I'm Getting Real Tired

I'm Getting Real Tired


Of this new IM "feature"......

The freaking thing signs me on automatically every time I sign in, and apparently sometimes when I click on my email, or other odd times it does it as well. It use to just do that if I logged in on my cell phone, now it does it if I'm on my laptop!

Is this supposed to be a good thing? Cause I think it sucks!!

IF I wanted to go on the IM I can damn well do it when I feel like doing it, not when A*F*F feels like doing it for me!!!

Is this annoying anyone else or is it just me?.........lol


WTF.........

I just hate that when I am not really on some may consider it rude of me not to respond. I try to tell them I am not on 24/7 even if it appears that way.

Find that it happens all the time here. I just found that if I leave the computer on at all after I log off the site, it will keep me logged in as being on, so have to shut the computer off whenever i'm leaving it for awhile. Only stumbled on to this a little while back when was on another computer that was logged in on a friends account and it still showed me as being online.
Anyway, is just another one of the tricks in the bag of many that these sites have adopted to keep it looking like there are more users online than really are and same with the IM, makes it look as though there are more there and open for chat than there really is, etc............

That's what aggravates me, I'll be reading an email or a blog and lo and behold I'll see my IM button magically slid over and I am now on the IM.

So I slide it back over to busy. Ugh....the "improvements" on this site are not always so welcome.

I agree and that's another reason I don't like it. When I would sign in on my cell I really didn't see that I had IM's. This new feature, I can see that I have them, but I may not feel like chatting at the moment and then slide it to busy and feel a tad bad.

Maybe A*F*F is trying to guilt us into chatting......lol

Yes..this site has all kinds of glitches going on. I have heard of the one you mention as well. I once had someone text me and ask if I was on and I wasn't, but they told me that my profile still said I was.

I agree it is all their marketing ploys to make the site look better....but it seems like we're all on to them.....lol

So I hear, I am a gold member...but don't really go on the IM. I do hear all the complaints though about the problems.

I think they most likely want more members to go gold, or to buy points to do the "activities". Either way they are lining their pockets with $$.

I bet site support wasn't real helpful with it, they most likely say they are working on it and then nothing happens.

I guess I'm lucky I live where I live.
The highly measured personalities
that generally pervade the site locally
makes this a no issue issue.
And here I always thought popularity
was a good thing.
Sorry for your grief.

Using more than all the road!

From what your describing hun it sounds like maybe it's just on the cell phones as when I'm on my computer I don't see anything like that. Being on phone on the site sucks big time.. I hope you figure it out soon..

Seduce the mind and see what a wonderful adventure the body will take you on..

It's just one of those annoying little glitches that we all experience on this site occasionally I suppose.

I don't consider myself popular....I just think all women are, so the minute one logs into the IM....the messages start.....lol.

That's great if one is interested in chatting, but if not....then being logged on to the IM without your permission so to speak, is just annoying.

I very rarely go on the site, on my cell phone, and if I do I click on the link to use the full web version. If you use their app version or whatever it is....that's when you get logged in to IM automatically.

This has just started occurring when I'm on my laptop. It's just annoying, but I'll live....lol I just slide the switch to busy if I don't feel like chatting.

Just another A*F*F glitch we deal with sometimes...

Well technically I am logged into the IM, but it is the site doing it to me automatically.

But I have read about all kinds of glitches with the IM....so this is just another one.

Maybe one day they will make actual improvements that work......lol

You may be right....I think they do try to do things to get men to commit to an upgraded membership.

I do not like it either when it shows I am on IM but am not as I never use it at all..I wish they had not linked it on.I ignore it when I see when others want to talk to me on it.

Wouldn't it be nice if the MenNation.com honchos would just read a few of the blogs and realize that their ship is sinking? There are so many things that this site does wrong. Could you imagine if this site was for a company that sold candles? The only thing that keeps them in business is that we all enjoy the sex stuff on here. Otherwise, we wouldn't tolerate it and they would have been out of business long ago!

Cum follow my blog and feel free to leave a comment. It's what makes the chat interesting!

I'm glad it's not just me that's annoyed....lol

I really don't use the IM either, many times the opening lines of the men from there are as bad as the ones you get in emails. I learned that by the very, very few times I looked at it.

I just turn the little switch to busy if it magically turns on.

It would be nice, and you would think that they would take a few cues from their members in the blogs commenting on the annoying aspects of this site.

I guess they bank on the concept that sex sells and just run with that. But how much more $$ could they rake in if things actually worked right and more people were willing to shell out the money for gold memberships.

I bet many don't because they see all the complaints and figure.....why bother!
