DOVER, N.H. — Devin Moisan's October 8 auction was chock-full of goodies. Lots of interesting jewelry, silver and a very fine assortment of Scheier pottery, along with paintings, furniture and "dishes."
Edwin and Mary Scheier are well known nationally for their superb studio pottery. But in New Hampshire, especially in the Durham area, their wares are especially sought-after and treasured. This extraordinary couple spent 28 years at the University of New Hampshire, with Edwin teaching pottery and Mary as an artist in residence. Scheier pottery, both the utilitarian and the art pieces, were sold through the League of New Hampshire Craftsman stores across the state, but many local residents purchased beloved pieces directly from Mary and Edwin.
The Currier Gallery of Art hosted an exhibit in 1993 and I was fortunate to attend the artists reception, where I met and spoke with Edwin. A gracious, energetic and enthusiastic man, he was still throwing large pots at the age of 82 and appeared to enjoy every minute he could talk about and create pottery. Mary and Edwin were enjoying life in the Southwest and they lived well into their 90s. The lives and careers of this extraordinary couple are a true testament to longevity being connected to passion and creativity.
Auctioneer Devin Moisan said that half of the Scheier pottery consigned to him is from "away." However, a vase, signed and dated '66 that sold for $10,340 (a record for the auction company) was consigned from a Campton, N.H., resident. This vase, standing 20 inches tall, had a combination of glazes, starting with a volcanic dark brown glaze, then transitioning into a matte finish, then into a stylized, complicated sgraffito decoration. It just hummed with energy. This piece was purchased by noted dealer Joan Brownstein, who is known best for her specialty in American folk portraits and folk art. She has an artist's eye, not surprisingly because she is an artist, a painter. And she brings that skilled judgment to whatever she acquires, including Scheier pottery.
The most unusual Scheier piece was a fertility sculpture. Standing 24 inches tall, it had a grotto-like interior with a woman's figure as the focal point. The reverse had incised decoration of two figures embracing. A telephone bidder paid $6,613 for this piece.
Two sgraffito-decorated vases, one measuring 10 inches tall and the other 11 inches tall, illustrated the use of a matte glaze versus a high-gloss glaze and how the different glazes interacted with the stylized images of people used in a repeating pattern as decoration. The robin's egg blue high-gloss vase brought $5,405 from a phone bidder, underbid by Joan Brownstein. The pale grey blue matte glazed pot was fought over by two phone bidders until one succeeded at $4,140 There were 14 lots of Scheier pottery, and some sold for as little as $150, with most pieces selling in the $200 to $600 range. Devin said that there were three estates involved in putting together this collection. This sale was a good place to start a collection and provided a lesson in what advanced collectors search for in terms of form and decoration.
The auction started with 56 lots of gold and diamond jewelry, and on this Tuesday night, the gentlemen's accessories ruled. A Patek Philippe 18K gold man's wristwatch sold for $8,913.There were two attractive men's 14K gold and diamond rings. One had an approximately 11/3-carat diamond and it fetched $2,300. A few minutes later, the second ring with an approximately 2-carat diamond sold for $4,140 after heated bidding from the audience. Diamonds, not dogs, appear to be a man's best friend.
Two of the most interesting decorative objects in the sale had once been owned by Alexander R. Peacock, a business associate of Andrew Carnegie. Both men emigrated from Scotland and came to America to make their fortunes, which they did. And both men resided in, at the time, the world's richest neighborhood, Pittsburgh's East End. Unlike Carnegie, Andrew Peacock went bankrupt during the Depression and his large collection of artwork was dispersed. A pair of gilt-bronze elephant-form chenets and an Addison T. Millar oil painting titled "A Good Sword" once resided in Peacock's mansion. Moisan supplied a photograph with the chenets shown decorating the fireplace in the mansion. Both items sold well, as the chenets reached $4,600, and the small oil painting by Millar went to a phone bidder for $3,630.
Illustrating the eclectic nature of Moisan's auctions, there were two items that elicited strong interest but did not fit in the category of traditional antiques. Enough has been written about the lack of interest in and low prices of traditional midrange Americana. As the saying goes, the heart wants what it wants. A perfect illustration of this was a charming Hood Milk sign, enameled and decorated with the face of a sweet Holstein cow and in very good condition. During the preview, it was closely examined by two gentlemen. It brought $3,910 in the room against several phone bidders. The other lot, a Criterion oak cased music box together with 17 16-inch discs, sold for a very strong $2,300. The case was quite pretty, with an embossed decoration, and it retained what appeared to be original surface.
American folk portraiture was represented by two paintings. A large oil on canvas of three children standing before a staircase sold for $2,990 to a telephone bidder. One child was clutching a large doll, while the eldest child had a yellow bird perched on one finger. A watch and chain intertwined in tiny fingers, joined the eldest and youngest child. It was an unusual composition, and one can only guess at the intended symbolism. A charming miniature watercolor portrait of a young man, 5 by 6 inches, depicting him seated by a window and with an American ship in the distance, was attributed to Isaac Sheffield (1793–1845). It was a very good buy at $690, in spite of some minor condition issues.
After the sale, Moisan discussed the mechanics of putting together an auction every six weeks. Not an easy task but he has been auctioneering full time since May 1996 and has the connections to gather items of interest from New England estates and from folks downsizing as their lives change. And he gets consignments of niche items — such as the Scheier pieces in this sale — from across the United States. As with any successful auction company, more and more of the emphasis is on jewelry, silver, paintings and Twentieth Century decorative arts. Moisan has a reliable and experienced staff who work tirelessly to organize and keep the auction flowing. He is an engaging, seasoned and knowledgeable auctioneer, and he efficiently keeps the pace going while giving each piece its fair due. He takes great pride in his product; that product being fresh-to-the-market items, carefully researched and cataloged. A job well done for both consignor and buyer.
Prices reported include the buyer's premium. For information, www.moisan-inc.com or 800-493-1936.

Neither the alien or word "reddit" has to be in it, but it generally fits in better if they are. Clever or relevant variations on the standard logo are the best.
It looks better if the background is transparent. Plus this allows for custom themes and changing your header's color.
We suggest saving the logo as a PNG with RGB/sRGB, since this allows for transparency, lossless quality and helps GIMP users.
The default size is 120x40px, but you can make it bigger or smaller if you like. Logos which are too big may make your header too tall.

Progress Energy Florida Files Requests To Reduce Customer Rates
The Aug. 31 filing also included estimates for an increase in the cost of purchased power. Utilities routinely purchase power to ensure customers' energy needs are met in the most cost-effective manner possible.
The environmental compliance charge, filed Aug. 30, recovers the costs of environmental investments. Environmental improvements operating since May 2010 at the utility's two largest coal-fired units, Crystal River 4 and 5, now allow Progress Energy Florida to use less expensive coal while reducing average annual emissions at
the units by 80 percent; nitrogen oxides by approximately 93 percent and sulfur dioxide by approximately 97 percent.
The PSC hearings on the fuel, capacity, environmental and energy-efficiency charges will take place Nov. 5-7. The PSC will finalize Progress Energy's nuclear charge Nov. 20. At that time, the total 2013 customer bill will be determined.For more information about Florida rates and a detailed breakdown of a current residential customer bill, visit www.progress-energy.com/floridarates.

Culture Jam: Hijacking of Commercial Culture
Description: Follows the exploits of pranksters and artists who express their anti-corporate frustration, not with the violence that has marred worldwide protests, but with a slyer and arguably more subversive approach - culture jamming. From the large-scale mischief of the infamous Billboard Liberation Front to the grassroots protests of Grrlly Self-Publishing and The Church of Stop Shopping, these politically charged social critics voice their outrage in outrageous ways. The film chronicles an important moment in the evolution of consumer society - when people started talking back to the ads that surround them.

Robin Wright Penn: " I know what I don't want!"
Wednesday 12:47 PM, 19/08/2009
MILK star Sean Penn and his wife Robin Wright Penn have had a rocky relationship to say the least! They have been together since 1996 and have filed for divorce twice already, only to get back together and try again. The last time was in May this year, after Sean forgot to thank Robin while accepting his Oscar award. A few weeks later the couple announced they were trying again. Now Robin has gone public, saying this time it is her decision and she will never take Sean back again! She has filed for divorce, saying she is sure she doesn't want him in her life anymore. She is not even asking for child support! Looks like its for real this time. (Source: People)

Sean Penn Calls Off Divorce - AGAIN!
Monday 8:40 AM, 25/05/2009
Wow, its becoming hard to keep up with these two! Just last week Sean Penn and his wife Robin Wright Penn announced that they had filed for divorce for the second time in two years. But we have just heard that once again, they have decided to cancel the divorce and try again! Robin spent the week in Cannes as part of the jury there and she has been looking stunning and we have spotted her on the arm of one or two really handsome men, we think maybe Sean might have seen that too and realised he wants his lady back! We hope it works out this time! (Source: People)

Apparantly Natalie and Sean were caught making out just a few weeks after the Oscar ceremony and have been having an affair ever since! We thought Natalie was smarter than that! She could probably choose any man she wants, why go for a married man? (Source:Celebitchy)

The Red Carpet! Oscar Night Hits and Misses

This is the real reason we are interested in Oscar Night: the red carpet! Seeing who wore what and how well is always so exciting! We think Anne Hathaway looked simply elegant while Sofia Loren and Miley had a few too many frills! Everyone had their eyes on Brangelina and Jennifer Aniston, but Jen decided to skip the red carpet! Who do you think won in the style stakes?

U.S. Census Bureau Daily Feature For October 8
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Following is the daily "Profile America" feature from the U.S. Census Bureau:

Profile America — Monday, October 8th. This is National Fire Prevention Week — a time to look around the house with the idea of keeping the risk of fire to a minimum. It's also a good time to replace the batteries in your smoke detectors. Two of the worst fires in U.S. history broke out on this date in 1871. One was the famous fire in Chicago. The second fire that day was much worse, but has faded into history. A dry summer and high winds turned a forest blaze into a firestorm that jumped rivers, destroying the town of Peshtigo, Wisconsin, and 11 other communities, killing as many as 2,400 people. Across the U.S., there are just over 30,000 fire departments, and every 23 seconds one of them responds to a fire. Profile America is in its 16th year as a public service of the U.S. Census Bureau.Sources: Chase's Calendar of Events 2012, p. 496, 497, 498 Statistical Abstract of the United States 2012, t. 355 Profile America is produced by the Center for New Media and Promotions of the U.S. Census Bureau.

MIDA CEO says manufacturing is still the backbone of Malaysia
What new initiatives is MIDA currently involved in?
MAHMUD: We have been in this business for the last 45 years and the industrial development of the country has moved from strength to strength. So we are actually focusing more on high value activities and the knowledge-based economy, encouraging companies to look at new technologies, and in new growth areas. To name a few, we are actually promoting medical devices on the manufacturing front, life science related activities, aerospace, advanced materials, and also advanced chemicals and electronics. So those are the few areas in the manufacturing arena, not to forget the renewables, from equipment to services.
Talking about services, we are aligned to the new key economic areas, and a new economic model. On the services that we are promoting, from tourism related to specialized services, to aerospace and engineering services, and also using Malaysia as the hub to service customers in the region. There are a great deal of developments taking place in ASEAN and in Malaysia after our engagement in regional FTAs. So that framework has been laid down with many countries. International companies should look at this as the advantage for their operation in Malaysia or from Malaysia, even leveraging on the strength of Malaysia in Islamic financing in raising funds and also bonds, using Islamic financing to finance their projects and customers in other countries.
So those are the activities. But the R&D spending among companies, we want companies to spend more on R&D activities, to bring up the innovation culture. It is not that we have not been spending, but we have not been spending enough. So we are accelerating that and encouraging foreign investors to use Malaysia as their R&D location, to improve products and processes and make better products from Malaysia.
Where do FDI levels stand today?
MAHMUD: The last few years we have seen an increasing trend. If you look at the BoP figures, we achieved about MYR38bn ($12bn) last year and that was compared to MYR32bn ($10.1bn) in 2012. So that is around the highest we have achieved so far. This signifies a vote of confidence in terms of foreign investment coming into Malaysia, and you can see that in terms of our third party ranking at the World Bank and IMF, the rankings have improved. Even the latest one, the Ease of Doing Business, has reached to number 6. Overall, the IMF and also the World Bank rankings and other independent rankings have improved tremendously. So all of these do not happen if the enabling environment is not good in Malaysia. In fact, the enabling environment has been improving since the government has introduced different initiatives.
For example, the special committee on the ease of doing business called PEMUDAH. Literally, PEMUDAH means the ease of doing things or the ease of doing business. So a lot of red tape, regulations and processes, business processes, and re-engineering has been introduced. This translates into the ease of doing business in Malaysia getting much better.
So that is the trend of foreign investment in the last year. MYR38bn ($12bn) is among the highest that we have achieved so far. In terms of leading indicators, those figures approved by MIDA in 2013, the approved figures total, including domestic, is MYR216bn ($68.5bn). We were also surprised by that much of a leap and bound that came into the economy. So we are hoping this year, 2014, it will be another successful year because the approved figures, it is a leading indicator that will show the following year's investment will be very encouraging.
What nations are the biggest foreign direct investors into Malaysia?
MAHMUD: We still have a strong top five: European, American, Japanese and also to a certain extent, Korea and Singapore. So these have been our traditional top five investors. Germany, they take turns depending on the industry, but of late, some investments are also coming from China, because China has switched to a stage where their companies are going abroad to invest in areas of their interest.
Of course, Malaysia would like to be part of the benefits, and enjoy the benefits of this outflow from China. If you remember during the WEF, the Prime Minister of China announced that about $500bn is coming out of China to go to various locations around the world, for strategic reasons. Of course, Malaysia also wants to be the beneficiary, but of course investment from China may not all be relevant for Malaysia, but we will be looking at what will complement Malaysia. For example, the regional headquarters, the services, distribution, and certain parts of technology that the Chinese actually have some edge in this market, and in the regional market.
Investment from other regions keeps coming and increasing, including new areas like the Middle East. There has been some interest from the Middle East as well. So of course the Middle East will be investing in areas where they are competent, they are investing in Malaysia and other regional markets as well.
What investment opportunities are you actively promoting?
MAHMUD: Manufacturing is still the backbone of Malaysia. Of course, when you talk about manufacturing, you need to have technology and capital. So that is why the main capital exporting countries with technology will still be coming to Malaysia and leveraging on the infrastructure that has been developed over the years, not only physical but aslo the human capital, the ability of Malaysians to manage the operations to serve international customers. So I think we still see that all these will keep coming and developing, and leveraging existing strengths. The government is also putting in the right policies and measures to move up the value chain, not only for manufacturing, but also for services, and to create more pools of people capable of operating in higher knowledge-based activities.
What is MIDA's role in the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP)?
MAHMUD: The ETP is only part of the whole ballgame, if I can call it that. The economic transformation is in those 12 sectors that the government is giving additional support. But the non-ETP is also important and that needs attention. So our role is both; we facilitate and assist investors who are investing in ETP as well as non-ETP projects. For the ETP, we work closely with all the agencies involved in the ETP, because these are predetermined projects that have been identified and we classify it as ETP. So we make sure that their investment is facilitated and there are no hiccups, there are no issues, and we try to assist them to get their projects off the ground. The faster we get the project off the ground, the faster it will benefit the ETP. Likewise, for the non-ETP, we meet investors and we assist and facilitate from the beginning. So it's more about giving equal emphasis, because both are important.
What role does MIDA play in the National Key Economic Areas (NKEAs)?
MAHMUD: We are involved everywhere actually. We are directly involved in the E&E (Electrical and Electronics), in greater Kuala Lumpur, in the healthcare sector, and also in the downstream of palm oil products and oleo chemicals, aerospace, and medical devices. So our people are everywhere, going into the NKEAs and steering committees. They are inside those committees to assist the committee in the implementation, and to try to look at what are the issues that will stop the investment from happening or will delay the investment. So we are working together across the board within the government.

My husband and I have been lifetime members for a while now. (in 8 reviews)
SwingLifestyle reviews
35 Reviews From Our Community
Review Highlights
All Reviews
▼ Sort by: recent
My husband and i enjoy this site, been in the lifestyle many years, it appears Helen W is self promoting her website and not giving a relevant review on SLS. Anyway we love the party pages and clubs, because we can always stay up to the minute on the local swinger scene and parties.
Swinglifestyle is a great site, -take it form a couple -Nancy Graham
I like swinglifestyle, i found them on a blog through twitter and me and my husband love the site, Mike Hatcher is knowledgable
This site has major security and privacy problems, and grossly outdated technology. They lie to their members about it all, and have even banned Lifetime members who tried to discuss the problems constructively. Their "Customer Service" is an absolute travesty.
The most recent of many security/privacy lapses came to light earlier this month, when it was discovered that supposedly "private" member photos were easily accessible to anyone. The potential for this breach was known to SLS for years, and their response was not to fix it, but to squelch anyone who talked about it. For details, search on Reddit for Swinglifestyle.
They have now assured their members that the problem is fixed, and responded to customer concerns about credit card privacy by claiming that they don't retain CC data. Which is not very credible, since their membership options offer monthly-recurring automatic renewals on credit cards.
I would not believe a word these people say, especially about technology. The site is constantly experiencing glitches --sometimes major ones-- and the fixes often take months. The email system is circa 1995. The photo-handling and approval part had major problems for over a year; the forums suddenly had huge formatting problems that made them almost unreadable, and took many weeks to fix. Friends of ours tell me that they routinely receive emails from single-males, even though their profiles are supposed to be invisible to single male members. We used the privacy settings to block our profile from viewing by free members, yet we receive emails from free members who apparently can access our profile after all.
SLS shows contempt for their customers by deleting reports of these problems on their website discussion forum, and even by punishing or banning members who report the glitches. We have heard numerous horror stories from friends we trust who had the misfortune of dealing with the "Customer Service" woman. She apparently is both stupid and vindictive, and she has unsupervised authority to treat paying customers like crap.
The security breach of private pics was made worse by SLS adopting a policy a year ago, of plastering its own logo on members' pics whether the members wanted it or not. Several members complained about this practice in the website forum; no SLS person even responded to it for many months, and even then completely ignored the privacy concerns its members had expressed. Many of those posts expressing concern were simply deleted. We now refuse to upload any new face pics of ourselves, because we don't want our face pics (with a swinger-site logo superimposed) floating around. Especially, when SLS cares so little about privacy and security issues.
We have been members for five years and have met some nice people, but can no longer recommend SLS to anyone, even though it still is the largest. There are now much better sites, that don't have a policy of $#*!ting on their customers like SLS does.
The site is hands down the best you will find out there! We have been a member for about 6 years now and have had a very positive experience. If you notice most of the bad reviews are single males and probably cheating single males. Wanting everything for free and complaining everyone is fake because the don't want to meet.....it is because you are either a jerk or not atractive to them. We were free for about a year and finally became lifetime members and love it. Have met sooo many great people from the site. We block free members because if your in it for the right reasons you will pay. Don't pay attention to the negative posts. There is a very good reason no one wanted to waste the time to meet them.
We have been on this site for 6 years now...we are for real members of the lifestyle. This has been the best site we have used by far. Met lots of people..yes some have been fake. But those are normally the free member accounts who are just fishing. Let's face it if your in this for real and to meet real sls people then you will pay for it. We are lifetime members and have enjoyed the perks of being such. we havent had any privacy issues at all. Just a great place to meet for real members of this lifestyle. Met great friends in and out of thr bedroom! And its not the sites fault if your significant other is using it to meet people behind your back! The real sls members are not cheaters and dont tolerate it.
In the past I have had problems with my guy signing up for sex finder type websites... however we have addressed this issue and it's been a year since any incidents and I THOUGHT things have been going well... until yesterday I'm going through the emails and find a "welcome to swing lifestyle, thank you for joining" email, followed by another email the next day and every day after saying they can't approve his profile due to lack of content.... I'm wondering if this is SPAM or if he really legitimately joined! Whenever I have called him out in the past on this behavior he has never once lied about it.. this morning when I called him out he seemed genuinely as shocked as I was and swears up and down he did not sign up for this. Then I looked at the computers history and I found nothing, the computer wasn't even LOGGED on at all that entire week that he supposedly signed up~ I'm wondering if it's possible since he's used those types of sites in the past that his info was sold to an affiliate and that's their way of tricking him into joining (by logging in with the username and password) OR if he's really up to his tricks again... which will make or break the status of my relationship because LAST time was the last straw and now I will have to stick to my bottom line if this is true. I just don't know what to believe, but I wish sites like this weren't out to play with peoples LIVES!!! If he wants to sign up, fine, provide the service... but don't ACT like he signed up if he didn't, because now you're messing with sasquatch! Anyone have a similiar experience?? I know on the complaint board there are several complaints about fling.com doing this.. making up dummy accounts and spamming people and ruining marriages.. I just didn't know if this particular site does that too, or if he's working on ruining this by himself... any input??
UPDATE: BEWARE of your personal info!
The people who run this site read all emails between members and have a sneaky little line hidden in their terms of use that allows them to "display" any information that they find.
They refuse to say what they do with this information but if you exchange names, phone numbers or email addresses with other members, be aware that someone is reading those emails and they believe they have the right to use that information!
We are a fun attractive hwp professional couple (not married but longterm committed relationship). We joined as free members to check it out and things were fine. We were ready to jump in so we joined as paid members and within a couple of weeks we received an email that our profile was being changed to a single male. No explanation no anything. I emailed and asked what brought this on and explained that we were in fact a committed couple. No response at all. After 3 or 4 more emails complaining and finally requesting a full refund we received an email telling us to "check the terms of use" We did and we didn't come close to violating anything on there. Finally I got another response that said "due to the content or lack of content in your profile it has been denied" then they shut off the profile entirely and refused to refund anything. Now our profile was as straightforward and as normal as you are going to find on a site like this. We are your typical suburban professionals looking for a little discreet fun on the side with other professional normal people. That's what our profile said. We had pictures (PG rated) of both of us on our profile as well.
All I can say is that I feel like it was a total SCAM. Took our money and shut off our profile with absolutely NO explanation at all despite multiple attempts.
Horriable site no one is whi they really are its all a joke
Can't believe all the negative reviews. We're sure that the lifestyle varies with your location. Been a lifetime member since 2004 in upstate NY and have had nothing but good luck. Don't blame the site for wanna bee swingers, there are fakes on any site. Been to SLS sponsored events, parties, cruises, trips to hedonism. As far as support,,,, never had any issues with the site.... there is no way that any site can monitor couples / singles to verify that they are real...... That would be a huge violation to your privacy. If you don't like the site, try another,,,, we have and they really suck!!!
I had no success communicating with any chics and I'm not bad looking. Site itself is laughable. Looks/works like it was designed by elementary school students.
oh lord hands down the single worst LS site on the net. out of date, admins are so rude and cliquish it's pathetic. they DICTATE what you can say on your profile (every word of it). say if you are into black men only (even if you are a black woman) and put that on your profile you are called a RACIST and they REFUSE to allow your profile to be active. the only benefit to the site is the calendar, yet it's always the same people signing up for the same events and they sign up for multiple events in one night so you never really know who will be there.
they majority of their groups hosting parties such as (d-spot, g-spot, lyons parties) are ALL GHETTO CHEAP PARTIES with OVERWEIGHT SLOPPY WOMEN in CHEAP MOTEL ROOMS/dirty apartments and they are charging out the ass for them.
interracial-kink hosts parties through this site at his home (only nice thing is HIS HOME) the parties are a joke, very OLD WOMEN very FAT UGLY WOMEN and any man who is willing to pay 100 to get in. the host himself spends the majority of the night in the garage getting high instead of being a good host
trust SAVE YOUR MONEY this site will be a waste of it
Customer service is horrible on this site. There is one person who runs it and she is a down right $#*!. No one monitors her. She shuts down profiles for dumb ass bull$#*! and gives certain people preferential treatment because of affiliate money that they bring in. It really isn't about tos- it's about money with sls. You can do what ever you want if you are a vip or promoter.
Good and bad times. Some great people on there but so many people acting like junior high school drama bs. Many many cheating husbands. parties close to prostition hotel parties with fake profiles to lie to get in single men and take their money $30 to $60 per single guy. But yet they call it a donation... the group called... times wasteing open your mind. Some people have 3-5 profiles for one person. Lots of game playing on this site. Best to meet people at the events and use your judgement if u get threw the high school bus!
been a member for 4 years now,, new owners or whoever is there now, they really suck, worst site ever now,, used to be good but now,, sorry to say is worse than craigslist
Well, The site claims to be free but there are way to many restrictions, limited e-mails and profiles views. Also if someone contacts you and send you a image, you cannot view it unless you are a paying member. Also if you are out of e-mails which is 5 per day, you cannot even respond to that person who is a paying member. Nothing but a scam to get money out of you. The website sucks.
Like anything else in this world, it is what you make of it. It is a means to meet people who POSSIBLY have like interests and desires, but the same as anywhere else, it is up to YOU to find out who is real and a good match. No different on SLS than another dating site, meeting someone at a bar, or getting hooked up with a buddy's blind date!
Now, the free profiles are very limiting and frustrating, so naturally the perks are for the paid members, but because you plop down a few bucks guys think it is a key to the Playboy mansion and they will have an endless parade of beauties waltz through their doors.
Sadly, my guess is most who complaint about SLS or swinging in general, bring very little to the table. I have met people of all shapes and sizes, some gorgeous some, not so much, but most very kind and respectful, and very willing to share!
Once you are a lifetime member they don't give a $#*! about you. In fact its like they want you to go away and come back and pay for another membership. They censor you what you say about how they really are, which is crappy. They offer zero customer service, the site always has something that doesn't work and it is FULL of FAKES, POSERS, and LIARS! so DO NOT PAY for this site, EVER!
We have been lifetime members since the day we first joined this website and we have also been ambassadors to this website by enourageing more than 500 couples to join this website all at OUR expense. However as of todays date the website has revoked our lifetime membership privildges because we send out too many "HELLO WELCOME TO SLS" emails as well as too many emails welcoming anyone and everyone into our home at OUR expense at which time you can the chance to meet several other SLS members. We regret all that we have done for this website over the past 5 years and highly encourage any/all swingers to be so warned that this website it not worth spending your money to become a paid members as they can revoke those priviledges anytime they want to (which surely should not be legal). Please feel free to contact us anytime if you need or want additional information about how the SLS staff has been treating us lifestime members. Our screen name is joepaula on their site.
Been a free member, joined for 3 months - I like that it is not an automatic renewal. Then I was given a free year of membership when they were running a promo, which was great... Not everyone is Barbie and Ken, But I have met people through the groups. You need to physically get out of your house to meet people! Stop waiting for them to respond, check out some meet and greets and you will find the serious people.
We have met some great people on the site, but the forums and chat are very scary places for those that are not used to being abused in a public arena. The owner apparently does not pay attention to how their staff is running the site. A moderator is needed but the owner is to cheap to invest in one. Wayne (profile review) has some serious mental health issues, and after listening to his "thoughts" on things, it explains why the site has serious issues. This site is a lawsuit waiting to happen.
Have been a paying member for almost two years and have met a number of genuine people. The "service" provided, however, is severely lacking. At this moment the site is off the air and I have received no explanation even though the managers have my email address with which to contact me with an estimate of when service will be restored. So...members, for the most part - good; service - lousy.
Hands down the most shady swinger oriented site on earth. They have existed for many years based on the "backwoods" nature of this lifestyle. Swingers are a social bunch, SLS is more of a wife swap message board. No tech support, customer service or assistance of any kind once you pay for a membership.
In three months my wife and I have seen the worst of the worst racist banter we have ever seen. This is due to the site offering free memberships to whomever. It was a complete waste of money due to the lower class of people that seem to gravitate to this site.
DO YOURSELF A FAVOR...just go to a swinger event and mingle, ask questions and inquire. It has been our history that very few real swingers belong to any web based site at all. The reasons we heard were much of the same as we concluded.
We did attend a popular resort and found two days into this trip we paid twice as much as we should have. SLS seems to jack up prices for the novice new members. Lesson learned and allow us to provide this Warning: The people who control and moderate this site are very racist and make no excuses for it whatsoever. This was a discovery we made when we complained about a Rant in a chat room. The nature of this rant was so offensive we tried to complain and even saved the screen to show them A moderator from Florida replied and told us they agreed with the member and if we did not like what was said, block him.
Just beware and never join this silly site, rely on your better judgement and investigate any website before joining. Thank Goodness for SITE JABBER....just wished we would have checked it before we joined sls. Grrrr
We have had a couples membership on SLS for about 10 months and have met several great couples and some respectful, energetic single guys. SLS does seem to have a lot of couples who either are not serious swingers or who are very, very picky, but we've gotten pretty good at figuring out who they are and avoiding them.
The site has a feature that lets you add brief, private comments to member profiles so as you scroll through them you can read your notes about them - e.g., "single guy posing as couple," "messaged them twice with no reply," "rude response," "a nice couple for potential future meeting," etc., etc. That feature helps jog your memory. Also, there is a personal member rating system and all your email history is readily available on a profile with the click of an icon. Another icon lets you read other peoples' "certifications" of profiles you are interested in. We find these features very useful.
I recommend this site for couples. It offers free memberships, which work with some limitations. We got a lifetime membership because it was relatively cheap and we have more freedom to see pics, exchange messages, etc. and not be bothered with recurring billing. SLS has been very reliable for us so far. There are a many, many members on SLS and the search engine works well when you get used to it.
SLS is probably not a good site for single guys looking for single women, but for single guys looking for couples it probably isn't bad. I don't know of any swinger sites for single guys that might be any better however. As I said, we have met several reliable single guys on SLS, and there always seem to be plenty of them available for couples seeking a third for a ménage à trois.
It's probably best to create a free member account on SLS and try it for a while, then buy a membership if you think it's working for you and you want more features.
Yeah, just another unsatisfied lifetime customer. Everything is good until you need support. They really aren't motivated to help you when you pay the entire fee up front.
My wife and I have been in the lifestyle for over 6 years and we've used this site along with one other since the very beginning. SLS is by far our preferred site. It is very easy to navigate and it offers some useful tools to personalize our profile. We especially like the way we can protect the privacy of our pictures with one easy click and allow viewing to only those who we decide to share with one more easy click. There are lots of members and we have found that it is one of the easiest way to meet people. We think you'll like it! :-)
My husband and I have been lifetime members for a while now. We haven't had any problems. Of course there are the flakes and fake profiles. The pic collectors and the guys who only wanna webcam. In our experience it has been the single males that are the worst at it. Either they just want to collect as many pics as they can, or want to cheat on their wives and use this site to do it. The few single men we have actually met with have been gracious and very respectful. We have also met great couples that have become close friends in our vanilla life. We do like going to house parties and things like that, so yes, the site is great for that as well. Too many people look at it as a dating site, its NOT. It is a site for swingers that want to meet other swingers. We love it!!!
I like it me and my husband have been members for 5 years and met several great couples.
technically speaking the site offers decent value for the money. However the members on the site preach "honesty" and "trust" yet I've rarely met any of them that will be truthful or honest. Most people never respond to an email and the few that do, suddenly drop off the end of the earth after you open up your photos to them or after exchanging an email or two. It is clear that the best use of this site is for those people who frequent Swinger's clubs/parties to arrange their get-togethers. If you are not part of the "in-crowd" it is very challenging to get in on the action.
So far so good. The members are average looking for the most part but are actually real as far as I can tell. I know one member in my area is real for sure as she is a local adult film star and prostitute. Most replies from members are polite too so far...
Have been a member since they offered lifetime memberships in 2006.
THIS SITE JUST BLOWS !! CHOCK FULL of FAKES, FLAKES, INTERNET HOOKERS ( most of whom ALL are "free" ), WEENIE WACKERS that are too butt ugly to even pay to get laid.
We have me (are ya ready for this ?) JUST 3 LIGITIMATE COUPLES and ONE SINGLE FEMALE in 5 Y-E-A-R-S of "membership".
THe site has done NOTHING to improve the quality of the members and it should come as NO SUPRISE that they are here for NOTHING MORE than COLLECTING FEES.
IF you even THINK that being a "member" is going to "spice up your sex life" YOU sex life is already IN the toilet and all this site will do for you is WASTE YOUR TIME.
SAVE YOUR MONEY for a decent looking street WHORE, in the LONG RUN , MOST LOOK better and it's WAY cheaper !!
If you're looking for adult dating options save your money and check out swinglifestyle.com. There the only limits on free members are you're only allowed to view 50 profiles and/or to send 5 E-mails per 24 hour period, (tho strangely, you're free to join chatrooms and IM) and you can't view pictures that have been classified as "nude". And contrary to popular belief, it's not populated solely with swinging couples, there are lots of singles. (Mostly male but some females).
Check it out!
I had a great time on swinglifestyle for 2 years, still a member with the wife, don't know what other people are complaining about, other than maybe they are a competitor? SLS is great
I have found this site easy to use even though my computer skills are minimum. Free and they mean free, same great site, simply restricted use as a free member.
Was a free member and was a paid member. Same old group running the show on there. They latch on to new members and then as always, diss them off. SLS does not care about complaints for lifetime members. I have been verbally attacked and I reported, nothing was done.
There is a lot of bull$#*! on there. Alot fo people acting like they meet but really dont. this site sucks. if you think your gonna sign up and find sex, FORGET IT! Take it form me. As a matter of fact i got so fed up with it I cancelled my paying membership
Swinglifestyle's poor and biased customer service - Having been a member of this site for over five years I have seen the customer service at this site sink to new lows. Apparantly they care little about fairness. All they seem to be about is making money. If you have a complaint about other member abuse or how things don't work on the site, your member profile can be removed without notice. They seem to tolerate racial and ethnic insults or slurs in their forums. Certain members seem to be able to say or write anything they wish but others do so at the risk of suspensions or bannishment from the site. Customer service is very biased. They care little about members once they have your membership fee. They only are interested in obtaining new paid memebrs. Do yourself a favor and spend your money on sites who treat their paid members equally. This site does not.

These fit correctly, but do not have the rubber bumpers on the bottom as my old pads have. Thought the bumpers were part of the item. The pads I purchased are still in the packaging on the workbench.
