SHRep

21 Jun 2010

Reading the pdf, I saw the following 'benefit' in the meet section:
"It is a consensual system that is used only by two members mutually using the Shrep system."
So if I arrange a threesome, do I have to toss a coin to decide who can leave me feedback?
If I am involved in a bukkake session, and there are 5 blokes, does the woman/man at the centre of all this have to arrange 5 different uses of the Shrep system? Or maybe he/she could make it some kind of competition? "Whoever cums first can leave me feedback!"

I'm sorry that particular line needs to be revised - later into the development, we enabled a meeting to be created between multiple users, so it is not limited to just two, those who attended can all leave feedback for one another. Providing you have Shrep enabled, you can enter the Create Meeting section to see for yourself that adding more than one user is possible.

Neil, the above is from page 1 of this thread and may answer your query

Damn those edits wot I've not read ((( rolleyes

;) ))) but having now read it in context I read the intent of it the same way. I think the revised advice was probably given to allow for group sexual encounters, not so that all attendees at a purely social event could give each other Meet Rep?

If and when I meet anyone, any rep that I give will be about what kind of person they are, if they turned up if we got on, etc .... It would be no one elses business if we played or not and I certainly wouldnt be vouching for how good anyone is in the sack.
The advice states that the meet rep is for face to face meetings and nothing else, it says nowt about shaggin!!!!
The site rep is for interactions on the site, the vouch rep is for you to vouch that your friends profiles are genuine. There is no social rep, or fuck rep ... there is a meet rep which kind of covers both in my opinion.
And anyway, who said no one plays at socials??

Without quoting anyone else or the rules it seems quite obvious that there is a gap.
I as some above envisage the meet rep to be intended for people who meet up for a sexual encounter rather than a social. However I also feel those who attend a social or munch should be given something more than just a vouch when vouches dont even rely on face to face meetings. The easy answer is shrep needs a new section for event attendee's dunno

Leave it to the organizer should they wish to confirm whom attended and attendees can get an event attended badge lol

No feedback just confirmed events attended 5 for example.
Just an idea.

A 'meet' is a 'meet' it does not necessarily have to be a sexual encounter.
If this is the case - what if you arrange a first meet purely to see if you 'gell' with that person/couple...... does this not 'count' as a Meet? Or, you turn up but then have second thoughts later in the evening...... does this not count as a meet? What if it's a party - u may attend but not shag everyone there.... does that not count as a meet?
When we hold socials or parties in the future (as the organisers) we will send Meetrep's to those attending (and have SHrep active), so that they can have the benefit of a positive feedback if they attend or a negative one if they don't...
We're not worried about someone's performance in the sack - but I do get royally pee'd off at people who don't show and don't have the decency to send their apologies before hand - if they do then I delete them from the Meetrep.

To my mind it counts as a meet due to the fact that all parties involved are meeting with a definite view to taking things further should they all agree...

This is a sex site it advertises meeting others for sex. We would never rate someones sexual prowess by meet rep however I would think a very large proportion of the site that do use it use it for meetings that were for sexual purposes or intended sexual purposes. Remember what a small proportion of the site the forum is number wise? We will almost certainly be the only people using it for a 100+ event so could see how others would find that misleading. I use rep for some PC on line games and some other on line gaming services and you know when I see peoples rep I expect them to have played the game not just have been sat chatting in the lobby :lol:
Imagine I set up meet rep for the munch we host. We could get 60 meet reps or more and this for a couple who in 6 years has never played :lol: Now imagine how that looks to someone who surfs into our profile and see's a meet rep of 60. It looks like were the fuck nutters of the south west which couldn't be more from the truth.
Personally like I said above maybe shrep could use a social/munch score but severely doubt that will happen. From my own view point a vouch is not perfect but the fairest shrep to give for a social. If I sort anything official for the Bristol munch it will be vouch's along the lines of if you add as a friend and turn up we will vouch your profile.

Well since you put it that way ...... yes I agree a social/munch score would be a good idea.

Exactly this. It's all well and good splitting hairs about what 'meet'means, but we all know what a 'meet' is, and what 'meet' means in the context of a swinging site. Meet Rep is meant to denote that two ( or more ) parties have used the site facilities to arrange a swinging meet, and all turned up as arranged.
Making arrangements so that meet rep can be handed out en masse to attendees at a purely social event not only makes the rep given meaningless to other users, I'd go so far as to suggest it would actually be misleading. IMO, it sounds like an attempt to subvert what the system is meant to denote, just to build up the rep count.

Sorry... I just wanted to pick up on this. I'm skipping over the rest because I don't use Shrep. By social, what do you mean exactly? Is it a social in a public venue or a private club/house?
Just curious like. :mrgreen:

Quote by Naughty Wigan Couple
Me too Steve, and I still say I wont be doing for the Wigan Munches as I do not like the idea of people putting their names down for a munch purely to get a Meet Rep out of it, I want them to come because they are interested in attending a Munch. However the wording for the Meet Rep does say it can be used when members or groups of members arrange a meet, so it probably is the best place to do it.

NWC,
On the flip side it might have a useful function for many Social/Munch organisers lol

Whilst it can be used to set up invites to regular attendees at such occasions, alongside the usual Forum thread.
(We think that the 'single display/screen' might have advantages in managing the list, last minute cancellations etc. rather than continually trawling through a long/pages of thread)
You could also state in the Forum thread that Meet Rep will not be provided on those attending, which would address the 'putting names down purely for ...' scenario you mentioned.
However as most organisers know, there is a minority who seemingly routinely put their names down for things and whom never attend and never apologise, therefore depriving genuine peeps a place at a popular Social/Munch where the venue as a limit. :twisted:
In these cases no show and no apologythen perhaps Meet Rep should be used so as to provide feedback (it's up to those receiving the feedback whether they publish it), so the Forum thread might also state that Meet Rep may/will be provided on no shows after the event
It's an option rather than compulsory, so perhaps something to consider.
Perhaps, when things have settled down a little and people have got more used to Shrep then the Meeting Invite could be limited to say 9 or 10 invites, which would make it ok for most users and house party organisers.
However for 'happenings' with larger numbers, such as Socials/Munches/Club Meet type of 'events' then perhaps a review of the existing 'Events' functionality alongside Shrep 'Meet' and 'Forum' functionality might be undertaken.
(Perhaps a single input screen for an organiser that would create the initial Forum entry in the correct Forum, a default link to any Social or Munch guidelines in the initial Forum entry, the ability to sent an invite to known regulars via Event or an event part of Shrep)
As said one for the future

The socials we have been to so far have been in clubs so many people have played and we have not been to a social yet where we have not played.
We are looking at attending the munch in Bristol as well as organising one near to us in the near future. Of course these are in public venues and so there would be no playing, just as there would be no playing if a social was in a public venue.

Its all just too fuc*ing complicated.

I'd like suggest a proposal somewhere to bring out an instruction book, free with every new account or renewal and £5 for free account holders. This could included a quick start pamphlet for ease of site navigation.
Poor f*ckers new too the site, oh and me, feel intimidation through complication.

Next idea is free lube and condones for passing certain swinging milestones is it do you think?
Hey could call it all SHwinging instead of swinging or would that be a really shcrap idea?

Thank you for your advice but I can say that I will not be considering this. I have organised the odd one or two, and very rarely have problems you mention with lots of people not turning up, I think I will stick with the tired and tested method I have in place, which for the last 10 Munches I have organsied and the dozen or so socials, has worked perfectly well.
I want people to come to the events because they want to be there, not because they want a Rep putting on their profiles.

One of our good friends on the site went to leave us a SHrep (SiteRep), unfortuately, she checked the 'negative' instead of the 'positive' box..... smackbottom

As our SHrep are automatically added it went straight onto our profile and we now have
THE RED BADGE OF SHame :scared::upset::violin::giveup:
We can't delete it - she can't edit it........
Now feel like a site 'lepper' - oh the shame of it, I'll have to walk the streets with a bag over my head, I'll be banned from Tesco's let alone having our Swinging club memberships withdrawn, no more cozy nights in the Chatrooms. - life as we know it has ENDED!!!
:doh:
UPDATE:
Now reset to GREEN - life returns to normal, Tesco's here we come! lol

Well now we have been busy with life love and the pursuit of happiness fer a bit so we missed outright the inception of Shrek. However have had a quick sken through the thread and on balance (although I do have an innate tendency for stating the blody obvious/over simplifying) the words , more trouble than its worth spring to mind.

Silk,
I actually seems to be working quite well now the teething issues have been de-bugged, however as they keep saying it's optional and by default it's dis-abled on profile.
The only think it's not designed or able to do at the moment is be enabled and disabled, i.e. no doing the hokey cokey lol

Hang on !! You mean that once people have switched it on, they can`t switch it off again !!
Hardly "optional" then is it ?
No Flower, that is not strictly correct. You can turn it on or off at any time you want but the Reps you have given stay with the person you have given them to and any given to you, re-appear if you turn it back on.
However, if anyone does have any questions then I am sure Admin or one of the Mods will try and get an answer for you.
