Replying to messages/flirts

January 30 2011

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it upsetting or rude that people do not reply to winks or messages that have been sent to them? I know a lot of people do it, and maybe they are ok with it, but I am of the old school and a simple thanks, but no thanks would be polite and just a little bit more polite than simply ignoring attention. I am always careful when I read profiles and try to only send to those I think may reply, but it dissapoints me when people don't have the manners to reply back. Ok, now thats a little rant off my chest. :o)

    I reply to every message I receive but get hundreds of flirts and so almost never reply to them. Every now and then I may look through a few but the amount of time required to read every profile and respond to every flirt is more than I am able to put in. My profile states that I am not likely to reply to flirts, so anyone reading it would not expect a reply.

    I reply to every message...might take me a while...but I eventually get there! As for Flirts, I don't reply to the ones that say "I just wanted to say I love your profile" or the Hot ones..they get deleted! The rest I do answer though! < If people are not replying..don't stress on it too much! Do you really want to meet inconsiderate people like that anyway? xFunlovingx

    We actually get so excited when we get a reply to a wink or a message as it means we have struck a decent person. Funny thing, when occasionally visiting a club or party and we find out the handle of people and they turn out to be non repliers, whenever they ask us to play we then ignore them. karma

    i always reply.....as fun_n_wild69 said, its courteous to reply if someone has taken the time to contact you. That being said, im not exactly being bombarded with messages, so its easy for me to reply......hahahaa xo

    Hi guys!!! We always reply to messages. But must admit I wouldnt be suprised to find that the occational flirt slips through...You know when you jump on quickly... Its a pity there isnt a 'replied' tag for flirts received like there is for our sent ones. xx

    I agree, its common courteousy to reply and say thanks but no thanks. You can even setup a template reply just for this reason. As someone who has previously had a couples profile on here, I know how many messages and flirts couples and girls receive but taking 3-4 seconds to let someone know that your not interested when they may have spent 5, 10, 20 minutes deliberating over what to write (at least thats what I do), I feel is the least you can do. I actually had this happen this morning, a girl I sent a message to=o a while back sent me a quick reply which may or may not have been a template reply which read something along the lines of: Thank-you for taking the time to write to me, unfortunately I do not think we are compatible and I dont wish to waste your time of messages. I wish you all the best in your RHP adventures. Simple, to the point and the height of good manners. :-)

    I have to say, that as a guest, I find the flirts extremely limiting. As a man, I do not get hundreds of them, and the ones I do send are always inadequate in getting the point across. I know there are those that say I should just buy a membership, but I do find it slightly unfair that I am limited to zero messages as a male guest, something I believe is not the case for female guests. I am therefore stuck sending flirts to get the attention of women who have recieved hundreds of them, and therefore pay them no mind. And those who are interested in learning more about you say "Message me."

    I find it pretty tough going when i bother to write an email, maybe actually spend some time if i think it's worth it and then to not have a response. My question is this, are the non responders the same people that complain of stalkers? or people being rude? Suspect that some might get pissed off and have a go if they are ignored, which isn't that unreasonable.

    I would be tempted to simply print it out and frame it in the pool room!!!

Simple, to the point and the height of good manners. :-) i wish i could get even a flirt or message sent to me.I have always seen the flirt system as a way of getting the person attention (like a virtual wave hello) but it seems most in here just see it as annoying .90% of my messages are read but never replied to, but i still keep trying :)i simply think it's up to person to have or not have manner (i better stop sending them to rude people i think )

    We reply to all messages but only some flirts but we do look at the flirt’s profile. So they have succeeded in getting our attention. There is little effort put in by someone sending a flirt and we only reply if we have something in common.
