I think Eden has a lot to offer and can also improve in a lot of ways. They are still one of the best.

Unicorns- That special category of women that want sex and not the relationship!
-
After browsing the forum this morning, I realized that some of the women here do not seem to be aware of what a Unicorn is. A free woman that wants sex, and is comfortable enough in her body to explore. They are as rare and beautiful as a unicorn.
These days there are a lot of clubs that are woman centric. You get to look and act as sexy as possible without it being necessary a "meat market." Pleasure Zone is one. The environment is designed specifically to make women both safe and sexy. Men need a female escort, but women can attend alone or with a female. (Although I admit that I once managed to get two men in with some shennigans.)
Once there, you set the rules. You can dance, kiss, play or end up leaving with someone. Most of the clubs are not sex-clubs per say. Although in the sex clubs the rule is often the same. Males need escorts. If you are curious about your sexuality- bisexual, bi-curious or especially a threesome. If you just want to get laid, it's a great opportunity. You never know what may come out of it. Especially since you can set the rules and walk away.
From a safety perspective it's better than bars. Most of the people that attend are highly conscious of all aspects of safety and find it automatic. You don't have to argue about condoms for example. (At sex clubs- condoms are all over the place.) -

I'm a Unicorn.
I've was in committed relationships, one after another (including a 8.5 year marriage) from age 15 until just this Sept. The problem I find is that more and more people I meet are looking for a relationship when that is the LAST thing I want. Men and women alike don't seem to understand that I finally feel free and just want to explore my own sexuality for a while.
Seriously - I need to find one of these clubs. Thanks DBD! I'm on a hunt now. :) -

Personal pet peeve or legitamate complaint?
-
I just spent some time working on a review that I needed to revise as well as writing a follow up for it. In the process, I noticed that the original review had added both formatting and links that I did not add.
I was particularly bothered by a link to a review for another product (not general product pages). I don't think was even relevant. This wasn't a sex guide either.
What is up with this, and is anyone else bothered by the liberties that Eden takes with our reviews? Do I really have to constantly look at reviews to make sure my "writing" reflects My work? Or is the only choice to leave... -

I don't agree with it either, but it's certainly not going to make me leave.

Quote: They aren't changing your "writing." They're just adding formatting. I don't agree with it either, but it's certainly not going to make me leave.I agree with Epiphora. If it really bothers you--and really, I've yet to find formatting that makes me THAT angry, even the mangling of my TantraBeam review--then nobody will fuss if you go in and edit it. You could also send an e-mail to the folks in charge and respectfully ask them not to format your reviews.
My more recent reviews have hardly any added formatting, beyond italicizing the toy's name and linking to page relevant to what is being discussed, so I'm surprised that your reviews are apparently getting formatted so much.
Regardless of all that, they really aren't changing your writing. The body of the review is still the same.

Moving Forward from the security breach
-
So... Eden had a major security breach. It was an accident, and it was of a short duration. It's left me with questions about other procedures that Eden uses that are still unresolved. (I once was an auditor. I know this stuff.) My sense of trust is somewhat fragile, and I feel the community is really upset right now.
What are the thoughts of the reviewers of what you want to do at the moment? -

(I once was an auditor. I know this stuff.) My sense of trust is somewhat fragile, and I feel the community is really upset right now.I think I touched on this in my post to the official problem. I want to see EF working on this. I want more prompt action in the future. I want retribution to be paid to those who deserve it. I want EF to be VERY mindful from here on out.
What are the thoughts of the reviewers of what you want to do at the moment?
But I want to be able to keep reviewing and participating in what has been a great community. I want to trust them again. I want to give them a second chance. Unfortunately, it seems this has happened when some new faces took up positions within the company and they have to deal with errors which may not be theirs. I can understand that so I will give this group a chance to fix errors of the last. -
I'd really like to see Eden Fantasys take responsibility for the breach of security and deal with its ramifications effectively.

Eden is Pornography!!
-
Eden Fantasys is classified as Pornography!
I disagree. Adult, yes. Pornography- not likely. I was on a wireless network at Strike entertainment and found my access to Eden was completely blocked. Besides, I actually think that kids should have access to sex education and toys! -
Erm what???? I've never had it banned on govt computers in the army! (not that I'm shopping at work or anything.)
-
Work computer said the SAME. That it was blocked b/c of "pornography"...

Eden Partner Program- Making Money from Eden
-
Is the Eden Partner Program still in effect? I see that it's still on the front page of the website. I signed up way, way, way back when. I have never actually gotten anything from it. Now it's possible that I've never gotten the first sale from anyone directly from my blog. I'm not worried about that.
The other question, I have is related to the widgets. If you copy your personal widget to a blog...
1. Does it automatically count as a link back to Eden, so you don't need additional links?
2. Does it automatically include you in the Partner program without additional hassle if people come in from that direction?
(I too, noticed that the widgets are showing duplicates right now. I'm not interested in copying it to my blog until that gets fixed. Although I'm not sure it was before I updated my favorites.) -
I'm still getting money from it. You have to tell people about the code. I posted it on an LJ community and had a spike in sales after that. Now that I have the ads on my blog, I'm continuing to get small sales.

Good thinking to ask if the widgets include our partner codes, though! I just clicked a few links on my widget and none of them have my affiliate code in them so I don't think it's helping your cause.

Sex forum
Fun and thorough reviews--always a pleasure to read!
Welcome! I'm on a personal mission to update some of my oldest reviews. I'm on my computer often. If you have any questions, on any of the products feel free to leave a comment or leave a message. I'm pretty good about following up, and enjoy playing around on Eden. If you're new to Eden make sure and check out the Forum as well- there are a lot of great discussions there.
I have six tattoos...:)
Welcome, Betty! I love the dragon on the back of my back!
In your post in the forum about age I loved your answer. I had a really bad week last week your answer made me laugh and smile I needed that it has been 1 hard ache after another. Thanks for making my week better. If I can do something to help you with your graph please let me know?
Thanks Fun Lover! I had a pretty bad week as well, so I'm glad that I made you smile. It's always nice to connect!
HI! Do you know who is the guy on Playgirl: Stripped DVD's cover? Can you tell me his name? He has a stunning butt Thanks!
Hey David.
I just pulled out the DVD. In order to find the answer to your question I'm going to actually play the DVD. Not feasible tonight, but I have that opportunity this Friday.
(email me - I might be running a fever tonight and completely forget!)
DBD is one of the best veteran reviewers on EF, she offers a sophisticated perspective on sex toys. I continually seek out her book reviews as she has a way of describing an author's work better than they ever could.
I look forward to every new book review because there are very few that could do it better than you!
Thank you Sleeping Dreamer! Coming from you that's high praise, and much appreciated!
