Female profiles that are just "flyers" for club nights

Anyone else feel these "single female" profiles that are effectively just defacto advertising leaflets for club nights undermine the integrity of this site?

And aren't club nights part of swinging? In fact, for some a big part?

There’s a lot of spam posts this morning, I assumed that’s what OP was referring to.

I don’t mind them as they build interest and lots of fabbers don’t enter the forums to find out what’s going on at different venues.

But what I think he means is the actual profile is an advert for a specific night - not just a status update saying you’re attending.

Being so close to JD’s & VA there are a few profiles like this, for which their sole purpose is to advertise the night in question.

Wow, I only meet in clubs so I'm always asking who's going or if anyone wants to meet there, am I not allowed to do that?

As for the couple who made vile comments about women at club nights, really? You think it's OK to say shit like that about people? I'm a fat single mum that goes to club nights so kindly take your judgemental attitude and shove it where the sun doesn't shine.

These forums have been vile this week, people with horrible attitudes being dicks.

I don't have a problem with promoter/host profiles either.

Or messages (not automated BTW, and no I'm not a promoter or a host) advertising events.

I do this before I go to a club; helps break the ice with people before we get there. I'm certainly not spamming.

There's a big difference between those saying "hey I'm off to club anyone else going?" And someone pushing a club - if you look at their verifications you'll be able to spot them.

Yup.

If you think people who go to clubs are beneath you, then don't go to clubs. "

But clubs and party organisers are allowed profiles to promote events and the clubs. How else would they advertise, not everyone uses the forums.

This is an online hub for the swinging community. Which includes clubs, parties, and those who host them.

You could block the profiles if they bother you that much. But they belong here.

I work in a club, I go as a guest, I always have on my status what's upcoming & who's going. Spammer? Maybe to you but to those who don't use the forums it's handy to know what's on.

We could add whiney forum posts to that tho, there's an awful lot of those lately

I wasn't contesting this; just adding to the thread that I'd quoted, to agree that not everyone who mentions a club is a club organiser.

Op you have proven that people will moan about anything.

Personally I think it`s great that we are kept informed of what`s going on in the club scene by individuals who put a great deal of effort in to promoting these events.

You need to get a life. This is a great site and so what if a single woman promotes a swinging activity. We are all grown ups and can form our own likes and dislikes. Being a single guy think you have narrowed the chances of a meet which are already not in your favour. Just enjoy what is here. Most of us do.

It was an open question more than a moan per se, to stimulate debate....the idea of a forum no?

FWIW I think that single female profiles that are dedicated wholly and exclusively to advertising club events they host/run/manage are spam and don't belong within a single female profile, it's the kind of fakery that erodes confidence in the integrity of the site, especially when those concerned state they are part of a couple and therefore it's manifestly obvious this single profile has been set up to advertise and for no other purpose.

All about opinions innit...

Spot on. I'm sick of wading through a blah blah list of a supposedly single woman profile only to find that they only meet with a FB/bf/husband etc

If a woman is a club promoter and doesn't do it with a man, she's a single woman.

I’m going to a club night tonight.

The whole night including driving there , entry and drinks and staying the night in a hotel is a couple hundred quid

Of course I’m going to put up a status to see who’s going. I am going to a swinging event and I would like to swing so I’m advertising for ME and if the club gets a free advert good stuff

No I'm not.

Swinging clubs advertise on Fab. Some organisers are women who do it without a man involved.

This is the way Fab profiles are organised, there's no separate "club" option.

These profiles come with different inbox problems to regular profiles.

Separate profiles is the most efficient way to do it. If you don't like it, block them.

So you've agreed in essence that the site should be providing some facility for them to advertise this in the proper way which is what I was saying, my beef isn't with the indviduals doing this per se but with the site condoning it.

For the avoidance of doubt imo single female profiles should not be used exclusively by that person to advertise their wares as a host/manager of club events.....not sure what's controversial about that

The only thing that annoys us is we live 200 plus miles away from most clubs. Messages promoting these events are pointless to us we arent suddenly going to drive 200 miles the next day for an event.

No, I don't like people putting other people down to try and make a point. It's got fuck all to do with that person's opinion, it's the way they made derogatory comments to put across their opinion.
