Message/Chat System

The messaging system eats messages sometimes, and they disappear after you hit "send" so you have to type them again. It's another new feature..

This is on top of my SLS webpage... SLS will undergo maintenance which may cause members to experience intermittent outages between the hours of 2:00am - 6:00am eastern time on August 10, 2021.
We appreciate your patience, as we work on site improvements. ~ The SLS Team

I can hardly wait for the "improvements" What won't work this time, what good things will be replaced by useless and irrelevant?

famed message from the powers to be... "we are working on it"....

Anyone else having issues with messaging yet again? Or just us?

It is absurd that after this many years that SLS still has this atrocity of a message system.

This site functioned better in 2008 than it does now. You could send emails, store them, attach pictures, edit pictures yourself inside of SLS, attach specific pictures to forum posts. About the only things we have now that we didn't then was Hot Date and Who Viewed Me. Everything else has degraded.

Recently I have had to type messages a couple of times to get them to post. It was happening a few weeks ago then got better for awhile. Looks like it is back again.

No, this is different and I've had it happen to me too. The site's working fine, but tonight I had to retype two of the four or five responses that were required. I typed, hit send, and nada. Disappeared completely. And it's a site issue, because even though my response disappeared, the profile I replied to moved to the head of the queue, ahead of those I hadn't answered.

LewdDude - I've had messages disappear like that when there were widespread problems with the website - so I've also learned to copy before sending just in case. But when the message system is generally working I've had messages disappear like that when the profile I was sending to had been deleted. According to Wayne there are a few days between a profile being deleted and it being removed from the website - and messages to that profile just disappear.

@LewdDude, when composing a lengthy message, try to remember to copy before sending. If you send and it goes "poof" into thin air, just paste and try again. Alternatively you can make your reply on Win-Notepad or Android-Memo and copy to message pane. Yes, it's an extra and completely unnecessary step but alas it has come to this. (just copied this just in case...)

and the cams are down in the chat, again!

Most people just move to a chat app as soon as possible to avoid the issues (missed messages, messages not sending, IM just not working, etc)

And this, along with the overall wonky-ness of the site, is why our pictures have been removed as we edge closer to the exit door.

Four hours later, the message system is still not loading. And this, my friends, is why it's best not to rely on SLS when you need a reliable mode of communication.

@EdandBritney, indeed, you can set your sundial to the malfunctions if you had to!

It must be the weekend, messages wont load again

Leggy Wife, consider yourself lucky. I could not even get to read MESSAGES most of the morning. The ball just circles endlessly.

This morning sometimes I would have to re-type and send my message FIVE (5) times in order for it to get through!

Sault Sainte Marie, MI, Us

I tried to respond to someone new 4 time today. I thought it was me at first!
Very frustrating as I still haven't been able to send the message.

Grand Haven, MI, Us

I can't scroll through the messages. I have complained a lot about how slow their servers are. The app is horrible. It constantly crashes yet they keep telling me they fixed the issue. They have our account flagged and won't all us to say we are taking a cancer break, yet others can post it. But as they say, we can't catch all of them lol. We also use swingtowns and your pics and bio are updated instantly. You don't have to wait 24-48 hrs for approval.

Seymour, TN, Us

Well I also had posted another post about how the web page was loading badly and so were pics. I guess the reason my post was deleted by some higher SLS authority was because I asked if anyone knew a swinger site that actually worked all the time.

It's weird that only three of us member types have this problem. Maybe it might be people are so tired of complaining about it and nothing happens?

Seymour, TN, Us

Trying over and over to send a message to a couple. Message screen won't load up so I can send one. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
