We might get shot down for this one but life is to short. We get a fair few memos from people, always good to receive, but a small minority have not taken the time to complete the basics on their profile. These "incomplete" profiles we reject out of hand, is this to strict a rule to apply? Why do people not fill in even basic details? Is it laziness on their part? Any suggestions? | |

I don't think it is too strict, if you are contacting people you should, at the very least, fill in some details.

It's up to you how you want to sort your responses, nobody else has the right to criticise your decision. Perhaps some people just genuinely don't know what to write on a profile? Lady Anna http://www.ladyanna.co.uk/ | |

I never know what to write on mine (and it said so on my profile for the first few days) I then changed it to something that gave anyone reading it a little more, but my profile is a non-seeking one and I only contact people I know or to comment on something on the boards, I don't think that having a blank profile is acceptable if you are contacting people. Also, despite the fact that I have 'I am not seeking' right at the top of my profile I get enough 'Will you spank me Mistress' memos from men with profiles both blank and filled. Original Alice | |

I dont see how it can be anybodies decision but your own, who you care to interact with and respond to. You might miss out on genuinely interesting people thats just too lazy to fill it out, or it might save you alot of effort dealing with timewasters...who knows... http://www.thepainfiles.com - Hardcore Original BDSM | |

It doesnt take 5 minutes to write out a profile, so as far as im concerned those that do have empty ones arnt worth the trouble of replying to.x Submission isn't a gift, it's like respect... | |

We both feel that if you don't know what to write, fil in what your looking for then add that your profile is a "work in progress". Ours started very small and we add/ delete as we go along. Edited 11 Sep 07, 12:19 PM by Peterboroughpair | |

I'm one of the lazy camp  ... though have just recently put some basic info down cos I was shamed into it.To be frank, it's just not important to some people so it doesn't get filled in but I'd agree, if you're going to memo people with the hope of meeting up, then a blank profile doesn't really help though an eloquent introduction by memo may overcome that - I wouldn't not meet/talk to someone solely on the basis that their profile is blank ... reckon this'll be more a problem for women than men as we don't get bombarded by memos.

Yeah, the enigmatic "Mysterious stranger" approach doesn't work. =========================== | |

LOL I've found having a blank profile seems to have put a stop to those so far.
