"Hi everyone. Asking for advice on my profile. Constructive criticism welcome. You only have my word for it but it is 100 percent genuine. Obviously there are no public pics so I get that may be a reason but there are many others who don't and seem to have sucsess. 3.2.1...GO ![]() Terrible. Try writing in sentences as opposed to a weird list. Less concentration on your ex. And, yes, unless you include some photos, no chance. | |||

"I assume this was a newbie asking for advice on their profile? A total waste of time since they deleted the thing ![]() A lot of requests for help from newbies are a waste of time. Given the number of such threads a little bit of research would help prior to posting as so much of the advice given is generic, and taking up some of the advice that is given on the thread would also be gratifying . Occasionally somebody does act on the advice but not very often it seems... | |||

"It was because I assumed people local would know it was the same guy trying to change to much. It just felt odd to me. Also my assumption is correct yet I have read many profiles worse than mine.(which I think although not fantastic, is pretty non threatening wich reflects my nature.) These guys just have cock pics and 6 packs (of course a favourite of the shallow) and yet many varies. Thanks for the reply." so you assume that people actually read your profile... you assume quite a lot...especially where you say there are worse profiles than yours.. there are also far better ones with far better pictures... I don't understand why you ask for a profile critique and a) leave the site and b) return to the site but still don't take the advice ![]() | |||

"So flaimhaired has hidden their profile. Your opinion no longer counts. Rubyroo Regarding spelling and grammar, I didn't realise this was a school exam!(please feel free to correct my shocking English.) If you think spelling and grammar are a sign of intellect then I wonder how I got where I got today. Pippin there are photos, look harder. Also, the majority of women on here know they have the upper hand due to the sheer numbers of males compared to females. Now whilst I don't gave an issue with that in the slightest. What I do have an issue with is arrogant rude individuals who abuse their power. For example not replying to non threatening polite messages where a pic is attached with so much as a no thank you. On top of that demanding face pics on profiles when theirs are either hidden or non existent. Personally I respect people's opinions but I don't respect Arrogance and rudeness. The sad fact is that the real gentlemen on here have to suffer these attitudes because of the idiots who are abusive when rejected. Sorry for the rant but I simply can't bear double standards. Thank you all for your input, It's much appreciated. Good luck a safe play to you all. J ![]() No but people who are outraged by the fact I prefer profiles with correct spelling often have a substantial chip on their shoulder, and that's offputting. So its an excellent filter for me. You asked for profile critique, you got it. | |||

"Not replying is not an abuse of power. It is just plain ignorant and rude. Understandable if the message received is abusive, otherwise there is really no excuse I'm afraid. I'm not going to get into an argument over such trivial things such as correct grammar. So far only two people have given a proper critique as far as I'm concerned." I'm not trying to get into an argument either - you asked for constructive criticism, my understanding of that is you wanted suggestions of how to improve the responses you were getting. For me, public photos and correct spelling would improve your profile. I didn't get past the first two lines. You are free to disagree or to decide my view is not one you want to take into account, but it's still an answer to the question which you asked. It sounds like your idea of a "proper critique" is people telling you everything is just fine and you should crack on as you are. Enjoy. | |||

I'm not going to get into an argument over such trivial things such as correct grammar. So far only two people have given a proper critique as far as I'm concerned." You seem a little uptight bud. You may find this site a little frustrating and maybe not for you and I'm using some of your replies to this thread to come to that conclusion. Women don't reply for many reasons. Personally, I don't see it as rude, I've seen how many messages my fuck buddy gets, it would be impossible to reply to them all. I delete all my sent mail so have no idea what the lady has done with it, I'll either log onto a reply or I won't. I'd rather have an empy inbox than a load of no thanks messages. No one owes you anything on here. Anyone can ask for a face photo even if they have none on display, its not against site rules and you don't have to conform. No one has any power on here and certainly cannot abuse it via written messages. Only you can allow yourself to fall foul of what you might think is an abuse of power. You asked for profile advice and got some. Whether you agree with it or act on it is up to you but you ask on a public forum and people will reply. If you are experiencing a lot of no replies to messages then maybe rethink what you are doing and accept some of the advice to improve your profile. Lastly, ignore everything I've said as my profile is hidden so what I have to say it invalid ! ![]() | |||

"Not at all uptight pal. Just disappointed in some pretty poor advice. I think people are under the impression I'm offended by comments made. Far from it, I simply have no time for Arrogance and people not practicing what they preach. ![]() ![]() That's the forums for you, welcome! ![]() | |||

"Thank you pippin. I fear that predictive text has a lot to answer for these days as well as failing to proof read ![]() I'm guilty of not opening messages to be honest. There are just so many. As I stated on another thread, we are here to have fun. If I was to reply to every man that messaged me, even if it was just a ' no thank you' it would leave me no time to message the ones I do chat to regularly, or come on the forums. I understand that it's frustrating for a guy not to get a response, but I come on here for escapism, there would be no pleasure for me if it was just about letting people down. We females honestly do get a lot of messages. X | |||

"Thank you pippin. I fear that predictive text has a lot to answer for these days as well as failing to proof read ![]() The respect thing I'm about to flip on its head - a reason why some women don't reply is because of the personal abuse some guys send in response to a no thanks so they are the ones that are being disrespectful. As a result of this, women are loathed to reply for fear of abuse so simply choose not to. It has nothing to do with lack of manners or respect. | |||

"Quick example. I saw a lady post about back pain. Having had the same issue I messaged with some advice I felt may be helpful. As always I included my pic. There was no sexual innuendo whatsoever. I didn't get so much as a "TA" back. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() unfortunately there are no commitments to reply to any messages, manners or no manners. I know what u mean but that's how it is. | |||

"I see your point. I know you get a lot of abusive messages, however when I have sent a perfectly respectful and sincere message and I see it has been read, apart from time constraints I see no reason not to receive a polite reply. I genuinely feel for women on here as I know there are some serious tossers. ![]() I don't get any messages because of my filters, I choose to do the searching myslef when looking for a meet because I got fed up with guys constantly pestering me even after a polite no thanks, abuse as described earlier and guys who have an over inflated sense of entitlement. Your message may be polite and respectful but if you're not what they're looking for or your profile doesn't appeal then they won't necessarily send a reply. The quicker you accept this, the better your experience of this site will be. The FAQ's advice a no reply is a no thanks, deal with that or forever be frustrated with this site. | |||

"Oh I get it completely. And I never message/pester again. I am merely observing the rudeness of people. As was put previously, Those who don't reply I consider as a "bullet dodged" myself ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() There are rude people in all walks of life, here is no different. Not replying to a message isn't rude as far as I'm concerned, its a choice. Being rude is messaging someone and giving them abuse. | |||
