Why do people prey on newbies? Sorry but I don't believe the 'want to welcome you to the site bullshit'. Is it any wonder women leave this site when they are hounded within minutes of joining. FFS guys think with your big head not the little one. Let the ladies find their feet first. Maybe then more will stay.

To be honest if I signed up to a new site and within 7 minutes I was already getting inundated with messages from men, however well intentioned and welcoming they were, I'd probably be a little overwhelmed too so I'm not surprised that, for some, it's all a little too much a little too quickly. I know from chats with a few people on here that their inboxes were overflowing even before they'd posted any pictures or updated their profile.

Definitely not a criticism of you OP, but I can just imagine a newbie being overcome with attention

It's very common place now to see 2 or 3 hr flashes...even here in belfast area with its small community theres multiple daily flashers. It's having a negative effect unfortunately. Something needs to be done but no idea what.

Exactly! Within an hour of joining we had hundreds of messages. No pics. No text yet we were gorgeous blah blah. All got bulk deleted and we knew to avoid those that had messaged within that first day as they sent the same message to every newbie. Tho we weren't new to the site if we were we would have left.

Just had a thought on what you were saying...If there was a 3 day cooling period of not being able to send or recieve messages it might be a good thing. Newbies won't get pestered...It would give them time to look around...and it would stop those who join to get a quick shag and then leave.

what do others think?

I can say from my experience and a friends that any "female" that appears as a newbie does get inundated straight away. And yes I had no pics and no text in my profile at the start lol. My first 24 hours, in fact first week or two, were rather overwhelming! I was ok as I had a lot of time on my hands at the time as I wasnt working for a bit. I had no idea it would be so full on as my only previous experience was dating sites where people are obviously a lot more choosy and restrained haha. I eventually took control of my mailbox with my filters and it's far easier to manage now. However, some poor girls must find it too much

I have said many many times that filters should default to active rather than newbies have to select them. It makes far more sense to select who you want to receive messages from rather than who you don't.

I think the way some men pounce on new member is a bit desperate, Its no wonder women leave within minutes when they are bombarded with messages

sounds a sensible approach, opt in to receiving messages rather than having to opt out!

Yes a good idea. Filters defaulting to not receive messages is another good idea. Maybe having to acknowledge the faqs may help some as well.

She will have received a lot of messages in those 7 minutes the sheer magnitude you receive as newbie can be very intimidating

Can't be just us that actively avoid messaging profiles with the newbie tag?

And would never make contact with an unverified newbie account

Hey ho... She came. she saw she left. Her motives for joining and leaving are unknown, there could bbe a thousand and one other reasons other than overwhelming number of messages for her decision to leave....

P.S ..some ladies do thrive on the attention,

It's no big deal,they are just messages. Unless you're a complete flake and cry over a broken nail you should be able to deal with it. Blimey,anyone would think this is reality on here

Not everyone will be as resilient as you. I'm sure you can appreciate from day to day life that it takes all sorts, in my (limited) social sphere I know people who are unmovable rocks who let nothing get to them and others who curl up at the very mention or suggestion of any controversy. Maybe the lady the OP speaks of didn't have the right constitution for a site like this and those first 7 minutes just confirmed it. Who knows?

"Well I wonder if she got the message from xxxxxx can't name and shame, that a female on here showed no on Kik. Stuff about licking pissflaps and her taking a shit in his mouth. It was long graphic and in that vein. She told me she was leaving due to all the messages along those lines she received daily. I told her report him but she said, with some justification, 'what's the point'

And we wonder why single women leave. Rubbish like that screams out 'skin suit' I'd be upset to "

If she can't deal with a few dirty messages how will she cope with a face full of spunk??

I like this - sensible idea. Even a 24hr or 48hr buffer, would be better than dropping a newbie straight into the shark pool.

When joining a new site people won't know that filters even exist. Or if they do see the 'Admin tips' they might think they'll have a look later.

In the meantime their inbox is filling up with desperate men that will mail any female profile even if it has no pics or text.

It's not necessarily the number of early messages, it's the content that can be most off putting.
