Is it not about time that SH admin started to delete old profiles that have not been used for 90 days, they clearly have no intention of using the site properly and probably only registered 1 evening when they were bored. Or maybe they thought it guaranteed sex in 30 mins. They are a waste of time. You see a profile that contains no picture, no details and the user has not logged in for 90 days. Its clearly a timewaster. Delete them!
Yup that's the crux of it, we know that some people don,t make any effort with profiles, pictures, mails or even trying to get a meet, but that is thier perogative, we simply see that as not worth our time fretting over and move on to those that do choose to give the information we seek in order to decide if we want to meet or not.
Many think our profile is too much, that is thier opinion and we respect that, respect has to be the first rule of the swinging scene.
As to why they choose thier way, I have to admit that it is puzzling, personally we believe that the more information on your profile the more chance of finding compatible partners, the less chance of wasting peoples time and the more fun the site is, a picture paints a thousand words but yes up to date pictures are important to us, we would hate to mislead anyone with 10 year old pictures.
That said we know people who do use pictures that are 10 years old but in all fairness the pictures are still a fair reflection of how they are now, perhaps a few more frown lines, sometimes they look better today than they did now, so we don't care too much if photos are old providing they are that true reflection of how the people look.
We see our profile as our shop window, if people like what they see and read in it they can quickly decide to move on to the next window or come inside to find out more, we try to instill a little of our personalities into it whilst making it clear what we are looking for and what we have to offer.
I have a blank profile.
That way I don't appear in random search results from people who I don't know. It used to have some details in it, and I received frequent 'chancer' messages from people who have abosolutely nothing in common with me. They stopped when I cleared my profile.
Perfect !!
On the plus side, I'm in chat pretty much every day. I've made the occasional post on the forums, and have been to countless socials, munches and club meets all over the country. So there are actually other ways of getting to know people.
