So basically what your saying is if you hold a couple account you can have third partie's in your pics because you cannot be sure who the account holder is...
But if you have a single account you cannot have any other people in your pics as they are definately not the account holder????
One rule for one and one for another!
That is unfair.
As someone .. ( I think Grotmeister) said in an earlier post... One of the reasons I added the pics in the firstplace was because I thought it would be a good advert for the website.. I have been a member on here long enough, and know enough other members for them to know I am genuine. I consider a lot of them to be freinds now.. Instead I am advised to let admin know of any other pics that break AUP rulings so they can be given a warning themselves..In other words grass them up!
All along from now on I have to tread on eggshells in the knowledge I will be banned if I upset them again..
I think the photographs that are taken off the internet and added into the gallery stand out like a sore thumb... (and yes they are quite easy to come across if you browse the gallery)
A few very sensible points have been brought up in this thread including being able to send consent from both parties if they want a pic to be used..
Dawnie,,
I only opened the poll yesterday at lunchtime so I think 28 votes on the matter is quite good.. particulary when probably half of the votes will have been made by moderators. I will be metioning this thread in chatrooms in the coming weeks to friends so the true reflection of how people feel will be there for all to see then
I view a couples account and I see lots of photos of a male appearing with different females, which two own this account?
shouldnt they be asking the profile holder instead of reporting,this i swing site we expect to see pics of third parties of profile for evidence and pics has at times been used as a revenge tatic by some forumist who lost arguments,it would be pointless to ban third party pics but i suggest an email should be provided for every third party persons on profile so the mods can verify
Phuckers, I don't think any of the mods would actively seek revenge on anyone by doing as you suggest. One thing is that it would have to ba something really crapola to want revenge another is that life is too short.
Personally I wouldn't report a photo unless I knew it or suspected it to be wrong/bad/ not right. I may know a photo may be of someone other than the person in the photo's partner or the such by maybe something such as an obvious mark, a tattoo or scar but unless I had a reasons other than those i'd not say anything, It does smack of being a grass in some sense I feel. But hey I stress if I was concerned I would and have reported a photo.
I have to say...
Take 5 minutes to browse throught the single female section of the gallery....
no third parties in the pics???
hmmm
I don't really feel I can comment really as not having any photos on here at all.
But I have read all the comments made and most feel that to have a third party in their photos doesn’t seem to be a problem.
I would have a problem if someone used pictures of me as a way to advertise their sexual exploits on here, as most have discretion paramount in their profiles. I feel if third parties wanted photos of themselves they could put their own pictures up on their own profiles.
There are other ways that pictures can be shown to a select few you wish to show. I don’t think they need to be on here for all and sundry to see.
Some have said that third parties could give their consent to Admin for the use of their pictures to be used in another person’s profile.
I really could not see and correct me if I am wrong how Mods or Admin could know that the right people have given their consent. Which leaves things open for abuse in my personal opinion.
I for one would like to be protected by sh rules and know I am safe getting on with my fun in the knowledge that pictures I or third parties have made together are not for all to see.
I do know there are a lot of pictures of third fourth and fifth parties on here and I always wonder if all the people in the pictures know the pictures are here.
The same as I wouldn’t expect to see other people in what is show as a single profile, be it single men or women profiles.
I know it is a swinging site and we are all adults but I use this site for the fact that it is run in a way I feel comfortable and protected.
Mal,
Surely the whole point of a forum is to have a construtive arguement with a view to making appropriate changes so more people are happy????
The reason I started this thread was to find out what other members think on the matter as well as the SH team
All I get in my mailbox is regurgitated copied and pasted shit of admin similar to that guff you just posted above in the box. If you read my posts right through here my arguement is that.. ( for the feckin 10th time) Their is no consistancy...
I have not posted any distinguisable body parts on my pics.. no faces etc..
It's not my job to change SH policy.. It's admin and mods..
HENCE THE POLL!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know enough members on here think the same so I thought a poll may be a good idea to find out what the general members think and not just the mods.
whats your problem?
Must say ive usually decided wether i want to fuck whom ever before i actually look at the pics and very rarely does that change after seeing pics. If i want to fuck you it isnt because of the way you look, thats when i meet as a single though
Think at some point we all have had pics deleted, it happens, shit happens, thats life
