I agree. I would see it as good manners to reply, but it's site rules that they don't have to reply.
At least you can take something from this - they're not interested.
I hate when they've read the message and don't do anything. You don't know if they're not interested or maybe considering you for future.
But rules are rules - apparently you're expected to accept that no answer means 'no'. |

if the message is polite we always reply with a polite thanks but no thanks as that's not what we are looking for, unless the message starts as rude or obscene then they are deleted.
unfortunately not all message are polite and courtious

If they don't or its hi/how's you/ how you finding the site or my fave 'sexy wife' i just delete.

We just had our first block (that we are aware of!). I read a message from a couple who are clearly not our type and I deleted it, I don't know why because I don't normally do that but this time I did. A short while later I got another email from them moaning about how rude we are and that we are now blocked.
The thing is, we have sent messages in the past which are read/deleted straight away. I take that as an automatic no, I certainly dont get my knickers in a twist over it.
So why do other people? |

If they haven't bothered to read my profile, that's when they get ignored! Why should I bother if they don't???
Oh and my profile covers off all the usual shite, to try and cut down on the 'Hi, how are you?'
Doesn't work, coz I still get loads! Proves they haven't bothered!  |

Yes you are expected to accept that no answer means no. Considering the amount of mail that some people receive it's the sensible option and that's without going into the abusive or why dont you want to meet messages that follow. It's not being rude or up yourself. |

I did feel this way in the past when my messages were just deleted then you hear females saying they get 100+ messages a day so its easier just to delete etc etc etc..
regardless, not a single fuck was given that day |

I only block people who have said 'no' or I don't meet their requirements - just so they don't come up in a search. |

I used to reply with a polite thanks but not what I'm looking for, the majority were fine but some would send very abusive messages back so I no longer bother, I'm not on here to be verbally abused by an immature child who's had a hissy fit. Some couldn't take a no and then kept messaging asking why, what's my type, what am I looking for etc. I'd rather be ignored than strung along and then just ignored or blocked, that's just a waste of my time. |
