I know what you mean fella, I have had one direct mail sent to me since i have been here Evil or Very Mad

I have had people respond to my messages but ur right - in my experience i have had to make all the effort to get to know people here....

I think after i fleshed out my profile - likes, dislikes, many authors, music varieties.... that helped.

After all - with the number of people on this site - if you are trying to get a date, then you really need to put the effort into the limited resources you have on your profile - such as fave actors, put a description of what you are looking for (more than one line)

in essence - flesh it out.

But still girls....we all want to feel wanted...its nice to get the occasional message saying good morning!! - afterall, its not the 1930's you know Wink

You could send each other messages and find out whether you
happen to be generally blocked on the website.

If so, let me know....

I'd agree with member45 - try writing to people.

Another thought, if you click the wrong box to search for men instead of women you'll find that there are loads more men registered here than women, perhaps thats a reason why - just a numbers thing.

Looking at your profile this morning i noticed you did not have anything writen in your about me section.
If i looked at a profile and saw it was pretty much empty i would wonder what the person has to hide. Yeah i know it seams judgemental however this day and age you have to be carefull

in my own experience i get far too many mails. i try to answer them all but some of them just dont give you reason to answer. i cant stand the kind of msgs that only say " wanna fuck/chat/waste your bloody time on me for an hour?" sorry guys but you hafta be more imaginative and give a girl a reason to answer.... sayin hiya dont cut it. we want somethin to reply to. this one guy sent me a riddle lol so i felt like i needed to know the answer.

Thanks for the replies.. Very Happy
I took out one of my images, that made me look grumpy and sad...
and i added a whole bunch of stuff to my profile...
are my images and content ok
it's not an error on the site, I sent a message to myself and it does work...
it's just that before, my profile had nardly any content, and my main image made me look sad

Found the error...
have a look at the who many contact you...

as a default id you are male it is set for "males may contact you only..
so it was that stupid setting that messed it up

I dont mean this to be in any way offensive but possibly the reason that you arnt getting many replies is that the pictures you have uploaded all make you look gay. The poses are all quite camp and the one with you slightly lifting up your top to show your stomach looks very camp.

Again this is just my honest opinion, i do not mean any offence.

I think you had the same problem as me, for some reason my preferences had changed and were set for male members to contact me only!, so I changed it back to female, did you have the same problem?

Jeez - get a grip !

Which bit of "no offence" or "honest opinion" dont you understand ???

Anyway, thanks for looking at my profile and checking out my furry coat - its one of my favourites and the girls love it. I couldnt care less if i look gay, bi or straight because i get plenty of replies via the main site. Hopefully now that you have sorted out the cause of your problem you will too.
