Point 2, after complaints we withdrew the notice on profiles that users were free or paid members. It was claimed that it was an unfair judgement that they couldn't pay the site fees thus putting off any one getting in touch and pointless them being members.
There is still a backdoor to find premium members, by using the Search Members function:

Sorry but this is a very poor response. I can't believe you want us to see SP as some sort of charity for poor swingers who can't pay their way. The purpose of the free members is to bloat the membership figures. I have no problem with that, but I do have a problem with using them as an excuse to provide a lesser service.

[quote user=Sid_n_Nancy][quote user=truescorpio]5 The persistant ones: These can be males, females or even couples. Check the dates they joined up, then check the comments. If they have none, once again, you know what youre dealing with - NO ONE sticks around for three years paying hundreds of pounds if theyre not getting meets!

[color="olive"]Right I'm sure we've been here before True but swinging is not just about meeting up and having sex!
There are hundreds of people who just like to cam, some just like to share pictures and some like to exchange stories. some like phone sex or erotic chat in here or on messanger, the list is endless but in our opinion these are [b]ALL[/b] forms of swinging.
Some members would love to meet but just haven't found the right people or haven't got the time/baby sitters etc.
Just the fact that they haven't met people does not necessarily make them fake.[/color][/quote]
Nancy - are you Sagittarius?

Nancy - are you Sagittarius? [quote user=dave_chani]Our photos are pro but we are happy to appear together on cam [/quote]
Agree with the cam idea. Essentially, anybody who has appeared on cam and chatted, should be verified. Understand that some people don't want to perform (although we have), but just the act of appearing and chatting is enough to verify that they exist, just as much as the telephone idea. It would be good if the site could automatically flag that a user had attached a working cam at some stage. It could be used as a search field.
True - there is one 'woman' on here who I would love to name. I'm convinced she is not real, but I'm just not certain!
[quote user=ellie_n_jay]I have bi-curious on my profile because I am just that!
I haven't actually done anything with another woman, other than kiss and that made me want to experiment more.
I don't know if I could ever say I was bisexual as that might suggest that my attraction to women is equal to my attraction to men. I could never imagine myself having a proper relationship with a woman, it's just the sex I'm curious about.
When it comes to sex I am just greedy, it's the only word for it!

Agree with Ellie. Despite already having ff sex, originally had profile set to bi-curious as whilst sex with a woman is a real turn-on, it doesn't mean that a full-on relationship is what is wanted. Our desire is for a threesome, and would not want ff sex outside of that. However, changed profile to bi-sexual to indicate the level of desire is very strong. :-)
[quote user=truescorpio]You misunderstand me Mindy, I never said for one second that single males are OWED anything, my arguement was that I am sick of the attitude toward us as a whole. [/quote]
Fascinating thread. Almost an accusation of racism.
Almost didn't reply as there are so many issues being covered where does one start, and at the end of the day I have no real desire to knock True's chip off his shoulder. However the amount of passion and understanding shown in this thread does prompt it.
In some ways I get True's point. Some people on this site are capable of being pretty unpleasant. When we first joined there was accusations thrown that we were a single male in disguise and it was really quite nasty. Having been on the cam a few times has sorted that, but if True has received some bile then I get it. On the other hand if he is attempting to get some of the males in couples to rethink their position then he is generating more prospects 'for his kind', although the way he has gone about it suggests he has been successful on behalf of sm's other than himself.
I offer our story as one suggestion to True to help him understand some of the couple's perspectives on here, which resonates with other posts in this thread.
We are new to this. Before we came on here we attended some clubs to see how we felt. Bluntly, the behavior of many single males can only be described as 'animal like' and threatening. We discussed at length what we would like to do and the extent to which we feel comfortable, and the fact is that our NSM statement is Mrs. Ci's choice. It represents her own strongest fantasy, as well as being the 'gentle' and 'least threatening' way into the scene. I constantly fantasise about seeing her with another man or men, but at the moment neither of us is confident enough for that. We may never be, and we may drop out of the scene altogether. Or we may be come fully-fledged members, but for now this is OUR chosen way in, it is not about my ego. I suspect that many if not most couples start out like us.
Mr. CI
What a ridiculous debate this is.
This is not about morals or ethics, or how someone 'should' or should not think.
It is not necessary or unavoidable to make the profile page available on google or any other search engine.
Some people, paying customers, care about it.
So don't allow it.
THE RESULTS ARE IN!! :notes:
So its been a month now since we put this poll up on the Board. We can now tell you the results of our little experiment.
Drum roll please ......:happy:
3.6%
That's it. Just 3.6%
Of the people that visited this poll, just 3.6% could be bothered to do just one more mouse click and vote. :doh:
Any thoughts on what that shows?
[quote user=cicouple][quote user=admin-nick]Problem with partners dob being reset after update should be fixed
New mail notifications are working ok for me, was this an old bug or is it still happening? If its still happening could you check the notification settings in the 'my profile' section to see what its set to.
Mailbox count should show correct when you first login now.
Favourites problem should also be fixed
The chatroom count is not real time but is updated every 10 mins. So that would explain why the count differs to the actual amount in the chatroom.

Aha - hello Nick
Email notifications definately not working and profile set correctly.
Mailbox count is working
Favourites problem still not sorted completely - although better bacause it ahows 'Browsing'. My favourites show lillyandchad in the chatroom and they are not in any of the rooms.[/quote]
Email notifications still not working
Favourites listing is still kack. Looking at my inbox earlier today it showed a number of my favourites online in the little box to the left. Went into my favourites list tonight and it shows at least one of them as online a week ago.
I read an explanation that some favourites are shown as on-line when they are not because they haven't logged out. Suggest not logging out is the norm.
And what is the sort order of the favourites list?
The favourites functions are really beginning to annoy me.
My least favourites are pics of fat, pasty, hairy middle aged men trying to look sexy, UGH!!![/quote]
That's because you are not a fat, pasty, hairy, middle aged woman.Excellent thread MO.
We are intrigued to know the answer as taking pics is our 'thing'. We regularly check the number of hits on our pics to see what works and what doesn't. From our own pics you can see the sort of thing we like - sexy clothes and shoes, erotic and suggestive poses that are a little 'arty', high quality camera.
An interesting observation - some pics that work in full size (as full as this site gets) don't work as thumbnails. We took a pic that is 'arty and erotic' but wasn't getting many hits. Cropped it slightly to make it clearer on the thumbnail, and hey presto - our most hit photo over a couple of weeks.
A feature I would love to see on the site is the ability to have some form of ranking or voting against each of our pics. It was why we started a poll vote on this forum to see what would happen.
