FabSwingers.com forum: Site Supporter - Should We Be Getting More?

By (user no longer on site) OP

Does any Site Supporter(s) out there think we should be getting more for our money?

Like more options, better security, featured profiles, etc?

Or is everyone happy with what they are already being offered?!

Mines due to run out very soon and am pondering whether or not to renew..

Thoughts please..

I sounds like that you will probably leave the site as I don't think that you will get anything more than your membership already includes, but on the other side of the coin these casual members who are on the site for free should only have a few hours sampler and then it should be pay up or go

No leaving, just wanting to know if people agree if you should be getting more for your buck. As per members being able to be on site without any Supporter, I agree as usually these are the ones who cause crap and set up fake accounts and could be a deterrent for that..

We have let ours run out only due to the fact we're not as active as we were so not really bothered about how many pics and messaging etc.

We think the site is great value for the money and if/when the swing mojo reappears we'll definitely become site supporters again.

This is exactly what I will be doing. X

To be honest a fiver for 2 months is hardly a fortune and to be able to see message threads and who's viewed your profile is worth that in itself.

Ie, better security for members who pay, such as monitoring IP/MAC addresses from devices that create multiple accounts, thus being able to permanently block such people

The membership fee does little to prevent trolls or tourists or fake accounts, in the past on my single profile I had a guy constantly create new accounts to get through my filters & each time he would pay so that clearly wasn't a deterrent. I agree with the ip thing & being able to permanently block that way, but still it won't prevent all abuses & in itself could be a system open to abuse. Having tried other sites when I've been bored I'd have to say this one remains the best for us & we find the site supporter option to be good value for money & we're happy to maintain it X

So you've heard of VPN's, and are aware that anyone with a little knowledge can conceal their identity?

A nice addition to the Forums would obviously be for members, would be a stand alone section for Socials' set out in date order and being removed by the poster when the date has passed

There is nothing wrong with the price except that paying members are subsidising the zero paying ones and if everyone paid it would either improve the site or reduce subscription's

Please don't take this personally, it's not intended as an insult or to cause offence but...

What the hell do you expect for a £5er?

Compare it with say a pint with a bag of chrisps, fish & chips, most car parks or a gallon of fuel to mention just a few things.

A £5er for 2 months seems like a bloody good deal to me.

Reminds me of an old, old joke-

Customer - Landlord, this beers cloudy

Landlord - What do you expect for 2/6d, a fucking thunderstorm? Lol
