I only joined on the 03rd of october 2005 but am getting the hang all this posting and pm business. Maybe a little to good. I have been posting and pm ing my little heart out testing the water as it were. I obviously didnt know that as a newbie you have to gain the trust and confidence of the group before being taken in. I thought it was like being in the pub, you join in and your away in no time, not so. I am sorry if some members thought i was out for a "quick shag" or similar but im only here to see what all this "swinging lifestyle " is all about. My mistake was to try and start like a seasoned pro and not as a beginner learning the ropes. Again i appologise to any members that thought i was being to eager. Johnno
You are one in a long line with the same misapprehension, johnno. In some periods we get one every day. It really is a matter of taking it easy and gradually getting to know people here socially first - opportunities to "learn the ropes" about swinging will come.
If/when you settle down in here, you will no doubt be amused by the others who come along with the same misapprehension as you had - imagining that this is a "one-stop shag shop".
Good luck,
Mike.
There speaks a newbie who learns quicly.
Welcome Johnno - hope you find what you are looking for.
What I am sure of now is you will make some good friends!
Have fun, Alex x
I can take a step back now and look at first attempts at posting and cringe. God was i that tactless. I thank you for being so understanding, and yes i can see myself giving the over eager newbie a ear bashing.
With only joining 2 days ago ill think ill stick to newbie empathy, I must admit it has been nice to have good converstion with other members now that ive got over my newbie newbie now now now now mode.
ello we havent met, listen.......................im still not accepted 100% but if u smile alot dont rgue and dont piss n e mods off then maybe just maybe youll be invited to a munch
goodluck

I must admit the thought of my first encounter should it happen does fill me with buterflies in the tummy. We will have to cross that bridge if it ever arrives.
me n colin were erm........crappin ourselves but the people from here are proper shit hot, they are lovely!!!
promise!!!!!
well except sarge

I have to be carefull being a newbie not to ask to many questions for fear of being classed as over eager. What was it like the first time, what did you say when you first knocked on the door. I have no idea of what to expect so any help is greatly recieved.
erm..........................you say........................i dunno depends on your personality............
if you never ask questions then youll never know!!!
just be random!!!!
talk to everybody n everybody like me!!!!

i was being to eager.
classed as over eager.
Johnno watch out for Eagerslut :jagsatwork:
well blinkin heck, I would appear that its not just me who has dived in at the deep end and has been dragged out with a slapped arse. I think that as swingin is such a new thing to reach the public it has to be controlled in a strick fashion. I hold my hands up at being at fault, to much to soon is a bad thing for all concerned. This is a completely different way of life and therefore needs to be handled differently. This will sound so arse lickingly bad but well done for getting this site running so well. Johnno, fresh from the pub after ten pints.
wow wow wow, im am not wanting to step on anyones shoes here. Im just a plain old str8 bloke just trying to understand and join in the swingin lifestyle. Im only three days old in this club, a mere baby. You need not worry about me Mr eager Slut.
johnno, i know i havent replied to one of your posts or pms but there really was no need to send me another pm just now apologising again.
its good advice to post regularly and to get yourself known, but there is no need to send me a daily diary pm really.
i know its your third day, i know you think its going better and i know your posting regularly on the forum....because im reading the same forum as you.....there is no need to pm and tell me
And heres me thinking i was being polite and considerate. I felt that after day one i should at least set things straight. Only a jesture of friendship and trust. Not to worry.
Well ill make you a deal, Ill stop telling you everytime i have a good/bad day if you tell me when im making a bad post. Deal.
A lesson for all newbies, Ive just had my first thread blocked. I thought starting a new thread on a new day was a good adea, however, it was in relation to another thread still running. MISTAKE
Keep to the thread,
hey,i have a thread locked already,on 1st day :violin:
my thinks i should do abit of reading before jumping in
