ORIGINAL: DarkSteven If they don't give me enough material to decide if I want to chat with them or not, I don't. Well, that basically eliminates 90% of the profiles on this site. The few people who actually have multiple photos of themselves and detailed descriptions are likely getting flooded with messages. quote:
ORIGINAL: DarkSteven I don't refer people to my profile. I send them a message that will let them know what I'm like. If they want to look at my profile after that, then they will. What kind of message do you send? "Hey, check out my profile"? Referring people to my profile lets people know exactly what I'm like and what I have to offer. That's why I do it. I've got a dozen photos uploaded and multiple paragraphs written there for a reason. Seems pointless to have to regurgitate that info via PM's when it's already there for all to see. The types of messages I send depend on what I'm given to work with. I have multiple message templates which I add to or modify to suit the individual recipients. The more info that is in their profile, the more customized my message to them will be. I do take the time to read everyone's profile and journal entries, unless they are filled with pages of poetry or similar nonsense. I'm never going to eschew templates because let's face it: the majority of people whom I contact won't even respond to me. I'm not going to spend hours coming up with creative things to say to people who have yet to even acknowledge my existence. I've already put more effort into my own profile than the vast majority of users on this site, so there it is. quote:
ORIGINAL: littlewonder When I get unsolicited messages to check out someone's profile it's a sure bet that I won't check it out. lol I don't see why you'd adopt that attitude. It only takes a few seconds to glance at a profile and determine whether a person might be of interest to you. It's just as easy to spot a fake. Sounds like you have a bit of an attitude problem. I look at dozens, sometimes hundreds of profiles everytime I come here and message about half that amount. Again, it doesn't take much time or effort to do this. quote:
ORIGINAL: WyldHrt The amusing part here is that you likely hit the spam filter by sending c/p mails to 18-25 y/o 'women' with model pics and nearly nonexistent profiles. Anyone who has been here more than a few weeks can tell you why that is just hilarious. You don't need to tell me why it's hilarious, I know how to spot obvious fakes and I know that the site is loaded with them. I'm well aware of the statistical reality that the majority of profiles for submissive females ages 18-25 (probably even up to 35) are going to be fakes. It's a numbers game. I'm going to contact lots of people anyway. Many will be fakes. Others will not be interested, and I'll never hear back from them. But I'll still get more responses with this approach than "putting all my eggs in one basket," so to speak. I rarely contact profiles with model pics. Real photos are one of the first things I look for to determine whether a person is fake or not. I can usually spot this without even entering their profile. quote:
ORIGINAL: WyldHrt I did, and will suggest that you stop messaging American 'womyn', unless they indicate that they are into stereotypes and male chauvinism. Hate to tell you, but you are 'that guy' that most female subs avoid, ignore, or report. I doubt that. What is female submission if not the embodiment of a male chauvinist philosophy? I'm not sure how any females can claim with a straight face that they want a man to humiliate, dehumanize, objectify, own and degrade them, etc...and still claim to have a conventional (non-exploitative) view of sexual relationships. Newsflash: The types of men who do those kinds of things are male chauvinists, practically by definition. Yes, there are some highly unrealistic people on this site who want someone to alternately beat them and then act like prince charming. The majority of those people are wimmin, which leads me to my next point: Stereotypes exist because they have validity to them. They're also called empirical generalizations, and they form the basis for nearly all knowledge in the social sciences. quote:
ORIGINAL: gungadin09 i actually found Your honesty refreshing, if not the views expressed in Your profile. But she's right. Unless You're just trolling for pussy, You'll have better success by pouring more energy into fewer profiles, than by asking scores of girls to come look at Your profile. When i receive that kind of email, i automatically don't take the person seriously. And how are You supposed to know who You're interested in with so many one sentence profiles? i don't know, maybe *ignore* those profiles and focus on the ones that actually express something about the person that wrote them? That would be one way to tell. The meeting of the person who's to lazy to write a profile and the person who's to lazy to write an email- to me, that meeting doesn't bode well. Unless, like i said, You're just trolling for pussy. pam When I actually come across profiles that reflect as much effort as I've put into my own then I have no problem pouring more energy into my messages. The problem is that those kinds of profiles are only about 1 in 30 on this site. You never really know for sure who's a faker or a scammer. You can say that the 18 year old girl with only 1 photo and a short profile description is probably fake, but who knows? Maybe she simply wasn't able to articulate her needs very well - not an unlikely scenario for an 18 year old. You never know who's really on the other end and even if you get a "real" person, that's no guarantee that they're going to be serious about doing anything besides chatting online. So screw it, I'll just keep sending messages to those profiles which I think have a chance of being real. Let the cards fall where they may.
