Of course its been discussed before and stuff has been tried to identify others in public (we're ofcourse thinking this while we're wandering around lagoon and playing the whole "do you think they are game" with each other) it sure would be nice to have that ability
Didn't there used to be some kind of black right handed wedding band thing? We seem to remember that, but never saw one in person. Maybe the hotwife anklet? lol. I think most of us have a bit of radar for each other.
We're in favor of forcibly branding all swingers in a place that's readily visible to everyone. Of course, we promise to keep it a secret and nobody will EVER find out the secret symbol that we all decide will depict the fact that we're disgusting perverts who fuck each other's spouses. Shhhhh! 
That would be awesome and take away the guessing part.
We've heard black ring on right hand. We have heard pineapples but they are the in thing right now and on everything so clearly can't count on that. We were thinking more long the lines of some sort of highlight beam that shines up into the air, like on Crazy Taxi (where it shows how much money the customer has but with a giant S for swingers), that only other swingers can see. That would make things WAY easier don't ya think? 
I am totally down with jewelry that sports a capital LS for LifeStyle. Maybe my name is Lindsey Stevens, or Lane Steel. They could be initials. Then again, if you meet someone, it could possibly be super awkward if it really is just their initials. Whoops

We went camping at an RV park and had other couples invite us to go partying with them. The way everyone acted, anyone would have confused them for being in the LS. After having a few drinks with the group at a bar, i had to use the restroom. One of the group also had to relieve himself. As we finished, i ask him "Do you guys swing"? He answered, " No, we like to two step". Imagine the embarrassment. It would be so much easier if there was a way to tell.
Next time go to Lagoon with another couple. French kiss your own spouse and then swap and French kiss your friends spouse, and make it very public. If two or more of you are bisexual, then do some same sex French kissing. Do this while wearing wet tee shirts with upside down pineapples on them and while waving your right hands around with a black ring on your ring finger and we pretty much guarantee someone will approach you. Unfortunately, it might be security, but you will get approached.
Seriously, we often wonder if there are any swingers in close proximity when we are out and about.

For anyone squeamish about my whole branding idea we could always just have all swingers get microchipped...and then we all carry around scanners. It might be a little awkward "scanning" people as they walk by us in a restaurant but it would avoid embarrassment from misidentifying people as swingers when they're really just dressed slutty.
Hell, the fact that we were then all carrying around scanners might be a good way to tell if someone else is a swinger too...or just a pet advocate looking for lost puppies. "Pardon me but are you lost and looking for your home or would you like to come to a hotel and fuck us?"

All of these are such brilliant ideas. It would make things so much easier.
I saw a young lady wearing a tee shirt that said “I fuck on the first date” at The Beerhive two weeks ago. I think maybe that cleared up that question if anyone was wondering if they might want to ask her out. Maybe we should go loud and proud? Maybe we just need a line of tee shirts that address our lifestyle?

But that wouldn't be very discreet. Not many people want to walk around wearing a t-shirt saying something like that on the outside chance they run into their bishop and/or great aunt. A sneakier and far more subtle way of determination is called for, I think. Also, one that wouldn't quickly become common knowledge among vanillas, as well, in this instant information age. Maybe a t-shirt that says "Scan me, I'm chipped!"

My bad. I forgot about that. I don't have a bishop and my great aunt is a total slut, who thinks the two of us are way too up tight. She is still seething over Craigslist dropping their personals.
Yes. Evildoers, perfect!!
A necklace pendant or watch type band that would glow green when another pendant or band (other than your partner) was in close proximity? The intensity of the glow could increase as you got closer, starting with a faint glow at 100m to full glow at less than 10 feet. Totally possible....

Or better yet, a necklace or collar that SHOCKS you when you're near another swinger! The BDSM crowd would buy DOZENS of them each!

I thought about that, but I think I might work on an interface for the Lovense Lush & Hush first, the closer you get, the stronger it gets. (might be a fun game, walking around in crowds...)
Or maybe you could just ask them.

Sorry, but as an older person trying to look more like a millennial, I will only communicate like them, I text, I email, I assume, but I will not converse!

Yeah, I'm thinkin' your ROI on that approach probably isn't gonna be very high...especially in a place like Utah. In fact, I'll bet you'll just outright offend FAR more people than you will ever get any kind of affirmative response. Statistics and odds are brutal bitches when you go out looking for needles in haystacks.

What, you don't Kik?!!? How fucking old ARE you?
There are phone apps that can show when others are nearby. I use one for hunting with the people I hunt with. So someone just needs to develop an app.

Super good idea!

Several apps like that HAVE been developed. One was actually offered to members of another swing site we're on. It failed miserably because people wouldn't, for various reasons, use it. We never used it personally. Some people apparently thought the potential for being outed as swingers was too great to risk using it. Another app was written by a friend of ours and it supposedly had some safeguards in it that he had designed but Apple wouldn't allow it in their app store...I guess because it's purpose was to help people swap spouses. \_(ツ)_/¯
I'd say 90% of people in the lifestyle we have met have heard of the black ring, and probably half have worn them for that reason. I rock mine all the time, and my wife whenever we are out on the town. Even if nothing ever comes of it, it is a fun reminder to yourself even.
