Admittedly I'm not on the SA site, but based on all this it seems that they really want to be a legit dating site now. I guess why they technically removed the "arrangement" part of their name. Although, along the same lines, the SDM site is constantly inserting an alert at the top of all the chat pages as to how their site is for "genuine, long term relationships". I realize that we all have to be discreet, but it isn't as if these sites can pretend to be Match.com or eHarmony.
Have you ever described or thought of yourself as "intentional"? Where do they come up with this shit? And yes since you mention it I will intentionally lead you straight to the FC.
[QUOTE=FarFarAway;7572763]I am so sick of seeing this on profiles. It is everywhere. What do these chicks mean by it?
My intention is to bang your little brains out. It is as simple as that. But that surely isn't (only) what they want, they want to be courted too, mostly.[/QUOTE][QUOTE=HollywoodGuy;7615245]Have you ever described or thought of yourself as "intentional"?

[QUOTE=HollywoodGuy;7615245]Have you ever described or thought of yourself as "intentional"? Where do they come up with this shit?

I sometimes see this term on the profiles where the SB is asking for all her needs to be met, to get everything she wants.
Side note. Is anyone else recently experiencing more ghosting in the SB arena? Connections will be made and messaging started on the site, perhaps even entering some arrangement discussion and then the replies just stop. I think I have six SB's in my chat list who either matched with me or responded to my initial message and they all just stopped replying after a day or two. Such a bummer!

I think we should all start asking them, and post their silly responses here.
2. GHOSTING. It doesn't seem any different to me. It's a funnel: Message on site 🡺 Message off site 🡺 Agree to meet 🡺 Actually meet 🡺 FC! A percentage drop off at every stage.
[QUOTE=HollywoodGuy;7615245]Have you ever described or thought of yourself as "intentional"? Where do they come up with this shit? And yes since you mention it I will intentionally lead you straight to the FC.[/QUOTE]Actually my own take on it is that they want something more long term.
[QUOTE=ReboundJohn;7608616]Inbox is full.[/QUOTE]Made some room but traded with another bro on here. Sadly didn't bother meeting. Wanted 300 for a quickie and no anal. Might just end up going back to hx or khouses. Been looking on sdm lately because membership is significantly cheaper but so are options on there. Def not as much or as hot.
Or maybe they meant "serious", which is one of the synonyms for "intentional" according to OneLook?? Could be an artifact of a not-so-good translator.

Bro, what is your plan moving forward?? I tried to set up a brand new account and going through all of the "clean process" to separate my old account is just too cumbersome. Gave up. LOL.

Banged an SB the other day who said a friend of hers set-up the Seeking account, no longer needed it and "gave" it to my SB. FFA, have you considered begging someone on this forum to "give" you a Seeking account they no longer use? I know I have 2 accounts in good standing. One I transact on, the other one used to see if I've been blocked. Maybe there's a generous soul willing to help you out.

I cut and pasted that email, which I received a while back. I was suspended but not banned. I just had to go through the facade of watching their video about the ToS and 'community standards'.
It is good to know that 'policy' is out there though, and what you have to do to keep active on the seeking site. It is a royal pain to get back on if you get banned.
I hate that I have one black mark against that particular profile. Any little glitch in the future, a complaint from a girl, and I could lose it. Sometimes it is so easy to do something that you don't think is a problem, but it is. And you really want to hold on to grandfathered profiles. That profile, it has some old photos of someone who looks like me and is not selfie verified, which is of course required for new profiles these days. I'd never do that.
I agree. I'm out if I am ever required to verify to maintain my subscriptions. The price is potentially too high.

Will it require face verification if I convert it to paid?
I read about this app today in the LA Times. It is for those 'exploring' their sexuality. Seems sorta like fetlife. It is only a phone app, not a website, so far as I can tell. I could imagine 'age gap' relationships would fit into an 'adventure'.
Anyone have knowledge / experience?

Anyone have knowledge / experience?[/QUOTE]I used Feeld, it's pretty much like any other dating app. To get the most of it, you got to pay. Like most apps you're going to be a million fish in a big pond. Lots of the same providers that post online already you can catch there. Most success I've had with it is in Vegas with other women, couples that are traveling and looking for fun. That's my 2 cents.
