i find the best way to obtain replies is go mental and message practically everybody with a diff message each time... seems to work, u still get prob less than a quarter of ppl replying but at least its some!

also ive made a few friends on here that have lasted, n sometimes they say there's just too many messages to read all of em so if u do get talking, hurry up and find another way of talking to em b4 they miss one of ur messages by accident!!!

or maybe they are reading them straight from their inbox on their e mail addy like I do!

If it makes you feel any better, at this present moment I have 12 unread messages in my outbox.

I have WAY more than 12 unread messages... 49 I went a little message crazy went I first got my account and never looked at their last sign in date! Oh well!
