It would hardly be fair and would just turn into a mass brawl!
People have different definitions of timewasting as well
There are many threads on this subjrct have a look through the forums for them xx |

Because your definition of a time waster might differ from mine and others ...
What do you class as a time waster and why would you want to shame them ?
Dont you think such a facility could be a tad open to abuse ??
I've never heard of such a stupid idea ! |

The site doesn't need a name and shame board as they are always abused, if someone says something you don't like you tell lies about them, well not you or me but some would. some people have been known to call people timewasters just because they decline to meet someone, there are always two sides to every story.
It does however have a block button, click it and the person you believe to be a timewaster can no longer contact you or talk to you in the chatroom |

@ unusual_suspect
That doesn't sound like time wasting to us, just because someone hasn't arranged to meet you within two weeks of becoming your friend doesn't make them time wasters? If they had arranged to meet you and never turned up then you could call them timewasters.

I think perhaps it's that kind of attitude that makes people reluctant to meet.
As a single female, I don't have to meet anyone I don't like the sound of in emails, don't like the look of, are out of my age range, too far away - same as everyone else does! But it is harder for single females.
Some, and I repeat SOME, men (and couples) expect your mobile and msn in the first email or a meet that night or the next day!
My answer is always the same - NO! Unfortunately, not everyone knows the meaning of this small word.
If by exchanging a few emails on here first makes me a timewaster, then fine! If wanting to have a first meet and not jump into bed with you there and then makes me a time waster - fine!! Just because I am on a swingers site does not make me a sure thing or desperate!
Things crop up that you can't control in all our lives - it doesn't make us timewasters, it makes us human! If you don't like it - then this is probably not the place for you!

lol usual suspect id definetly be a timewaster in your book, most of my meets have taken much longer than two weeks to arrange. As has been said before this would be open to abuse especially if people had fallings outxxkarenx |

i think a person can take as long as they like to chat/swop emails/msn and the likes before they meet up with some one, if they want to do that for months on end that is there business, tho i do get board myself after 20-30 emails and its getting no where, but if that what the other person thinks it takes to make sure they are comfy and have picked the right partner for them then so be it, i have had cples and single guys call me a timewaster for saying "no thanks" to them straight away, witch strangely enough i think telling them straight away stops them wasting there time, go figure, also had a single girl do similar because i didn't respond to a wink she sent me, also have one cple, close to where i live, who have sent me the same copied and pasted email about 15 times, the 1st 3 or 4 times i replied with a no thanks, then started to ignore the emails, then got a proper nasty email of them calling me a time waster, ignorant, its people like you that give us all a bad name etc etc, i ignored it then a few weeks later the same copied and pasted emails started again.
but no, i think a name and shame section just wouldn't work at all, you have to make your own judgement on people, and if and when you get it wrong then put it down to experience |

seriously tho i remember a old site i was on many many years ago that had a name and shame board and people was putting up people they had met who didn't have sex with them and alsorts, to me if i meet someone and theyn decide not to play with me i dont class them as a time waster just because i didnt float their boat, seems some do tho |

to be honest we dont have the time or inclination to get in to e mail tennis and keep up long dialogues with people in the hope we might be compatible, not when you can to any club and have great sex the same night, we are young fit friendly and up for it,looking for same, enough said, we are not really looking for long term friendship, we already have lots of friends, but wouldnt call anyone who likes to take more time than we do a timewaster, a timewaster in our eyes is someone who arranges to meet and lets you down at very last minute or doesnt call at all with any explanation, no there should not be a name and shame policy, but should be a complaints policy where say 5 verified people complain about same person independently to admin of site that person be removed, or named, |

In my opinion, there's timewasters and there's wannabes:
Someone telling you they wanna meet - then keep you hanging on for 6 months to a year while they "try to make up their mind" or "try to sort a few things" while you observe them meeting others are wannabes. Just tell me NO, I can handle rejection - I know i'm not everyone's cup of tea.
Time-wasters on the other hand DO arrange to meet you then either cancel on you time after time (at the last time, ie, same day) or never turn up and never contact you and usually, offer no apology.
One lady I went to meet in Cheltenham had me waiting at the station from 2.45pm to 7.45 pm when I got last train back to London - only to text me at 10.10pm to say she had a problem with her phone (no landline? couldn't come find me?) but still didn't apologise.
Another lady I went to see in Newcastle was doubting me the whole 4 or so hors on the train checking I was really coming as she "didn't appreciate timewasters". Eventually when I got there she didn't pick up her phone either - I stayed on the platform 2 hrs then headed back to London. She phoned 2 days later that "something came up".
As for a name-and-shame wall/thread, I wouldn't say its a stupid idea, it however unworkable and open to abuse. Who verifies what information is true and what is fiction? |

I have recently played email tennis with a couple and I offered loads of opportunities for a meeting to occur and i got nothing back, it seemed like i was sending 2-3 messages to their one.
So I eased off a bit and didn't send anything and they come back saying they assumed I had met someone else as I hadn't messaged them recently.
Then the tennis continued until finally I have told em forget it, gone on too long too many missed opprotunities.
In my opinion timewaster.
The funny thing is it states on their profile they don't like timewasters....
oh dear. |

If they did I would nominate the origniator of this thread as a timewaster, having read through the profile of what should be like minded people I found it full of shouting, and even threats of violence, definetely not they type of people I want to meet so my time reading the profile was totally wasted.
Yep as people have said it is each persons definition of timewasting and this has been one example which many would find unjust but mud sticks, the name and shame threads some sites have are totally open to abuse, there are generally 2 sides to every story. |

"still is class as time wasters in my book"
And that proves the point as to why name and shame would never work. 2 people, with both what they perceive a perfectly valid definition of timewaster but worlds apart. |
