For the vast majority of users on here, it's literally a non issue

The only people who I've seen complain about it are guys who spam PMs to women on here

@deadgerbil that is not the case - have you not noticed that to interact with 'New' people, you have to [b]BUY[/b] VIP ...

AND it just so happens that there is a dearth of 'New' people joining SW - are those 2 things linked - even the 'New' tag is 'new' - so can't you see what's happening

@BigGuy2 It doesn't help either that the majority of new users are likely bots. At least the 18 - 25 aged female accounts.
So it seems like this site is trying to trick the simps into buying VIP.

Older ones over 26, especially male ones, are probably legit humans.

Also, one guy about my age with a new tag was able to PM me, but it DID land in requests. Of course what messages end up in request is random.

@CestManan ... not so much trying to trick a specific age group, as that will limit their revenue from ALL people who will be fooled into buying VIP - i would guess, that what they've done is, they've done a diagnostic check on which are the most popular groups that people sign up to {so one of them being ANR/ABF} then they flood those most popular groups with 'New' people - whether bots or not
