"Why don't ppl just say sorry not interested not my type No reply is ignorant" I imagine they think if they reply it opens them up to you trying to convince them why they should be interested in you For me as long as they delete the message you sent them then at least you can see they are not interested even if it's not communicated in the most direct way | |||

"Why don't ppl just say sorry not interested not my type No reply is ignorant" Because a lot of people don't know how to let people down gently, or have been met with desperation or offense when they've done so. Also, some people get too much attention to reply to everyone, and if your message didn't stand out, it will likely get deleted without being read. | |||

"Why don't ppl just say sorry not interested not my type No reply is ignorant" Because we can't be arsed  | |||

Also it takes times I don't have, quite often if I do say thanks but no thanks then the person either attempts to convince me otherwise or engage in conversation as to why they're not.
Its generally understood and is also stated in the FAQs that a no reply is a thanks but no thanks. | |||

"Why don't ppl just read profiles before messaging. Not reading profiles is ignorant" I completely agree with you OP. There would be so much less angst if people just read profiles  | |||

"Hmmmmmm Let's see..personally speaking.. Nearly 100 messages today. Most are one liners, a lot are over 100+miles away, a lot have cock shot profile pics. I'm not looking to meet anyone new, clearly stated on my profile. To reply to each would take me, what an hour? Then there's the return message, trying to change my mind, or the odd abusive one. No thanks, as clearly stated in site rules, no reply, no intrest " This | |||

"According to the site rules, no reply means a polite no thank you. I find it polite to block people who I message and don't reply. That means I wont bother them in the future." Blocking should be used more. If I am clearly not what someone is looking for I block them. It saves me time and I can’t imagine they’ll shed any tears over it. So to the OP read the profile and block if you’re not suited or if you get no reply. Everyone’s a winner. | |||

"Why don't ppl just say sorry not interested not my type No reply is ignorant" You'll go insane if you're tracking messages just send and forget until you see some replies in your inbox | |||

e and pics, when you see your message is read and deleted or read and they don't reply. Don't worry about It, something just didn't click is all. If you have a wee search you will see that this is a common thread and all the advice is pretty much the same. Just don't let it get you in the feels man
Good luck! | |||

"All good advice here you'd be well advised to heed, OP. Ask yourself this...do you reply to any or all of the the junk mail you get through your front door? Probably not... I would also look at your profile. I did, and I found it very off-putting. I suspect I'm not alone. Lastly, while this a swingers' club, you getting laid is not a part of membership. Even if you are a gold member... " There's a difference with Junk mail. The sender knows its junk mail. Lisa, do you open every white envelope that's hand written and had a stamp that's been placed on it? The problem I have is those that say deleted/unread. If the site removed the ability to 'mark unread' to a message, everyone would know without a doubt that it was deleted/ignored, or deleted/unread wouldn't we? The advice to ignore as a polite no, is my biggest gripe in here, it's not welcoming is it? | |||

When I joined the site as a single female 5+ years ago I didn't fill in my profile immediately, I wanted to take a few days to decide what to put. I didn't put any pics on for over a week. Within five minutes of signing up, with a blank profile, my inbox had over 200 messages! A welcome that nearly had me deleting my profile and not coming back. The site is even busier now so it's probably worse. As a newbie single female, the first thing I learnt about the site was how to mass delete the hundreds of unwanted messages. The second thing I learnt was what filters are
One thing that I would love to see is all new male profiles are marked as female instead for the first hour. Then we would see a significant reduction in this type of post
On a more serious note I think the site would benefit from all profiles having all filters set on as default and users have to opt into receiving messages rather than the current opt out | |||

An opt in to receive mail is a good idea. | |||
