Genuine People or Friend Collectors...

January 26 2018

When I'm on site I usually take a look at the newbies who come along, and also check out who is presently online. One of my pet "peeves" are the people who are supposedly on here to hook up, usually are interested in broad age ranges, have friends sometimes amounting in the hundreds, and yet not a single validation !The people are inevitably 'guests' , so how do they collect so many 'friends'. They can't communicate via the chatrooms, nor send messages (usually). So how genuine are these people ?

    don't need to message anyone 😉 and friending can happen between 2 guests without them ever having spoken. There are people who it appears just accept every friend request. I find those profiles offputting because I don't get why? Validations pfft they are floored and faked, care factor zero here if they have them or not, usually more suspicious when they do have them

    I don't see the value in building up 100's of friends between guests. You don't know anything about the other, apart from what (might) be in their profile (and how true that might be). Tall

    Can’t speak for others but I have had friend requests from others I have never spoken too! I haven’t accepted them and they are often in conjunction with a flirt or two - clearly as a guest they are trying to get my attention. Which in case anyone is wondering unless ur profile matches it doesn’t work. But as with another comment above I find profiles with bulk friends quite off putting personally. And yes I have spoken to guests who have never spoken to friends as they have only sent each other flirts. I have even had a guest I’m chatting to ask me to send a message to their friend to hook them up 🤣 made me feel a bit pimpy that day 🤭🤦‍♀️ - Posted from rhpmobile

    When I first joined I accepted Friend requests because I didn’t really know what they meant lol, and now just continue to, I guess I feel people would feel rejection if I said no. Touch is correct in that females don’t really need to be members on here, we get sent enough messages. I do not have any validated showing, but trust me, I’m here to play and I do 😈 - Posted from rhpmobile

    I have found that you can tick every box that someone is looking for but you will most often be judged by a bad photo. People claim to be genuine but are they really? If Ron Jeremy was not a porn star he would not have a chance on here. Just saying - Posted from rhpmobile

    From Randoms only have guys that I have met, are interested in me or vice versa or chatted to via messages. All of my validations are from guys I have met and the same for my validations for them, they are not flawed (correct spelling) and even if someone is validated I would still read and find out for myself if I was interested. I am a guest and get guys send me friend requests all the time. I guess it is a way to get attention. Doesn't bother me I just don't accept them.

    Like Megz85g, when I first joined RHP I had no idea what friend requests were all about, so I accepted them all. And even when I figured out that there were no special benefits associated with being 'friends' with someone, I still accepted most requests. It became a bit of a laugh, and I figured I might be giving someone else a helping hand by adding to their friends list. This time around, I'm way more discerning, and have met or at least interacted with every friend on my list. But TBH, I don't pay much attention to other member's friends list, and only look at the friend requests I've received every couple of months. Whether you have one friend or one hundred is neither here nor there as far as I'm concerned. There are more important things to lose sleep over 🙂

    I have just sèemed to accumulate them over the years because i'm a sucker who can't say no fuck off. I'm not very good at rejecting someone who wants to be my friend so I add them. The more the merrier. LC.

    Whats funny is I have lowered my list about 20. Some Ive never met but Ive actually met upwards of 500+ people through events I use to organise and help host. So at the end of the day friends lists are there so others can judge. If I had all the people I have met on my friends list the judgers wouldnt believe Id met all the people anyway.. Also in the hay day of the chatrooms people friended each other all the time as it was very social. Another reason for long friends lists is marketing, as your feed lets you know what your friends are up to. Hence, when I did have over a 100 a friends they were notified I was holding an event. As for validations - why not and again who cares. LC...Good on you. Makes someone happy anyway and who cares why. - Posted from rhpmobile

    Remembering RHP was once predomimantly a swingers site. Here in WA it was in full swing and validations were used a lot. Used because no one got jealous or had their nose put out of joint coz he or she or said couple OMG wait for it, fucked other people. Validations are good in the sense of just sex and nothing more. At least you know they may go alright. Remembering tho, one persons cup of tea is not always another. I agree with FFF on personal validations. I dont need the WWW to know who I have had encounters with. Its a personal choice and shouldnt be judged by the jury.

    I find this topic interesting, as I was initially a fence sitter who would not accept friend requests or validations, then decided fuck it! I do look at friends listed on a profile, I believe in most cases it indicates the person is real, actually meets people ( not pic swapping time wasters) also can indicate the type of person they are or what they’re into. ( yes totally judging by their social interactions, but don’t we all???) Sometimes you can tell a lot about a person by the company they keep. I was concerned how mine might be judged, too many, not enough etc. so I added to my profile that my friends are genuinely people I’ve met (not necessarily played with) or people I’ve maintained a friendship with through this site via messaging and/ or calls, social meets and the like. Validations are similar, no need to get into it. I’m pleased that I’ve had the opportunity to form genuine relationships and connections through this site. Each interaction has opened my mind to other people’s lives, kinks, attitudes and personalities. I like people and I’m a social butterfly 🦋 In the case of swingers and parties, the friends list can indicate a good turn out and respectable host. It’s also an easier way to get the invites out etc. so what, this is social networking right. Let’s all lighten up hey? ☺️ - Posted from rhpmobile

It is a simply a genuine question, asking how guests, who can't communicate with one another, get literally hundreds of friends along the way ? So as per my heading, are they genuine or just collectors ? Nothing more. Tall

    When I first popped into RHP land I did accept friend requests, however after reading other posters sharing how they only have people on their lists whom they know, I took that on board and decided to delete those on my list and follow on with what those posters did. Currently my list is empty so if I do get the opportunity to perhaps meet some from here or pluck up the courage to attend a Meet & Greet that would then give me that opportunity to have people I have met on my list.

    With the most recent Melbourne Meet & Greet which I wasn't comfortable to attend, however I had a thought about catching up for the pre gathering (Saints and Sinners) drinks at the pub, I thought about maybe turning up and saying hello to everyone but of course I knew that wouldn't be the right thing to do as contact needed to be made first.I now wish I had gone with what I thought doing and made contact and caught up to say hi.

    Mainly to show everyone I'm was a real person , albeit for only a hour or so because of work commitments ... Not much time to get to know everyone , but I did reckognise a few faces and introduced myself and some recognised me doing likewise.. Dissappointed I had to leave when the convo's were starting to get interesting , but having a obligation to my clients were just too important .. So consequencely no real hook ups and only a few bothered to come say hello back on the forum the following week leaving me with mixed feeling about meet and greets. Not saying they are all like that as it was my fault my time was limited.. Naturally Saturday's are the best time for most ppl , just not all ... Jay..

    It's a middle ground that makes people think something is happening. You either verify and message people or verify and receive messages from people. Being friends is traditionally used by fake profiles or by people who are passive in nature and fear rejection, thus will unlikely facilitate a connection anyway. It cannot lead anywhere positive sadly. - Posted from rhpmobile

    I think it's more a way to show interest, just like sending a flirt, it grabs attention in hopes to get viewed. I wouldn't personally do it myself because i would want to know that person first/ meet. But it's much the same as having thousands of Instagram followers or facebook friends, feeling of being involved or wanting to be involved. Would be lying if i didn't say would be nice if i had a female send a friend request to me, but females think more logical, i don't know this guy why would i friend request without knowing him. In my opinion. I could be wrong all together. Plus im bored atm. - Posted from rhpmobile

    If they are not wasting your time? I could be accused of not being genuine. I've never had a paid membership. I've never been a friend collector despite having met RHP members from every state in Australia. Ive said not interested to many. Those people could definitely see me as a time waster. I think people use this site as it pleases them and who are we to pass judgements about how genuine they are.

    Mmmm not very genuine in our opinion just here for an ego stroke. Female's don't need to be members nor put in any effort they expect males and couples to put in all the effort as they have so much choice. Just goes to show the person they really are as many can't even send a no thanks after reading a message. No judgement just a observation 👍 - Posted from rhpmobile

    Well, when I first joined I had this horrible ideal that the friends list was everyone you had played with, then I realised the vaildations were more for that. 6 months down the road now and I’m not bothered by either the quantity or the type, ie, male, female, couple etc. took three or months to learn about being a human on here first and not try to friend or fuck everyone. Hopefully the mindset is right now. Only those whom I have genuine connections with, sexual or otherwise are accepted. I have given each a little piece of me and I’m Perfectly ok with that. I’m in my RHP happy place right now, I have some very open and candid chats as well as some deep heart to hearts with my friends. I’d have their back in a heart beat if they needed me for anything, and I’m sure they know that too. Not here to rack up a list that means nothing to me let alone a bunch of notches on my belt.

    For me personally, if I look at a woman's profile and the friends is full of muscled up guys, I move on. As for receiving friend requests, the only ones I get are from new profiles that rack up a lot of friends quickly and then the profile gets removed just as quick. Obviously fake. I exchange messages with a few lovely people on here that I have never met but I don't need to have them in a friend list. We know each other is genuine. KJ 👅

    It’s just like any other social platform. Not as bad as others though. I resent Tinder with passion for example. When it comes to attention seeking, and collecting followers, it’s by far the worst. Supposed to be a dating app, now people use it to direct others to their Instagram account. It became a milestone of exhibitionism. Nothing wrong with any fetish itself, it just agitated me when people use dating apps for it. Saddest part is instagram princesses with thousands of followers but depressed posts about being single. Well if you actually tried dating instead of collecting people like a wannabe cult leader, maybe you wouldn’t be alone? All of these apps and even this one we use is actually a social experiment. - Posted from rhpmobile

    ..that worrying or caring too much about what other people do or say...is a slippery slope downwards, generally. That "too much" is the grey area. How much is caring too much of what other people do or say?And that's something that I always tread carefully around. Being mindful of it. Other peoples business, and it not being mine, pretty much all of the time. I've said it before on similar topics on what I think of collecting "friends" in this place...that it's unnecessary, unlike Fb, where your friends' actions determine your news feed and the bulk of what you see. Though, I guess, "friends" here could be useful as window dressing for your profile...but it could also be negative in that respect too...unknowingly turning someone away from contacting you. It's like...if you like persons, and you will likely contact them again...you have their numbers in your phone. You don't need their photo's decorating your wall, as well.

    I tend be more caution in adding random people on my listing since i tend to get them daily. So only those I've met in person are on my list as for the potential ones, they go onto the hot list if I'm keen and wanting to keep in touch.

    I take validations seriously especially with single guys! I’m been validated by two couples and friends with them too. To me it shows that a person is genuine and really into the scene. I’m a guest and don’t see the benefits of upgrading. As the only reason would be to contact single woman and that never eventuates to anything anyways. - Posted from rhpmobile

    Good evening.. I do love hearing everyone's comments and such strong opinions.. Apologise for long txt also.. I too take notice of huge friends lists and have thought ITS NOT FB guys but then pull my head in!!! who CARES.. Where would we be if Rhp wasnt a lovely mixed bag so yummy and full of mixed flavours, ages, fetishes, experiences, wants & desires, events & opportunitities , weird & some questinable sorts . but also a place where I can get 100s of people sending me requests or cock pics or fantastic tits n ass ,sexy young ooh so well hung boys and older men and women, cpls wanting to know me, fuk me & taking time to put it out there.. And its my choice to do what I like!!! add or not to add , meet not meet ,play or not to play.. It depends on a lot of factors why people do what they do and Everyones different on here and i thank god!! There's some strong points on list, validations etc I have 1 validation and I've had a lovely mixed bag of people - so im not a time waster that doesn't meet?? Ever thought i may ask not to put up anything about me.. also i attend events and have played at only a few -Am I a tease or prude who shouldn't go? I also ignore some messages not all intentional Am i a rude bitch?? its my journey and maybe sometimes its overwhelming or life gets busy or could be personal reasons or your a wanker.. Or Ur too old or fuck I'm juggling my time with several I'm satisfied for now. I too could have 100s of friends I just don't except anything and could be one of above reason who knows sometimes i dont always have an answer . so how would some of you..

    which have raised some questions for me....Do you thinks it's ok for a person to reapeat what they were put through by a couple of women?Does that make it ok?What gives those fomer posters the right anyhow 'it's none of their buisnessAnd what right does a former poster have to stick their nose in to my business?I don't get your negitivity when you simply could have ignored me instead of getting caught up in it? 'granted that is what's happening now.What if for personal reasons and nothing untoward, that is nobodys buisness I am not able to attend Meet n Greets, why should that even be an issue?And to add I have had enough lived experiences to know that I have lived my life with respect for those who respect me and have done my best to be thoughtful towards others and I am old enough to know I do not have to answer to people I do not know.It's forunate that by my choosing there are plans taking place for me to meet some RHPers I have always wanted to hang and chat with, again my own free will choice to make not put under any pressure to do so and that's the way I roll. Quoting 'Meander' You can definitely turn up to Meet and Greets without having made contact first, as long as you register. I've always had people who didn't know anyone come to mine, I thought that was great (and brave). Meeting in real life is the best way to show people you are who you say you are, and dispel any myths. Years ago I attended the M&G organised by Freya and Tuscan, to show them I was not a fake profile created by Mischievouslad, which they accused me of. Please know that if you are not who I think you are, I will sincerely apologise to you for my negative comments to you. As for the validations, yes you can choose from a list RHP provides. Personally I think if you met someone and liked them (let alone got naked with them), they deserve more than a template though.

    but I often get the impression that some posters paticualy some fomer posters have been put up on a pedestal, so to speak, imo, to me my lived experiences have taught me that no one should be put on a pedestal, we all have knowledge and are our own guides. There are many posters on the forums whom I appriciate, they have shared some great things that have given me info I did not know as well as giving me insight and that includes you Meander.

    I now know that my preference is to keep my friends list private. I have observed not just on this platform, it can cause a bit of a conundrum when in comes to people/friends posting on forums. I doubt I'll change my mind, well who knows after all I am a woman. Quoting '00001' ---- from my previous profile ---- When I first popped into RHP land I did accept friend requests, however after reading other posters sharing how they only have people on their lists whom they know, I took that on board and decided to delete those on my list and follow on with what those posters did. Currently my list is empty so if I do get the opportunity to perhaps meet some from here or pluck up the courage to attend a Meet & Greet that would then give me that opportunity to have people I have met on my list.

    wish I had gone with what I thought about doing and made contact and caught up to say hi. then I wouldn't have unexpectedly and unwittingly got caught up in a predicament I found myself in and would quite possibly have made some real-life friendships with some fellow RHpers from Vic & Interstate.Quoting '00001'With the most recent Melbourne Meet & Greet which I wasn't comfortable to attend, however I had a thought about catching up for the pre gathering (Saints and Sinners) drinks at the pub, I thought about maybe turning up and saying hello to everyone but of course I knew that wouldn't be the right thing to do as contact needed to be made first.I now wish I had gone with what I thought about doing and made contact and caught up to say hi.

    It's a shame that with all my effort, going out of my way, jumping through hoops so to speak to alleviate suspicions about me and believing in good faith that the below would most likely happen (it didn't) well it turned out that my belief in good faith was a bit hasty. ..Letting my guard down by going against my initial gut feeling is something I will now make sure that if I sense any doubt, I won't engage in further communication. I now know it would have been better off to have ended up blocked..I feel I was used and played, the purpose being a self-serving motive .I still hold the thought that maybe at some point I would like to have an opportunity to meet some RHP'ers, it would be arranged privately..There are some people I would like to meet. Quoting '00001' It's forunate that by my choosing there are plans taking place for me to meet some RHPers I have always wanted to hang and chat with, again my own free will choice to make not put under any pressure to do so and that's the way I roll. It's a shame that the valid questions I raised where this part of the above post has come from had no response. I have wondered why I would have appreciated answers.

    I attempted to contact you privately but either your profile is locked to all, or I am blocked. If you are trying to communicate with specific people via forums such as these, I think you should be aware your posts are coming across as nonsensical and repetitive. Perhaps it is time to leave these messages for private rather than being so public.

    Hello Tall - reopened my account a little less than 2wks ago and I’ve already got 47 friend requests from randoms 😳 I don’t know why they do it when it’s more fun actually meeting those people/engaging with them long term via messages and eventually meeting prior to “friending”. I guess it’s a new age phenomena when people are time poor or too technologically DISadvantaged to make friends the “old fashioned” way. **clearing out my random friend requests now** ~ Indy

    My posts were def not intended to be nonsensical, at the time I posted them a familiar pattern of posts directed at me were emerging which were causing me to feel annoyed and frustrated. I took my time to reflect on the previous scenario and what was appearing to be starting again, so my posts are relevant, there are those in the know with regards to there relevance.

    Make good use of what I had to say, I hope it was helpful. Getting back to the premise of the thread with another similar thread trending at the moment. Personally, I really don't make too much of it Tall. Once upon a time I was more than happy to just accept without too much thought because I was easy going about it. It was fun and not a problem in any way that I thought about at the time but I would clean up every now and then anyway because of their ability to follow me through that link then. The forum is an interesting place with all it's different points of view. I value that I have learned so much about myself and other people. Peachy

    and on reflection I don't care if my posts seemed non nonsensical as at the time some shit started up that no one was aware of, I was both frustrated and pissed off. I have been dealing with it on and off ever since. Quoting 'MsJonesy' I attempted to contact you privately but either your profile is locked to all, or I am blocked.

    and then I started slowly putting myself back together, all the more beautiful as Kintsugi pottery in the making. And every time I break a bit more, my beauty shines all the more. Interesting thought Usebi. Peachy
