Hey how do you know if they like you or just being nosey like me, lol

That's OK. They can be nosey back.

Is that why I haven't had a message back Mountainbreeze about invite. ☹ lol

Thought about this and I think it could give mixed messages to people when all they want to do is put a face to a name. Only my PO don't know what other people think.

I've been doing very much the same, looking at people who are going to an event in order to hopefully recgonise them. Amasing how may have now looked back!!! Jopo if Mountainbreeze was going by how you look in your profile he certainly wouldn't of accepted me.Just didn't want to do the, what appears to be normal, outdoor or posed photo.

Hi All. Well, mixed opinions here ...

I have spent the weekend chewing it over. I think overall it is more useful than not. MB I am sure if people are organising something then it is understandable that potential joiners will check you out, and you check them out back. Besides you have a great profile pic so no need to hide! (I had to pick one with sunglasses so that I didn't have to airbrush out the wrinkles.) Some sites have a "wink" feature. Is this a useful idea?

I'm the same, nosey plus putting a face to the name, but I also look at the person profile to see what interests they have ie walking, climbing, bike riding etc

I look at peoples profiles all to time to see who has written something, there are so many people on here, Its difficult to match the name to a face sometime. Not all the profile names are obvious which sex you are also, unlike me, I'm not that original! When you use facebook the face or profile are shown at the side of your comment, so you have a better idea. I enjoy reading some of the comments on here, they can be really funny. Its a good indication of the type of people who use this site - those with good senses of humour and like to enjoy life. Looking forward to meeting up with some of you soon

It's usually a names to faces thing with me as well, when reading the great forum threads and seeing if anyone's posted anything new in the photo gallery. All great features of a great site. Not sure you need a wink button- an introductory email shows more of a genuine interest I think

Miles LOL thats hilarious....

Smart feature. Brings the service to life. I think mixed messages are half the fun. It's just a shame that we don't have a better and more friendly attitude to dating in this country.

do you not think how you view this service -- outdoor club? -- friendship group -- or dating service -- which ever having the ability to view other members is a usful facility. How many of us have ever been on a hill with people they would rather not be, I have. So far I have not met or chatted with anyone, ,male or female who I would not be honoured to spend a few hours in natures gym with ...

sorry folks the above statement should say ... male or female who I would be honoured to spend a few hours in natures gym ... senior moments are coming early

Still chuckling over the comment by Milesbehind. Top comment!

MB - you naughty girl!

How about we go all Italian. Guys get a 'Pinch Bottom' button and girls get a 'Flirty Glance' button?

Though I think I agree with Mountainbreeze. If you are not man enough (or woman enough) to send a hello e-mail then its unlikely you'll pluck up the courage to actually meet someone.

Mb if you (or any of the ladies on this site) do that I am going to join a monastry .. what a waste it would be ... lots of beautiful people on here and I don't just mean looks

I had put the B as a small B for you but from now on your No.1 ...

on second thoughts would it not be poss to change your name to just plain old moneypenny (not that there is anything old about you, of course) can't remember the name of Ursula Andress character but you could have that as well

on third thoughts I think Moneypenny would not suit you she was a little to plain ... have to watch some Bond DvD's just to find a suitable Bond girl for you ... don't know you to pick a villain

OP you mean to say that if one of the lovely ladies on this site turned up with an all over golden tan it would not make your pulse race ... mine certainly would, I can think of at least 3 who I would have to have cardiac massage for ... EJ
