Why are there so many people on this site that seem to be game players? They say they are searching, you take the time to write to them, and not just stupid one liners, and they either don't respond at all or do respond and say they are interested but just play with your mind.

They don't respond: They are either bombarded with 100 plus messages a day or they just aren't interested with you.

They respond only to play: Well, it's the internet. Some just have a fantasy life on it while others or just curel. Then you have those who truely are more buys than they realize to make real time for you.

Either way, welcome to the internet. The goal is to stay focused and weed people out one by one till you find one who is right for you and you're right for them. It'll happen.

Many will not respond to someone who has no profile. As for the rest, it's the net, it happens, it will continue to happen. Meeting at local munches and other r/t venues usually garners more in the way of prospects. You know for sure they are interested enough to show up, and don't, generally, come just to gawk.

Good luck and welcome to the Rock.

*shrugs* its happens. Such is life on the internet. If you are looking seriously in real time, you might do well to see if you can find a local group.

I like a descriptive narrative, that tells me something of the person writing it, and what he wants.

You've only been here a month and your that discouraged? Wait..it only gets better. *cackles sarcastically*

Seriously though, being that there are alot more men than women here, the ladies can afford to be picky...you have to stand out, make them take notice, so they become interested.

Good luck to ya!

Maybe they are game players because they wanna be but can't (or won't) be the real thing. Who knows? Who cares? Suck it up and keep going. That's the best advice I can give you.

I agree This is the internet and so many bored ass people on here playing games.. I do rt and Online Training I do not scam people as I want them coming back I had ontte guy say he was getting me a gc from amazon for a small amount so Im like ok well when I receive it I will begin (knowing they can be cancelled before they are sent thru the amazon system) he kept asking for a session and to talke his word for it and he could send confirmation.

I Still declined until I received confirmation for myself from them Well that was Friday and still nothing and he has the nerve to say Im fake...... Just because he wanted to probally whack off for a freebie and I plainly said NO WAY been scammed doing that before.

With some guys/girls you just have a way of knowing they are gameplayers just by the way they type or the wording they have... I am starting to notice a pattern.... I have noticed all the people that have the ids Blackmail are full of s*it maybe not all but most.

Good Luck everyone for finding "real" people

It's a big playing field out there and many of the sub/slaves do in fact receive a lot of mail. The shoe fits both ways too, much of what they receive is just senseless garbage or cut and paste messages, so they are savy to the workings of the net also. You will have to somehow convey that your interest is sincere. Someone mentioned something about a "filled out" profile as well. I can honestly say, even from my perspective when I am looking, if you can't jot down a few things that you feel are interesting about yourself, it's quite likely they aren't going to find you very interesting either.

sorry shortened language (habit) Gift certificate

Also I get so many copy and pasted emails and sometimes from the same person numerous times I myself just keep things short... Also if they dont have the time to read my whole profile and ask for things that I mention I dont do then I dont have time for them

Agreeing with the other that there is not a word typed about yourself. However, it does appear you are casting a pretty wide net regarding for whom you are searching. You list most of who could fall into the submissive and switch category. That, coupled with your lack of typed information, (it is always quite easy to select a user name and check off boxes) would tell Me that you are looking for play, either real time or cyber. If real time, get thee to your local party where you might get lucky. If cyber, chatrooms and web cams abound.
Good luck, and welcome to the message boards.

As many have stated already..... the door swings both ways. As a Domme seeking a more local sub, I have the same issues... lots of players, wannabes or even worse... those that think this is ALL about sex and want to be my "sex slave". HA!

Take your time, converse... and then it won't take long for the good to seperate from the bad.

My best to you in your quest.

When i don't reply (which is rare) it's for only a couple of reasons. (i'm speaking in generalities here, which isn't fair nor does it apply to all..) Often times there's no description in their profile (the cookie cutter list just doesn't tell me much) which suggests to me that there's a lack of motivation to share even the most simple things about themselves. Trying to get information out of such a person is often times like pulling teeth, and i just don't go in for that kinda thing. If they do actually have a profile all i get in a letter is a copy and paste of that profile into letter form which shows me a lack of creativity and perhaps laziness. Crude or vulgar emails (i.e., wanna fuck while you look for mr. right, or on your knees bitch, I AM YOUR MASTER!) don't get a reply, nor do i write back married men, or men who appear to be looking for wanking material.

Having said all that i do try to reply to all, even those that fall into those areas above, but sometimes, if i'm tired, stressed or receive a letter from someone that sounds nice, or truly interested, i'd rather spend my time and energies writing to them than a no thanks letter.

Good luck in your search...

To MasterBillMI...You will adjust,as all have.And as someone stated you will begin to know the difference between players and serious replies.Of course there are some who are very good at being a player, but that is true of the human race not just those in the "life".Ask yoursellf this...would I be as surprised by this behavior if I were in say a vanilla 40's chat room?would I be as surprised by this if I were say on yahoo personals?....think about it.....be well....Tempting

As has been said already, your lack of any personal information about yourself could cause a lot of people to bypass you. I've spoken with you several times, and so i know what a kind gentleman you are, but not everybody has the time to spend corresponding with someone with whom they know nothing about. Submissives who are actively searching often receive a great deal of mail, so they have that ability to pick and choose to speak with the one who's profile sparks their interest. I myself do not have that problem, as i'm here for friends only. A few short paragraphs in the given portion of your profile gives you a great opportunity to show the kind of person you are, and from what i've noticed, not nearly enough people take that opportunity. There's a very nice man who sends me the occasional message, and he always makes me laugh just because he's got such a bizarre sense of humor. Admittingly, i wrote him first and complimented him on how much his profile made me laugh.

I'm sure there are plenty of game players on this site, both male and female alike, but to put all of the ones you've written into that category is unfair. Just because a female has no interest in you doesn't make her a game player. Of course, she could at least give you the courtesy of a reply, even if it's a short "no thanks" type of thing, but as others here will tell you, not all seem to think that's an obligation. There could be many reasons you don't receive a reply.

No worries though, i still like you and think you're a very nice gentleman!

because playing spades is fun. So is solitaire and so alot of games. Like Chess alot too.

And i suppose if you asked me about spades or some other game i'd reply with a one liner.

"spades is fun"

But then, i'm really into talking bout it, so i could completely see myself ignoring you and probably thinking you're wierd for asking me about games and i might block you.

That is probably the problem you are running into. People think you're wierd

Sorry to say that this is the internet... you are bound to find players. I just wanted to let you know that I have met several from this site that are not players. You just have to weed them out. And, alas, that does take time.

Welcome to the internet China.. here we feature the Good, The Bad and the plain Butt Ugly..... It takes all sorts to make any socety especially a cyber one and with a group as big as CM you have to expect the unexpected.... If you have a look through this forum's archives or do a search you'll see we get at least one similar or identical thread a month, sometimes weekly, so if no one seems to be taking you seriously that is why.. We get bone tired answering threads which repeat on a predictable regularity.

Grab a can of Fosters, a glass of good single malt scotch or a jar of Ozarks 'Shine and relax.. You'll get the hang of things mate.

Cheers
