The idea really is that to use the site properly you have to pay. You can't get something for nothing! Without premium members the people behind the site wouldn't be able to afford the hosting which enables all your pictures to be stored, the programmers fees to create the features such as video profiles and the video chatroom, this forum, etc etc.
That is true RWB.
Also it is possible for free members to recieve mail and therefore make contacts that way.
This ite is actually better for free members than others we joined before joining here.
well said actually redwhiteandblue. and i knew they could 'recieve' mail. but i thought the admin etc blocked out emails and wep pages from other users?
Not to my knowledge. We have never had a problem recieving email contacts through personal mesages.
The system does in fact remove email details from messages sent to or from free member accounts, and I believe free members cannot contact or reply to messages sent by premium members, which is why we often get invitations from free members to view their private galleries without any pics in them - it's the only way they can contact us! Still doesn't get our attention though!
I think the site is more than good to its free members they have access to 'tame' pics, all profiles and can read the forum
personally I'd much prefer if it were only fully paid members that could access my profile not just those who are in for a nose around.

also a very good point. i'v noticed alot of the free members write one or two words to try and attract people... i dont see how people can decide to join, but put 0 effort into their main source of contact to other members
Great to see that you made the right choice Toy Boy, and upgraded to Premium Membership!
Welcome to the best Swingers Site available!
Now change that Profile to tell everyone about yourself and delete the moans! Once again Welcome aboard, and we all hope you find what your looking for.
It might be an idea to give premium members the option to have their profiles open to all or only to other full paid members.

Let's not forget exactly how many of the free memberships seemingly belong to fraudsters.
Do we really want them to have extra privileges? Doesn't bear thinking about, does it?
It is for this main reason that I will NEVER message an ad which is free.

Just my pennies worth, but - free members should be allowed to nose around and then be removed after a while if they don't pay up. I'm fed up with reading one liners without pics that could be ancient.
There are freebie things going on for those who won't spend a few pence a day on their sex life.
If you can't afford 50p a day to get on here, how do you afford condoms and travelling expenses?

:D Hey everyone im new :D:D (will introduce myself shortly in the newbies bit)
Does anyone else think this site is a bit harsh to free members?
they cant reply to people who welcome them to the site, or leave an email address for people to get back to.. i just think its a bit unfair to the great population of free memebers that sign up then.. i assume never come back because they cant do anything without paying.
what are other peoples views?
think it would make a good discussion 
) but i view anything "logged in over 2weeks ago" as a non starter...
