Is there any point to it seeing as it's hated so much?

If I hate something, I tend to ignore it and not give it a second thought. I actually like it and have had several good meets from it over the years.

I like to use the wink button and I do get a few myself so I still think it's worthwhile

We don't hate it at all. Its a great way to initiate contact, saves people getting arsey too as can see if everyone likes what they see before the awkward no messages to others.

I do think its a little pointless if the person winking has little or no info on their profile and no pics but overall, I think its a good tool to show initial interest.

Never look at. Never use it. So anyone who winks at me might as well not bother because I don't check.

I agree with you all, but most of the London profiles state "Do not wink it gets ignored" so I tend to just not bother, I see it as way of letting the others know I'm interested and don't think it should be frowned upon.

Never sent a single wink. So many people get stroppy about them, it doesn't seem worth the hassle.

Would rather send a carefully composed message, saying what I really think. (It'll probably still be ignored or deleted but at least it shows I'm interested enough to try).

We don't mind winks as a way of expressing an initial interest. They're rather like someone catching your eye across a room. We've had some great things ensue from a wink. But as someone said earlier, if your profile is empty or its a way of trying to get round preferences then it'll just get deleted.

I really prefer a message ad it shows the person is capable of conversation as so many are not.

You Dont Need to Know, right now

Like Subbykitten, I don't look at my winks, so people may as well not bother. It just doesn't get them onto my radar, because there are hundreds of them. I really wish I could turn off winks, and trigger a 'bounce-back' to let people know 'this profile doesn't accept winks'.

However, I think it is a useful tool for single women and couples to use, so Fab should keep it. Sadly, being in the vast majority, single men just have to try harder than single women/couples.

If it wasn't for a simple wink...Billy and I wouldn't have met and 3 years later still be together.

So Yeh, let's keep the wink

Plymouth and Newcastle (sometimes)

Winks are good for us When we get one and we like the winker we wink back, they respond with a message with face pics and if we like them we send ours back with a message answering anything they've asked or commented on from our profile (we always read other peoples profiles) and sometimes this gets as far as a meet. Certainly saves wasting time writing a message that's instantly deleted.
