ORIGINAL: Killerangel If someone doesn't know when you are being politely inquisitive, and you are not getting the conversational results that you want, perhaps change up what you are asking about? People on the internet aren't able to see the body language if they can't see you, or know that you are just being polite. If you want superficial small talk then ask for that. I'm not sure why you expect people to read your mind and know that you asking after XYZ doesn't really mean that you want to know about XYZ. I don't expect much, just a reply relative to my message, if there is a reply, if not, that is answer enough. Not that any of this interfers with or spoils my life. It's not really a big deal, I was just amusing myself puting in my two penneth. quote:
ORIGINAL: Killerangel OP, I'd never take what someone says over the internet to be true. Experience and titles are only words till I meet someone in a public place. Sounds like you're getting disgusted over your own poor filtering process. Don't assign qualities to people you barely know because you think a self applied title means something and you'll get farther. I don't take anyone online to be who they claim to be, to do so would be a fool. I occasionally respond to a profile, throw a hook and see if there is a bite. I wouldn't go so far as to say I'm disgusted, it doesn't mean anywhere near that to me, just mildly surprised and amused at how irrational replies can be.
