Looking at some of the adds on here, and it does seem that some are to good to be true.
Are they there for a reason ie.
1)Getting people to become full members.
2) They are just people on a wind up.
3) Totally genuine & up for what's in there add.
Or is it just me being cynical?

I reckon you`re going to have to be just a teeny bit more specific about what you find "to good to be true" Reggie dunno
agreed.....if you have any reason that an AD is not genuine,there is a report button,then the mods can decide what to do next.
There are plenty of genuine people in here, and it has been said a few times about how hard it is for newbies.
Im a single guy and i still have not met anyone, it takes just a little time to settle in and see whats what. You were a bit burnt around the edges i noticed in here and maybe this has made you think a bit.
My suggestion is first to look at your profile, it does not say much about you guys. There is help on here

let things happen in there own time chat to people here or in chat room dont try to push it or it will run away so to speak.
there are adds here that are a waste of time though
Ooo I never ever look at ads.... must have a browse some time.

Hi to you.
And thanks for the welcome.
Likewise, I've not met anyone yet from SH, but it doesn't bother me. I've had a couple of great email conversations with people and the forum is a good place to hang out too.
I'm happy to dip in and out and not expect too much and if it happens that I meet someone at some stage, it will be a bonus. What's life without a little hope?
I'd say just enjoy what is here and don't focus too much on the authenticity or otherwise of the ads... the really genuine people seem to be the ones who hang out in here.
Hi Reggie and :welcome:
Now for us we've been signed up since September and have met 3 really nice couples from the ads on here. They've served us well so far but it's hard work. So yes there are plenty of genuine couples out there. BUT it does take work. You only get out what you put in wink
We were told by one of our couples that they nearly didn't respond to our ad because they thought we were in their words 'too good to be true' redface
and unlkely to be genuine. Sorry to say but we are normal folk just like you and your wife.
But Reggie what do you mean about 'too good to be true'. Too good looking? Want everything you're looking for? Surely this can be different things for different people?
Lastly, only one way to find out if they are genuine. Contact them, chat over a few emails you soon get a feel for the genuine people.

to me ad's sound like your selling yourself, i wouldnt walk in a pub with a sign with details to pick up men, so dont wanna start on here... my personal reason... i like the good old chat asking your age and stuff find it more intresting...
or i'm just dull and nobodys told me rolleyes
i dont really take much notice off ad's and stuff, tend to chat find out more, and how the come across an ad you cant tell that..
god i'm dull could someone save me please :shock:
wave Well we met someone last weekend from an "ad" soooooo must be OK as they are verrrry OK! wink
Being cynical won't achieve anything, one thing we do is send an email telling the reader a bit more about us rather than winks, just an idea. :idea:

:welcome: there are so many peeps on here whether they come into the cafe for a chat, chat in the rooms or just browse
how can we know if they are all genuine. dunno
All I say is that everyone I have chatted to in here & in the chatrooms (that I/we go in) are all genuine. My advice would be enjoy what your gut instinct says. :dunno: who knows if peeps are genuine unless you try. I have seen so many threads in here saying about no shows but this happens
Good luck with your search & enjoy the site as well. (I personally have made a lot of friends on here let alone alot of good times wink ) maybe get yourself known & then put your name down for a munch?

Are they there for a reason ie.
1)Getting people to become full members.
2) They are just people on a wind up.

1) Definitely not.
2) Report them if you have evidence or something is blatently wrong, they get checked, people taking the P have the Ads deleted and when necessary their accounts de-activated.
3) yep many are what they claim to be.
With anything some people may try to mislead for whatever reason, but there are a lot of good, honest people out there as well, pretty much like real life.
I think the majority of the ads are probably genuine when they are placed but a lot are placed by newbies who may chicken out when it comes to the crunch.
Others just don't feel any attraction to you (whether because you haven't sold yourself or you're just not their type; it does happen).
Whichever, the disheartening part is when they don't bother to reply. Surely it doesn't take much to say "thanks for the interest but not what we're looking for".
Then again there are those who get their buz by receiving replies (and photos) without ever intending to meet. Needless to say, some of them may not be what they say they are!
A couple of indicators, however, can give you some clues:
How long have they been a member? If they only signed up that morning chances are they haven't done it before.
Are they active in the forums and or chatrooms? You can tell quite a bit about their character from what they say and do.
Sorry for the ramble but I have had mixed results. However, when you do click it is well worth it.
