"So ok, I do understand that couples and single females get inundated with emails from single guys. For some weeks, I have drafted individual emails to members whom criteria I meet. I try to only email those. I do try and read every profile first, not always possible especially when some are in excess of 1000 words. This ensures I have the best chance of a response. I have pictures, both clean and naughty. Verifications. So after sending personalised (not copy and paste) emails, why don't you reply, even if its just to say, no thank you. There is only one thing in this world that is free! Manners!! I'm sure everyone has them " i simply dont have the time | |||

"See, all I am seeing is, cant be arsed. Someone has taken time to say hello!! Give them a few seconds back" but when you get over 50 messages a day, sometimes upto a 100 or over when you go in chat, them few seconds replying to a message can take blooming ages i went to download festival last year i went on the wedneaday cam home on the monday so i had been off line for 5 day, when i logged on i had nearly 400 messages, do you really think im going to sit and reply to every sngle one? | |||

Maybe, if some of them are same question over and over, create your FAQ on profile If they ask the question in email, have a standard response, saying see FAQ on profile.

"If you read the FAQ bit it says it is not rude to reply take it as a not interested and move on " Yes but its a manners thing!! I sometimes take 10 mins to craft something individual, so I have given you time, made sure I meet the criteria, attach a pic! Do everything right! Give a few seconds to say "TY, but no TY" how difficult is that? | |||

I can merely speak for me. If they were to send me messages like that, I would block not delete!! If they expected a response from that, then they deserve to be removed | |||

"And people should have to answer all mails why exactly? Do you talk to all your tele sales people? Do you answer all your junk mail? Do you invite all your religious callers in for a coffee? Arrogance and ignorance ? If someone sends a mail to anyone on this site then that mail is actually unsolicited ( they never asked you to send it) So in the same light they don't have to reply either do they? There are very few profiles that actually say mail us or mail me You could say but cause they have a Profile then that's what they are implying True yes but they DONT have to answer the same as you DON'T have to write Nowt arrogant or ignorant about it" | |||

"I think the ladies have answered the question very well on here. I can't imagine many men taking the time to reply to 100 mails a day! The shame is not that the mails don't get answered its that most can't even be read because there are so many. It's like fishing, you just have to keep casting the bait and hope for the best..... " What a good way of thinking | |||

"I am merely stating, that there are some good people on this site who dont deserve the rudeness and arrogance. Every individual deserves the chance, especially if they have made an effort" I haven't got time to give every individual that has 'made an effort' a 'chance'.... so I opt for 'selection' meaning I'll engage in conversation with people who have profiles that interest me and they have ensured they match our criteria before sending us a personal message. We get roughly 100-200 messages a week from newly interested single guys.... we meet roughly 3 single guys a year for fun. The odds a stacked very very heavily against single guys when it comes down to the nitty gritty as far as we are concerned. ....and if I'm brutally honest, we use message filters (blocking single males from messaging) 50% of the time... if we have previously messaged a guy with a 'polite' "thanks, but no thanks" message... that person becomes immune from the filters (and yes, we do get messages from guys we have declined previously) therefore, I really can't be arsed cus I feel that deleting their initial message should let them know that we aren't interested. | |||

"If someone sends a mail to anyone on this site then that mail is actually unsolicited ( they never asked you to send it)" Er, if someone advertises for single men and single men respond to that advert, the responses are 'solicited' and the advertiser is getting what they asked for. To the OP, I can understand the frustration when you've put the effort in. Single women and couples can get a lot of messages (100 every day is bullshit) and ideally responses would always be sent to the thoughtful ones. It's not going to happen, though. So, my best advice is to keep making the effort, but never look in your sent messages box - it will drive you mad! | |||

"I respond to many hundreds of emails in my business daily. " I'm guessing you spend at least 8 hours a day at work though and responding to emails is how you get paid. Do you honestly expect people to treat swinging, which lets face it is a hobby and therefore should be fun, in the same way as running a business? Who has that kind of time? | |||

There is only one thing in this world that is free! Manners!! I'm sure everyone has them " two things here... 1) I could be devils advocate here as suggest to you that it could be in a sense arrogant to expect/demand a reply.... 2) you say that you write replies of over 1000 words... and if that is true then good for you, however the irony of that is that your profile: your own personal shop window to the world.... the place where you can stand out, the place were you can really give people an indication if they are browsing, the place where you can get people thinking "wow I have to get to know this person!!!" 10 words.......... my normal rule of thumb is if the whinge/complaint is longer than the profile..... thens its fairly obvious where to start..... see i don't get what differece a rejection makes if they don't get back or say no.... saying no opens a dialouge they obviously don't want to have..... dust yourself down, move one....... for me if i send any mail it is a BONUS if I get any back, and that mindest is a different one to yours.... | |||

"It's not a question of manners or arrogance, .. previous threads will give you all the answers.. Question for you OP. What benefit do you get from a thanks but no thanks message ( how very polite, but still no thanks) does it get you the meet you were looking for, ? or Does it mean that whilst your reading these no thanks messages you re not messaging the person who does want to meet you,? in that short time some smooth talking guy ( hopefully me) is in before you, arranging the meeting , having your fun, cheers mister.. you keep waiting for the no thanks messages,... I'm far more interested in the let's meet messages.. " Great answer, i honestly think its the entitlement problem some men have, they don't believe it is a no thanks | |||
