how do i find new members without trawling through all the members?
| qweqwe wrote: how do i find the new members without trawling thr how do i find new members without trawling through all the members? |
there is a flashing arrow pointing to fresh meat
and there is an option on search
"who have updated their ad ... In the last 30 days, Anytime"
which takes in updated ads so some well hung meat to go with the freshers ![]()
What makes you think they want you to find them?
I don't know what's right and what's real any more
thanks that is very helpful.
It's a good point, but is something I really like about IC. You can see how old someone's profile is through searches dictated by reams of other criteria, or when you get written to etc. but there's no holding pen for highlighting the flow of newcomers, which is probably a blessing. I bet they'd get sharked like fuck on here (not to tar you with any such intention, of course).

It's a bummer, isn't it?
We used to do be able to sort adverts based on age of advert, easy to find all the new, keen and naive totty. So easy to impress, so simple to mould and shape, so accepting of almost any flowery crap you fed them, so lacking in comparisons to measure you against.
Admin buggered up that rich seam of helpless prey by removing the sort by age option. Now I have to wade through all the experienced, switched on aware femsubs in my hunt for easy pickings.
A quick tip from someone who knows about these things, in your ad you major on TRUST, TRUTH AND HONESTY. Very laudable. But you also mention that you can arrange a hotel or meet at their place. This is a huge flashing warning sign of the married or otherwise encumbered. How flexible are you with evenings or weekends?
Best to just say they can come to yours but then make excuses on a case by case basis, this week it's the builders, next week your mother is staying, stuff like that.

Also a good job, until 9pm Saturday night at least, that there is not an easy way to search for indiscriminate "desperate for sex" type female members ![]()

We need an ironic emoticon, it seems that my post went right over your head. On the other hand it could be me who's missing that you were being ironic too...

I think the OP may be a reasonable question.
The assumption seems to be he only wishes to approach new (naive) members.
No doubt he has spent the last 2 months searching through the existing members and wishes to stop wasting time repeating that process.
ebay has a "time: newly listed" search option which avoids having to plough though all the items each time, so you just search back to your last log on.
However I take your point that if it was on this site, it would result in new members being swamped.

It would be good if when people sign up they were offered the choice of being highlighted as a new member, with a warning that they could be flooded with memos

Can I just ask - why would anyone wish to be identified as a new member?
The thing I like about IC is that you can have a profile, but choose whether or not to have your advert "active".
So, regardless of whether you joined five minutes ago (+ seven days) or have been a member for eight years, you can be as visible or as invisible to those looking, as you like.

When was this golden age of sorting results from searches? I can't remember it and I have been here for a year or so-ish.
In the old days you had a list of all possibles no matter where they were in the country, matched by gender and that was it. There was a list of names with a region beside it.
Science, the only religion that works even if you don't believe in it.
Women wanted, preferably with their own Rohypnol.
Searching for newbies? It's easy.
Just do a search for:
"I don't bite... much/unless you want me to" "looking for someone to 'show me the ropes' lol" Any quote on submission by Anais Nin Some idiot with a pink baubel in his pic
That should give you a fair amount to be getting on with. I look forward to your memo.

IC has been around a lot longer than a year. Me too. This format is relatively new.

Is this some sort of test?
It used to be possible to sort by age (of advert), I don't keep a log of changes to the IC website. How long ago I don't remember, perhaps Admin does.

Luckily archive.org does and you can go back and check various facts. Which is fortunate as memory doesn't work like videotape.
From 2002 until 2004 it was possible to sort the found list by join date order, since then there hasn't been a choice, you have been stuck with last sign on time.
Interestingly back then people were just as forgetful about turning their ads off when they had found someone as they are now.

Well, statistically, the former was far more likely. But i'm several standard deviations from mean you see.

There are some experienced people on here that do that as well - though I've always regarded it with some suspicion.
An option that reveals “Members who have received 400 memos in the last 48 hours” would be more appropriate if looking for “fresh meat” - but the clue there is that you are unlikely to get a response (positive or otherwise) until things have settled down - meaning that people like the OP have stopped mobbing someone.
There is someone on here (who “moderates” his weblogs) who does seem to have some success in picking up those who don't know any better ......... so the tactic can work - though you have to question the necessity of its use.
There is a certain irony here though - if you keep shooting at every newbie on here - you also have absolutely no idea of what you are potentially getting into.
What goes around comes around ............
Ever wondered who the devil comes to for ideas ?

I find Fresh Meat is the best site for finding hot new material to try out: you'd probably be better off looking there.

Well Said Admin. qweqwe was one of the first to contact me when I signed up a few weeks ago. I take it you have solved this problem for him. Or maybe it was my post of NEWBY LOOKING FOR A TEACHER that did it. I wonder which it was?

So there you have your 'golden age' then.
All you needed was a smattering of Gorean, random caps, a few well chosen quotes from Castle Realm and the ability to write like a pervy Mills and Boon writer.
Oh, and a deep, deep appreciation of the value of the gift that would be bestowed upon you if you were the cherishing type who would accompany the neophyte on her journey.
