I am sure there is an option that allow you to block particular sexes or couples, as well as making you invisible in their search. There are many people using it. I am not sure exactly how to get to the setting though. I think maybe try 'edit profie' and look for 'privacy'.

I think it's a lot of energy to spend worrying about something that's not that important ... to me at least :) Block, delete, ignore. There are plenty of options available already.

Get over it. Good on them for trying, just reply that you are not interested with a polite template and move on. It's not that hard!

Or with one simple tick of a box...the whole conundrum could be avoided. That's what we're trying to get across in our post.We've been on rhp for 2 years now. And are just getting over "blocking/deleting/ignoring".. Quoting 'brave__heart' I think it's a lot of energy to spend worrying about something that's not that important ... to me at least :) Block, delete, ignore. There are plenty of options available already.We've looked for the 'privacy' setting...maybe we're just not seeing it : /Were you able to locate this setting?.. If not, could you direct us to these "people" using it?Quoting 'Dieselnoi' I am sure there is an option that allow you to block particular sexes or couples, as well as making you invisible in their search. There are many people using it. I am not sure exactly how to get to the setting though. I think maybe try 'edit profie' and look for 'privacy'.

Yes. . its a good idea. Until people change 'single' on their profile to 'attached' or otherwise just to avoid being blocked, promoting more dishonesty. One block at a time does take longer. . but then you are blocking an individual person for an exact reason instead of blocking EVERYONE who hapens to be single (or any other reason, e.g location). The chat room is fun (when its not lagging!!) and if someone simply wants to chat to you in there and they cant because theyre single, its not exactly fair. There are a few 40-50 and plus year olds i talk to, and they know im not interested, but i wont block all 50+ year olds - just the creepy ones that hit on me and dont take no for an answer! Im not looking for someone from another state, but i still talk to nice/normal/friendly people :)

the amount of creepy messages, random friend requests, and flirts is just so off putting..its hard enough to go through the contact you get from people you are looking for without having to look at things you arent looking for.it would be a great idea, but then again, they wouldnt like to put it in, because they'd lose half of the trafic through here.

We totally agree, as it just seems that some people just look at the pics and forget to read the profile. We all should have the option to block whoever.

You really can't complain about Single Guys contacting you even though you have stated that in your profile.You have several friends that are Single Guys & you do state your friends list are people you've met or are going to.

Share an observation with our little discussion group. The OP has put to our little group they are definitely not interested in single men. I get that, and I might add I respect that, we are all here for ourselves so to speak. But I ask to the op, do you agree, noting that I am the owner of a single mans profile, that it could be misinterpreted by other single men, that viewing their profile - as I see you have viewed mine - as an indirect form of expressing interest??

Mmm we have requested several times that this site give its paid members more control of who sees and makes contact with their profile. We would like to block "non verified" profiles for example. Tired of profiles contacting us that we are not looking for or who are keen as mustard to meet until we ask for contact over the phone......gone !,, Time wasting picture collecting fakes or dare we say , Site generated profiles. Surry hills or Darling point seem to feature a lot. This site is not interested in group blocking because it's the members photos that sell paid memberships to majority of single guys , not all let us say but a fair percentage. Simply put , If paid single profiles ( mainly single guys , as singles girls are generally guests ) were blocked from majority of couples and large amount of single girl profiles and could only see basically non verified single girl profiles! how long would they continue to pay the $$$ ? Although, there may be an dramatic increase in non verified "paid "single girl or couples profiles appear to get around the blocking issue. So we suggest If they made blocking options available only to paid verified members , this might increase their paid membership whilst increasing the sites credibility overall, maybe ? But we have asked that the site to reward verified financial members with more profile control ! They are not interested unfortunately.

However we all experience views, messages, flirts, friend requests from people who dont match our criteria. Believe me when I say couples are just as likely to not read a profile fully and ignore the warning message that comes up and still send me flirts and messages - many do not look past the pics and (in my case) the fact that I am a bisexual female. A polite but firm thanks but no thanks more often than not works in this instance. If I mass blocked couples (as I am not interested in them) or groups (again not interested) then I may miss out on some of the great conversations I have with people who's profiles are as such. Not all contact from these are wantning to meet but can be about something I have posted in the forums and they dont wish to say their views, as a question publicly. I take it as a compliment that these people wish to look at my profile. The only time I block is if they become a prolific pain and constantly send messages or filrts trying to change my mind. This is used as a last resort after other actions like a polite decline or ignoring them doesnt work. Kisses Focus

There's a little drop-down thingy to the right hand side at the top of the list of messages where you can get it to show Matching or Non Matching and it'll filter out based on whatever age/gender/marital status you've got in your Looking for bit at the top of the profile. Flick it to Non-Matching and it's easy enough to hit the Select All tick-box at the top of the list on the left hand side and click Delete.xx Sarah

on another site .... there is the option you can choose, that allows you to only receive winks/flirts from thos who meet your preferences...ie, gender/age group. this would help here as well....we'd certainly us it.

You can set up a template reply and when they're all ticked before you delete them you can select it from the Template reply drop down to inform them all that they're receiving a mass-mailed message to advise you're deleting their message without having read it because they didn't match your preferences.That could be considered snarky tho, and maybe you wouldn't want the self-appointed Snarcotics Squads of the forums knowing you'd do such a thing... heheexx Sarah

We are with Hebe1. We would like to see only those that meet our LOOKING FOR criteria be able to view our profile. We have no hesitation in blocking, we think are we looking for that....nope block if they are not freindly.

Yes, being able to block people based on their gender or member type may sound good on paper and while we trust that most men will move on from profiles they cannot view, many others will simply create an extra account (you guessed it, a female or couple account) to circumvent the block. I don't think it's a complexity our website needs when it's hard enough for most of our users to work out who's who sometimes.It may be annoying to get unwanted messages from people you are not interested in but please use the 'non-matching' filter to remove them if they get too much. Most people take heed of the pop-up that appears to warn users that they are trying to message someone they shouldn't but you'll always get the one or two tenacious people who will give it a crack, even if a mass block option was available.

Whilst I do agree, surely though a couple seeking other couples and not single men would make a point of only viewing couples to avoid this?? Or is my head sitting somewhere painfull? :)

Or is my head sitting somewhere painfull? :) having a 'perve', which is something most of us will have done.....isnt an invitation. we look at singles, women and men, and couples, even groups....just to have a 'look'...even tho we are seeking guys only primarily... looking isnt an invite, and to take it as such is way too keen, and more than a little assumptive. ...... having to 'avoid' looking isnt something you can suggest... our profile says no 'married/attached' and no 'under 35's'....how can we stop them looking? they dont hurt us when they do....and we dont take their 'looks' as invites...

I know that, on occasion, I have looked up a person's profile to get a better idea of who they are before responding to a question they may have posted. In this way I may be able to be more insightful and tailor my comments to be more relevant to the individual. I know that many of our regular forum contributors do this, some more than others. If you activate a group block, this won't be possible for many of us. You may see this as a good thing, I don't know. Just something to think about. Quick question, ...if you block someone, are you still able to view them?

Well first of all...we have ONLY two. One of which is a COUPLE and he can't change his status. ( We know this...because we have been involved with them for a while now). AND the other guy is a single male WE MET AT A SWINGERS PARTY....there's a BIG difference. ;)(he also brought TWO hot single females...to that swingers party.So there goes your point. Quoting 'devilishdesires' You really can't complain about Single Guys contacting you even though you have stated that in your profile.You have several friends that are Single Guys & you do state your friends list are people you've met or are going to.

The only time we are viewing a single males profile...is to block them for viewing ours or clicking their name in the "real time info" not knowing they are a single male :S....or to see other bs they have posted on others forum posts..You're a perfect example.....viewed your profile to block you and for the latter ;)But your getting off subject...this post is more just an opinion about whether rhp should implement a "mass control option" for users to block whoever they wish...and that very generally.

My rules for contacting profiles, and maybe this is why I quick to assume things. I don't ever contact couples, as they will contact me if they're interested, I definitely am guilty of having a perv but nothing more. Single ladies, well, that just depends on the profile and their compatibility to what I'm looking for. I assume no reply will be forthcoming, and if there is all good. My points are based upon these rules of engaging those on a more personal basis. And I agree that having a look is far from an invitation, but that, I think will always be open to interpretation by individuals. I also think that a mass block as others have raised will only encourage others to create a different profile. Bringing it back to square one. Where's the point of it then??

i view all sorts of profiles..some to perve on . some to see what and how different people word their profiles,,people are for every saying profile needs improving ,so i browse and take notes .i very rarely send messages now unless ive had a reply from flirt ,then it still taking a chance..it doesnt matter who contacts me.male female tranny i am happy to chat but im straight to point that im only into females and theres been no problem from anyone with that..we''ll all adults,well most of use are so why not act like one..show a bit of respect to people.. im pretty sure if you tell them to fuck for having look at your profile and showing bit of interest ,their going to thing of some really nasty names to call you..

This could be very simple. Drop down menu, 'add new profile screen'.Select the profile types, ages, and what you want to screen out, could be just the viewing of your profile, or could be messages/flirts, but could also add in things like chat rooms, friend requests, verifications, validations, pics, etc etc.Example:Profile type______age________chat______searchable______viewprofile ____etcetcetcMen____________35-99_______Y__________N_____________N_____Men____________18-35_______N__________N_____________N_____Women_________45-99_______Y__________N_____________Y______Women_________18-45_______Y__________Y_____________Y______Couples_________18-45_______Y__________Y_____________Y______Groups__________18-99_______Y__________N____________N______

I find it hilarious that you think that...because every couple we have met wished they got into this at our age...and i mean EVERY couple.Quite frankly i think you've just had your ego bruised and are now lashing out....(probably because you get shut down all the time by young couples such as ourselves)Not only are you missing the point....your completely going off topic. This is merely a "poll question" to quite simply just block the masses of people you would not like to talk too. That's it. And if u can't handle that....then maybe your the one that should do some growing up sunshine. ;)Oh...and i read your profile..just to get a sense of why you feel the need to come on here and be rude like you have. The people with raunchy photos on their profile probably block you for the simple fact they aren't attracted to you.. so what's the point in talking? Is that not what the major part of this site is for? to be attracted to people?...and then have fun sexual encounters?...or is it to have meaningless conversations with people you do not want to talk to?Also...what makes you think we don't go out and have fun/enjoy life? haha. You act as if this is all we do with our time? classic single male response.Anyway, this forum post was supposed to be a friendly and simply light hearted attempt at seeing who agreed with blocking those you did not wish to talk to....ya know...to avoid the hassle.But then you just had to go and throw insults around. Wonder who the mature one is. Perhaps your the one that needs to get off the site and do some growing up. Your clearly a detriment to the meaning "laid back" and "easy going". By the way, grammar is a trait that many find sexy. Take it easy sweet pea.

Your just like all the other males that have posted. And quite frankly your all just backing up this posts point. Can't post anything nice or polite. Go straight to insults and go completely off the topic....."being glad we live in a country with broadband and computers"???? wtf is that?We're not trying to insinuate we aren't grateful for the life we live . And you have completely nullified the idea of a "few males sending a flirt".For future reference. Maybe just a "yes" or "no" as the insight of your opinion instead of "harden up".I do find it funny though how alot of the males feel they need to defend themselves (the older gentlemen too)....when all i put across in this post is how the option of a "category block" might make things simpler for some.... Quoting 'nameisinuse' There's a lot more things to be worrying about, just be glad you live in a country with broadband and computers, life's a lot tougher than worrying about a few guys taking the piss out of you by sending a flirt.
