So people with bossy profiles. You know the profiles that have lots of CAPS LOCK and a massive list of do's and dont's and are generally quite aggressive.
Serious question......do you actually get meets? I ask as I for one immediately hit the back button and never return. Scare me shitless lol. |

They scare me too, they do get meets though, i guess a lot of men arent fussy about what type of person they meet or they are the same as them. |

It's an interesting point ? I'm sure they do but I also tend to walk away if too ranty. I'm sure they could say good the rant filter means horrid people like us don't message them ? |

I think quite often the written word can appear far more aggressive than is actually meant but still some of these profiles are like death threats or ransom notes lol. |

we have put the shouty caps in our profile, but it really hasn't made a difference, we still get people messaging for things we are not into! it probably makes us look angry or maybe unfriendly but its good to be able to point it out to the people that message after just looking at the pics |

Don't you think it is down to the people who create their profile as to how they put it on?
We have lots of capitals, and it is there to do exactly what people are saying on here-make them leave us alone if it offends them.
We have lots of contact, so it can't put everyone off!
The message above is so right;
At least people know where they stand if they choose to message. |

It's THEIR profile. Believe it or not for some people their life doesn't begin and end on Fab. They know what they want and what works for them.
One persons ranty profile is another's fiesty!
The I'm Gods gift, no mingers, fatsos, short arse, baldy, those that fuck black types of profiles hasten me along, but I don't feel the need to berate others on their choices.
Good luck to them. |

Thing is there's no italic, bold etc to emphasis the text: caps is all that's available...not that it makes a blind bit of difference to some! |

True. A profile written in all italic would be a thing of beauty. Mine should written in ComicSans or crayon. |

I think we are getting down to the entire and only point now.
Each profile is our own, not anyone else's and to be fair we can put up anything we want, as our choices are our own.
Of course, putting those choices on a forum then opens our _iews up for debate, both negative and positive, however a profile is you trying to tell everyone else what you want, and what you don't.
We should all respect other people's choices, however a lot on this site still think it is their right to ignore it. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
We have added to our profile and it has cut down significantly the amount of stupid emails we receive, however we do worry that it may be off putting to people who could be a match for us . |

We must say however, that debate is good.
It gives the good people a chance to show that they ARE actually decent, and hopefully it will make the idiots crawl back into the hole they came out of.
Shame it doesn't always work like that! |

Why is that?
If they were a match they would feel the same way and understand what you are saying. |

It doesn't make you look aggressive.
To us it makes you look like you are pissed off with people bothering you who you don't want.
It certainly wouldn't put us off.

So your saying that every single person who reads your profile and isn't interested would not be a good match for you? There is only so much you can get from a profile and even if it puts you off, you may get on perfectly well if you did actually meet in another situation. |

The thing is, we will not meet people in another situation.
The profile is all we have to judge whether we are a match or not.
If you want the same thing and have the same _iews, a few capital letters making it clear what you don't want shouldn't put people off.
Why should it if you are matched? |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
I used to think exactly the same... When I first joined... Omg! How do they get meets with demands and attitudes like that. ..... But after being on fab quite a while... It can turn you like that! As over time I've had the key board wankers... The timewasters.... And just dam stupid requests .... Even with filters .... We are all here for our own reasons and no one's reason is right or wrong! .... I just tend now to be a lot more specific and honest! Not nasty... Just say it how it is regardless.... To the point! .... If I wanted to chat or a social I would have joined pof or match so therefore it's sex for me.... But there is a difference with being horny.... And desperate..... The latter I'm not! Judge me how you see fit! |

Couldn't agree more, it is about fun.
Also about choices we are sure you agree. So if anyone found our profile to be bossy or anything else, we are more than happy for them to pass us by.
Funny enough though, we still get people contacting us.
We guess it always comes down to choices. |

I had preferences on my profile. I done a thread about getting no meets and everyone told me to lose my preferences because it puts people off and too specific. Guys look like they open to anything but only because we don't seem to be able to put any kind of preference down |

Fair enough, but why have you stated you won't meet single guys in CAPITALS, then you don't have the sense to block all single guys? |

As always, our choice.
If a single guy can show the respect and manners to read our profile first, he will clearly know we do not want his attention-very clearly.
So seeing that everyone should show respect to others, he wouldn't contact us then, would he?
Bingo, no need to block.
Or is it wrong to expect of others to show manners and respect for our choices? |

We find the superior statements, threatening and critical comments, excessive SHOUTY CAPITALS off putting. I guess we believe that if their profile is like that then they will be like that and we will not get on. |

Come on. Fab has given you a service whereby you can block single guys if you wish. Use it rather then expect everyone to read through your profile lol. |

What are you trying to prove? Respect is a two way thing you know. It seems totally illogical that you put ranty text about not meeting single guys then don't block them, I bet most guys just message you to wind you up |

We simple expect the same single guys to have the sense to read our profile and respect it.
Seems the sensible thing to do, doesn't it?

Profiles are not for reading??
That speaks volumes for single guys does it not?

We don't mind wind ups, but just one point though, are we on an adult's sites or in a playground of kids? Adults respect choices, kids do silly wind ups, simple really.
And as for the silly boys who try to wind us up, firstly it doesn't wind us up, it just makes us laugh to see how ignorant they are, then they just get spoken to with the contempt they deserve. |

GG4, you choose who you want to meet and we will choose who we want to meet.
It isn't complicated, honesty!
Hence the profile. So people know whether we are matched or not.
If that wasn't the case, why not just put up name and location?
Believe it or not, we are not offended if people choose not to like our profile and walk straight by, in fact we are quite happy! |

My profile is me, yes I'm sometimes ranty, sometimes sweet. If you don't like it, no skin off my nose, I'm not begging for meets. I'm not desperate. Fab is fun, and if you don't get my sense of humour, we're unlikely to click.

"Don't you think it is down to the people who create their profile as to how they put it on?
We have lots of capitals, and it is there to do exactly what people are saying on here-make them leave us alone if it offends them.
We have lots of contact, so it can't put everyone off!
The message above is so right;
At least people know where they stand if they choose to message."
Your profile isnt as bad as some on here though. it sounds polite compared to some on here. |

You can always pass them by. I'm not sure they are supposed to come across as aggressive but many do. I think its more frustration that some people that message them may not have read previous versions of their profile so they get annoyed and change their approach a little to try and get messages from appropriate people but 9 times out of 10, it doesn't work. There is a way of putting your preferences across that is light hearted and fun but few do this so it ends up as an aggressive rant rather than a profile. |

Of course to single guys it is just a shag, however to us we think we are quite capable of choosing whether we want to use CAPS or pages of text. Note we said WANT, a choice thing. LOL.
As always, please feel free to walk away from anything you don't like, but funnily enough, some of these single guys who have commented on here have actually bothered us before!

More importantly to us, it gives a clear message to the people we don't want contacting us.
If it puts a few people off, then we would never know and therefore never miss it!
Actually though, we haven't been short of decent contact yet, so obviously it works just fine for us! |

Of course we get messages from the stupid, rude ignorant single guys who can't be bothered to read our profile.
They soon get told exactly where to go.
They tend to get even more abusive when we ask the simple question 'Did you read our profile' so we have a new tact now. We simply tell them that seeing as they contacted us, send a face photo. Funny enough, guys don't get so abusive when we have that.
Even funnier still, none of it would be needed if they just read our profile.
It always comes back to that... |

"Agree some profiles can look a bit bossy....but it's the any hole's a goal profiles where they seem to have no preferences at all whatsoever which put me off more!
I had preferences on my profile. I done a thread about getting no meets and everyone told me to lose my preferences because it puts people off and too specific. Guys look like they open to anything but only because we don't seem to be able to put any kind of preference down "
How is that working for you?
Somebody sent me a message the other day calling me a nightmare and asking if I got meets. The same profile led to me being contacted by a man who now lives with me and keeping me in a manner I quickly got used to!

Fuk Me....stirred it up a bit didn't you? As a single guy - yeah one of the unclean lepers of fab - i read lots of profiles looking for playmates, yep, i do look at the pics, be a mug not to after all, i'm not here for Blind Date, i also read the profiles, all the way through and sometimes a few times and often i think, oooo, hot, but, their profile chooses specific things and a case of, no message no wink etc, although i may fab a pic or two.
Point is though, how does a single guy get a meet? almost all profiles from couples demand no single guys - often with ranty caps crap .... its no wonder lots still try it on as end result, nothing ventured, nothing gained .... maybe the single girls should be off limits to them also which they don't mind taking? |

Us telling single guys who bother us where to go, does that come BEFORE or AFTER they show their rudeness by either ignoring or not reading our profile?
What relevance does it have about us enjoying it?
Back to the same old thing;
Read the profile, no match just move on, no one has to say anything!
And we are so glad you finally see it from our point of _iew GG4, it is totally our choice.
Not anyone else's, just ours.

Bristol guy, we totally understand your point about how does a single guy get a meet, however if no one wants to meet single guys, you don't get a meet!
The point we will make though, is there are plenty of couples on here who will meet single guys, why not contact them?
We know it is hard for single guys, very hard, however bothering people who don't want them isn't going to get anyone anywhere.

Or is it a case of they do not want mail, not they don't want single guys, rather they choose when and if? How can a single male be respectful and still show an interest? Not all who post the rant and display "no single men" actually mean that all the time as i have seen from meet requests they have posted on the site.
I hope i made it clear in my initial post that i do not message to meet them but may fab a pic or send a couple of lines to say i appreciated/admired the profile or posted images - spect though to some that is wrong to their way of thinking, but, i think my way, not theirs, after all, we all have choices unless others are chat police and deny them.
A lot to be said for respect for others but it goes both ways, offensive id's are not the answer imho |

We for one are certainly not getting our knickers in a twist.
Our simple opinion is this,
Why use a filter, when a clear profile should be enough. Should we all not have a profile and just filter out who we don't want? Is that how it should be?
Problem is, on here, some people lose all their manners and respect for others choices. |

Why not just block those you don't want messaging you then you wouldn't have to write all that in your profile or waste your time reading/replying to those that you're not interested in? Seems to make sense but its your profile so run it in a way that works for you. |

GG4, a sensible question deserves a sensible answer.
No, we would certainly not ban single guys from sites, clubs or anywhere else as long as they showed respect to others just as they would expect the same respect shown to them.
There are plenty of couples who come on this site, and go to clubs who are happy to party with single guys, and good luck to all involved.
There are however, those who don't and they should be respected.
Single guys and couples can live happily together, but only with mutual respect, which seems sadly lacking here.
But a factual tip here, not a personal dig, if a guy inflicted unwanted attention on a couple who clearly said they didn't want their attention, then if that attention continued, it would quickly erupt to violence, and why? Because of unwanted attention.
That behaviour is not tolerated whatsoever, and rightly so as it should not be tolerated anywhere and by anyone.
Same as you being a straight single guy should not have to tolerate the unwanted attention of a homosexual.
We have been to many clubs where there are single guys, and they are as decent and respectful as anyone else.
Why single guys on this site cannot behave the same way? It amazes us!!
Let us correct that, there ARE decent single guys on here, but we don't hear from them because they respect our choices. Not much to ask really... |

"GG4, a sensible question deserves a sensible answer.
No, we would certainly not ban single guys from sites, clubs or anywhere else as long as they showed respect to others just as they would expect the same respect shown to them.
There are plenty of couples who come on this site, and go to clubs who are happy to party with single guys, and good luck to all involved.

I don't meet married guys or smokers which I make clear in my profile but they still message. I just reply with a polite message repeating what my profile says. You can put what you want in your profile but people will either ignore it or not read it, that's life. |

"GG, of course it your choice to message us, but expect the abuse you will get as we never wanted your message in the first place.
Do you do that in real life? Inflict yourself on others when they make it clear they want to be left alone?
Let's be honest, we couldn't make it any clearer."
If you give abuse in mails you are likely to be reported and given a warning.
Your best bet is to block the gender who you don't want mails from.
Another tip is to use the reply and quote so that everyone knows who you are answering.

"How come whe ever I get involved in some banter on the forums I guarantee the mods are all over it in minutes I'm serving time (48 hout timeout) yet this little spat is going the distance. If anyone wants this to end just give me the nod and I'll make a midly inappropriate comment and within seconds post will closed......"
It is such a shame that mods can't and wouldn't put on the forum what people were banned for, as it is never the same as what people complain about. |

"More importantly to us, it gives a clear message to the people we don't want contacting us.
If it puts a few people off, then we would never know and therefore never miss it!
Actually though, we haven't been short of decent contact yet, so obviously it works just fine for us!"

I don't think its angst ridden, for the most part, at least on one side, it is a full on tongue in cheek wind up but some just don't get sarcasm. Im with View on this one |

Maybe you guys should go to a club and try that..."
You're just looking for a fight... in your posts... in your profile... apparently also in real life.
'it certainly wouldn't be a glare'... hilarious. |

Glad you have found it amusing.
Like we keep repeating, our life our choices.
Enjoy making your comments, however we will deal with things just as we see fit.
Simple really, don't read our profile! |

Was thinking similar... A very negative profile that I'm surprised many do actually read as I was fed up of the hate towards single men before it got to what was actually wanted, but guess we're all different which is part of the fun of fab.
Op... Some may read my profile and see it as being demanding or bossy, and maybe I am, but I have tried to keep it as light as I can with some positive notes too. I have also read many other single female profiles when I was looking for an mff with a fb and I gave up because it was bringing me down so hopefully mine is a bit better than those! I like to think it's possible to ask for what you want without being insulting to those who don't fit what you're looking for |

I reckon it's mainly due to the respondents failing to read profiles correctly causes the 'advertizers' to write in capitals to try & reinforce what they're seeking. |

"So people with bossy profiles. You know the profiles that have lots of CAPS LOCK and a massive list of do's and dont's and are generally quite aggressive.
Serious question......do you actually get meets? I ask as I for one immediately hit the back button and never return. Scare me shitless lol."
People do it to discourage a certain type of person and in general most will get meets or they would change it. |

They probably are very easy going, if yours the type of person they're actually looking to meet ie if you met their criteria. Their choice and they're clearly not desperate!! |
