G'day Guys,

Welcome to the Speedo Forum.

If you are a guest, you can only see a small portion of the forum. Members like posting their speedo selfies so I don't like that to be 100% public. However, joining is free.

If you are a new member, you need to email me your username so I can manually activate your account. This is a pain (for you and me) but it is the only way I've been able to keep the spam bots from ruining the forum. My email address is: DaveEvans@SpeedoFetish.com

This forum is free and I don't allow any advertising (except my own sites), if you would like to donate please click the link above, all donations go towards the hosting and maintenance of the forum for everyone to enjoy.

Lack of Replies/Interest

Post by speedoboi » Tue Aug 06, 2013 12:15 pm

I'm very happy being a member of this forum. Despite some great topics, photos and stories, there's one area we are bad at: replies and interest. It's disgusting to see the lack of replies and interest with MANY of the posts. Maybe an attitude adjustment is needed for some. For example, I have 2 speedos for sale at a very decent price. I' selling them for less than half of what I paid. Instead of throwing them in the garbage, I decided to sell them. I won't be rich, but at least someone can enjoy the speedos at a very cheap price and they haven't been worne at all. Many of you will probably go on ebay and purchase swimwear from a complete stranger but you have no interest to purchase from a fellow member.

I've joined a few boards, and who knows why there is sometimes no response. Sometimes I go to reply, but then think again if someone has already said what I wanted to say, then I usually don't.

But then I made an exception that time when by total coincidence you and I were online at the same time, complimenting the new guy from NC about his suit and good looks. The notice came up telling me to maybe reconsider, but I posted anyway. I mean, it kind of looks like I just copied you (generally speaking, this is bad board etiquette), but then what are the odds of 2 people thinking pretty much the same thing at the same time? So I posted.

Another "unwritten rule" of these boards seems to be "don't be a posting whore" posting for the sake of posting.

Don't take it personally. I'm glad to see another Canuck here.

Cheers, 5t9

I'm no posting whore for sure. But I see your point. I simply post a reply on something I like.

I'll send this in a private message as well. The black speedo is a size S (small), or size 30 waist. The other one by Aussiebum is a size M (medium). If you go to the speedo shopping section, you can see pictures of them.

Hi, I think the lack of replies might just be that we have a small membership [We're an elite I guess!]. I'm on some other forums [Non-swimwear] that have huge memberships and you are pretty much garunteed a reply as soon as you post anything, not that it's always relevent mind you!
