I don't hate it. I am not fond of being approached as if I am in an open chatroom and I should be available to exchange three or 4 word emails. I have tried hard to be patient, on occasion, with some of these, and it accomplishes nothing. Truth be told, I feel sorry for these boys. Maybe they just don't understand how to make a reasonable approach. Or maybe they are only intersted in cyber and hoping to chat with a Domina. Since I clearly state I do not chat, I often shake My head in puzzlement over that common approach. And I get way too many that simply state they are very impressed with My profile and would like to get to know Me better. This is usually followed by a chat ID or a phone number. How much more obvious can it be that this is a generic spam? All My profile says is "not seeking, here for message boards, and I do not chat.". My stock answer to that, is to ask what it is that impressed them. I have yet to receive a reply on one of those. Guess that's like an "oops!" Yet I did waste My time with a polite challenge. A couple of well thought out sentences that shows a sincere interest in Me, along with an actually filled out profile, will get a response. I'm not complaining. I don't despise it. That takes way too much energy. I have better places to spend that. I do get tired of it, though. But it is part and parcel of participating on the internet. The complaints I do see are either from the people who are getting treated very rudely, (hell, I get treated rudely and like a piece of meat almost daily) or the people who are complaining about no responses to their emails, which is also equated to rudeness. I am not soliciting mail, in the first place. Yet, I do try to respond as much as is practical.

Ugh ... I'll jump in. First response: There's nothing wrong with one-liners. I just don't answer them. Pragmatic response: Because of the ratio of submales to women dominants, I have to be careful with the limited energy I have. If you don't say anything about yourself, how do I know if I'm interested? I'm not going to spend lots of time asking you questions about yourself if you don't give me something to start with. Quid pro quo response: Why should I put out more effort than you? I have a well-written profile, and I do want to see that the person contacting me has put in effort to do the same. Barring a language disability, if you can't put effort into a letter and a profile, it augers bad things about you as a submissive or play partner. People who are particularly annoying are those who say "I love who you are and what you say about yourself!" and then say ... nothing ... about themselves. Urp. Aesthetic response: Oh. So sad.

there is nothing wrong with one liners as long as they are good one liners. why should i bother to respond to some one who has not taken the time to read my profile? i know it is long but at least a lot of the questions that they will ask will be on there. the emails i hate are the ones that ask me for my yahoo or msn id and when i tell them per Master's rules i am not allowed to give that put till i get to know some one of three things happen 1. they dont respond even though i have said lets chat here and get to know each other. 2. they call me a witch ( with a b) and other nasty names 3. they tell me to lie to my Master and add them any ways. well for 1 and 2 i just shurg my sholders and get on with my life as for number 3 i would never do that seeing as my Master ( Kiledar) checks my eamils and freinds list every day so why get my self in trouble for some one to talk to me on messagers when they can talk to me here threw emails?

Kiledar -> RE: So Whats The Big D ILL With 1 Liners? (3/27/2006 9:35:18 PM)
I think I should clarify something here that Ja lina said. Yes I do look through her conversations and emails. Some might think that is a little restrictive. Its not that I feel she would do somethign behind My back but more so I know how others are treating her. There are a few of her friends where her conversations with them never are checked by Me because she is helping them out through a personal problem but these are also people I know well. So you dont have to worry about telling her anything you would wish her to keep private. Things like that she does and will UNLESS it touches on Our relationship or Me personally.

Do not take it personally, but I feel that anyone that has to go through their partners mail and contacts has issues such as insecurity. There is no excuse to go through their email if you trust them. To Me that last post sounded like a guilty conscience. It probably would have been better if it was not posted at all. I know My wife's passwords because I administer My network. I have never used them. I never snoop around in her stuff because I trust her. Sometimes she gets a jackass sending her ignorant messages and we read them together, laughing at the poor excuse of a jerk, but I have to say nothing. She stops them dead in their tracks. As for one-liners, I got a simple one-liner a couple of days ago. "Hello Sir". That was it. I took the time to respond and it turns out she is a very nice young lady. We now chat on MSN and I find her to be very pleasant to talk to.

Personally I don't have anything against 1 liners...except when all they type is messenger? or have you got messenger? I think it's utterly rude..as a 1st pm and they don't even bother saying hi or bye just.. messenger? it pisses me off[:@]

fastlane -> RE: So Whats The Big D ILL With 1 Liners? (3/28/2006 11:33:20 AM)
1 line her? Fastlane grabs his cane. Hell no, I'll pinstipe her pretty Ass!

quote: ORIGINAL: Real0ne Why is there so much animosity toward people who write one liners? Why is this so DESPISED AND HATED? Because they lack imagination, personality and depth [8\|]. Brightspot Everyone acts like there is no greater insult than receiving a 1 liner from someone. So whats up? Do these people feel they are so "special" that they deserve a 1100 page novel for an introduction? Frankly most of the "very nicest"* people i have met have come into my life after firing off a short 1 to 2 liner and a conversation and friendship, and in more than one case a relationship developed from there. It seems to me a one liner is a more natural way to approach someone. How many people have you ever met in a grocery store that have handed you a 6 page resume as an introduction? Seems to me that one liners should be condoned, not condemned. your thouhgts?

ElvesUK -> RE: So Whats The Big D ILL With 1 Liners? (3/29/2006 3:16:24 AM)
It is usually the content of the one liner more than the actual fact it is a one line comment. Most are "i like u wanna f*ck" or "AS:L". One line can run into a paragraph :) One line that shows you have read the profile and actually have something to contribute would be a nice change. S&E

medslave -> RE: So Whats The Big D ILL With 1 Liners? (3/31/2006 11:54:28 AM)
hmmm...Well i have given a one line responses a few times, but it usually was in the context of sending someone a quick note to pay homage to something that was in their profile and not expecting to hear back. Now if only i could get more than a one liner back...

james66 -> RE: So Whats The Big D ILL With 1 Liners? (3/31/2006 11:57:48 AM)
don't often try a one liner....it p***es women off I hear......there again, the 50 liners are a rare thing too.....

RavenMuse -> RE: So Whats The Big D ILL With 1 Liners? (3/31/2006 1:21:08 PM)
Admittedly RO, my first responce to seeing a thread or post by you would count as a one liner... "Here he goes again, what crap is he spouting THIS time"[;)] If someone isn't going to put in effort to make a good first impression then they are unlikely to put in much effort anywhere else. So what if you have lower standards, I don't and that is all that matters for me[:)]

A one line zinger that's intended to either create humor, be thought provoking, or is a reference to something specific - say a thread on the message board, a journal entry, etc. is perfectly acceptable to my mind. Those, however, are not: '47 yo mwm dildo training forced femme golden msg me @ yadayadyahell' or 'ur hot lets meet' or 'nice pics' (which I always respond to with 'thank you' - no more, no less) or a personal fav - 'fat bitch bet you can't dominate me.' Of course, I'm spelling much better than these usually do. This is the sort of 'one liner' I'd bet you're hearing complaints about. We get a LOT of this sort of stuff. I block by default. After a while the BS stops.

Oh my, I haven't read this entire thread but I'm predicting you get some ugly, judgemental responses. Me personally, more power to ya both. If it's workin' for you then great. I don't require justification for any personal dynamic two consenting adults engage in (although given the example you gave regarding personal conversations with friends I can understand why you might want to publically clarify). I can think of numerous instances and reasons for this sort of restriction to be suitable and they don't have anything to do with insecurity, jealousy, or any other moniker some politically correct zealot with a little bit of knowledge about psychology & self-help and a knee jerk reaction may try to mound upon you. I predict you will see some of that, though. Pity.

After a while the BS stops. Let's not forget these gems, taken from only the last week of my personal mails received here(no identifying info included): hello Mistress, how are you today? hi mistress. only i want to serve you.. i love this life.. can we chat?(not sure if this one counts....was more than one sentence, but fit on one line) You are incredibly beautifull Ms. i tink u are gorgeous hi could i possibly have permission to ask what your chest measurements are? i just like to fantasize That's a sampler of just this week, and I cut and pasted to ensure 100% accuracy...do they make me mad?? The answer is no, because they are not worth my time....do they rate a reply????Snorts, again, they are not worth my time....so, it's no big deal to get a one liner, but don't count on a reply when that is what you send. When I have gotten truly complimentary emails that are only one or two sentences long, I take the time to thank them for their compliment, even though in my profile, I have one very specific instruction on something to include in emails to me to show they read my profile. If I feel that the compliments is sincere, I know they are not writing with the hopes of a relationship, and I do make exceptions in that instance. Actually, I have found personally, if indeed I have been emailed a novel as an email, when my female dominant friends from this site and I talk, in many cases, they got the same long drawn out, supposedly well thought out email. I prefer the middle ground, where neither side is counting words, but looking at the meaning and intent of the words written.

SadisticDesire -> RE: So Whats The Big D ILL With 1 Liners? (3/31/2006 9:08:56 PM)
I don't really have anything against one liners, though I DO have something against the ones that say " get ready to worship me B*tch" or " Do you have a gag reflex?" things like that really frost my butt. So i just put a little journal entry in my profile that basically says, if you send me crap, your going to get crap back. Dont cry about it when you get your feelings hurt lmao....(not that half of THOSE people actually READ your profile to begin with) [>:]

quote: ORIGINAL: perverseangelic Short e-mails aren't a problem. It's the one-line e-mails that give the reader NOTHING to respond to that irritate me. People get up in arms about people not responding to profiles, but sometimes there's really no way to respond. For example, an exchange I just had-- Them-"Hi" Me- Hello. Them- How are you? Me- Fine. May I ask what prompted you to write? Them: Ur pictures r hot. Me- Thank you, I appreciate the compliment. Them: So how r you? Me: Fine. You? Them: Kewl. You? Me: I'm doing well. Was there something you wanted to talk about? Them: Nah, just seeing how u r. Me: Ok. I'm fine. Them: Good. I'm fine 2. What are you supposed to DO with an exchange like that? There's no opportunity for real conversation at all. LMAO I get IM chat's that go that boring and ultimately get deleted as do emails of the same type. Emails like that bore me, irrate/annoy me. Like everyone else has said, it gives you nothing to go on. There's no getting a 'real' conversation out of that. People often think that because they are bored that it is okay to bring you into their boredom.

Usually you don't have to ask your friends. Wait a few weeks to a few months and they'll send the exact same letter again. They're so busy blanket emailing that they forget to keep track of who they've sent it to! It always makes me laugh.

JazzDaddy -> RE: So Whats The Big D ILL With 1 Liners? (4/1/2006 9:35:47 AM)
Well, as a writer, I have to admit I am a bit biased against one liner e-mails. I don't think they show much creativity, and they give me the impression that you're sending out a form e-mail to a bunch of people, seeing who responds. I am most certainly not looking for a novella, but I do like to see an e-mail that shows you have read through my profile and lets me know which portions you think you connect with.
