Title: What should the Development Team do next?
Post by: apollo13nut on September 02, 2010, 12:43:24 PM
OK, this is something we've all complained about (whether on the forum or not): the chat setup. I hate that if you don't click "chat" just right, it doesn't come up. I hate that we have to sort through the drop box. I recommend a new layout to the chat. instead of a drop down, a separate scroll box on the side of the chat box that has a person's name as a button. Clicking the button switches to their profile AND makes them the chatter. It would be nice if they could find a way to make dedicated threads (clicking on a name shows the convo with that person only; it changes as you click names).

Anyway, I figure I'd put up a poll and see where people think the dev-team should focus attention.

like the idea of clicking on the name to switch chat dialog,...though I think multiple chat boxes may be a bit much,...

I think chat filters will be of little use till we can choose to be invisible, or even just "busy", because even the current system would be okay if there weren't so many constantly hailing.

honestly, I want to be able to log on and only my friends or who I chose can see me.  I want that more than anything.

I agree with this, it should be a lil like msn or something like that. It would be gr8.

I think they should just spam out the positions and clothes, as long as they have somewhat of an order. FF probably needs more, I noticed like 5 of the MF positions have near duplicates.

That almost makes it worse... when it's a slightly altered version of a previous position that just makes the gap that much bigger. If the situation were different I'd almost feel bad for the Het Set as they're paying for each slightly different version.

Yeah i decided to only buy 7 or 8 of the poses

To some degree Janine,...but I am never static in Real Life,..and choose my poses to move accordingly..might be minor, but I enjoy the flow I can find in transitions...so I have most,...barring 3 or 4 which I have no interest in.

I'm going to be selfish and vote for more shemale poses  :P. But it would really be nice with a better chat system.

I'm much the same Bear, I'd rather have a tool I have and don't need then one I need and don't have. I just don't have tools coming out as quickly.

And it's understood Adera  :) I'm the same with FF.

Post by: Unhealer on September 08, 2010, 10:20:01 PM
well there are enough MS for now I think. most of the shemales are probably the free chicks who were dudes. figured it was a little less gay for them to pretend to be shemales

I would recommend not going there Unlover. Not only is it an insulting implication to the genuine shemales, but it's a rehash of the old argument that many of the females are guys pretending to be girls (yet no one ever has insisted there are girls pretending to be guys?).

It may very well be true, but one of the perks of AChat is you don't have to be yourself. I KNOW I've roomed with women who list themselves as "bi" but in real life are 100% straight and just use AChat to explore those bi curious fantasies... I would imagine it's the same with the men.

So arguing about what people "really" are not only has no solution, but goes against a good portion of what I feel is the purpose of being here.

Not to mention there are premium shemales, and as far as I'm concerned that entitles them to implements, period. You pay you get to play.

DAMN.  You go girl.  I just totally have nothing to say.  You said it all.  I just sit here looking round and kicking my feet hummmmmmmmm. ::)

haha i wasnt talking about the real shemales, I was talking about the guys who made a female character and then made a shemale one.
its all well and good aside from the creepy fact that theres a guy jerking off on the other side of the screen

Unhealer? I'm assuming you're a guy, and well I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that you... type one handed at certain points when rooming, but it's okay since you have a male avatar? How do I know that you really are a guy? In my previous post I asked why no one ever assumes there are women posing as men online, maybe you're one of those.

We could play this game till the web crashes, but what's the point?
Title: Re: What should the Development Team do next?
Post by: Unhealer on September 10, 2010, 04:20:06 AM
you honestly dont care if its a guy on a female avatar as long as they convince you theyre a chick? doubt it

I would like a MF  basking in the afterglow cuddle set...once you are both exhausted there's no pose for lying back and sharing the moment and chatting....just call me an old romantic!
Title: Re: What should the Development Team do next?

WELCOME  UKTIMBO ;D

To the who is behind the avi---
Honestly, who gives a fuck who is behind the avatar.  I'm mean really its not like you can really find the truth out.  I say just make friends, fuck and enjoy.  An orgasm is just the same no matter who is really behind that avatar(its not really just the same, you do have good rp and ones who couldn't rp to save their lives).

Seriously, how can you tell us if we really don't mind something sweety.  If I say I don't care who is behind it(um no serial killlers please, I will draw the line at that), then thats what I am saying. 

it may bother some, and to each his owns.  But you do have ppl, like me who just don't worry bout stuff like that.  There are somethings worth getting a heachache over and this is sooooo not one. ;D

It's more a matter of looking at it honestly... I can't KNOW. It's not possible, and if I sit there and scrutinize every thing they say wondering "Is this something a man or woman would say?" I'll drive myself crazy.

I've seen people get worked up over it, and they make themselves miserable.

If we were going to insist on "real" there would have to be male avatars with receding hairlines that have to spend A$ to get little blue pills they take before every encounter. Women would have to have some sort of random boob generator to see if we can get the big tits. Your age would have to be verified and things like wrinkles would be added without your control.

Because that is all "real".

I like the fact I can pick and choose what I bring from the real woman to "Janine".

Oh and welcome uktimbo... sorry I was on my soapbox, I can agree and say that we need a FF what we also call a "cool down" for afterward.

Haha some hetero guys are really questioning me and after they're done and happy I usually don't feel so excited about them anymore. But after spending so much time chatting with them it feels like a waste not to check how good lovers they are.

Please I ended up on a ignore list because I refuse to prove I was a chic.  He wanted me to send him pics of myself.  And when I told him off, I all of a sudden sounded like a guy.  Oh thats what a guy would say and that I must be into young boys etc.   Because I defend myself and will tell you to fuck off does not mean I am a guy.  It means you pisse a chic off and you just totally lost out on someone that was really a chic.  You are so worried about who is behind the avi, that you become rude and nasty.  Guess what, you loose out on what you wanted, a real chic bechind the avi. :P

Next you'll be bitchn bout how she really looks. ::)

I don't know if it's an attitude exactly Adera... it could also have been a ploy. It could be that he didn't think Sinnnn was actually a guy, but was trying to coerce her into sending pics.

Your probably right Janine, I've encountered something similiar.

Post by: sinnnn on September 11, 2010, 07:35:46 AM
Really do men think we are that stupid to fall for something like that.  I'm really insulted if he actually was trying some bullshit like that.  I rather believe the other way, because if I believe your theory there will be bitch slaps all round.  For the guy that think chics are that stupid and for the chics that was actually stupid enough to fall for it.  But there slaps would be special, full of self esteem.   :P
Title: Re: What should the Development Team do next?
Post by: Janine Dee on September 11, 2010, 08:43:55 AM
Sinnnn my darling, I hold stupidity to be a universal constant. So yes there are guys who would think that would work, and yes there are women who are stupid enough to fall for it.

You can ALWAYS count on the idiocy of strangers.

Sadly you can't rely any where near as much on peoples self respect.

I will give them that it IS very, very new, but that just means that it needs that option implemented at the earliest possible time.
Title: Re: What should the Development Team do next?
Post by: Adera on September 12, 2010, 08:31:42 AM
I don't think it will happen, there is no short term economic value in adding features to existing positions...
Title: Re: What should the Development Team do next?
Post by: Janine Dee on September 12, 2010, 09:29:22 AM
*sigh* You are correct. I've actually expressed the same idea myself. Then we can at least hope they implement it in any new positions.
Title: Re: What should the Development Team do next?
Post by: Bear on September 12, 2010, 08:43:27 PM
Well any good marketer would review slow sale poses decide which should be reconsidered for modification,..in the end that can drive a better return.
Title: Re: What should the Development Team do next?
Post by: Janine Dee on September 13, 2010, 04:58:20 AM
The problem is the shemale poses could most likely fall like I consider FF as "There are so few to choose from so I'll buy it as to have it available." More then that most businesses hate to revisit old efforts. At least as I see it they prefer to come out with the next thing rather then revisit old designs.
Title: Re: What should the Development Team do next?
Post by: Bear on September 13, 2010, 05:49:21 PM
Point taken,...variety does help I still would like to see the ladies start with a design suggestion thread,...we're are all making an assumption that these gentlemen actually understand what women want. (presuming there are no female consultants in their employment) Not that it will help but perhaps some ideas may flash in their minds.

This might include taking existing MF and providing some insight how they might implement it for the FF crowd.
Just as suggestion.
Title: Re: What should the Development Team do next?
Post by: Janine Dee on September 14, 2010, 04:03:42 AM
Not a bad idea at all. I'll work on it a bit, see how I would want to start it, and if no one else has started one up I probably will.
