What advice would you give to a newbie?

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

One piece of advice I was given that's served me well, anyone who's been here over 4 months with no veris ever, is unlikely to ever meet. They just like the chat and fantasy of it. Or camming.

To a newbie?

"Don't take the site too seriously and don't let the buggers get you down".

It's pixels on a screen - be yourself and be respectful and f**k what others think

Rants on the forum are highly unlikely be read by your target audience

Off the grid

My advice would be - it's easier to pull in a nightclub. If you accept that and are still happy to stay here, then that's all good and peachy.

Oh - and don't blame others for your misfortune (eg "all these timewasting single guys ruining it for us genuine guys" bobbins - take ownership of your own success rather than use others as an excuse!

Just use the forums for a laugh and the events pages to checknstuff going on.

If you want to actually meet genuine people in your first 4 months go to a club it's easier.

Take little notice of verifications (or lack of).

If your sex life is better as a single man in real life, continue there - it will probably save you a lot of effort and stress.

I got my first veri after 5 months

Nearly 9 months before I got my first veri. Utilise your time well and get yourself known for all the good reasons. Be enthusiastic without being crude, have a half decent profile with a selection of pics. A sense of humour always helps and as in the immortal words of Shag, you need patience
