I do realize you just wanted to get this off your chest so I am not really going to get into the illiteracy issue.. however.. and please understand this is an observation only having dealt with MANY of the same issues.. You have on your profile that you are owned.. but your handle kind of indicates you are searching for a dom.. and yes... most do not get past the handle and the pic.

Sometimes people snoodge grammar (such as using the word Grapey) to interject a little humor (and yes, I put snoodge in this sentence to drive you nuts)

Personally, I don't need a walking dictionary / thesaurus with a bad attitude following me around drabbling their comments on my posts.

In which depth of self-absorption do you think that I actually give a crapola on your opinions on my grammatication??

The only high horse you see is the one you are sitting on.

And Duh, I put made up words in this post on purpose and misused which / that and even a punctuation goober for good measure.

At least I'm not the only one whom noticed your beeing the ass on that hi horse of you'res

Edited: BTW, maybe you should read the "What do you think?" forum - Tenebirous just described you.



TGD,

I do believe that CD was refering to the OP and used the 'fast reply' option which only made it appear as if he were replying to your post. That's pretty much confirmed by his later post as well where he speaks of starting threads.

That is possible - you never know with CD, he gets his wild hairs.  Just as long as I get to use the words "snoodge", "drabbling", and "grammatication" - I'ma happy

Note...I hit the little spell check button and well it told me that it wasn't detected.  So master checked it and then said he wasn't sure if it was all correct.  But I do love stirring the hornet's nest at times and thanks for all the responses.

Status: offline 		Yeah, you really just need to get used to the idiots on this site. I think I've gotten as many emails from males as I have females (obviously not including those I contacted first). I'm not in the least bit bi.

And it wasn't a hello email, it was "would you like me to come over and suck your dick this weekend, I'll be in Montreal."

Somehow, I managed to force myself to say no, though I was oh so tempted

I don't think most people read the actual profile at all.  I remember the one I had before I was owned, I put in there specific things that they should know if they actually read it.  Most didn't have a clue, but I will give credit to the one that wrote wanting to know if my love of animals was a "secret code" for something not mentioned here on the boards.  Maybe the ones that read it all, weren't preferred at that point to the ones that didn't.

This sort of thing happens on every online D/s venue. Just put on your subbie (or slave) armour and raise your shield. And if that doesnt work theres always the iggy feature.  ~grin~

You state that you are an ex-marine...one would think that  from your association with that organization you would have been adequately exposed to the illeterate, the stupid and the disregarding so as to no longer be offended by them.

Hello A/all,

I almost never get an email on this site.  While I could speculate why that is, the answer would probably be self-denigrating and essentially meaningless.

When I get the odd email, I usually craft a polite response and go on with my life.

If I was somebody who received 121239871234 messages a day, I would probably approach things a bit differently.

But that is just me, and I could be wrong.

Sinergy

Status: offline 		Let me focus on subartist4dom's original question(s).

1) They are assholes.

2) They aren't exactly total assholes but they figure they have nothing to lose by "giving it a shot" so they routinely disregard pretty much everything anybody writes in order to take the shot.

3) They aren't assholes but overly optimistic and know from experience that "being owned" isn't really ownership and having a "master" isn't really having a master. Mavis covered this point quite well.

4) They are aware of the dishonesty on the boards and assume the person they're writing to is dishonest and  the description is inaccurate.

I am rather bewildered why anybody would think "Well, maybe this person just lies about what they want and if so maybe I can get on with them" But that would be the start of another topic.

or

Wishful thinking: perhaps the profile is old and you're no longer owned, so they're throwing a baited hook out there.

Who cares?  Delete it and move on.  Gods, if I wasted time in my life over the useless emails and messages I get, I'd have that as a full time job.

Hmmm wine is made from grapes.. grapes are purple.. so.. do purple people wine too much or does wining too much make people purple...

Just comes with the online territory.

[...] I love the rest...those are the are you involved and will you relocate...



So you actually get messages from folks whose first words to you are "are you involved and will you relocate?"     ?????

I have been going about this all wrong then.  I have been trying to actually get to know people first, before launching into details of what may or may not happen.  Joke's on me then, I guess.  I'll have to be far more direct in the future, then, to compete.  Boy, that'll require a deep soul searching, and a substantial shift in behaviour on my part.  Daunting.

Status: offline 		I would like to say it's a matter of answer D, all of the above. I do think a lot of it comes to looking for one thing - whether it be a pretty picture, a person into a certain kink or, of course, just those with the right body parts so that Tab A can fit Slot B.
 
It's like the dominants, male or female, that message other dominants asking about how subby they are or are they ready to bow to their new Master.

Status: offline 		Generally, I thought that MisPandora caught a certain something when she wrote "Who cares?  Delete it and move on.  Gods, if I wasted time in my life over the useless emails and messages I get, I'd have that as a full time job."

On the other hand, I thought that atropa7 missed the boat, writing "Anyone who disregards what is written in a profile articulating what the person is looking for IS an asshole."

I routinely advise people to disregard what is written in a profile, not in order to write somebody with the disregard but to protect themselves.

You may, as a sub, read a profile from the "35-year-old retired multi-millionaire...." Disregard the claims.

You may, as a Dom, read a profile from a sub advertising hwo she's totally into every form of edge play. Disregard the claims.

People who disregard claims like those aren't automatically "assholes." They're realists.
