I think if used this way, they can be great.
I realise that can be unpopular though.
To me, it works this way.....
Profile one sends the wink
Profile two winks back
Profile one then sees that as an invite to message.
Sorted.
If we're not sure if we fit what they seek, maybe a couple of years out of age range as an example.

That’s exactly what we do. When it goes wrong/what winds us up is: they wink - we wink - them send a friends request right away... a) that’s rude, b) we’re not the wank bank.. |

Yeah, that's a different subject though.
Friends requests are sometimes sent without any contact, other times at the same time as the initial wink, and other times as soon as they message.
We only accept friends requests if we're chatting with them in regards to an actual meet.

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else |
No.
Firstly, there's no point, as the recipient is unlikely to see it, either because they never check them ,or get so many that one more doesn't stand out.
Secondly, and this is the main one for me, if all I have to say is "wink" then I don't really deserve a response. I expect to have to try a bit harder than that - if it was that easy it wouldn't be much fun trying to have a conversation in person... |

We like winks and use it regularly to show our interest.
There are some who don't like winks ,so we message them if we like their profile,if not just move on .

Absolutely agree with this. Also when you say no thanks and they still ask to be added to your friends list when your profile makes it clear that your friends list is for people you’ve met or arranged to meet. |

"One of the best meets we've had through here began with a wink.
Ended up as regular ish playmates for a while. "
Just seen this...exactly same for me..got a wink from.a couple..ended up having years of fun. Act as a nice intro to express initial interest. Then messaging easier to see where it leads. |

I see it this way, it's like seeing someone you like in person. First you try to make eye contact and maybe s mile at them then the response that you get from their body language will prompt you to go over and say hi or not. So since you can't do that online a wink can work as a sign of showing that like what you see and you're interested. |

I think your dead right, it's them people that need reporting, gives the rest of us a bad name and makes it harder not to be tarred with the same brush |

I totally prefer winks (& says on my profile) to unsolicited messages. It's much easier, they've expressed an interest, I've checked them out ... now if I want to chat I just wink back clearing them for messages plus no need for all this essay/interview type opening messages! And I don't have then moan about the amount of messages ladies receive PLUS I can answer every message! Sorted and simple ... equals everyone's happy! |
