Stealth mode. . .
Jump to: Newest in thread
I rarely go ninja that way.
If someone sees me look at their profile more than once, then the deserve to know I've found it interesting or sexy. That for whatever reason the effort they put in has been noticed.
Also a good way to initiate things on occasion
I make no secret of the fact I openly revisit certain profiles. Theyre good profiles! |

Yep. Always stealthy! Stops people thinking I'm actually stalking them when I'm really just clumsy and hit their name instead of message or anywhere else on the screen. |

We use it because we're not always together when looking so sometimes multiple looks have received various messages with things like...
'You keep looking but not messaging, either message or you must be fake'
'You're obviously a perv hiding behind a couple profile. Keep looking but no moves? Wank over someone else's pics'
On the plus it gave us a good idea of them from the off so saved us the bother of messaging them; might switch it off again  ...L x |

A bit silly considering the nature of the site. If we all applied such artifice as stealth and no profile views, blocking etc, it would be completely pointless being here. |

"I’m happy for people to know I’m enjoying there pics and statuses "
Trouble is, there are some guys who will see that a woman has looked at their profile, and consider this an invitation to bombard them with unwanted attention. |

"Yep, saves people messaging when they see you have looked
Plus I forget who I look at, so wouldn't want to appear stalkerish lol
I do this too!"
Me to... Plus if I've looked and there not for me then they message it's just awkward  |

In and Out if it all the time, so much so I wish it was a hot link on mobile home page - so I could toggle it quicker ...
Always Off - for Hot matches & hot profiles
Always On ( Stealth ) - for checking unsolicited non-matches or msgs etc.
I think it’s okay / ish - but if your not one of the guys who simply bulk spam messages - then one of your strategies might be about noticing people noticing you before you message them ...
So not sure if all ladies who might like my profile ( even if it’s just to appreciate it ) realise that there is no way I will know you like or might be interested if you’re in stealth ALL the time !
So lack of feedback is possibly a downside to Stealth Mode ...

"Only turned it on recently mainly because after we looked at someone we got a message say hey seen ya looking there fancy a chat etc etc. If we want to chat well send a message."
But most don’t message first - even if they like the profile ?? They’re way too busy ( or too gorgeous to make the first move ?? |

"Do you use it

Yes.
No can't see why it would be unfair
Yes I know what it is.It stops me getting messages just because I looked at a profile. |

Can have have a good old perv, without receiving dozens of messages asking to meet when i’m just window shopping

Stealth mode is so I can check profiles without receiving messages saying hey you looked at me!
If I'm interested I'll message x |

You do realise that when you come out of stealth any profiles you have looked at recently will see you have looked too? So your "Always Off" candidates would see if you had looked at them when you flip to an "Always On" one - if they'd not had anyone else look at them since you did? |

It's my default mode.
Yes it is fair for us to keep our views private. Because some might treat it as a green light for contact when it was just a simple curiosity peek. Well at least that is my take on it. |

It has its perks i guess...
Would be great if fab did a (stealth over stealth) option for members who have been on here for a year or so.
Meaning you can see if someone has viewed youre profile whever they are in stealth mode or not.
Just a thought...

Use it always and don’t think it’s unfair.  It stops any unsolicited messages from viewed profiles that become aggressive thinking they’re entitled to a reply.

I did think about that very recently - and therefore invented the rule - that once I go Stealth - then I stay stealth for rest of the day .... ( since “looked at you” usually resets after 24 hours / Midnight ) ... or at least until I have completed any reconnaissance required
Seems to work - haven’t been blocked in ages?!?

Always in stealth because I am just bloody nosey and doesn't mean I fancy the person.
If you view mens profiles, 70-80% message assuming you were interested |

I don’t use it. I find that when someone’s sees you have looked at them 9 out of 10 times they will look at you. Sometimes it’s the start of something, other times not. It’s nice to know someone is checking you out at the end of the day |

I dont use it, if I view a profile I dont mind that they know I looked...intact a probably prefer it. Saying that, I can see how it would be a useful thing for women as it might actually double their already massive message count. |
