Hi All,
Is is just me or is the search on SH almost useless.
I used to find it easy to search this site, but now it seems impossible to find the following:
Soft swing couple
With Pics
Into video taking
Near London
Do other people have this problem or is it just me??
Thanks

its annoyin u cant do ad searchs anymore and have to rely on people sortin their profile out properly, so yeah, i know what you mean
Just a thought, but if people have not put anything in their profile, it could mean that they dont want people they dont know to contact them.
I know a lot of people have put in false postcodes, ages, details etc etc etc just so that they wont get all the unsolicited messages.
The Admin have said they are looking at the search function for the photo ads, so now that the christmas break is out of the way, I am sure it will on their 'To Do' list.

Ahhah,
Well at least somethings in the works. I think the new SH approach is better than the old one.
Maybe we are seeing how many timewasters there really are on this site?
Cheers

You are definately in the minority if you prefer the new site. It has become a quick shag site, a sex site and is no longer much to do with Swinging. People cant talk anymore, most people just want instant results, but are not prefered to put in the effort.
No, you are definately in the minority if you prefer it this way! :cry:

Maybe it's how we use the site.
We get to know people through the adverts (hence my point about the search), then follow up with emails, Webcam etc befeor meeting.
After about 12 months, we have our A-list.
We use the forum for advice and Webcam.
Have we missed something.

yes and no..... a lot of use like to get to know people a bit better than a couple of lines in an ad.....and then we have a much better idea of who were are playing with,
you could call it mental stimualtion as well as the purely physical of the photo ad's....
a lot of people purely used the ads.. but then you missed out on all the socials and the parties and the munches.....
nothing wrong with that.... but there was/is a huge amount you are missing out on...
for example...150 likeminded people on the lash together on saturday night!!!

It depends how you look at it - I spend time most weeks with over 100 like minded people - but it's not at a munch.
People who use the photo ads successfully could say that you are missing out on meeting people who don’t go to munches – which is by the way more than 150 people in total.
Each to their own as long as they have the right attitude and understand respect for others.

A lot of people seem to dislike this site being used as a "quick shag site". Personally, I think it's a good thing! I know the "community" aspect of this site is really good, and is what makes it special, but the site is big enough to accommodate both.

But you imply here that people don't bother getting to know a person if they make contact through photo ads
Munches - Photo ads - all a means to an end. Even if that is just a sociable night out with like minded new friends.
The point I was making prior was - you think people are missing out by not going to munches - because you like going to munches. Other people may feel you are missing out - by not doing other things.
Arranging a shag in 10 minutes after reading two lines and seeing a cock shot is not the only alternative.

Good point, a lot of people do use the photo ads and do use them successfully but why do they come into the forums and moan! If they dont like the forums, why come in here, why not stay in the Photo Ads Section?
Quote by PoloLady

So, as I said above, why are they moaning that some people do actually want to talk before jumping into bed with someone? Why should people complete their Profiles just to be mithered by people who dont normally use the forums? You have said yourself PoloLady that you have messages from guys saying 'loved your ad' and you dont have an ad, so even if people do fill in their profiles correctly, half the plonkers cant even be bothered to read them! I think Respect works both ways, but a fairly high percentage of the non-regular forum users seem to think that it is only 'Respect' for their likes, not for the likes of others

Yes a lot of us do dislike this place (the forums) becoming a quick shag site, a lot of us are into swinging and not into quick shags (I did say a lot of us, but not all). If you read the definition of Swinging (takes from the Information section on this site) it states the following:
2 entries found for the word swinging
swing(sw ng) v. swung,
v. swung, (sw ng) swing·ing, swings
v. intr.
1. To move back and forth suspended or as if suspended from above.
2. Recreational sex between consenting adults.
Ah, now that is convenient, as it saves us a great deal of time of explaining what we feel swinging really is.
Yes, you've guessed it, we're going with definition 2. Swinging isn't simply 'Wife Swapping', nor is it quite as simple as 'Recreational sex between consenting adults' - even though we prefer the latter definition. No, it's more a state of mind. It's about being honest, open-minded, and expressing yourself freely. It's about enjoying sex with other people while not endangering pre-existing relationships. It's about enjoying sexually liberated fun no matter whether you're a single person or a couple or a triple or...
Perhaps some of us are afraid that the site is moving away from what the definition of swinging is actually about and it is becoming a Sex Site, where you pay your £50 and you get a shag!!!

I honestly don't think it is a high percentage. If it was we would be flooded.
It does bug the shit out of me that people come and moan when the ads don't work - tough shit - that's life. But I know a lot of people who do use them successfully and you would never know they were here on the site.
I don't beleive I was making a point that people should fill in their profile with all of the details - I don't and until recently I ticked that I was a single guy.
There have always been twats, chancers, tourist, quickie-one-hit-wonders floating around. OK there are a few more of them now - but I am hoping it will settle again.

It wasnt you PoloLady saying that people should fill in their profiles, so apologies if it came accross that way, It was the first two posters in this thread.
As for it settling down, I really do hope you are right

I never said it was.. and thank for putting words in my mouth....
you know what... you are right.. i do believe that people are missing out by not going (my personal opinion).... HOWEVER (and thanks again for presuming) I am not stupid enough to believe that they are going to be everyones thing....
.I speak to people who have tried then, don't like them and get on with it...
The point I was trying to make was back to the original question they asked "are they missing out on things by the way they are using the forum" the answer to that would be yes.. if they want to use it as just a reference section and nothing else, beacuse we know there is so much more there..... but if they don't and or decide no to then good for them!!!!!! nothing wrong with the way they use it....

oooowwwww - who got slapped with the touchie stick before falling in the grumpy bush!
I was not putting words into your mouth - I was expressing an alternative view.....
something I believe forums were intended for. Or should we all just follow the leader?

The site is getting more hits because they have put things in place (do you like my technical terms lol) to make it get more hits buy coming up on more searches. Fingers crossed it is just an initial wave and turns to steady ripples soon.

no.. i think i would be fine... thanks for the fake concern... love the comedic value by the way......and thank for cutting the quote of out context..especially where the next line was concerned.....
you express one opinion.. i expressed another... both are perfectly valid...and people will pick out of it what they wish.... i ain't here to argue with you, got better things to be doing... so lets just leave it where it is.......
and as for following the leader... which leader would that be??... i am not a leader or a follower....

we really hope it is just the rush before it all calms down again we were one of the first ones to complain when this site changed we have moved around to other sites but over the last few days it seems to have calmed down (shame about the chat room tho) as lots people have already said in time this (and other sites) will calm down and most of the one looking for a quick shag will bugger of but in saying that there has always been quick shag people on here so i for one am not going to moan about it anymore just keep poting and chatting and the whaet will be sorted from the chaf through time
