Member Interest Levels

ok, Thanks. must have been just removed today. as it was there yesterday, but thanks. looking forward to seeing it again in usage. Might be real interesting.

It's something under development. It's been removed until it is back on a front burner.

Maybe either I missed the reply sometime ago or it was posted long ago and I missed it. but maybe it could be that nobody knows what that's for..?? please advise.....

What the heck is the thing on the blue bar near the top of the profile. i.e. " 29% Match (under development) " ...?? what is that for. ?

I finally found the mail history. I had to click on the multiple envelopes at the top and then click on Recent Mail history a few times for it to show the history. I'm just wondering what it does after the mail messages have been deleted from the server.

I like the member interest levels, for a quick reference on individuals/couples I have looked at or met up with. I am not sure if this is in the plans, but I would like to see the member interest level available when reading e-mails and searching. This way we wouldn't have to go into the profile again and see what was selected.

I think it would be nice if you selected the "no interest" icon on someone profile that they do not show up when you search

KFC, welcome to the forums. (Woo hoo...one virgin poster collected and I've only been online 5 minutes.)

You can find your mail history on the new profile view at the upper right hand corner. Its in between the friend icon and the interest level icon and looks like a stack of envelopes.

You can also use the "unprivate" button on the new profile view to remove access to your private pics.

go to your friends lists. At the very bottom is a list of who has access to your pictures. You find their name and hit remove.

I do not see a history with the new profile like we had with the old one. Sometimes we may get emails and not be able to get together and later on can therefore i have no idea what we emailed about. I would like to see history back on here. Once you give a user access to your pics on the new profile HOW DO U REMOVE THEM?

What i really object to though, and is a complete waste of bandwidth is when searching or looking at "who's on" there are all these listings that come up in red type that say to the effect that they "user is not looking for single males at this time, if they find you and want to contact you they will". What a waste of bandwidth!

Why not just write some code that recognizes that I'm a single guy, recognizes their desire not to be contacted by single guys.....and then tie the two together so that I don't even see those listings in red. This would certainly make each page of shown listings more relevant to the user, and also it would look a helluva lot better than 1/2 a page of listings in red saying "we don't want you"..

Or.....at least give me the opportunity to block every single one of those listings when they show up on the screen so that i can accomplish this myself. if they want to block me, I'd probably want to block them as well, don't you think? Would I be interested in anyone not interested in me?

Put a "Block" tag on each one of those red listings.....pretty simple.

I don't like the way the stars thing works either. Consequently, for the longest time I have just blocked everyone in my geographic area that mentions in their profile that they have no interest in single guys, or are above my age preferences, or are way too fat for my tastes, etc.

As a result, my blocked list is hundreds long. The result though is whenever I log on I only see the people I might have an interest in, or brand new people to the site. Sure makes llife a lot easier than weeding through pages of profiles I may have already looked at only to find that they are not looking for someone like me, or I'm not looking for their type.

But you see, the whole point of what you are calling "blind emails" is that they are an INTRODUCTION. A wink does nothing except show me that someone can click on an icon. It doesn't show me that you have any more than a passing interest. We get tons of winks on other sites, and frankly, I'm sick of them. RARELY, if ever, does anyone actually take the time to email after sending a wink.

This is about marketing, and sending a positive, upbeat introductory email is what is, in the end, going to gain you far more than sending a wink or two at folks who may or may not be interested. S

This site has a wonderful system available for letting people know you'er interested! It's called e-mail!!! Works quite nicely too...

just sayin'

Hi... thanks for the help.

That's not a bad added feature, but it still includes people for whom I haven't made any decision. I prefer the additive approach, not the subtractive. I just want to mark the ones I like then pull them up later. The way it looks like that feature works now is that I'd have to mark "no" all the people I don't like then view who is left.

Can you add "show only interested" to the search instead of just "hide not interested"? That would be great.

Thanks

Hi!

On this feature, I think it shoudl be treated like a "hotlist" is on other sites. Saying "interested" is confusing because it sounds like it may be a wink, ie. that it may be communicated to the other party.

I've set a few to interested, but now how do I go back and list all those that I marked to show them to my partner or start sending emails to them? That's the key piece missing.

I like to browse and collect, then go back and write to those I've collected.

The way it seems now, I mark someone as interested, but then nothing happens, I have no access to those decisions unless I randomly find that profile again and notice that I had marked it. Must have a "show me all those I marked interested" feature.

Thanks

We have marked a number of profiles “no interest” because their listed upper age limit is well below our ages. Those profiles are essentially saying they aren’t interested in us anyway, so why not flag them as “no interest.” That way, they don’t show up in the search function and fill the screen with profiles that there’s no sense contacting. It’s just a tool for the member and not a measure of other users worth. We would like the ability to search on the interest levels that we have flagged.

And will they suggest some ideas (constructive crit. is great)

My only question is: Will you be able to see who is rating you?

I think it's a great idea. If you are secure in yourself what do you care what others think! It gives you an idea what is or is not working. Hence "edit"

Ms2,
Can you tell I have an interest in your frog?

I have to admit that it is not joyous to see when someone has said "not interested". Since it is MY profile, I want to say, "I didn't ask you if you were interested!" However, it could seem as if I did ask that since that option is right there on my profile. I would like a way to shut it OFF!!

If a guy is interested, he will send an e-mail. If he is not, he can just go on down the list. He does not need to "slap" on a signal there that he was not interested.

PJay, I actually feel that way about couples most times. I don't care who is viewing us, I want to see that they're interested enough to send the email. We have the privacy turned on with another site, so that who we perv and when isn't shown. I like it that way. S

If we could see the "groups" not only that would help see the interests of the couple or single but also by going to those groups we could find swingers with similar interests and contact them.

If I feel attracted to a profile and I see they are members of a group I naturally want to look at the profiles of some of their group's members. And you may discover some friends that way too. Some sites have that feature and they list your "interests" or "groups" you belong to on the side of your profile.

A very big ~Wink~ to PJay..... and a really warm ~Kiss~
