Why do people view a profile which the person is out off there age range just seems a bit silly to me , cause if you like the people who viewed you and what to thank them plus show interest you can't due to there age filters . So wouldn't it be better if the site would only allow people who are looking for that age group to view the other persons profile that way if person viewed liked they could reply or am i missing something . Cheers all  |

Thank them for what? Looking?
What if they looked and thought "arrrrrgh - my eyes!!!!!!"? What if they looked and weren't the slightest bit interested?
People look for all kinds of reasons - idle curiosity, because you've posted a status update or forum comment. Looking bears no correlation to interest.

people change their filters quite sporadically. They ma like a change according to the type of meet they want. For the site to facilitate that kind of filter processing, I expect it would need the computing power of NASA.
It is frustrating - but you just have to look at the details of a profile fully before you write a message really. |

"Plus you dont need to thank people for looking at your profile,if they want to message they will.
I usually thank only the one's that i can reply too due to liking there profile and think it shows good manners . "
Why is it good manners to thank someone for viewing your profile ? |

That's why I've hidden myself from who's looked at me... |

I look at lots of profiles mainly because I'm a nosey buggar.  Might be because of a forum post, status updates, avatar pic...to name a few reasons.

I don't even really understand why the site has the "who viewed me" function. If someone has looked at your profile and is interested they'll contact you. If they view it and don't contact you, then they're probably not interested. |

Me too...you might have good intentions but it doesn't seem like altruistic good manners, more like jumping on a potential 'in'.... |

most profiles have an age range, say for arguments sake it is 25 - 45.
In some cases these figures are not set in stone.
I've browsed profiles of women and couples and found even though I'm outside their preferences they get back to me.
I think the age ranges are a rough guide for some, depending on their mood and circumstance.
Things are just fine the way they are. |

Wtf why would you thank someone for looking at your profile?? Surely the fact they didn't bother to message should be enough of a hint to not message them   |

I don't want thanked for looking at a profile.
If I like what I see, I will contact someone, but I cannot know that til I look... but for someone I may have looked at a profile and thought "Ye gods, just not for me" to then message to say thanks for looking is just another add to the block list.
Another stealth perv here! |

Most of the ladies on fab have more than enough messages to deal with from other fabsters looking for a meet with them without having to deal with a 'Thanks for looking at my profile' message.
I appreciate that you're just trying to be polite etc OP, but you may actually find that your good intentions are either not being appreciated, going unnoticed, or even pissing a few people off.
As has been said, many users browse in stealth mode for pretty much this exact reason. |

"Ffs will keep mouth shut in future not wanting to start world war 3 "
So some people haven't agreed with you and have said why they don't think it's a good idea. Hardly starting WW3....
Why let it stop you posting your opinions / ideas. Be boring if we all thought the same... |

I wouldn't even start to try and understand why some people on here do some of the things they do, it'll drive you bonkers. Fortunately, I already am so no harm done! Why not ask them, then you'll know  |

On a point of order, just what have you been eating if your shit is that hard it can be gripped? And how did you find out it could be?  |
