Why not block Single Males if you don't want them ?

Just read a profile that has this at both the top & the bottom of the text -

ABSOLUTELY NO SINGLE GUYS UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SO PLEASE RESPECT YOURSELVES AND DO NOT THINK YOU MAY BE THE EXCEPTION, IT WON'T BE GOING DOWN!!!

OK, fair enough. But why do they not just block single single males ?

I'm presuming that a fair few single males still message them, and they get all uppity about it.

I wonder if they lock the front door at night or merely hang a "NO BURGLARS" sign on their door.

Cause I don't moan about the wonderful species that are single males, cause I choose not to.

That's exactly what I thought would/should be done. Simple & efficient.

Meh - folks like that will just something else to rant in caps about on their profile - you know, because getting to shag loads of other people besides your partner is such a chore and a hardship

That to me is a red flag to the bull!! Whenever a profile has DONT'S it will most probably attract the crowd you dont want to attract. It is a lot more difficult to be the one in charge and in control of whom you contact. It also means you/I am going to face rejection and the fear of the delete/block buttons!

But I'm an adult and I can cope with that, not everyone on here can.

I don't like blocking anyone or setting filters for age etc as I use the forums a lot and have recieved messages from people on topics that wouldn't normally of been able to message me if I'd blocked a particular group.

Just means I have to filter thru the ones that don't read my profile etc to get to the good messages.

Just move on. It won't be the first time you see so many contradictions in profiles and personally, it tells me a lot about that person.

Maybe they don't know they can.. Not everyone is good on using the web..

But u could ask.. Why don't people check others looking for secion.

Also I'm not looking but don't block cos people pm about forums..

I wouldn't worry about it.

As a side note, if someone is blocked by a filter and you message them, can they respond to your message?

There are various ways to 'block' people.

I, for example do not allow single men or couples to contact me...thats what you see in the Looking for...part of the profile. In that case neither group can contact me so no need to respond.

If the filter is on Age preference but there are no other 'blocks' you will get a site STOP/THINK Warning that you are not within the person's age preference but that wont stop you sending a message and the person can then choose to respond or not.

Blocking stops all comms.

I am not an expert on the workings of the site though...maybe there is something in the FAQs.

Well they DON'T block because there just might b one guy mailing them who is so stunningly drop dead gorgeous they gotta have him. It's called having ya cake n eating it!!!

Really it would b a lot simpler if folk who genuinely don't wanna meet single guys just automatically blocked ALL of them as standard procedure!!

If I could block a group, except for forum pm's I would; but I cant.

I do take off 'what I'm looking for' and put blocks on emails sometimes, I just don't like to leave them on too long.

If people were to read the profile though and not try contacting someone that isnt looking for them.... problem might go away

Filters in place or not - if I saw that I wouldn't message them!

Maybe they just assume people actually read profiles instead of carpet bombing folk with cut and paste messages or just looking at the pretty pictures?

Spot on. Usually just press the back button in my browser and be on my day.

Why worry about what people do with their filters it just makes you end up looking like Mr Angry. If you read profiles and see no what ever you are why try and mail them it makes no sense. Trying to tell people what they should or shouldn't do with their profile isn't the way to go or ender yourself to someone at all.

Brighton - even Hove!

I have blocked them. Men who want me need to be a bit imaginative in how they contact me. Weeds out the bores.
