Has anyone else ???

12 Jul 2003

We was wondering if any new or old members have been into this groups chatroom : :?:
And if so did you find as a new person people tended to ignore you as we have been in there several times and tried to talk to others and all they do is ignore you and dont answer anything you have to say as they are to busy chatting to what it seems is a main core of regular users and dont wish to chat to some of the new people who enter :!: :!: :!:
Come on tell us ifyou have had these experiences :!: :!:

As someone who has only recently joined and tried the chatroom, I have to disagree with you (Sorry, lol)
Obviously there are going to be regulars in the room, who know each other and they will chat as friends. However, I have been made to feel very welcome, whenever I've gone in. (And I'm one of the lepers, otherwise known as single blokes, lol lol)
The only advice I can offer, is to make sure you sign in using your profile name (so people will know who you are) and throw yourself into the chat, lol.
Hope you have fun, next time you go in and if you see me, say HI! Coz I'll probably be asleep, scratching me bum, picking me nose, greasing the cat's boils or something equally exciting, lol lol lol

I have to agree with Henry too. As an Op in the chatroom I try to greet everyone who enters the room with a name. Asl's will normally get ignored by those present in the chatroom. those who come in as a guest will normally find it hard to get involved in conversations as it looks as if they have something to hide.
Next time you come in K&W. just jump on in to the conversations, most people in there are pretty friendly and only bite when asked to do so.

I have to disagree with both of you as we have been in as K_W several times and have tried to talk to people and have had nothing but being ignored and at one stage had been verbally abused by 1 person in there as K went in and a guest whispered her asking for a meet and when she politely said we like to get to know people b4 any type of meeting all she got in return was ""F*CK YOU THEN B*TCH ..and GO F*CK YOURSELF THEN"" and since then have been unsure wether to go in or not as that is not the behaviour we wish to receive from other people as we believe that everyone has the right to go about things the way they wish to

As one of Enchantress' fellow OPs i also make a point of greeting everyone with a name, and i know most of the regulars do too. Unless im in private of course.
As for the insulting behaviour, this will not be tolerated by myself or any of the other OPs and if reported will result in the removal of the individuals concerned.
On a personal note sending private messages without asking permission is one of my bugbears so please please guys ( and it is mainly guys) pack it in!!!
Im sure i speak for all of the regulars when i say i hope to see you guys again soon.

hi.......it does seem to me that you have had an unusually bad experience in the chat room......as one of the regulars, I feel disappointed to here you have recieved such a bad welcome......I also try to welcome each new person/couple as they enter, so give us all another chance.....as a couple we have had much success at meeting new people via the chatroom and you may find you will find new friends and contacts this way............anyway, good luck.....hope to welcome you both back soon

yes somedays it really does appear as if the waltons have taken over the chatroom.

We always go into the chatrooms with our members name as then people will know it is us !!!
I was primary going in but 1 night my wife went in and had all the abuse thrown at her (what i wrote wasnt the only abuse she had) because of the way we go about meeting people
which is
We only meet people we have got to know well as when we first started this lifestyle online we used to meet alot of people we had just chatted to online and have met some real nasty people even to the stage one tried to split us up ..so now we like to get to know someone and if we feel they are ok and we will all have fun then we arrange a meeting
Since we have had the incedent in the chatroom we have not been back as having it so any guest etc can enter as whom they choose and throw abuse at the females they wish is NOT what we seek as im sure most are here to find friendship then fun and not get a stream of abuse from a few who get their kicks from doing so
So for the time being we will try to get to know people through the message boards but at the presant time have been only able to spend limited time on the pc but plan to take more of an active part soon

Going to run the picture through paint shop pro again when we get time to get the pixels down then add it so should be ok but been a bit busy wit other things to do it at the moment as we have been busy sorting out our albums of pictures we have got and writing them onto disc for future enjoyment
It takes alot of time sorting out around 200+ pictures from 1 album to different albums depending on the location etc wink

We might try the chatroom again over the weekend when there is better chance that there will be less guests in and more genuine people as we poped in today and there was 4 guests and 3 people with names lol
Must say the people with names seemed ok and never got any backchat from all the guests when they whispered ( and didnt they whisper lol) and we politly said that we dont chat with guests and only chat to genuine people who have the decency to create a name etc as if they are hiding themselves due to dont wish others to know what they are up to we not the type of people for them as we are a couple who likes to take pictures of our meetings and not seeking people who dont wish to be in shot etc :wink:
