Hidden Friends Lists

Am I the only person who doesn't like to see hidden friends lists and non-displayed verifications?

As a single female I like to check the friends lists of prospective 'meets' to see if we have friends in common, also to see if they have been verified by people I 'trust'.

I don't care who's had who in the past (this is a swinging site after all) but it at least reassures me that the person I'm looking at is probably genuine.

What do others think?

I have been thinking about this too, perhaps a happy medium is that some are displayed but not all. That way you know there genuine but at the same time is dosn't display to all and sundry your business unless your that way inclinded lol Just my two pennys worth Mrs P xx

We like to check people out too, it reassures us that they are genuine and if we have friends in common in probably means we will get on together.

As for showing ours, we feel it proves who, and what we are, and that we are genuine.

I regularly 'prune' my friends list as I want it to be just that - 'friends', not a list of everyone I've added just so I can see the private pics. For the same reason there are some verifications that I chose not to display as their wording isn't in my comfort zone!!!!

i think it should be up to the individual whether or not to show their verifications on their profile. I myself only show my social ones, cos the other sort to me are private. but thats just my point of view.

People should have a complete freedom to reserve their privacy and hide information if they wish....

Just as we all have the complete freedom to just ignore them and find people who are ready to be open about themselves!

If I see something hidden - I assume that they have something to hide, so don't bother with them, no matter how tempting they may otherwise be...

We used to have ours on display til we saw the option to hide it.we use friends because its a convinient way of showing people our private pics, not everybody that has perved our private pics and vise versa become friends for real, some become social and the others well they are the genuinley fun naughty people who can be found on our verifications

It normally wouldn't bother me,but I trim down my displayed verifications as I don't need all of it displayed to prove the legit tart I am

As for friends list, I've had trouble where some guys decide to get lazy and 'harvest' my contacts for meets. Imagine hearing someone telling your friend "_habs knows me - when can we meet?".

we hide the friends list as theres a guy on here who decided to read our friends list and add them all, along with a pm saying we had told him they were up for fun.

the guy is also a serial offender of emailing private pics of other users in his pms so that got a bit sticky when people started to question us, thankfully the guy has a really bad attitude and theysaw through him.

we dont put up our verifications of meets if they are a basic description of what we did, like a step by step, just to try and stop the saddos who browse the site for a quick wank knowing what and who we do

p&g xx

There are various trains of thought regarding friends lists, me im proud of who i have listed as friends and in ideal world if someone is taking an interest in me and wants the reassurance of lookin up equally open minded free thinking friends listed in my friends list , super.

Works both ways, you have as mentioned fun people eager to meet because not only me but friends listed appeal to them too.

But then you have your "leaches", folks who cant be assed messaging in browse,use your friends list versus verifications and decide "oh they are playing" bingo, as mentioned in other threads, they even pretend in their intro message "ohh hi im good pal of like2see,he mentioned u2" thankfully most cross check.

The best one i ever had was a desperado, who liked my friends list, looked up most recent lady i partied with and not only met her, decided to , not just label her a swing partner, ohh no, why do that when you can call her your sub slave and "any person wishing to play with her must ask insta-masters permission, seriously?"

He's gone on to meet "coincidentaly" more folks on my friends list,eh without her, suddenly she aint such a good idea to him, nice guy,lol

Care to guess how close i am to naming him? lol
