swinging scenario.

Swinging isn't just for couples, if it wasn't for singles couples wouldn't get there mmf or ffm

Is there anyone on fab that you guys don't have a problem with?

I met a single guy on here and that's how we became a couple. How are people supposed to step into 'swinging' (by this I mean the traditional definition of couples rather than singles - although I personally think that swinging has moved on from just couples and become something for anyone to get involved in) unless they start somewhere? I'm curious as to why you think single guys shouldn't be on here.

I've never messaged anyone whose profile I hadn't read through at least once or whose age/sex/status requirements I didn't meet - unless they'd contacted me first.

Apart from not making a nuisance of myself, I see that as meaning I don't waste time tailoring messages to women who are presumably even less likely to reply than all those whose requirements I do fit and who still ignore or delete!

Looks like I'm in the minority in reading profiles...

There is, obviously, a minority of people (couples and singles) who don't read profiles; they just look at the pics, press wink and send a "hi, how are you" type message - these people are called "optimists".

There are, also, people who send very nice messages tailored to that profile - these people are called "genuinely in with a chance".

Then there are those who refuse to read profiles no matter what, send rude generic messages in the hope that someone, at sometime, will reply - these people are called "dumb bastards, I hope burn in hell for all eternity"

We mostly get messages from the third group, interspersed with messages from the first group, all the while hoping to receive from the second group . We are called "stupidly hopeful"

I was going to try and send a tailored message for a giggle but your profile is unavailable for me to read.

Generic message it is then

"Single people shouldn't be on here "

*Looking for single women*

Maybe, in the vein of a certain person on here, people who disagree with single people being allowed on here shouldn't be allowed to be on here? Or let's go the whole hog and get rid of the self intilted **** (insert your favourite cuss word) so the rest of us can enjoy the site how we damn well please?

PS. This isn't targeted at the OP.

"After yet another message from someone who does not fit in with out preferences, I am wondering does anyone ever read your profile requirements.

Example we set our age at max 45, yet we are stil getting loads of messages from people mid fiftys.

Are we missing filters ?

I don't have many filters - because just because I don't want to shag someone - doesn't mean I mind them messaging me - particularly forum friends!

Because I shag so few of those who message me (time constraints and being a fussy cow) I point out that they don't HAVE to read my profile - but I try to make it as amusing and entertaining (and accurate) as possible - to counteract all the shouty, demanding profiles they wade through every day!

When people you're not interested send you a message it's their time they've wasted, not yours, so why worry??

Ps - ironically I get lots of messages from people who've read my profile and giggled a bit - which is lovely! "
love your attitude to it all, really don't like the attitude block for the sake of blocking ,its so annoying and anti people and shows you for what you are soleless

People don't block for the sake of blocking. They block because they don't want contact

I think they do read mine. 693 profile views today and only 189 messages currently unread in my inbox. Granted I've deleted quite a few but that's still quite an uneven ratio of views to messages.

We find that more often than not, people don't read the profile. The ones that do are much appreciated.

We use profiles as a way to out people. It's easier to scan a profile to see if you're suitable than to spend 2 days messaging to realise you aren't.

Have you blocked single guys from messaging you? If you have it doesn't stop them looking at you

you have advertised for a meet that includes single females on your profile,does it take practice to be a hypocrite or were you born that way?

Because singles are on here for us couples to use & abuse, always have been & always will be xx"

So how does that stupid arrogant comment work for singles who don't meet couples work then

You've set the filter not to receive messages from those without pictures so presumably had I pictures, I could've messaged you
