hi chaps ,
just running a theory through the old think tank!!
dont you think it would be fab if we could some how rate our meetings!you could rate them 1-10 and have a feedback rating averageof 1-10 , this would sort out all the guff on this site.
IE:i come to you r house , we have great fun but my cock was slightly smaller than i said , this would perhaps be an 8 on the scale , which is damned fine. Or perhaps i agree to meet you and all i want to do is collect pix and keep stalling until you get bored , this would be perhaps a 3 as you never know , i might be then there is the agree to meet 2 or 3 times and never show , hmmmmmmm a big fat 0 on that one.
I know this would never happen , but do you agree that this would be a good thing<
let me know what you think xxxxxxxx
all the best in your search for pleasure!!

thanks for the suggestion... but i feel a glitch in the plan...
if someone met you and you didn't get along... how do you stop people giving vendictive bad reviews???????
what if you couldn't make a meet of a legitimate reason and that person was peeved... how do you stop them giving vendictive reviews????
just a couple of reason as to why it will never happen.....
we have been members of anotha site that offered this service and for the most part it worked well
BUT - eventually the 'older' members wudnt even talk to newer members cos they werent rated
- members wud agree to give each other false ratings - u do one for me i'll do one for u etc
so whilst it seems a good idea the extra work in checking and approving the ratings is v time consuming and troublesome
especially if sumone gives a rating that is not agreed with by the receiver
these probs were kinda overcome on the otha site but it still remains a system open to abuse
No, I think it's too open to abuse.
People could give you 'negative' ratings for all sorts of reasons, including petty ones..or even lies.................and it would be very difficult for you to prove otherwise.
It's the same reason why there is no 'name and shame' system.
Magic I'll rate PK as a 10 I've just asked her I'm a 10 so who do I see about getting it added to my account biggrin
I know of a site where the members are 'established' by the current members, and it seems to work.

I agree.
Too open to abuse.
But . . . . . .
It's good to see it "talked about" for more than 3 minutes.
Does anyone agree with such a system, and does anyone have any constructive ideas as to how it could actually work ?
And what about the people like myself that would absolutely flatly refuse to be "rated" - and would feel that discretion had been compromised if anyone did try to rate me?
I can and do remark on peoples personality when I've met em - but noway would I rate on their sexual prowess confused What's great for me, might be complete rubbish for someone else dunno
Nope, it stinks of segregation and one upmanship
can i rate myself ???????????????????????

But need it be about prowess ?
The only part of any verification system that would appeal to me personally is as a guide to people being what they claim to be - sort of thing.
To be clear, I am actually against verification. Mainly because it is too much open to abuse.
And I'm particularly against any sort of "prowess verification"
I've bought and sold about 40 odd items on Ebay and have a 100% rating
Others have bought and sold 1000's of items and have a 95% or so rating.
Some of these won't sell to zero rated buyers or only if you emaile them first what ever difference that makes
Now who would you trust more confused:
What i'm saying there are no guarantees that a 100% rating will mean a trouble free sale.

Hiya Kinkypete
I understand why you've raised the topic and I do think it's worthy of discussion, but like others have said it would only work if everyone was completely honest. But if everyone was completely honest there'd be no need for it anyway.
Also to use the examples you've given:
let's imagine I arrange to meet a male. We've swapped pics, cammed together, decided we're both up for it and arrange a meet.
We both turn up and he has the most horrendous BO and looks like he hasn't had a wash in over a month :shock:
At this point I tell him it's not going to happen and leave.

What kind of rating to you think I'd get?

And I'm particularly against any sort of "prowess verification"

Any verification system, no matter how is it implemented, how it was mandated and how it was maintained is open to abuse.
I am seen many other sites that have verification type systems in all manner of guises and quite frankly, it grates on me.
One of the beauties of SH for me is the candidness, the openess and more importantly, the friendliness.
Once verification comes in, in no matter what form, that friendliness will diminish. Comparisons will be made, which for me, is never a good thing.
Take the post count for instance. If I had my way, it would be scrapped. Purely because some people view it as a type of verification. The crap that some people have posted in the past for no other reason than to up their post count infuriates me.
Just my opinion.
Rating would be extremely bad. There is another site that uses feedback, if you and another couple have a great time then you leave feedback for each other, you as the controller of your own profile have the ability to delete any negative feedback.
It works up to a point.
i.e.
Swingercouple 1: "you got no feedback?"
Swingercouple 2: "We haven't met anyone yet"
Swingercouple 1: "Well we aint meeting you either coz you got no feedback"....
IMHO unworkable and not required.
Just a few questions to start with...
Would it scare of people who didn’t want a great big list of names (of people they had met) on their profile?
What happens if I think you are a tosser and crap in bed but someone else thinks you are great – who do people believe?
Do people keep going for the people with high ratings making it more and more difficult for newbies to get started?
What if someone had two accounts and just rated their other account?
How would appeals against crap ratings be handled?
What if I decided I really didn’t like you because you had given me the knock back – so I got all my mates to arrange meets with you and then when they didn’t turn up they posted crap ratings against you and said it was you who was the timewaster?
What if the first rating you got was a bad one, just because you didn’t hit it off as well as anticipated – would it not put others off giving you a chance if all they could see was one crappy rating?

Would you really want to, seeing as one of the fields needed to be filled in would be New orUsed? Where's the middle ground?
Perhaps we would have to create new options specifically for SH members like Shop-soiled but in perfect working order / Emotionally Damaged / Needs a re-bore / Watched only once...

i thought it was actualy quite funny really especially after the options you chose to put, but i suppose its nowhere near as bad as telling people to f*ck off like in your other topic because they are members of more than one site :shock:

I see this is a hotbed i have laid out for you today.
some of you are missing the point and thinking far tooooo much about it , i know its open to abuse but how do you think ebay got up n running , ITS ALL ABOUT TRUST PEEPS!!!
and when that trust is broken its up to you on how to deal and respond to that.
and as for the confidention business !!!nothing has been broken...i cant quite see how.
as i said its just a think tank thingy and as for this new cust old cust thingy , well....if you had only had 1 meet and it was good , you would be of a very high average , fantastic for you!!! !If you were full of lies and blackness then its your problem to deal with.
Its very rare for a person to be outright vindictive if you have only had one previous bad meeting , if its two or three then your going to get a bad review , thats just logic. just think about how many truly vindictive people there are , they are mostly just movie stereotypes.
as johnny ball once said , think again!! (and open you mind)ame reason why there is no 'name and shame' system.

No, I didn't. Note the happy smiling emoticons. Like you, if I thought you were a fucking arsehole I would have told you.
Now kiss and make up and show me what's under your kilt. :lol: :wink:
