Just to let you know, I got your email
You replied to my ad and guess what, 600 others did as well.
I spent a couple of hours reading as many as I could but gave up.
Pictures of cocks, abuse, disgusting suggestions, you name it I read it.
I'm just a normal lady who wants a sexual relationship but no way would
I ever entertain anyone from that site. If there are any normal people from
that site do you realise that there are a lot of creeps replying along with you.
I suppose that type of site attracts every tom dick and harry and for a lady
that's dangerous. If you are not getting many replies, you can understand why.
I'm still advertising but not there.
Because so many clearly did not read my advert, I will tell you this .....
DO NOT BOTHER TO REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE.
I will not be collecting mail from this address any more so for your sake
don't waste your time.
Sorry, that's the way it goes.
Whilst I can see the many benefits of keeping a site like this free, I now also recognise the reasons why many sites choose to charge (even a nominal amount) for people who wish to access their services. It is yet another line of defence against would-be perverts and abusers. I feel that those who facilitate activities such as those promoted on this site have a social duty of care to protect their users (who might not otherwise be able to advertise and obtain contact names) from potentially harmful situations.
Whilst responsibility rests upon the shoulders of those wishing to place an advert, it would be impossible to report 600 odd email addresses, giving the details of potential abuse contained in each one. It would be MUCH easier to report another registered user, including details of any message especially if messages could only initially be sent using an internal messaging system where personal emails do not need to be given out (such as that used on the adult hub). The XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX is one good example (I think) of a site that puts up several lines of defence as advertisers have the option of blocking messages from non-paying members.
I am not suggesting for one moment that the promoters of this site do not do this. However, I do wonder if keeping the site free is proving counter-productive to many users? What do you think? Am I just rambling? Am I missing something? It would be good to hear the points of view of others - especially regular users and those who have successfully made contact with people.
