littlesarbonn -> Responding to one liners without being rude (7/1/2009 1:17:23 PM)
This has been happening to me a lot lately, and honestly I have yet to figure out how to respond to the situation, but I'll receive a one liner from a dominant woman who says something like "You sound interesting/intriguing/or whatever." Basically, they say they either liked my profile or they liked my posts (usually they don't give me enough information to even indicate which). Now, I can do the usual cheeky response and be rude, which will end up with being blocked and never having a conversation in the future (which hopefully will kill off the 100 or so responses here of the people who have the greatest one liner response that serves to insult the woman, thus leaving her to block me forever but allows someone on the boards to believe he or she is really funny because they think they're the only ones capable of coming up with an insult as a response). I've tried just opening up a conversation, which pretty much always ends up with the exact same result. So, how do you succeed in going from the one liner to actually getting a conversation going? I've tried, "tell me about yourself please" and that gets nowhere. It's like they contact me hoping for some super subbie response, and I don't have it. Then it always leaves me thinking that I screwed up when all I did was respond to a one liner that came out of the dark.

I'd recommend a cut and paste polite response that isn't much longer, like, "Thank you for your interest, Ma'am. I would be open to conversing in more depth if You wish it; otherwise, please have a good day and thank you for the compliment."

I can relate[8\|] it totally bums me out. I usually respond to a one liner too..and then maybe get responded by another one liner..and then well I just kinda end up with a g'bye[8\|]

Now you have Me wondering if I've ever sent you a one liner. LOL. It's probably poor advice, but why not thank them for the compliment, pay them one in return, and ask a question. That's a three sentence investment. If nothing else, at least it's not rude and gives them the opportunity to respond to whatever you asked.

Being blocked wears off in six months or so. There's no permablock on the site right now.

FullfigRIMAAM1 -> RE: Responding to one liners without being rude (7/1/2009 1:35:31 PM)
If someone sent me an appropriate one liner, I would look at his profile, and if I find him interesting, respond with a thank you, and compliment/note regarding something I find in common between us. There is however, no need for a rude response, unless the one liner sent to you was rude. M

So, how do you succeed in going from the one liner to actually getting a conversation going? I'd suggest looking at her profile for the material with which to give her the verbal equivalent of a quick tickle in the ribs.

For the last one, the profile was less forthcoming than her email message.

It doesn't sound very hopeful, then. I have a feeling you're not going to be greatly interested in someone who has little to say for herself. Unless you feel inspired in some way by her pictures . . . One thing that never seems to fail is to tell her that she looks like a Hollywood actress whose name you can't remember. She'll pester you till you finally do 'remember'. Works at parties, anyway. [;)]

If I get something similar from a sub sometimes I write back.. "ty for your message do you have any questions?" IN this way I try to get them to ask questions and have asked one myself.. but generally as you say the reponse is usually piddly..at best.. I once tried this back and forth giving what I got.. from yep...to nope..to dunno for12 sentences til I gave up. It amazes me that ppl cannot say...I found it intriguing wher eyou said.....CAN YOU TELL ME MORE? or I am interested in.. and see you are too..Can you tell me more about yourself.... SUCH AS..................... and the super subbie response..??? RESERVE that for the deserving GQ ps..I like cheeky[;)]

PeonForHer -> RE: Responding to one liners without being rude (7/1/2009 3:41:32 PM)
It works on men, too. Actually, it was a woman who taught me the trick - by playing it on me at a party. So ner.

Venatrix -> RE: Responding to one liners without being rude (7/1/2009 3:51:53 PM)
You fell for that? Hahahahahahahaha. Erm, sorry. I'll be nice now. Actually, I think I once told you that you reminded me of Roddy McDowell, and you got all bent out of shape over it. There's just no pleasing some people.

PeonForHer -> RE: Responding to one liners without being rude (7/1/2009 4:02:39 PM)
Was that before or after I told you you looked like Kirk Douglas?

Venatrix -> RE: Responding to one liners without being rude (7/1/2009 4:04:05 PM)
You bloody sod. I look like Michael Douglas, not Kirk. Hmmph.

Beefed up chest, wig, bit of lippy, thighboots, face covered in lacquer or some kind of thin vinyl - I could pass for Cher, I reckon . . .[;)] Seriously, I think that it's best to write something short, intelligent and amusing in reply to a one-liner cmail. Though that can be a struggle, admittedly.

Politesub53 -> RE: Responding to one liners without being rude (7/1/2009 4:33:11 PM)
I have only had a few one liners, all from scammers.

Toppingfrmbottom -> RE: Responding to one liners without being rude (7/1/2009 4:33:57 PM)
I got a one liner, and I said hi , then I replied with a joke from a tv show I saw then explained the joke and then said well it's not so funny if it has to be explained, and he said you're strange, and I said why thank you but it beats a one liner, and he had nothing to say after that. quote: ORIGINAL: subtlebutterfly I can relate[8\|] it totally bums me out.

PeonForHer -> RE: Responding to one liners without being rude (7/1/2009 4:36:10 PM)
Me too. If they've not been scammers, I've usually assumed they haven't really wanted to open a conversation anyway.
