Being a member

When you register, we ask you to complete a short questionnaire. Your answers are cross-matched with answers provided by members of the opposite sex so we can provide you with choices having similar interests and opinions.

Do “opposites attract”?  While it’s true that someone else’s personality traits include qualities you don’t have, that’s not actually ‘opposites’. Research has shown that too many ‘opposites’ actually create conflict and discord in the relationship, and what was a ‘cute’ trait becomes ‘irritating’ or worse.

Positive, long-lasting relationships are best achieved with someone having most qualities like our own, with only certain qualities being different. Developing a meaningful relationship begins with an open mind, accepting the other person for who they are and not because you want to ‘change’ them.

It also requires good communication between the two of you, the ability to speak openly about feelings, and finding solutions that are benefcial to both of you and to the relationship.

Members can review the public photos and videos of every member of the opposite sex, and can read their profiles to learn more about them. If you want to connect, all you have to do is send them a Flirt.

Once the other member responds to your flirt with a flirt of their own, each will be connected to the Chats page of the other member.

Once you appear on the other member’s Chats page, you can begin Messaging them.

You can also go to the Visual Chats option and enjoy each other’s company using face-time.

Let’s say a man finds a woman he’s interested in. He can send her a ‘flirt’….a kiss, a rose or a heart. After he has done so, he waits for her response.

She will receive the man’s flirt and be able to go back and review his public profile, photos and video. If she’s interested and accepts his invitation, she can respond with a kiss or a heart of her own. As soon as she sends it, she’ll appear on his Chats page with her profile photo, Username, age and location, and he will likewise appear on hers. From that point on the two can message one another, or go to the Visual Chats option and enjoy each other’s company using face-time.

No matter where he is on the website, he will receive a notification that he has a new chat.

But the option to communicate is in the woman’s hands. She controls the conversation.

Among several other unique features, Quigley’s members receive 1) the ability to participate in a live video chat (which is exactly what it says), and 2) going on a ‘Virtual Date’ together, a trip we highly recommend before initiating an ‘in-person’ meeting.  Our ‘Virtual Date’ is more than just face-time with your date using your mobile device, laptop or PC, because to help you set the mood, Quigley Shores has numerous ‘virtual destinations’ you can choose from, along with audio selections to accompany your selection.

After you decide on a date and time, we’ll send automatic reminders to help you anticipate the upcoming event. When the date and time rolls around, you can start your virtual date with the click of a button, and will be transported to the destination you chose.

You’ll enjoy each other’s companionship in a romantic visual destination that’s enhanced by an ambience to match your moods. At the same time, neither of you will feel the ‘pressure’ or ‘stress’ some people often feel when they find themselves with someone new.

If you are uncomfortable with a conversation or experience with a member on Quigley Shores, you can simply put them in your Blocked Box. You can do that in one of three ways: 1) flip the ‘switch’ adjacent to that member’s photo on your Chat page to the OFF position; 2) use the “block me” switch on their Profile page; or 3) contact Guest Relations.

Choosing any of those options will immediately block that member from contacting you and remove each of you from the other’s chat page, effectively stopping further text communications. Any chats or flirts sent are kicked back to the sender with a message: “Return to Sender; Addressee Unknown”. The intended recipient never even knows about it.

You may unblock someone at any time by going to your Blocked Box, finding that member’s username and flipping the switch to ON. They will then appear back on your chat page, and you on theirs.
