I like getting a memo or two. I find this is about right for me. I have memoed plenty ladies on here, (I am looking to meet). One such lady even managed to persuade me to get off my rear and get out. I like communication. That means memo, text or verbal etc etc. Not sure I could cope with dozens and dozens like some must get a day, (sorry if one of, lol)

I suppose it depends on if you want the contact. Someone you like, great!

If at first you don't succeed, try, try and try again. Apparently that's what got me the restraining order :P This signature has been left blank intentionally. | |

I quite often send a memo to either say thanks for someone's company at an event or to say thanks for an invite to a future event and that's fine I think. There's no real need for a reply, it's just a courtesy thing. If I'm memoing a Friend then I do adopt the 'ping-pong' approach and include everything I've got to say in one go. They may not reply straight away even if they sign-in to IC for a number of reasons, too busy etc, not in the right frame of mind. Even with Friends you must respect their privacy. Once I receive a reply then a further dialogue is appropriate. If however, I were to memo someone I don't actually know or only slightly know then it is an absolute 'no no' to send a follow up a memo. I have on two occasions received a scary number of memo's from two male IC members I hadn't met. I requested them not to contact me further or to contact Hanchi first. The result was that I had to ask Hanchi to memo them to desist. It's very unnerving and quite unneccessary to bombard someone with memos, it'll just put the recipient off as it did me. Indeed one the persons was memoing from a bogus profile which is even more scary. If I can get through a day without upsetting anyone or anyone upsetting me, then that's a good day.

I ping pong, using quotes for longer messages. More than a couple from the same person without conversation inbetween is a bit much IMHO. The amount of time I have to respond each day differs; sometimes a flurry of quick, short memos can be more effective than a long one that takes 30 mins to respond to properly.

ooh i love getting them.. my gets a little flutter as i clumsily rapidly click on the link... Obviously I think it must be different for sub guys to dom girls who get loaded with 'wank memos'.. :p a place where all who roam, goto sooth their tones, course voices can whisper their thoughts, they will hear a slow pace, of firey ryimes and deshelved minds, where these wiery souls , rest their tired tired feet, but rich and generous a scene, that is duly repeat, as is known as the buskers retreat | |

I apparently received a memo from someone very special to me a few years ago. For whatever reason (deleting in error or on purpose) I don't remember receiving it. Anyway, some time later he sent me another memo - and I thank my lucky stars that he took the trouble. 'A woman, without her man, is nothing. | |

I rarely memo people unless I have a reason. I might memo them again if I forgot something in the original memo, but will say, I forgot to add this....
Then I wait for response. Unless it is business, then I might send a gentle reminder/enquiry. If I don't get a reply to that, I move on, because I like professional people. If it is a proper intelligent, personal conversation, I will generally move to email, as these little quote boxes are hell. Also, you can keep the thread and context of the conversation by changing the font colour. That way, you can get an email back days later and the conversation still makes sense. If it is the hi how are you, next memo, have you had a good day, next memo, blah blah, I might put off replying simply because it is stupid and a waste of space. If they don't write anything sensible within a couple memos, they will probably be forgotten on the 2nd or 3rd page of memos. Not ignored intentionally, but simple pragmatism that if they ask 3 silly questions, they might ask 5 and I can reply, Hi, fine, thanks, how are you? My day has been lovely and yes, the weather is nice." All in one memo! I find those continual memos very very annoying, simply because they waste space. I was going to ask Admin (or check the thread history) if he has thought about the option to mark a memo as to not be deleted in 7 days. Time passes so quickly when you get older!!!! I know you can save to email, but if you set your filters to sort IC in a folder, they get mixed up with the notifications.
