Admin stop this new feature posting our pics

You’re making all of us ladies look like advertisements in a mail order bride magazine

I do not want my picture up there. Please take it down

There must be some kind of law against you doing this without our explicit consent
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
I agree... Makes the ladies an open target...

Permissions must be given to reproduce photos... Especially for public consumption.... In my opinion Admin overstepped the mark big time...

Stalkers of SW unite!
helenS · 36-40, F
@braveheart21 ... unless they use a picture of conic sections from an old maths textbook as their profile picture. 😏
FrozenWasteland · 61-69, M
@helenS conic sections are sexy.
helenS · 36-40, F
@FrozenWasteland I'm so glad to hear that!! 🌷

It's a stupid addition that we don't need and don't want...and if the admins persist in doing things like this, more people will decide that they don't need or want SW either.
This site revisions are getting like an album from a one-hit wonder....one hiit and ten misses. Most of the revisions seem poorly thought out and are not liked by the majority of users.
helenS · 36-40, F
Yes, it's a problem for those of us who show their own face in their profile picture.
nedkelly · 61-69, M
@helenS Another idea not thought out correctly
helenS · 36-40, F
@nedkelly Appearing in the "user stripe" should be made optional, similar to the green "I am online" button.
TexChik · F
if you accept membership to this site they can do pretty much what they want with your pics. Does my pic show up there? Change your pic to something that isnt a pic of you, like I do.
TexChik · F
@helenS I block the advertisements. I kept having trouble with stalkers who didnt want to stay blocked. With VIP I can see who is looking at my profile and can determine if that is an alt account or not. it didnt take long and the stalking stopped.
helenS · 36-40, F
@TexChik I had to block 2 men who kept stalking on me. I asked them nicely to go away but they didn't so I had to block them.
I would never block anyone just because I think their ideas are an embarrassment to mankind. If you know what I mean. 😏
TexChik · F
@helenS yep. I block foul language, hatefulness, and perversion. I dont mind people disagreeing with me, 🤷‍♀️
nedkelly · 61-69, M
Some of the brides on order look very nice
MartinII · 70-79, M
The people who run this site do so to please themselves, not to please the members. Admin, are you listening? Do you ever read comments? Can you read? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, please respond.

ninalanyon · 61-69, T
What does the row of pictures actually mean? Are these people I've recently interacted with? Or what?
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@SledgeHammer Recent activities filtered and sorted by what criteria?
SledgeHammer · 46-50, M
@ninalanyon yea um... I'm not sure see... I dont work here..

Lol
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@SledgeHammer LOL.
But @Nuno, etc. aren't saying anything, so random passers by will have to do!
TrunkZ · 56-60, M
This is how I imagine the powers that be a day after the next big improvement is rolled out

Barefooter25 · 46-50, M
I don't like that new addition. Makes the profile pics look like spam ads.
what's the point of that anyway?
SledgeHammer · 46-50, M
@WonderGirl1 I think its pointing out who's posting on the board
helenS · 36-40, F
@WonderGirl1 You are reminded of users you interacted with in the past, might be useful for Alzheimer patients. 😏
Bklynbadboy12 · 31-35, M
@WonderGirl1 well your a pretty girl and you very popular that will make huys do what they want them too
Gangstress · 41-45, F
I dont get it if honest lol.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@Gangstress there is an option to opt out now. "Social/Images" Uncheck "Allow my Public Photos here". Not that either of us have a face image.
Lilymoon · F
Agree how stupid is it lol
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
I think many people will have the same idea sadly.... Same as EP....admin fucked that up and looks like here is going the same way... EP Allie all over again 😡😡😡 @iamonfire696
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
@braveheart21 yah it’s too bad they keep doing this
She is right of course. The default option should always be no consent. And each admin knows this to be the only fair way to respect the privacy of members. It only takes one of you to take a stand.
SW-User
If this is what they’re doing with pfp it’s now your choice if you want it to be your face or not
Eternity · 26-30, M
Then just dont post pictures 🤷🏽‍♂️. Or post them in your private album.
Law???????????? You must be kidding. Right? EVERY word...every pic you have EVER sent to anyone in your life .....or typed and/or posted on the internet........is now public information. The fact you show a picture.......on a site....even as an avi on that site only (supposedly).....means you explicitly agreed it now belongs to the entire world to do with as they please. YOU made ur pic public..........the site didn't.
They own whatever you have on this site.
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
I agree with there being no sense in the feature, but no, there is no legal recourse; when you sign up here you agree to their Terms of Service and have to play by SW's rules. That's how the internet works. :(
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
They can put our pics up on our public profile but that does not give them or anyone the right to reproduce them in any way shape or form anywhere else... @ChipmunkErnie
Alfarrobas · 31-35, M
No!
I feel sexy :3
Oh... wait? Just the girls? Why? I'm sexy, biatches!
Alfarrobas · 31-35, M
@helenS and if it doesn't fit anymore, just put the fingers in to get more space
xD
helenS · 36-40, F
@Alfarrobas I think we should leave it at this, ok 😏
Alfarrobas · 31-35, M
@helenS xD ok
Thevy29 · 41-45, M
Giving them permission to do it was probably in the fine print when you signed up... Besides, what kind of 'freaky stuff' have you been posting?
Jenny1234 · 51-55, F
@Thevy29 Why in the world do you think I post freaky stuff?
Russkaya zhenshchina gotova soglasit'sya na bogatogo belogo cheloveka tipa prezidenta s bol'shimi den'gami. Svyazhites' so mnoy
Jenny1234 · 51-55, F
@Spunkylama so you’re the real mail order bride then
Bushmanoz · 61-69, M
Im passing on the whole idea too. I am sure you have agreed to their terms, but it's just wrong
Jenny1234 · 51-55, F
@helenS yes right but I don’t want pictures of boobs and asses in my face on my screen 24/7
helenS · 36-40, F
@Jenny1234 I don't understand anyway why some people use those as profile pictures. I'm not against sexting etc., and probably sending nudes if you really trust someone, but I feel such a profile picture is too much "in-your-face".
LunarOrbit · 56-60, M
@Jenny1234 Dicks would be worse. Just sayin. 😂
GerOttman · 61-69, M
You probably consented to everything but a strip-search when you clicked the terms of service...
SW-User
Hey girl, I agree it’s really uncomfortable
They didn’t even bother asking this time. Wonder what it’s supposed to accomplish ?
helenS · 36-40, F
@bijouxbroussard What happened to your profile picture please??
@helenS I figured something more neutral might be appropriate with the change of format.
helenS · 36-40, F
@bijouxbroussard Thank you.
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
See my post... Photos... Use thereof
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
What’s the point of this feature?
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
At least its a real photo... Not a baby cartoon... Oh sorry are you part of Disney world... @BlueVeins
BlueVeins · 22-25
@braveheart21 Imagine being so insecure in yourself that you have to try & put other people down for their profile picture on a website. There's literally nothing wrong with having a cartoon pfp, I like it that way. You should get one too if you're feeling uncomfortable about your photo appearing in the feed.
Jenny1234 · 51-55, F
@iamonfire696 you're right, they don't gaf. The only way they will take us seriously is if all of us leave

@Stereoguy would uncheck that anyway. A public photo could be considered a posted photo on a post.

Once it's public it's public no matter what it's under.
@Stereoguy The only thing anyone can access then is your profile picture and you have no problem.
