People that leave so soon

I notice that every now and then somebody new shows up, and more often than not disappear as quickly as they came.

I don't know why they leave, and it annoys me that even though i never spoke to them, they already left. I assume that they have had some contact with some people here that lack a certain tact.

So my question is for the Ladies, what is the most irritating, indecent behavior you have been subjected to here at the FF site, and has anything been done about it? And has anyone noticed that once they posted pictures that the annoyances went up?

I'm not trying to stir up trouble, I'm just looking for reasons that would cause people to leave so quickly.

That is a good possibility and maybe some people have made that choice, but I can imagine that most people would 'look around' before joining. So they might have made up their mind before that.
But what i see is that some women shows up, has pictures... and after a while the pictures disappear, and they disappear.

I am probably asking the wrong people here, because you all stayed, but any input is appreciated.

That's probably what is happening. I'm just curious what exactly accounts to being creepy enough for people to leave. If some people have had bad experiences, it would be good if they shared them. Even if it only to make clear what sort of behavior is unacceptable.

like I said, i see a pattern. I'm sure lot of people leave for different reasons, I am assuming some leave because of the creepers.

And it does rather look like you're trying to stir up trouble really with your "and was anything done about it" part. ANY person who makes an official complaint to a moderator, has it investigated and dealt with. This is usually within 24 hours.


I know people can report these things, but I'm just wondering how many actually have reported anything. Do all women report these things, or do they let them pass? I'm sure that somebody that is relatively new is not likely to report anything.

This is not critique to the site or the moderators, I'm just wondering about these things. I appreciate all the things that are being done at the moment.

Sometimes I think people leave because of ambivalence-torn between their desires and reality of their "real-world" life. The lady mentioned from Iceland was quoted on another site as finding these places"too addictive". It's not always creepers-or bad photo comments. I had a heart-to-heart a few weeks ago with someone who loved it here and was having a blast. But the persons job performance was suffering as well as "real world" social life.i.e. popping in on FF to check for comments on pics or forum responses and pm's at work. And not going out with friends enough to be home stuffing and staying on FF. I 've seen many stop posting,then visit less.Then quitely slip away without fanfare. There's lots of reasons people leave suddenly.Or after a few months. And even after a few years. This is generally a wonderful place to be-that's for sure.
