Add the user to your favorites. It's on the left hand side.

It's interesting, I get a lot of email from women all over telling me how well done my profile is. While I'm glad they see it that way, it's pretty sad because it took five minutes and is't really anything monumental. It's just pathetic that people, both subs and Dommes, can't put the five minutes it takes to put together a brief, yet thoughtful profile together that shows simply who you are and what you are looking for.

It doesn't have to be War and Peace, but just allows others to see what the hell is going on.

Sadly, I think that people get so worn out y the bullshit artists and trolls, that browsing and actually putting effort into this is fruitless.

As a male sub, i think I've hidden two thirds of the profiles in the state of NY because they are mainly moronic and completely unuitable for what I am looking for. I don't thin a lot of people take the time to do this. It took me a few minutes to really sift through and hide all of them that I wanted to, and now it's just a matter of maintenance. As new users come in I'm able to see them quickly and yea or nay them and go from there. It's pretty simple to browse that way if you keep it up with relative frequency.

On this point, I have to concede. As I have stated many times before, I threw My profile together to gain access to the boards. I figure, if someone wants to know about Me, they will either ask or gather the information from the topics/responses that I post. One of these days, when I know I will be too tied up with real life to post for a couple of days, I will update it and make it worth something.

I respond to all emails that I receive, though I initiate very few (should make one or two boys feel special at any rate). In My opinion, I think it would make more sense for one who wants to be noticed to make contact. After all, how many profiles are on this site? It doesn't seem very realistic to sit back and think that a Domme is just going to happen across one's profile and snap to the realization that this is Her boy.

I don't bother with looking at random profiles. If I have looked at a profile, it is for one of three reasons.

1. That person emailed Me and I want to know more about them.

2. I have seen something on the boards that a person has wrote and it sparked My attention enough to make Me want to have a look at them.

3. They have already looked at My profile and they are local enough for Me to take a couple of minutes to see if there is any potential. (This one is kind of rare, but it's been known to happen)

What I'm basically saying here is, no matter how well a profile is written, a lot of Us will never see it because it's just floating out there with thousands of other random profiles. Those who want to be noticed, make contact.

Great answer and to be honest, I find I look at more profiles because of what someone posted than for any other reason. I guess that means I need my mind stimulated first.

GDG,

Oh how I love you! You just said everything I was wanting to say lately and much better than I could say it. Thank you!

To the OP....I agree with many of the Ladies here. I want to know more about a sub as a person than I do about their kinks. Mine is pretty specific so someone that contacts me is already interested in the same basic kinks. I'm not having to sell Myself to them since I'm already doing that in my profile by being quite specific about what I'm searching for. They've contacted me out of interest and attraction. The question is whether they are what I'm looking for and whether they are able to sell themselves as that person. (How I wish I had a nickle for every sub I've heard say " you're the Domme for me." Well that's just peachy, how about some info that tells me you're the sub/cuck for Me hmmm?)

Someone without any info in their profile, or simply a list of their kinks and BDSM preference doesn't tell me anything about who they are. I already know what they are since they contacted me to begin with....I am much more interested in finding out who they are.
