Hi all,

We've just updated our profile a little and would like thoughts. Good or bad. We're starting to use this site more and want to come of the best we can without being to serious/bitchy.

Any look and advice will be greatly appreciated.

Boss

Looks good to me but I do have one comment, it’s not something that only applies to your profile though as I see it on a lot of profiles.

You ask that anyone who messages you sends a photo with their first message and I assume by this you mean a face picture as you say you like to know who you’re talking to. You don’t say that if you reply you will also send face pictures so i don’t know if you do that or not, and you don’t show your faces on your profile, so you’re asking people to send a face picture to complete strangers without confirming you’re willing to do the same. I’m not accusing you of being a fake account for collecting pictures but there are fake accounts that people have set up just to collect pictures so, to be honest, it’s quite dangerous and naive to send face pictures to strangers on the internet. By asking people to do that you’re asking for something that a lot of people are uncomfortable doing so they will either message you without sending a picture which will lead to you rejecting them straight away, send a message with a picture but feel uncomfortable and scared about doing it which isn’t a good way to start an interaction and I’m sure you don’t want to be making people feel that way or they just won’t message you.

I understand that you want to know who you’re talking to, everyone does, but it’s a lot to ask for people to send a face picture with their first message. Personally I can tell within 2 or 3 messages whether someone’s genuine or not so after that I’m happy to send a face picture to someone who I feel is genuine, but I don’t feel comfortable sending a face picture with my first message to anyone.

You ask people to message again as they might not be what you're looking for at the time but I can't get a clear idea of what you are looking for apart from men and women.

Apart from that I think it's good and I don't think you'll encounter many problems meeting

Overall good but reads like you are looking for single men or ladies to join you especially to have fun with the female half. Doesn't really sound like you are looking for couples although you have that ticked. As veris are single men have you played with couples and what kind of thing are you looking for with couples?

Also, you say to message again even if previous messages are deleted, unless you reply no, as they might just not be what you’re looking for at that time….so does that mean you know which people you will never be interested in, so you reply no, and which people you just aren’t interested in at that moment but you may be interested in at another time? I’m very impressed at how much of an understanding you have about how your tastes and desires are going to changed in the future.

Wouldn’t it be better to delete the messages from people you’ll never be interested in and reply to the ones you might be interested in at another time to tell them that? Deleting a message is pretty universally seen as the same as getting a ‘no thanks’ reply so you’re giving the wrong message to the ‘not now but maybe later’ people….you’re indirectly telling them no and directly telling the no people no so they’re both getting a no….
