I think the improvements on response rates is good. 4 days is a bit tight for those of us who only use our laptops to email replies, because sometimes I am away from my laptop for a few days but it is a good step.
What I would like to see cracked down on is caledars that are greyed out all the time. I assume those people are still paying for their memberships but are completely inactive. Even if there was a way to exclude them from a search I would appreciate that. No one that has a grey calendar should have the privilege of being on a search at all. It is so frustrating to people looking for a place, when you go to the calendar and the people obviously don’t want to participate in any exchanges at all.
Thanks,
Nancy

Speaking as a grey calendar person that is fine with me but most of the recent requests I have accepted are for grey days. I live by the beach in the summer and most of the time we stay but if I get an interesting proposal I will accept it. If I am going away I will open it for the long weekend. I don’t know what the future holds and who will be living with me so I can’t put fall and winter exchanges on the calendar now. I do also give a fair number of no’s but so do people with open calendars I imagine. I think your proposal would be a disadvantage to requestors. Not everyone is a months long exchanger or planner. Some casually share their homes on an occasional basis. I think if those requests disappear it less problem for me than a searcher.
