I should have known better....

Just replied to one of those rambling profiles. You know the kind.

"We want a meet but really we hate most people on here cos you show an interest in us and you're all wankers. So if you really want to meet us first can you make sure you tick all the following fifty boxes. Then send us a message with the secret password in it and complete the following phrase in less than 20 words:

'I am not worthy of a meet with you because.....'

Two hours later and a snotty "you forgot to stand on one leg and write your reply in green ink etc....

Never have I been so glad to find myself blocked for not playing the twisted game, while cursing myself for even bothering in the first place.

I can be such a knob sometimes in not going with my first impressions and steering well clear!

Yep. Been there too!

Got somehow involved in a lengthy chat but with very little actual information about the scenario, didn't see where it was going with the fantasy about family members and suddenly it was "If you don't understand then you're the wrong person".

No loss.

Mostly those ranty jump through hoop profiles come from people who believe themselves to be superior when actually they are the dregs of society and can't meet in the real world and act like they're are the queens of fab because they're a single woman. Some couples like this too. Yet to see a profile with rules from a guy.

Why can't people just act as they do in real life.

Buyers market for sure.

Up to you if you choose to play the game.

I really can't be bothered with all those shenanigans myself to be honest!

Chin up OP, move on - ignore. Onwards

Perhaps they are like that in real life too.

That's a good point. I'd hate to come across those people. Scary!

I think most people are a lot more like their Fab personalities than they realise - at the risk of hijacking my own thread!

Why be pissed off though? That's like being pissed off because you don't find them attractive. If someone's not for you, they're not for you.

We were messaged out of the blue by a couple a while ago who were demanding to see the detail of our veris before they would consider meeting us!

They messaged us!

After a lot of back and forth messaging they finally said ok, we believe your genuine. When and where?

We asked to see face pics and they sent them with "When and where???"

We told them at that point they did nowt for us and blocked them out of nothing more than devilment and not liking their attitude.

Why would you even reply though if someone sends you a message out of the blue like that?

Shows some people still pander to this shit. If people didn't dance to the tune then they would have to adjust.

Therein lies the problem because people will still jump to the beat.

I agree with most of what has been said here. I avoid the ranty, demanding profiles too. However, sometimes we have to remember that some of the negative stuff is added to people's profiles as a type of offensive defense.

We used to have one of those "put xyz into the subject" blah blah things in our profile. We removed it because we realized it was put there when we had become very skeptical of fab (in our first few weeks) and that it wasn't really fair or necessary. But we still had it. I don't think we are necessarily demanding people, but the circumstances were such that, for a time, we felt like we needed it. Maybe we are demanding and I just don't notice it.

So, I dunno, I agree with most of what's being said but part of me is a bit understanding when I see some hoops on a profile...

I was at a club once and the woman I was with introduced me to a friend of hers who to put it mildly was not the most attractive woman I have seen (purely subjective I know) by a long way. The friend looked me up and down once, sneered and said "pah" before turning on her heels and walking off. I didn't even say hello.

I avoid those types of profiles, though don't see many single male ones like that. And they are all I look at.

Scenarios like this end in failure, I've had grief for being unable to phone them that second (was out with non fab friends), other times for not replying to a message immediately when I was at work and actually busy etc

Generally when people are this demanding then even if you did ever meet then you sort of know it probably wouldn't go well
