Why do you have lengthy profile message

Middlesbrough

Some people here believe that a lengthy profile message signifies a good profile (fabber).

For me I really appreciate my time

I don't read or message profile that I can't read in 5 to 10 seconds

Why do I need to read your life biography

If you think you don't want to repeat yourself that is why you dont want to have a wikipedia of your life

You need to leave some aspects out so you can have stuffs to talk about that can lead to other several discussions

LENGTHY PROFILE IS JUST A WASTE OF TIME. TIME IS PRECIOUS WHY SPEND IT ON LENGTHY PROFILE MESSAGE IN WHICH YOU ARE NOT SURE OF GETTING REPLY AND EVEN GET BLOCKED

Everyone here is different and brings their own history.

If their profile deters the people who are just wrong for them, then they've used their insight and effort wisely - whether because it was to detailed or short or the content itself screamed 'F. Off' to the misfit for them.

It's a win if people otherwise get overloaded with dross

Sorry...

But for me Im not here for a simple fuck with anyone... me and Irish can do that to eachother every day if need be... we're here for fantasies to be fulfilled and when playing we don't want our time wasted nor somebody else's... maybe that's why we've only had incredible experiences on here because we've always clicked and had chemistry because people have read our profile and agreed we have mutual sexual chemistry.

For us to go arranging meets means babysitters and hotels and money spent.. were not going to waste that on potentially meeting people we have absolutely nothing in common with sexually? What a waste that would be. Our profile immediately filters those people out.

Sorry I don't like disagreeing with posts but for me our profile is key to our fantastic meets.

There and to the left a bit

If someone can't be bothered to read my profile in full and can't be bothered to at least give me something to go on in their own profile(or be a regular forum user whose personality you can get to know that way), then they're not for me plain and simple.

Sure you can get to know someone via messages, but it'd take a lot more text (and time and effort) than a long profile would to get to the point of deciding I want to meet that person. So having a longer profile at least allows someone to decide if they want to invest that time and effort into messaging.

A profile is how I'd describe as a personal advert. You wouldn't advertise a car your selling with a one line description.

"4 wheels good body work well oiled machine and 1 previous owner "

That would not be enough to sell in the real world so why sell yourself short on here ?

To be fair 99% of people on fab dont read profiles anyway, but is nice when sometime spends the time to read a well written profile that clearly someone has put the effort and time in to write about themselves and what they want off here.

I find the empty barrels are the ones without the intelligence to write a decent profile

If you get something as serious as that in future then I definitely suggest reporting to admin instead of here because even though you probably feel like you're venting all your frustrations OP, you will leave yourself open to more abuse. And if you're already upset over something that happened earlier then you're only going to end up in a potentially volatile situation once that thread is started.

They aren't interested. Some people block and don't reply, some say no thanks and block. Either way, they don't want to meet you.

No not just sexual stuff, is there humour in the bio, does the woman seem intelligent, is it interesting. All that can be shown in a shortish bio.

A couple of paragraphs is enough to know if I want to try and reach out to them. A long list of negativity and what they don't like just don't appeal to me

If you genuinely are here for fun. I would end the thread here. I do not know you and do not wish to judge. But I have a feeling tonight you were blocked.. and then decided to scorn that person, however in doing so you've managed to offend a lot of people on fab and potentially intimidate a young single girl on here by accusing her profile of being a welcoming a psychopath into her life.

However I am sure you didn't mean for this thread to pan out this way and you've probably had a bad night. So maybe it should end here? And you can agree that yes you don't like long profiles and some don't like short profiles but instead of voicing these opinions so harshly and openly we could just agree to move on to another profile in future?

Thanks.

The only thing I would say is that some girls get a lot of messages, and to reply to every single one individually is probably very time consuming I guess?

From experience, whenever we haven't been too keen we generally just reply with a sorry we're not free for a while in hopes it will deter them as I really don't like hurting people's feelings.. as when we have done that in the past we just get abuse thrown at us and it's just not nice to read.

So some people probably don't want to risk opening a can of worms and it's easier just to block.

I still don't understand what that has to do with a long profile though

I hope everyone can be nice now though, and just understand that if it's a block.. move on.. if it's an ignore... move on. There's someone for everyone and she obviously wasn't meant for you.

LENGTHY PROFILE IS JUST A WASTE OF TIME. TIME IS PRECIOUS WHY SPEND IT ON LENGTHY PROFILE MESSAGE IN WHICH YOU ARE NOT SURE OF GETTING REPLY AND EVEN GET BLOCKED

I see you practice what you preach! Your two line Profile, without pics and not being able to accommodate will earn you minimal responses!

Profiles are subjective though. It's down to each person how they conduct themselves and how their profile is written.

If you don't like any particular one, move on.

You are missing the whole point

My point is that it's rude to block people where you could have said no thank you "

Your opening thread didn't say anything about being blocked or rude people you were moaning about long profiles. As soon as a lot of people disagreed with you. You then changed and said it was because you got blocked. It's not rude to ignore and block it's the way fab works. Did the person you messaged ask you to message them.... nope it was your choice so equally it's there choice if they respond or not. Take s look at the FAQ page.

"The only thing I would say is that some girls get a lot of messages, and to reply to every single one individually is probably very time consuming I guess?

From experience, whenever we haven't been too keen we generally just reply with a sorry we're not free for a while in hopes it will deter them as I really don't like hurting people's feelings.. as when we have done that in the past we just get abuse thrown at us and it's just not nice to read.

So some people probably don't want to risk opening a can of worms and it's easier just to block.

I still don't understand what that has to do with a long profile though

I hope everyone can be nice now though, and just understand that if it's a block.. move on.. if it's an ignore... move on. There's someone for everyone and she obviously wasn't meant for you.

I really understand where you're coming from. For me I still prefer not to get a reply than an outright block for no reason.

Blocking someone seems to me that the person have stepped pass his/her boundaries so the get blocked.

Someone sent me a private message and said they will block me because of my profile message.

I responded that that's a flimsy excuse to block someone. So i said I wouldn't read your profile or message you because I won't be bothered to read their profile

I got an abusive reply and was blocked and couldn't reply "

First it was you didn't like long profiles then it was you don't agree people delete and block they should say no thank you now it's someone blocked you because they didn't like your profile. Then you went on to be very cruel and rude to someone who is trying dealing and come to terms with the fact her mother is dying. I'm sorry but do you really wonder why your getting blocked by people if this is how you react.

Because finding the right person not any old person is important to me. I am far more that just cock looking to get wet. So it's about telling people what I am about, what's important to me and giving a peek into my personallity.

I'm happy with my profile and while it continues to attract people I want to talk to that's all that matters.

If anyone doesn't want to read it for whatever reason I'm hardly going to lose any sleep over that fact as I'll never know.

No, it is not. We block people who do not meet our requirements so that they cannot write to us and do not appear in our searches

I read it out of curiosity. To be fair you could have said what you wanted in half that and you did admit you have wasted 15 min of your life ?

The length of your profile doesn't mean anything bro. It's whether you know how to use it ...

well otherwise it would be like yours .not worth looking at . why do you have such a crap profile . .just makes me think you have nothing to say about yourself and that your a very dull person that cant even be bothered to make even the smallest effort on here ..

i really think profiles should be read by admin before going live and if the person has made no effort they dont get published ..as they do on well known TV contact site..

You waste much more of your precious time sending messages to those whose profiles you couldn't be bothered to read and who consequently never reply...

How sensible is that??

Op, I agree. Some profiles are too long and needless.

Unlike many I think that you are entitled to your opinion, as are they. That's what makes us individuals.

Like you, I get bored reading a long profile, so I just don't bother and move on to the shorter ones. It's really that simple.

I'm not here to make life long friends. I have friends. People I've known a long time and who I trust.

I'm not here for a relationship. I've had relationships, and they just end up messy at some point.

NSA fun is all I'm after. That's it. I don't want to know anyone's life story either.

However, not wanting to be friends or have a relationship, doesn't mean that I'm not friendly, respectful and sociable. Within limits of course. LOL!

Like everyone else here I pick and choose. It's the way of the world, we all do it in our own little way.

If you feel that people on here are quite often rude, then I agree with you. But it's just their way.

Ultimately, you don't know any of these people, and they don't know you. And as I always say, there's an awful lot lost in conversations over the net. We can all so easily misinterpret everything and anything that's said.

I don't even need a message to block. If I don't like someone's attitude in a forum or a status I'll happily block them.
