I don't pay any attention to them and never even look to see who has winked, so just looked at home page and I currently have 500+ doesn't mean anything to me though

I think it is a good way to show interest in someone without messaging them, some see them as lazy - however I quite like them

Down to personal choice I suppose, but I suppose its different if you receive hundreds of them.

I received my first wink yesterday from a couple who state on their profile that they don't normally meet men. I have no idea why they decided to contact me in this way but I was chuffed to bits. I'd love to get more winks (have I spelt that correctly?).

I'd normally take that as an invite to message them.

I like the idea just don't like the thought I don't get any lol

They are I believe a way of saying I would like to chat ut don't want to write a lot only to be ignored or thought of as lazy

Would enjoy being winked more often

We receive anything from 30 to 50 messages every day plus winks plus friends offers. Im still not sure of the wink system. When I receive a wink from someone 200 miles away I find it rude not to respond with a wink and yet I dont wish to receive a message from them as nothing is going to happen between us due to distance or other circumstances. If I dont wink back, is this being rude?

In the real world we never respond if someone shouts "oi you!" or whistles at either of us like a dog.

In the cyberworld we treat winks the same way but always respond politely if someone sends short message

If I receive a wink I will respond with either wink or message. If I send a wink it is a way of showing interest, if no response then I move on

they can be disabled through the account bit of the fab homepage. they're kind of spammy and nebulous .. usually ignore them.

Yes, and variations of. A 59 year old sent "8" white cock cum n get it".

I found it rather sad that an old man still hadn't learnt how to send a respectable message.

As for winks, I block delete as I think they're VERY lazy. My profile is specific in the type of playmate I'm looking for, and it will be a very small pool. Therefore is expect anyone contacting me to make himself known in a message.

If I had a generic or "ordinary" profile then I would view it as an icebreaker. One site I'm on sends an automatic personalised message to anyone sending me a wink, it says thanks for the wink but I never look at them but I read all messages.

As a follow up, they eventually read my message and deleted it without reply. Oh well! Back to being patient!

I like winks, it's an easy way for people to show an interest, of whatever type, in someone else. Mutual winks can lead to messaging, which will get read always, with me, and replied to.

Rarely make the first approach but if I do it would probably be a wink.

I think they are a nice subtle way of saying hi x

Winks are harmless. We smile or wink at people across crowded rooms if we're out or if we're at a social gathering or networking event. If we get similar gesture back, we go and introduce ourselves.

Don't see the difference and don't see why people get so annoyed by them. The buffer that is the internet seems to have created pet peeves which would seem more uptight in a public setting.
