"When try join forum the discussion stops ,"

Nonsense, I checked your green arrow and you're last poster on very few. I'm sure I almost won the booby-prize for getting a clean sweep once

I doubt it's your profile, more likely you just need to better develop your radar for detecting those who just like to talk.

Good luck

You've lots of verifications... Are you maybe focusing on what's not working instead of focusing on what IS working and doing more of that?

If you really are getting too many people dropping out, think of how you filter and choose to reduce the amount of time you're wasting.

It took us a few months to figure out how to spot the people who just wanted a chat and the people who aren't going to show up. Now its pretty easy. Just develop your radar better and the site will be loads more fun.

And I think you're paranoid if you think discussion in the forum stops because of you. I don't think there is a big enough consensus among forumites for them all to agree to ignore your posts

Maybe try a different approach, put filters up & search yourselves. Meet in a club & if people don't turn up you still can have a good night.

There's not much on your profile to be intimidating.

If you're not short of interest what's the problem.

I don't find your profile intimidating but your status says you're looking for "the ultimate meet" that's quite something for people to live up.

Actually I Would find it a bit intimidating.

But then I wouldn't message you and waste your time.

Fussy- I know but I would find the 'ultimate' part sounds like a challenge, plus the beer thing- a lot of people I know don't drink when meeting. And again (I will get slated for this) poor use of diction and grammar would make me scroll on by.

I would say that you treat your profile a bit like a CV. If you aren't attracting your preferred calibre of meet- look again at your selection process.

And lastly do you pro- actively browse or just wait to be inboxed?

I go out and get what I want.

No need to get rude. You asked a question about your profile. That is what gives them the right to criticize. If you didn't want it you shouldn't have asked, simple.

They didn't ask for advice, so you should keep your opinions on their profile to yourself.

Btw - hit the reply and quote button so people know who you're talking to.

I don't find the profile intimidating, there isn't that much to it.

You do not close threads or conversations, we've all been the last person to type on a thread, it doesn't mean anything other than people don't want to discuss the thread anymore.

What I will say though is that you don't write or communicate very well, your don't write in sentences and what you say is disjointed. Maybe this is the reason you struggle, as evidenced by this and other topics you've posted.

Yep, I'd say this could be a better indication of why you might be having difficulty. I don't want to appear overly critical (especially as English might not be your first language) but perhaps others are struggling too.

For me this is everything. Absolutely agree. I don't believe anyone would stop posting on a topic because you posted. As I never click into anyone's profile on forum. I just know familiar faces and names and comment on the subject rather than scrutinise every profile as that would be wrong. And if people are doing that then more fool them. But I highly doubt it maybe it's just you finished the conversation and nothing else needed to be said?

What I've learnt most - don't take things too personally! Xxx

You do take it personally though. Your replies on here and your other threads all indicate an attitude of 'its not us, it's you'.

You asked for opinion but you don't like the answers given.

Your profile isn't intimidating but it's too short and written badly, as are your other threads. Improve those areas if you wish.

Is English your first language? I only ask because your posts are very difficult to understand and its possible that you're misunderstanding how you come across.

I don't think that being hard working has a great deal of influence on Fab to be fair and being educated will only get you so far if you don't have the social skills to go with it. As far as being welcoming goes I couldn't possibly comment.

I infer from your post that you've been let down a number of times and that's a shame but it does happen to us all.

Good luck on the site.

Your profile when coupled with your contributions to the forum would seemingly be your problem. Every thread you start seems to have the same, spikey and aggressive attitude. Often, I've read your posts, followed it up with a look at your status update and that's a moaning one.

Your threads/posts are very difficult to understand (language barrier?), they're often disjointed or plain make no sense at all. How do you expect someone to reapond to something they don't understand?

All that been said, you have lots of veri's and people obviously like what they see so why worry about it? Just crack on with what you're doing.

They're not bitching at you, they are telling you that they find it difficult to understand your posts. I'm also findings it quite difficult to understand your posts. Not a criticism just a fact.

Your profile isn't intimidating but personally I find it cold.

The lack of names (real or not) makes it a lot harder for me to converse with any warmth, for example I cant say "If Hazza was to so desire I would be happy for Hazza to watch and to take photo's of myself and Sexy Bum having fun"

Just a small point but personally I find it harder to connect and to address people who are anonymous.

If English is not your first language I would include that on your profile.

Why?

Because if it's not your first language then people will give you more room for grammar mistakes.

As for a second language it's a fantastic effort. But it also is borderline poor if English is your first language and people can assume that it's a poor effort.

You are also very spiky.

If you ask for an opinion you will get one, don't attack those who recommend improvements. You ask for opinions.

If your profile intimidating? Simple answer no, but as others have said your forum posts reflect on you as much as your profile. This post in particular has shown aggression when there was no need for any, for the amount of vari's you have we can't see what your partincularly picking holes in. If your talking about let downs an no shows then that's always going to happen, it's part of the life, both here and vanilla world. Also to state you don't need this site then the simple answer is go, if it frustrates you that much then leave it behind. Your swinging life and experiences are what you make them, only you can solve an issue you have. In the mean time

Happy swinging
