Hi everyone,weve recently had quite a few pm's saying that we should have seperate forum profiles.
Up until now we have both been against this but we are starting to wonder as to if we should now do this (especially as Clare gets all the attention).
So here we go, heres everyones chance to tell us if its a good idea or not!!!!
And it would be nice for opinions as well as votes.
Cheers,Clare and Steve xxx
I think that you should have your own profiles due to the fact that you've already realised the possible need for them ?
Also I would advise that if you guys do want to meet more people then you should set up a Web Page on this site with some photos perhaps ? I realise that I've got non but thats due to a issue of confidence but if you two are more confident then go for it.
I hope that this is in some way of help to you & are you going to the North Wales Camping Munch in early July ?

Thanks,we have never thought about doing our own web page but will certainly give it some thought.
You see that's why us Dragons have great insight due to being 250,000 years old.
I might be old but Ladies I can still move on that dancefloor biggrin
I think the deal is you are a swinging couple , of course all single men on here have a simple agenda , and it only involves Clare so I can see how that message might be being sent . I don't believe it's a message you guys want to hear though. (Regrettably!)
Yeah I think that unless one of you only uses the forum occasionally then you should have seperate profiles. It'll stop me offering to cover Steve in angel delight if nothing else redface lol
It'll be good to see an avatar of Steve as well (you never know I might change my mind about the Angel Delight :eeek: :lol: wink ), plus we can get to know each of you rather that a mixing of the 2.

uuuuuuuum i'm getting scared now easy :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: lol
From the three posts you have made in this thread alone, clarensteve, you have only identified which of the two of you is replying on one of them. That's where confusion sets in. Having just one account is not a problem, as long as everyone knows whether they are talking to Clare or Steve. KitKat did similarly for a while whereby they had one account, but one signed as Kit and the other, Kat. They now have separate accounts. There are a few who have separate accounts, hopefully one of them can give you some advice from the receiving point of view.

Jon and I have until recently shared this profile, but when he was made an op in the chatroom he needed his own email address for security purposes, so decided to get his own profile as well.
It hasn't really made any difference to us as we still get all the contacts etc coming through our joint profile and email address. We more often than not post on the forum under this one, although Jon has posted once or twice under his own.
After all as a couple, it's our preference to keep things together as far as contacts go. That way there is no confusion as to whether I am a single woman or part of a couple.

Hi
We have a shared profile and don't find it a problem ,but as Tim has only posted about 3 times I consider it mine anyway. lol

I've just realised I never sign my name, I just assume people will know redface how stupid surprisedops:

remembered this time anyway :lol:
Seperate wink
Mal is correct in his observation - we had a 'joint account' for a long time. It worked really well at first, but then as I became more confident, it led to frustrations all round cool
There are definate benefits from having seperate accounts:
Kat does not have permanent bruising on his arm and shins redface
I can say what I want, when I want and to who I want lol
We both feel that we are here as a couple, but are able to express our individual opinions/thoughts in our own right
It works for us I think. Although we are very careful to retain our identity as a couple, hence the split user name.
Kit
xxx
No doubt Kat will add his two penn'orth when he gets in
dunno
Well, what do you expect for 2p???
No - seriously - this decision seems to be much more complicated than it should be.
Just set up a separate account for one of you - try it, and if you do not like it, go back to the joint account.
Our situation was different from most. I was on here with my own username for about 2 months before I broached the subject of swinging to Kit. This meant everybody had a picture of me as a single bloke.
When Kit joined me in the forum, she did not feel confident enough about the site, or the technology, to have her own user name. Ergo, we ended up with KitKat, again, because we were both on one user name, I tended to do the typing and still dominated.
Finally, we only had one computer in the house, so it was much easier to have one user name so that we could both post. (well, almost true, I was able to log in with two user names but it got hellishly confusing switching between them)
Now, we have two computers, so we can both log in, Kit is more confident in the site and the technology, and now has her own 'personality' on the site. I am free to disappear off to moderate, or to leave the cafe and vist the SH basement, while Kit tarts around in the GFZ!. rolleyes
I felt it WAS important (to me) for us to have separate user names on here, purely because I was the one who dragged her in here, and it gave me confidence to see Kit able to enjoy herself on her own.
So, now I have managed to use loads of words to say absolutly nothing useful - I will return to point one.
Set up a second user name, have a go, and see how it feels. cool
lhk
Kat
Well, although we're Daz and Lou, Daz never posts on here himself, he just relays messages to me that i put down for him, lol!! Therefore i dont see the point of a separate account, but also, we swing as a couple so we thought it would be better to keep it under both our names!
Hiya,
We're both really new to the scene and this site so our comments may not be of any worth!!!!
I really do think it's a choice you have to make and not let others decide for you. i think there are merits for both cases. In our case, we will definately be leaving ours as a joint account, because we are a couple, we do things as a couple and we are in 'the scene' as a couple. Apart from the odd turd with the most un- imaginative PM to us, or Susie, i should say, most of the messages have been sent to us as a couple and not as individuals,(albeit the odd turd described above) I tend to agree with Daz and Lou's posting. But, if you feel that having your own seperate identities will benefit your use in the forum, then go for it. It's just not for us!!

Whenever you post I have to read it several times to try to work out which one of you has written it, so I vote for the Seperate Accounts. Having sperate accounts doesn't make you any less of a couple, look at Kit and Kat, Mr and Mrs FC and Fred and Wilma. (in fact, cancel that last example!!) lol :lol:
Even as a couple you are entitled to have conflicting opinions. Some would say it is even compulsary!! :shock: :lol: :lol:
I would suggest seperate accounts, at the moment I am the only one of us who posts on here although Charlotte (My much better half) reads the threads avidly.
I she decides she wants to actually post then we will set up a seperate account. This avoids a lot of confusion. We have joint account on a different website and I get more male attention than even I can handle!!! :shock: :shock: lol :lol:
