When chatting to someone in a club you'd always ask them either their name or how they are etc but wouldn't go into a full five minute monologue about who you are or what you do and what you like before giving them the chance to speak.
How come on here then simple hi's seem to be disliked and you have to write war and peace in first mail. I agree though a simple hi followed by a "I'm free fancy a fuck" is terrible as you'd never do tat to a stranger in a club.
What's your best opening message you've received? |

The ones where they have mentioned somethig in my profile ... with a bit of non cheesy non crap humour
If they say ' do you want to play' or get ' nawty' I know they haven't read my profile
La la la ... I shall never change either |

I would ignore war and peace, especially if it is longer than their profile
Something that refers to the profile, funny and a little about them that is not on their own profile |

"Chatting in a club is not the same as a written message. There's no body language to go on. So a 'hi' is pretty pointless. How am I to respond to that?"
Yep, spot on. I had one of those rare messages the other day which literally just said "Hi".
My response of "Hi back" didn't generate much interest. Remember what you write, doesn't necessarily get read in the context you wrote it. |

I don't want War and Peace, had enough of that in uni. However, a quick reference to my profile, a little something to make me want to reply, something witty maybe, would work wonders.
My profile tells you a lot about me, why would I reply to a "what you looking for?" |

I like to have a giggle at the immaturity of those who send ones like "fancy a fuck" or "I want to destroy you" not sure why these guys think they'll work, maybe they do with some?!! I liked the one a guy sent saying "I want to tear your ass apart with my huge cock" !! I sent a pic back of me doing a guy with a strap on and said "only if I can do the same to you" He never replied and blocked me, bloody coward haha |

When I am chatting face to face the chat flows. On here it certainly doesn't, especially if someone goes offline. Just saying 'hi' in a message on here is the same as saying 'hi' in a club then just staring at the person. |

As others have said, something that refers to the profile and something that is aimed at both of us.
Pet hate is when people ask how are we finding the site. What the fuck does that even mean? |

yep
hi
hey
hows you
and so on, all pointless.
if we are logged in then you can take it as read we are ok.
if we were ill we wouldnt be logged in here now.
have had some well composed messages so have replied to them.
have had some decent conversation with people too, and may well take it further at some point.
however, when introducing oneself, do you really need to tell someone how big you are and how you use it? |

My absolute pet hate are the long rambling scenarios of what they will do. They read like the worst kind of erotic fiction and match absolutely nothing on my profile. Sometimes they are even frightening when they suggest they would like to strap me down and then get a load of strangers to use and abuse me. There is absolutely nothing on my profile which would remotely suggest I would be in to that. |

Some of those are just so bad they become comedy gold. It is always so tempting on the 'tie you down' scenarios to reply with, 'Do you know I once read a book by Houdini?' |

The thing is that they are so truly dreadful, with situations and positions which would be nigh on physically impossible unless with a circus contortionist on crack, that you know they would be an utterly useless shag and would probably come before they got their pants off. |

You say that now, but after 5 minutes of the sound of my voice, you'll be wishing you had a little yellow van and a group of chaps on speed dial so they can come and take me away |

Its a sex site, nothing wrong with fancy a fuck, that's what most people are here for, better than talking about the weather. |

But it's a non-sensical message. 'Fancya fuck?' Erm, yeah, I am on a sex site. But not just any old fuck! |

Hi is boring.
It means "I'm interested but I can't be bothered to actually start a conversation, so I am putting the onus on you to make the effort".
Considering that a lot of men who send "hi" messages have very scant profiles, that can be really difficult to do.
If someone can't make an effort when they message me, I usually won't feel like making the effort to reply. |

How thoroughly unreasonable of you, especially since you are here, you are obviously desperate and gagging for it! |

Ha. After all these months and reading the first line on your profile the meaning of your user name has only just occurred to me! I can be a little slow sometimes |

I used to have a simple opening message too. I didn't get many replies, or if I did it was just "thx hun, how's u?" which didn't go any further.
So I tried a fresh approach. I tried writing something that was brief, witty, some extra news about me plus a few things from their profile (which is difficult where details are scant).
When I thought I had created something that was personal, amusing, and novel I would send it off. I thought I would get replies from the more discerning reader. One came in this morning. It said "thx hun, how's u?" |

Strangely enough, I (Rick), find it far easier to express views and feeling, using the written word, than I do in person. When trying to speak to a lady, I usually end up making a cock of myself. I contacted a couple, via a long email, a few years back. It was an approach to set up a meet between them and Sandra. We did meet the couple and the lady didn't take to me at all, but she told me I wrote a lovely, carefully worded email. I'm just not good at face to face small talk. I tend to say very little, which comes across as being disinterested. |

We have been asked this question. Personally, I don't have a problem with it. I see it as a simple enquiry as to how effective someone finds this site. That could mean, have they had any or many successful meets. Or how friendly people are. I don't see it as offensive. Only if its followed up by "fancy a meet", even though the person in question didn't meet our requirements in any shape or form. |

I suppose "fancy a really good, earth shattering, multi orgasmic fuck" could win you over then ? |
