Frequently asked
questions
1. Why isn't my ad up yet?
Your ad
(profile) is approved before becoming visible to others. This takes up to a
maximum of 24 hours but is usually no more than 2 hours. Currently the
profiles are approved by me and an admin team employed to look
after the approvals 24x7.
2. I'm new to swinging, how do I get into the
scene?
The best way to get into the scene is to answer an ad or post your own.
That's what this site is all about! As this question often comes from single
males let me offer some direct advice to that group - try answering ads from Couples
seeking males - always be polite - send full photographs,
cock shots will not get you as many responses. If at first you don't succeed
- try, try again. If someone says they are going to the Bermuda triangle
for an extended holiday take the hint and move on.
3. Jo - David; how do I get to meet you/have my
picture taken with you?
Single women and couples - send us your photos first! One of our
hobbies - travel - often means we are out of email contact, so if we don't respond
right away do not be offended - we may simply be out of town.
David likes to play
with ladies who are keen, active participants. He is at ease with
husbands/boyfriends being there to watch, take pictures or to join in. There
are more details of his likes etc on our private site
joanddavid.com
Men - David is flattered by the attention but he is STRAIGHT - please do not
waste your time and proceed directly to the profiles and do a search for men
seeking men in your locality.
Jo likes to play with men, ladies and couples, with David either in the house
or in the action. Check our her profile JoJo for more details.
4. I'll be in Town on x night. How do I get
a really beautiful girl?
We cannot guarantee action to anyone - not even ourselves! You
have four options here -
1. use some foresight and planning and answer some ads a few weeks before
your trip to arrange a meeting
2. visit a swing club during your visit
3. put a posting on the dirty
david forum - you may get lucky
4. call an escort
If anyone has additional ideas/options on this theme let me know.
5. How does one get started as an
escort?
Other than reviewing the ads we have little contact with escorts. We encourage
you to contact them directly. Remember these are professionals whose time
and expertise are valuable and treat them accordingly.
6. How do I start my own adult
site?
First, you will need to give up all your other hobbies and interests.
Maintaining a site is a lot of work which doesn't leave much time for other
things. Remember that if you create a site that people like, they will be
very demanding, and keep asking for more content.
For general information, our server is a dedicated rack in the USA. We use FrontPage to create
the pages, and an 8mb broadband connection to upload everything.
If you want to go ahead and build one, there are many excellent tutorials
on website building available through any search engine on the web.
We will also build you websites go to http://www.ddproductions.co.uk
for more details.
7. I will be in the City on
x day. Please send me details of clubs/parties.
All the information we have on house parties and commercial clubs is on
the site "Clubs and
Parties". If you have details about clubs or parties in your area
please send them to us and we will add them to the site.
8. Please introduce me to Jane/Sue/Lynn
etc.
We do not do personal introductions except between people we know, and who
we think may get on well together.
9. David/Jo, I have had no responses to my ad
- or no one responds to my emails.
This site is a resource for swingers. It is not a members club with strict rules, so
we have no means by which to "make" people respond to profiles or to mails sent
in response to a profile.
Men please be aware - couples and ladies who advertise for men get so
many responses it is impossible for them to respond to all of them - To try
and understand the problem we have been talking to a few of the new advertisers.
They have told us that the response rate has been in excess of 500 emails
a week. This means that to read the responses alone takes a very long time.
If it takes one minute to read each mail, it takes more than eight hours
to read 500 mails, and replying to them, even at 30 seconds a mail takes
more than four hours. Emails with pictures slow the process down, especially
when you send them at high resolution (greater than 96dpi) and/or where the
image is very large - greater than a maximum of 600x400 (this is plenty large
enough to let people see you - greater resolution and size is only needed
when you want to print a picture).
Don't respond to ads where you do not fit the criteria of the advertiser.
You are wasting their time, your time, and clogging up the internet with
hundreds of pointless emails.
Please read the etiquette section to be found on the links above.
10. David/Jo, is my email link working?.
Yes. we cannot force people to reply, but your mail has reached them, and if
they have tried to respond their mail will be in one of your in boxes inside
your profile. Remember that if your profile details do not meet the criteria
laid down by the recipient of your email, your message will go into their "non
matches" box. Also premium members have the option to turn off replies from non
premium members to keep down the number of mails.
11. Can you tell me where to
find:
- a Turkish/Swedish/dominant escort? - check my
ad listings, or some of the links to other escort boards. We do not have time
to browse the internet very often, when we do, we are not looking for
escorts.
- a discreet hotel in London/Paris where I can take
my girlfriend? - use a search engine and look for hotels+cityname.
12. My wife/husband is not keen on the idea
of swinging, how can I persuade her/him?
You cannot without risking your marriage, talk about
it, but don't push it. If it is not something you both want to do, don't
do it - it will end in tears.
13. What is acceptable
content?
It is easier to say what is not acceptable: this
is our list, not a legal requirement
-
No Children to be involved (a person under the
legal age of consent) in any sex act or picture. (If we think a person looks
under age we will ask for picture id (a passport) as proof of
age/identity)
-
No animals to be involved.
-
No violence - beyond mild
bondage/spanking.
-
No pix of scatt.
-
No mention of Rape or sex under duress
-
Pictures of genitalia must be accompanied
by a whole body or face shot.
-
We do not allow the advertising of other
websites within the profile system, no do we allow telephone numbers or
email addresses
We will always reserve the right to pull any ad that
we do not think fits in with the tone of the site.
14. What does ac/dc, bdsm, etc.
mean?
Have a look at the "Terminology" page listed at top of the
page
15. What do I do at a swinging
party?
Have a look at the information on the "Etiquette" page listed on
menu above.
16. Why don't you have a chat
room?
I have now got an excellent chat room integrated in the ads system.
17. David, can I buy you a
beer?
Yes please - mine's a pint of Stella ;)).
