Guests not being named in Events

March 08 2013

I remember a time when the names of 'guests' were also published to the public when they registered for events. I understand this was often taken advantage of, with people using it to self promote their profiles. These members often had no intent of going to the event.I have noticed that at many of the more social nights organised for Perth, there's been an abundance of women and not the expected turn out of men. I have heard a lot of people claim that's because the list of those going appears to be "a cock fest".I have been a paying member for years, so this has never been a problem for me.I'm raising this point because I was messaged today by a guy who said he'd never met someone from here, even for a coffee. I suggested the events, and he was under the belief there would be 100 men to every woman. From what I have experienced, a lot of women enjoy the 'safety in numbers' of meets and greets, so they are well represented.

freogirl that surprises me as most of the parties that I have attended in Sydney have had an abundance of single men. I think that this is deliberate by the party organisers as the single guys have to pay a fee to attend. The more single guys, the more profit. I have never met anyone fron here even for a coffee either and another member who I met at a meet and greet night, suggested events to me as well. I am glad he did as I find them enjoyable and a safe environment in which to have some fun. All party organisers have a no means no policy so they are quite safe for women to attend as well.

I'd like to see more women pay up and then their names too will show up in the lists. I've been paid up most of my time on RHP, am not currently but I'm not interested in attending events unless I know the person posting the event. Maybe your post will help make some difference to the listings.Peachy

I had a meet and greet down in Mandurah at my art exhibiton, we had the place to ourselves mostly those from rhp put a red dot on their hand. I was mostly women I went to two others and again , mostly women I do not get that, all the guys put their names down then never show up. I think thats being lazy and it says, I will turn up for a fuck but not just to say hello first. WA does have a shit load of men, but they do not put their money where there mouth is and turn up for a non sexual meet and greet event. guys if only you realised that lots of very sexy ladies turn up to these events. People always think that women get a ton of men on rhp but that is not always the case. Reason is that most women would rather meet a person in a social setting first, before they jump in the sheets with you so guys Man up and go.

a paid member but at the time of posting Im not - just flat out right now. Anyway as a guest I cant see any of whos regsitered for an event nor can I see where an event that Im actually interested in is being held so.........................not seeing a point in even looking at events as a guest. They seem to be coming something solely for paid members. I must clarify, I have not registered an interest in an event as a guest so not sure if my ability to see location is changed if I do register interest but as someone who doesnt drive knowing a suburb would greatly assist me in deciding whether I can actually attend an event easily or not. I did however find, as a paid member, that I would get messages and flirts from people who had registered an interest in the same event. I would poliely tell them if theyre that keen on meeting me then I will see them at "x event"...strangely I havent met any of them yet. Whod a thunk it? Kisses Focus

I have spoken to a lot of men who have put their names down, with the intent to go to events, but bail at the last moment believing there wont be any women.I'd like to see women pay as well, and think it would solve a lot of issues, but in the meantime I think even paying members would like to see what guests are attending.

Tuscan, men don't turn up in the belief that as a single male they turn up & find they are in the total majority. Normally there is a fee for single men,why should we pay for a start & if so ,should there not be a numbers limit.

Throw my 5 cents in here. If it was not for meet and greets andattending events I would not of met the fabulous people I know now. There are people I now call friends for live. Freo is my sister from another mother and her point is very valid. If you say your going to attend the event you should attend it. If not let them know that you are not going to attend. People look at the event list to see whose attending as they like to know who to look for. Meet and greets can be hit and miss but at least you are not hiding behind a computer. Every one I have met has been friendly and nice. Sure you will not like every one but the is just life. Just saying

I've been to other non RHP events where a lot of people RSVP attendance and only a handful turn up. So, I assume there won't be any difference for a RHP event. Guys pulling out because they think there are too many men there are most probably making excuses for not attending. Then again, haven't been to one so no idea if the ratio of men to women in skewed towards men.
