As many of you are new to the swinging scene, it has been suggested that perhaps some guidance on contact etiquette would be useful.

Everyone should be here for the same reason, to make new friends and to have some fun.

Treat others as you like to be treated, witgh courtesy and respect.

To keep everyone happy, try following these simple guidelines.

Please respond to all e-mails you receive.

Most people will have spent time plucking up courage to write to you, and time thinking of the right thing to say to get you to notice them.

It does not need to be a long letter, if you do not want to meet the person, we have even made it easy for you with a quick reply button saying thanks for getting in touch, but I am not interested in meeting you. This lets the person know that you are not interested and they can move on.

If you are an escort advertising for business please advertise with the disclaimer "Paid Services". If you are an escort advertising for play friends please use a different e-mail address from that used for your business. If I am made aware of people being asked for payment when responding to ads outside the escort area I will delete the ad.

When responding:

Always be polite.

Tell the advertiser what you like about their ad.

Tell them how you think you will meet their requirements.

If you enclose a picture show your face - most people like to see the person, rather than a piece of genitalia. If they like the look of you, they will then ask for another picture, a nude one if they want it. (some people do want nude pictures from the start, but they will usually say so in their ad).

Keep the language clean, match your response to the ad. Don't go straight in with a hardcore letter.

If you are turned down by an advertiser, don't keep contacting them - you are not going to make any friends by being a nuisance or abusive. Just move on to the next advertiser.
