Title: why remove the character type ?
Post by: bozorg on April 17, 2015, 05:12:17 PM
Hello,

This is by the way my personal thoughts on this modification of the character profile.
I just noticed but the character type (sex maniac, romantic ...) disapeared and was replaced by the "Gifting"  option. Gifts were already asked in description areas, so I don't think this was needed. On the contrary, the type could give some people more information on the personality or possible affinities.

I personally don't think it's for the best or at least put both options.

Thanks for all the work.

Boz

Hi ya  bozorg,

Welcome to forum.  Thank you for posting and bringing the update to our notice so quickly.

Please introduce yourself to the rest of the Forum Village.

Forum Homepage / Organisations & Events / Introduce yourself  http://www.funnyadultgamesplay.com/forum/index.php/board,22.0.html

I have checked the update and you are right we have lost our "Character" -  Passionate, Romantic, Sex Maniac, talkative in the profile

and it has been replaced with  " I Expect / Send Gifts"  and  "I dont expect / send gifts. 

This is also an addition in the search facility.

I suspect therefore that the update is to try and find a solution to the many complaints about whores in the game.  The idea to address it , is members can search and edit out people asking for gifts or failing to fill it in on their profile.

It may or may not work.   Only time will tell.

I thank Achat for at least trying to address the issue following the large number of complaints we receive about it.

The old character checkbox was not really meaningful. It's not really a loss IMO.
Those who expect gifts, don't have to write it in their banner now. And those, who don't want to pay for sex now can see who is a whore.

I'm with Brandy - I think we all know the reason they have changed it and only time will tell if it works.

The gifting check could be nice for the guys. I haven't seen any manwhores so meh. That said, the personality types was nice to a point. Though most guys I have seen check them all anyways lol. Maybe a good old fashioned text block profile would be best. Hard to say you are romantic if you cant put some freestyle mojo on your profile.

I think it's a good addition, though like the gifting system itself is open to abuse by unscrupulous members.  It's helpful if everyone is honest about whether they  expect gifts or not, but obviously some won't offer the information until they hit on you for "a little gift".
As for losing the character type boxes, I never used them to decide whether to chat with anyone, so don't see the removal as a loss.

I agree with you Kate...I think more space to show and prove would be an awesome way to see exactly who is what, or who are just full of shit. On my own I checked talkative, and I noticed it brought me guys who definitely could match my talkative nature ;)  So yea I would rather have that back or in an addition to the gifting thing. I think it is pointless but hey I am not one of those advertising for them so eh c'est la vie!

In my opinion it makes only sense if the User has to choose one of the three opportunities. Otherwise it doesnt matter...

Hi,
Yes Wetbone is what I have argued previously, nobody will check one option so it's useless  :(
Go go go beggars of sex, you can continue  ;D

It's true that if we had more space to write a short presentation that's would be good.
When they changed the "country" for the "short info" I didn't like either because newcomers don't put the country, so the spoken language.

Hello,

They handed the indication "Country" I had not even seen!  ::)
A good thing  ;)

 I would like to have the option to not check on any really.

I would leave all blank .

none if  it that matters to me

as  Nat says    more space

I would much rather read a personnel  presentation  by the  member

then check box's.. 8)

Personally I think it gives the message that achat condones the pay to play types.  Which may make them money in the short term, but in the long term I have seen many friends completely leaving the game because of it.  Pay me now or pay me later, but you're still going to pay me.  I guess achat needs to decide which financial model will benefit them most in the long term.  I don't see the game keeping many if it becomes dominated by pay to play, so much easier for a guy to dial a 900 number or view a webcam show.  The beauty of achat is that it's TWO people looking for a good time, and not one wanting to masturbate while the other fakes their way through it for money. 

I did use the personality box ;)  I like other talkative people.

Hear Hear Misdevious, pay for play  might be somes cuppa tea but not mine  would make playing here like work  lol
not to worry  i never heard of anyman charging top room.  oh wait i do recall one, lol if you can call him a man.

i do think the gifting selector  has value i allows me to filter out those that demand it and let you know by clicking the appropriate button.

i like to see  more space and a associated note  area on other peoples profile, or maybe  just for friends lovers and spouses where notes can be  kept.

Actually Roxy, I was referring to them making a decision to either allow/encourage men paying women to room, or to discourage it/ban it.  Men gifting to room obviously is making them money as these men buy achat$, but at some point this (is already) and will continue to drive other people away.  I personally don't think that men bearing the brunt of all the payments for this game is a smart decision for this format as (webcams, phone sex etc) are already a well established, and quicker/easier way for men to masturbate with a partner.

Hello guys, I'm back. Most of you probably don't remember me, but that's fine, I was away for 200 years, well it was just 2 years, but even that long is an eternity. So I installed recently (2 days ago) AChat and been browsing the forum, which brought me to this topic. Well, I read, that those checkboxes about characterisation were removed, exchanged for some whore stuff, or what, but after logging in and looking on my character customization window in AChat, I still see those checkboxes. Is it because of an older client, or was it brought back while I took that 200 years long slumber?
I am just pretty much confused, so thanks for your replies.

Would I sell myself for sex in the real world, no I simply couldn't. In my fantasy world Achat is boosting my confidence so much, I am a extremely shy woman with not a great deal of self worth. For someone to actually want to pay for my services helps  me in ways I simply cant explain, if I have been gifted I accept the fact that i have committed to participate in something that is to be special for that person who has gifted me and when I say participate I get the urge to with all my heart, it is so real for me and most of my real sexual highs I experience during paid sexual encounters, and if that person paying doesn't reach the same heights I am staying until he does. I shouldn't say this but it doesn't really mater to me what someone has paid me the same level service should be provided because they have paid me something. I was paid $200A to participate in a MFF event and realised the person who paid for my service didn't have the poses, not being particularly keen on group sex I felt compelled to purchase over $1200A worth of poses during that event end result 3 content and happy players (me included!) And I've added two new friends
