Well, I'm fighting a losing battle here with one of the guys (who shall remain nameless  ;) ) as to how to best run the orgasm meter. I think it should stay at it's highest level and not drop at all. He thinks that it should drop over time.

So...poll time. What do you people think?

vote...with me...I hope  ;D

I'd like to be in control of the meter. from going up to going down, including a reset. That way you can use it as a non textual means of communicating how much you like the action.

I think I'll be in the minority here and say that I'm okay with the drop. It's more realistic, and to me that seems to be the whole point of the Orgasm Meter.

ok with the drop,..the waves of intensity,...rise and fall of senses...makes sense,...but I understand your point,...there are those times,...excitement takes hold, drives you...last thing I worry though at that point, is the frickn' meter

I like the drop over time because in real life, who cums and doesn't stop? However, I do hate that the meter drops/decreases (quite a lot) when changing positions. I can see a little bit, by 1/4 to 1/2 is unrealistic.

@ apollo:
hmmm...maybe i should have been a little clearer. pre-cumming is what i was talking about...having to click and click to get the meter back to where it was. post-cumming i'm fine with the drop...i do like that action.

and you did bring up a good point...the meter dropping when you change positions. whats up with that?!?

A half seems unrealistic,...for programming purposes I can understand a quarter drop,...

Are they radically different poses? 69 to from behind at the table?

There is something to be said about being able to get that rhythm. When you change positions you ARE stopping. It might be less then a minute as you shift around, but you are stopping, those excited nerve endings are getting a chance to calm down.

During the same action it should not drop. I am with you. It's ok when it drops a little bit when you change position, but not as much as it does.
And I know, I am alone with this, but I also say: During the same action it should increase from time to time (e.g. every 60s a bit) and not stay at one position.
But most of all it's important to have control about it. This is ok.

The counter would be that an automatic increase detaches it from the users response and kinda misses the point.

Not trying to be contrary (honest) but on my list of reasons to be pissed off at the development team the Orgasm Meter isn't on it. As it stands it seems to fully serve it's purpose as it is now.

Honestly the one time I finally went in a room, I kept forgetting it was there.  Then I had to stop what I was doing ::)  so I press it.  Which actually made MY meter go down, trying to remember that damn thing. ::) ::).   So can't really vote, Bobby :P.  Have to try it many more times in order to give a acurate vote. :P :P

I am split. Like sinnnn I tend to forget about it. Mostly I am so into what me and my partner says and what is happening on screen so it might not even be there. Then I just have to push it all the way up when it's time to do that. On the other hand, it's something strangely nice with the meter slowly decreasing in the afterplay, like winding down or something. I think I agree with bobbler, both in that the meter should be totally under our control, and that it shouldn't decrease when changing positions. The default for males should be that it would decrease a lot after cumming though. Finally though, as Janine says, there are a lot more important things to focus on than the bloody orgasm meter...

If you read e.g. sinnnn and Chris words, this problem would be solved with an automatic increase. It's more realistic - you can't fuck for hours in an erotic mood without getting closer to cum :)
Of course we must keep the control - my avatar may not cum, if I am having a phone break, lol.

But one point also is true - the orgams meter is not a thing they have to take care about at the moment. IAt least I like it, it was a real improvement.

My point is more that an automatic increase might have your avatar right at the peak while you're still several paces away. For a visible meter that both partners can see anything other then the person indicating "I am here." The point seems to get defeated.
