MeetFighters News
FightPedia, Mobile App and More
It's been a while since the last site news. Let's see what's been happening!
FightPedia
I am looking for FightPedia editors! FightPedia is a "wiki" for MeetFighters, concentrating on topics related to combat sports and the site itself. I consider it an experiment in collaborative editing. Let's see how it goes! For now, it is completely empty except for some placeholder pages. It's up to YOU (as in, every member of this site) to make it something great.
If you want to contribute and shape FightPedia, please drop a comment below. Do explain what it is that you want to add or change.
FightPedia is available for preview here.
Mobile App
Work has began on a MeetFighters Mobile App targeting the Android and iOS platforms. The app itself is in very early stages of development, largely in a pre-alpha, proof-of-concept state. I expect to see a first release sometime around mid-April. More information will be coming early April.
We are not yet ready for an alpha test, but post a comment if you have ideas for mobile app features.
New Messaging Page
I am working on a new messaging code, something cleaner and more streamlined than what we have now. There is a beta version for the adventurous here. It has most basic features in place, but lacks that certain spit and polish.
XXX Gallery
I am considering the option of posting photos that are not family friendly in profile galleries. There is obviously some demand for this sort of attraction. On the other hand, there is a risk that too much sugar could attract folk who are not interested in fighting.
Before I commit to this, I want to ask Your opinion on the matter!
Would you like to see XXX photos in profile galleries?

Miscellaneous
Behind the scenes, a lot of improvements went into the site code:
- New photo and video upload code that leverages new features in web browsers.
- Lots of code cleanup and optimization.
- Reinstated the CloudFlare CDN for faster page load times globally.
- The number of unread messages is shown in the page title. You can see when you have new messages with a glance at your browser's tab bar!
- Some usability enhancements for the Help and Support page.
- The search results and user list have expandable parts for accessing the dialog, sending a new message, etc.
- Your private notes can be sorted by country.
- The dialog page is broken into multiple pages if you have exchanged over 100 messages with someone. It's not unheard of...

3/01/2015 12:56 PMGreat news and well done.
- I'm willing to help out with the FightPedia project.
- I'm willing to alpha test the mobile app when it's ready
- I've had a look at the new messaging page, great improvement!
- I'm very much against allowing XXX-rated pics in profiles and have voted against it. Like you hinted at in your own words on the subject, 'there is the risk that too much sugar would attract folk who aren't interested in fighting.' Allowing XXX-rated pics in profiles could shift the focus of the site somewhat, if not significantly.

anathema1032 (1)
3/01/2015 2:16 PMSorry to say I would like to see stronger pictures on the site, yes there is a risk involved but since this is a fetish that is mainly bisexual and homosexual male orientated the simple fact is that a lot of the users here would like pictures in general that are not so restricted in terms of content while balancing that with the continuing need for genuine images.
Keep them to the galleries yes and make it clear that you will have to approve to view them and it is better than being told your picture does not meet current criteria, afterall there is a fair degree of people using this site as hook ups for more than wrestling

3/01/2015 3:53 PMI would not like to see XXX pics or videos, for an stretegic reason.
A lot of wrestlers and fighters -mostly the straight and young guys, who are the best challengers against guys in our forties, as me- probably will go far away from this site if they see this site as a sex site for men.
We are here to fight and wrestle. It could be something else, for sure, but we need to build a site in position to comprehend all wrestlers.
Sex is an intimate issue of people, leave it there.
We are fighters!
The Kestrel (47 )
3/01/2015 4:08 PM(In reply to this)
I could not agree more, there are other sites that promote xxx rated content, fighting sites included, it would be a shame to put off the straight wrestlers and allow guys with no intention to wrestle to swamp this site.

FighterBA (45 )
3/01/2015 4:38 PMThe core identity of this site is wrestling and fights, we should stay firmly there.
Evrybody in the world should think: "You want to arrange a fight or wrestling match via internet, there is a site to do that clean: Meetfighters".

3/01/2015 5:22 PM*"CloudFlare" will be very good for the site. It's used to protect many community websites I use and makes the domain somewhat safer from tech-savvy idiots, DDoS attacks, etc.
*Obviously I'll be a fightpedia (thankfully we didn't call it fightopedia) editor. For now copying + editing down content from Wikipedia would be a good start, then we can put our own stamp.
*XXX pictures in private is fine. In public, you run the risk of this website being considered porn, which is a little bit more complicated than at present, even though the site is already 18+. It's not treated the same way everywhere. Not to mention, in some parts of the world, combat sports are okay, but porn isn't so much.
*The new messaging app is better than the status quo in some respects. The primary issue right now is when you first open a folder, new messages or unread, etc. any messages that appear don't fill the width of the frame. It's only when you open a message, and the message history fills the frame, ping-pong style. Ping pong style is good, and will appeal to people used to smartphone messaging apps, which I imagine is more & more of us. Widen the initial message appear to fill the empty space.
*I'm up for testing the Android app of this site. However, I'm not sure if we'd all be better served by enhancing a shiny & new mobile site, regardless of mobile OS. Android/iOS apps would have to be installed in two ways, 1) Be on the Play store/iTunes, which would include a number of hurdles. Apple's approach to adult content in particular could be problematic. 2) A direct download + install app, which would either require jail-breaking (iOS) or install from anywhere on Android. I'm fine to do both, but not everyone else it, it'll be a potential hurdle.

I am aware that Apple's walled garden is hard to get into. The android release will most likely come several months earlier.

wrestling82 (55)
3/01/2015 5:50 PMHappy to help in testing the iOS App.
Keep in mind that Apple don't allow xxx images throught their apps and even images with soft nudity.
Regarding XXX gallery tab will be a solution and the option for each user to activate the tab in his profile.
Else we can still upload it on our private gallery and send them individualy on messages.

3/01/2015 6:47 PMI have no problem with allowing XXX Rated pics here of its members. We are all adults here and as long they are not pics of actual sex acts, then they should be allowed. There are nude sports/ artistic type photos and there are porno types of pics.
I belong to other "sports/ fitness" sites that include nude shots and they are just as popular. Just because this is a "wrestling" site to meet other wrestlers & fighters no doubt many guys visit or join for the eye candy of seeing really, inshape guys who enjoy wrestling. Sex is always a factor in any similar group. I was raised a nudist by my family starting at 10 yrs of age so i was "exposed" to male nudity at a very young age. I attended many sports events or nude spas/ gyms where nudity was allowed over my years and sex was never the single issue of joining or participating. Its also that many guys here are wrestlers, athletic and have great gym bodies that they have worked hard for so why is it wrong to be proud of your body.

Richard (2)
3/01/2015 10:23 PMI agree with Kurtz. This site is for those whose main interest is to wrestle or box. If we allow XXX rated photos or videos we will attract people who are more interested in sexual activity than in fighting. I think it would lower the whole tone of the site. At the moment everyone is at liberty to say on their profile if they either want sex or are open to it. Surely that is enough.
anathema1032 (1)
3/01/2015 10:39 PM(In reply to this)
That excludes those for whom the wrestling is linked to sexual arousal, more pertinently it says to those members who use the site and who find sexual attraction to each other through their shared fetish that they don't matter as much as those interested in "pure wrestling"
Sorry the fact that the site might allow a few pictures in galleries so that means you get to chose to view them, it's not like their erect and naked penis is going to be thrust out of your screen at you.
We are all adult enough to make choices on the material we chose to view and denying some the choice on whether to post xxx images or others to view them strimkes me as unfair
The Kestrel (47 )
3/01/2015 10:58 PM(In reply to this)
The guys wanting to see and share xxx content have an abundance of other sites to look at for this, including wrestling sites, that is a choice available for them.
A large amount of guys come to this site purely for wrestling currently have that here, that is their choice.
If some of the ideas above are implemented, like only site donors get to see xxx content, then it will become just like other sites in effect with payment required for full benefits, which from what i understandis a direction this site was not aiming for.
If xxx content is permitted into galleries with nothing required to see them then, then instead of upsetting those wanting it, we would be ignoring the wishes of guys on the other end of the scale.
Sadly one side will lose out on the arguement, since there are other sites that provide xxx content, and not forgetting that xxx pixtures can still be sent privately if such anatomy is a deciding factor, i'd side with maintaining it as private only.
I personally struggle to see how it can be unfair to those who have many other options, when you are up for squeezing out the wrestling focused site for the others. As you say, we are adults, so if xxx content helps sell a match up then we are also adult enough to ask for the pictures rather than hoping to come across any in galleries.

grappa50 (6)
3/02/2015 12:45 AMhaving read all the comments i have decided to vote don't know purely because i think option questions are what are called "closed questions" ie they don't allow for variations it a yes or no option from what i have read the no comments are a definite no where as the yes most want see yes but with restrictions
the site is always going to attract guys who are just wanting sex ive had a few offers already lol we need to be adult we can all say no
i also agree with the prospect of providing an income for the site and wouldn't complain about a reasonable one off fee to view xxx content
as the site continues to grow it is going to be more and more expensive to maintain quality and develop
so i would rather keep the main site free and and charge for the xxx content for those that want it after all most xxx sites already charge
FighterBA (45 )
3/02/2015 2:47 AM(In reply to this)
I think it should not be any kind of xxx content, not even payed.
This excludes nudity if you want to take a pic of your whole body completely naked. But I think that is the limit.
Hey, this is a wrestling site, not an XXX site or a porn site.

Tigerrific (127)
3/02/2015 3:09 AMThank you for the work in improving an already awesome website! I'll be glad to contribute to Fightopedia.
As for allowing XXX content, I voted against it because I think it carries more risks than benefits. Many of my reasons have already been stated in the comments above (ie. strong association to porn rather than a fighter's site, banning of site in some countries, potentially creating an uneasy social environment for straight guys, complications on arrangement for access etc.)
Keeping the XXX as private attachments is working well.

3/02/2015 5:53 AMThis site is the most fully featured and member-service site I have ever seen. THANK YOU FOR THE EXCELLENT WORK !!!
This is a comment on issues not raised in this site-news posting.
Would you please consider adding features that make it easy to search profiles for female members, and also a way to search for a cyber-fighting interest, please. These things can be listed in profiles, and here is the new member lists in the newsletter data bases for this. Also, I want to suggest the idea of a cyberfight chat log page.
What is the value here, consistent with the interests you have in creating the community of meetfighters?? This serves the enjoynent and participation of members who are a very small minority group at this predominately male-member site. Women in combat sport (my interest here) from play 'rasslin' to serious MA training in box, jiu-jitsu etc are always struggling with finding a place to express and advance their interest. It seems to me that the difficulty in finding the few women members is a factor in women becoming inactive here.
I am do cyber fight now due to health risks from injuries. I am*condemned* to cyber, but have eventually found some fun here and a a sweet bit of a taste of past RL fight emotions even in cyber. And simply wanting to have fun with it is reason enough. Yet I think I have seen some evidence of a prejudice against cyber fight. Let those who want to post pics with explicit sexual content do so and post content warnings so those who don't want it can avoid it. Give those who seek it an easier way to get with people thy want to be with as many at this site should know is right to do; those who don't think that necessary have a way to avoid that as well.
A chat fight log of the boxing match "Kat vs Dan" on Proboxer's blog whows how well cyber fight logs can express a fight,and how those doing them can competitive fight experience in them.
Please consider this as you review ways to improve this already excellent site.
