Anyone out there give me some advise?

22 Sep 2004

Hi everyone
My name is Mark and I'm new to this scene. I was wondering if anyone can give me some advise on Photo ads.
I've sent a few replies over the last two weeks to women in the "Women seeking Men" section. Yes, I'm another single male and the odds are stacked up against me (I did read Heather and Rogers excellent advise, but those that don't try, don't get) I have noticed that some reply via the Swinging Heaven server and others using say If I send a reply via I often get a mail similar to the photo advert and to reply to this, you must pay money to . Now, I'm not tight but I think adult contact is not for others profit so at the moment I'm not going to register. What I would like to know is;
1. When I get a reply via is it initiated by the person or is it automated?
2. Why do people use this type of contact page when Swinging Heaven offer it free?
3. Is it that post it in the photo ads section or do the people?
I must admit that if it turns out that replies are automated, I've not had a single genuine one sad

Many thanks
Mark

Individuals post in the ads. cannot set up automatic ads. If ever you get automatic responses asking for a fee or any sort of payment or a premium number to respond to, tell us, the Mods. We will take action against the advertiser, likely banning them. Wherever possible, an ad number of email address would certainly help, as would a copy of the email you receive. We like them even less than you and will take action against them where we can. Even if you don't have any evidence, but a gut feeling, let us know. It helps build a picture of them, as others might be telling us the same thing.
Hope that helps.

I'm not sure how works with single adds but my advice would be for you to keep answering adds on here post your own add chat to people in the chat room and I'm sure something will come up. If your adventurous go to a club find theses in the clubs and parties section and if you post enough you could come along to a munch and have fun with all of us there
Good luck

lots of experts here with opinons that you will hear and they will tell you what to do , theres a trend of posting silly little quips to everyones original post so basically reply at least 5 times to every post as long as they are witty non subject related then you will both fit in fine !! cool

I think what mark might actually be referring to is that certain ads chose to hide the address.....and to reply you have to be a registered user. Its no big deal mark and to register is free.....easy to do..unless ofcause you are ashamed or have something to hide !!!!

Slightly off topic: "advice" is spelt with an a C. The noun is "advice" and the verb is "advise". It's the same with "practice"... the noun takes a C and the verb takes an S.
Sorry if this comes across as rude. Just trying to help.

Thanks for the replies.
Mal - I don't think there is any problem with . It is just anoher way of advertising but like all commercial organisations, they want to make a profit. I'll certainly will inform you of any wrong doings when I come across them during my search. I think is used as it does offer more automation to email replies allowing pictures to be seen and sending general replies. It is understandable as the sheer volume a woman receives can be difficult to handle. Many thanks.
Dean - I have registered and do send mails using the singingheaven server. Some of the other reply addresses are not done that way and tends to be a favorite. Just wondered how that type of contact works?
Greg - what can I say Thanks for the advice. I too come from London. Walthamstow to be precise and "gramma woz neva me strong point" Nice one. smile

Thanks for the advice everyone. Munchies sound fun
