44% My Fat Arse!

16 Aug, 09 - 31 Comments.

Geez, how gullible was I, getting out the credit card and signing up for this joint? 44% women, 44% men, 12% couples, 0% fakes? 100% bullshit by the looks of it...

I did a quick head count this arvo. Three real, live women within spitting distance (yes, I can hock a logey quite some way! Charming, yes?) logged in today, opposed to no less than twenty blokes. Yup, them sure are good odds. Couples? Some time during the week. Maybe I'm not real good at doing the math, but something isn't quite adding up there.

Sure, there's quite a few profiles belonging to women on here, but it takes not quite three whole search pages to reach the point where they've not logged on in more than thirty days. Call me skeptical, but I wouldn't put money on those particular ladies ever coming back again.

Now, don't go thinking I'm complaining. I know it's nobody's fault but my own that I experienced some sort of brain-fade when I opened my wallet. I would only like to know one thing...

Which part of Australia is it where the women outnumber men by about a squillion to one to make up that 44% average? Let me know, I may well have to consider relocating...

Cheers,

Harry...

    In short, SYDNEY.
    As for the rest of your blog, man..it's Sunday. Most members have been out partying their asses off all weekend, spending the day woozy from a killer hangover, it was 28 degrees outside today so the perfect spot to recover was in a hammock catching a tan at the same time! That's my weekend summed up. Sorry for not being online!!! :P

    Hmmm, i believe you are calling FF management liars. Feel free to click back thru every member on the site and do a head count. I'm quite sure you'll find the numbers correct - infact i'm positive you will. Although i am not managament, i do have an understanding of how the system works here. Its all automated - there's no way the ratio of men to women can become inbalanced - unless computers forget how to add up.
    Did you expect some srt of a meat market? Did you expect to snap your fingers and have women throw themselves at your feet? Does that happen in "the real world".... if so...why are you here? Dude, dont kid yourself. You've got to put in a little effort. Search profiles, send messages, ivite potential matches to a chat.... even if they havent been online for a little while - and delete this blog before the women see what a whining bitch you are... or behaving like.

    Men log in more often than women, skewing the daily stats. Call the cops. We are 50/50.

    I'm sorry, I must have missed you at the Sexual Trivia night, a perfect opportunity to meet new people on here and have some fun, Have not seen you in chat. Where did you plan to meet these ladies? It takes very little effort to introduce yourself and make some friends. Suck it up, grow up and enjoy life..

    Hullo again,

    Firstly, I thought I would just add a comment to the end of the queue, rather than addressing you all individually. After all, it's not like there's a wide range of differing opinions on offer so far. :o)

    @ Tish: Quite true, before I posted this message, I think I'd received a grand total of one single, solitary hit - and that was from a bloke to boot!

    Yet doesn't that make my point quite nicely? I'm well aware that there's many guys out there who are hotter than I, or fitter, wealthier or smarter, all "competing" for page views from the much smaller number of women who log in each day. And that's without taking into account criteria such as age and location, which seem to be given more weight when it comes to searches, etc..

    @ Moreplay & Krysp: I'm sure the day when women will need to wonder "Is there a man for me on the internet?" is still a very long way off.

    I'm sure there is a lovely community here, but really, isn't that what Facebook's for?

    And lastly,

    @Nux & Tryit : No, I wasn't calling anyone a liar, that'd be rude. But I do think the whole ratio thing is disingenuous, just a gimmick, something that other sites don't have. A well managed and properly pruned database doesn't equate to having an active group of users in the same proportions.

    But hey, it doesn't matter all that much really, does it? As you all say, it's just a bit of fun. It's only a website, and I'll probably be gone in three months anyway, right?

    cheers,
    Harry..

      Yeh Harry u make a good point regarding the pruned database - the "claim" your refuting doesn't say anything about active user does it? Just says the membership ratio. Maybe this deepth of thought would have been useful needed b4 you wrote this blog. Yeah shame you didnt think b4 as your own words now defeat your arguement. Atta boy Harry - you on fire!!! U will have knocking down your door!! LOL

      Actually there is another lesson in all of this for you. I can see a lot of the regulars have commented and have shown their passion for FF. I wonder why they so passionate about it - maybe it works?

    I'll add my 2 cents though I want change back. Nux I"m the theory person don't steal my bit. Mp your hot :D Harry I joined here not to "hook up" more out of curiosity to whom like me was in my area. I joined the chat and met some great people to the point where some of them are now on my MSN and Facebook even though I haven't actually met them in real life. Any good PR guy will tell you have to sell the product in order to get buyers, Come talk to us in chat we don't bite we're alot of fun and sometimes Diver gets naked or falls asleep (yeah I had to put that in)you only get as much out of here as you put in. theres my 2 cents now give me my change.

    LOL, look at us slabs of meat trying to have a civilised conversation with Harry, the supermarket shopper. There's no reasoning with this neanderthal, I think it's best we just jump back on our shelves and hold our breath that someone as charming as him SELECTS US to toss into his trolley.
    Pffffffffffft, that's enough attention on him.
    Pchoo Pchoo

      g'day Hella,

      Truly, I am sorry if I gave any such impressions. I thought I was quite careful to only comment on the business involved, rather than the people who use the site. Perhaps there's more to be read between the lines than I could possibly have imagined.

      Certainly, if I'd realised that I was going to give the impression that I'm a neanderthal, whiney cheap assed, simple minded, english bitch dick sook, perhaps I would have chosen my words more carefully...

      cheers,
      Harry...

    I agree with Hella..............Harry you are gettin far too much attention. You are like many of the naughty kids I teach who seek attention albeit negative as long as its attention so lets concentrate rather on the awesome people who certainly do deserve all our attention.

    I'm new to this community. Just passing through. But it seems like FF indeed has a loyal member base. I might pay up and pitch camp for awhile. You're all welcome to borrow a cup of sugar.

    I'm thinking what you're trying to tell me is "tough titties", right? But quoting Hippocrates, isn't that a bit deep? :o)

    Not a Pitbull, more a loyal Labrador, or faithful guide dog... Broadening the world of the blind. (or just those with their eyes closed)

      :O) "Loyal" is certainly a keyword here. Oodlum (and whomever else might be toiling away behind the scenes) has done his homework and crafted a site which obviously has strong appeal to the faithful.

      It's a shame that it's so infrequently visited by people from my area...

      cheers,
      Harry..

    Well was an interesting way to get yourself noticed on the site, and pick up, lol.

    And now all the women in your area know for sure that they will be paying for their own coffee should anyone find your complaining a turn on.

    Gday Harry,

    You're forgiven, I guess..
    Us members have to be forgiven too for reading your blog and getting the impression that you're all those things and more. I've been a member here for over a year now and not once has the business aspect of the site crossed my mind. That old adage, "Don't judge a book by it's cover" has never been more applicable than right now. :)

    I'd like to catch up with you in the chatrooms Harry. Allow me to show you why I've remained a loyal member of this site. And I might even get you to show me your gunz! hehe.

    Welcome to the FF family! :)

    Greetings...
    I debated with myself whether to add to this thread while going through it...yes!!..I talk to myself sometimes!!..lol. I think there's something to learn from every single experience, and we all attract everything we get in some way or another, directly or indirectly. So it's not just for Harry who perhaps in a momentary lapse of intelligence decided to express his dissatisfaction with F/F, without consideration for the feedback, I think we all need to consciously attract the things we want. Like Tish said, positive vibes will attract positive vibes back to you.

    I have been on sites like these on and off for the past 6-7 years, with varying degrees of 'hooking up', for the lack of a better description. But you know what, I realised that I got exactly what I attracted, which was true connections with other people. I am still friends with some people I met on another 'sex' site 6 years ago, I go to their kids birthday parties, we meet just to see eachother, the focus is no longer on sex, it's on the person.

    I'm only new on F/F, so I can't claim to be loyal in any way...one thing I can say is after lurking in the chat room(yes I know, guilty as charged) for a couple of hours last night, I found that there's a real community here, not just on Facebook, etc...right here. That is thanks to many who have replied to this thread, as I recall some of you in the room last night.

    So I say...careful what you put out there, what you're attracting, because you WILL definitely get it..

    Much Love,
    ebs
