The post was intended as an explanation DeeCee - not as a flame. I leave that sort of thing to others !!
Quote by DeeCee
well, that and the age old system of "flame the newbie" and " hijack the thread".
It might have been "done to death" or be "un-newsworthy" to some.... but clearly Lrgck9 isn't in "the loop".......How would he be aware of this?
In all fairness, what sort of welcome was this to a new forumite?????? No wonder he thinks what he thinks.
grrrrrrrrrr
mad

........... and all it took for me was a quick search under the words "feedback" and "varification" and you see how many time the same question has been asked in just the last 6 months.......
whenever I go on any new forum, If i go thru the for example last 10 pages just to see what has been asked.....
people who have been there will be bored of the same questions....
actually this board is nowhere near as brutal as others I go on.... and when it comes to participating in "hijacks" you are not really "whiter that white" now are you? wink
he got given examples of why it wouldn't work and why it isn't here...... or did you miss those?

Ok this one meet i had i fell out with them beforehand because i never actually met they left me bad feedback

MY LIFE GOT IN THE WAY OF MY SWINGING SO NOW IM A TIMEWASTER!!!!!! thats what happens with feedback!

Actually, I think this is a really great idea!!!
Now Lrgck9, for instance, he (is it a "he"? lemme go check profile, back in a bit - ahh yes) is a total timewaster!!! Weed him out, like a nettle! He didn't show up when he was supposed to, he is sooooo rubbish in bedroom, I would say, "stay away, ladies" he's not genuine at all!!!
Needless to say, the above is totally made up, I have never made arrangements with, or been let down by, Lrgck9.
But you see my point.

I think we already have an unoffical feedback system in place on this site. I have friends , you all have friends and like it or not we all gossip to varying degrees I would say unless the experience has bin horrifically bad and i'm not talkin about ppl having to cancel , or finding that ya didnt really fancy the pants of one another after meeting most ppl wouldnt be derogitory about others anyway so i dont think there would be any advantages to having an official system .

This was the last time it was seriously debated on this site, views on this subject may have changed, as live evolves and moves on.

I know the people you ran over on that bus of yours aren't going to get an apology from you.....but people did answer his question...
To put it simply, there will never be a verification/ feedback system on this site for the reasons already outlined.

Sorry Fire. I wasn't really pm'ing him for a fuck. But I got carried away in the moment and he does have such lovely blue eyes.
He was definately worth 7/10 tho' :twisted:

Ooh Nola I didn't see this post you quoted :shock: and I can categorically say that at NO point no matter who I am talking to do I ever gossip about anyone else on this site and I would be mortified if I thought anyone else did about me confused
I do have friends on here and yes I like talking to them, but think that on a site like this discretion needs to be an extremely high priority.

:thumbup: Firelizard. Exactly.
my serious head.
I have told 2 different people on two different occasions.
once because the man that was chatting her up told me repeatedly that he always used condoms and wouldn't even think of fucking without one.
He visited my house and fucked me doggy style without one. I knew the person, that he was chatting up, very well. I knew that she met very rarely and always insisted on using condoms. I thought I would save her the three month wait for results that I endured. :thumbup:
The other time because someone used my name as reference for their 'genuineness'. I had never met them and had only spoken to them on the phone. I told the couple that as I didn't appreciate his using my name. confused
otherwise I tell no-one .. apart from wor lass who likes detailed descriptions. rolleyes
Quote by Cherrytree
hi all i thinck it would be a good idea for a place to leave feedback about people on swinging heaven that way other people would be able to weed out the time wasters from the genuine doggers or swinging couples, also a place where people who have met up with others can verifiey them being genuine. be nice to hear your comments on this subject guys & girls

Actually, I think this is a really great idea!!!
Now Lrgck9, for instance, he (is it a "he"? lemme go check profile, back in a bit - ahh yes) is a total timewaster!!! Weed him out, like a nettle! He didn't show up when he was supposed to, he is sooooo rubbish in bedroom, I would say, "stay away, ladies" he's not genuine at all!!!
Needless to say, the above is totally made up, I have never made arrangements with, or been let down by, Lrgck9.
But you see my point.
The way it works on other sites is that you cannot leave anything bad or negative, a bit like E Bay now.
I know that it does not let others know someone is a timewaster but...it does let people know about the ones who do turn up, and are not timewasters. You could have a member with say 5 positives, at least you know they are genuine.
There are positives and negatives but I think the positives of having a feedback system outweigh the negatives, but it ain't going to happen on this site anyways. cool
Quote by Lrgck9
well judging from the replys i think we can clearly see who the time wasters are & who the genuine people are, so sad that the majority fit into the time wasters catagory.

Hun, I've been a member on here a long time, and I've come across more fakes, time-wasters and fantasists than you could ever imagine.
Surely you can see just how open to abuse the feedback system would be? It won't work.........ever.
The only decent feedback is that produced by Jimi Hendrix or Ted Nugent rolleyes
Verifying is an accepted fact on other sites. Its part of the site and people are happy to use it.
Here, because of the legacy of the originators, its not used.
I think its a characteristic of this site. However some of the members here will use other sites where verifying is allowed. So its just a question of having to abide by some of the house rules. Albeit temporarily when here.
Its a quaint notion that by not verifying people they have some kind of immunity. Its almost redundant as they'll soon get themselves into deep water. And anyway word gets about through the bush telegraph about various people, who's hot who's not etc.
I just don't think I can do the non V argument here and switch to another site and get verified. Its inconsistent, But I expect there are those who play both ends of the game with convincing realism.
Feedback would be good as people can see if your genuine, we have been on this site a year & have never met anyone but on LS we have meet 12 couples this year alone. Do people really met on here?

Yes, people do meet and no, feedback doesn't help you to tell if anyone is genuine. Meeting people does.

Stick to LS then - I couldn't handle any more meets than I get on here in any case. I think it is a question of what you invest as to what you get. If it is too easy then whatch out fer the quality!! :shock:

Yes. redface People meet quite a lot on here. But, as mentioned earlier in this thread, most prefer to keep it quiet.
It's less about feedback and more about discretion.

Yes, people do meet and no, feedback doesn't help you to tell if anyone is genuine. Meeting people does.

To say feedback doesn't help to tell you if anyone is genuine is quite simply incorrect. Yes there are problems with unmonitored feedback and with those who misuse feedback systems. However the principle of feedback is valid and some sites have systems that work reasonably well if not perfectly.
'No negative' feedback systems come closest to being useful IMO. While a lack of feedback is open to misinterpretation, if someone has significant positive feedback it can help in making a decision. If that includes feedback from someone you know and who's judgement you trust it is even more helpful.
Of course it can never be as good as meeting people, but as one part of the sensible information gathering process it can be and often has been helpful in my experience.

:thumbup: double exactly. There are way to many people (and I know this for a fact) who discuss who they've been with and what they've done, this and that. Absolutely disgusting, these are peoples feelings they're playing with evil

The thing is Lrgck9 one person's timewaster is another person's successful meet. Feedback of the kind you seem to want, would only tell us what that one person thinks about another individual, but wouldn't tell me whether I'd get on with that person or not. Therefore it would be of no help whatsoever. Instead it would simply be a vehicle to rant, and slag other people off. Again serving no purpose.
It seems to me there are 'timewasters' in the vanilla world as well, and I don't remember seeing a name and shame notice board anywhere. Instead one simply takes it on the chin and moves on. That's life.

Well, it's correct for us to say that we've managed so far on this site without any kind of feedback or verification system (that's 'us' as in MrFB and me).
If there's no system, it can't be misused or abused. Then you only have meeting people and your instincts to guide you. Works for us.
would not feedback be telling you as much about the person posting the comments, as the person they are commenting on?
If you knew niether of the people/couples/groups involved, it wouldn't really relate to yourself and your own personal preferances, would it?

For me, a positive recommendation would only mean anything if it was left by someone I knew and trusted.
Those I know and trust tend to be more discrete.
Positive feedback is open to abuse too, in a "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" kind of manner.
