Ladies - do you reply to everyone? I've hidden my profile to look at my inbox from the last two days
It currently stands at 1088
Do you message every guy back 'no thank you' etc
Or just delete
Or maybe block
Do you hide your profiles regularly to sort through them?
I'm getting a bit overwhelmed by it all
(Not a 'look at me' as I'm in hiding)  |

Sometimes I just mass delete. Very rarely though! I would hide it for a few days and any that haven't read my profile or are along the lines of 'fancy a fuk' get an instant delete, those that match what I am looking for and respond to my profile, maybe a short message? Do you have filters up to help? |

We're a couple but no, we don't reply to everyone.
Do you have age and gender filters in place? If you're hiding your profile to sort through messages why not filter everyone out so you don't receive any for that period?
Don't feel you need to respond to everyone, it would become a full time job for you. |

I just remove myself from most searches. ...remove all interests, remove what I'm looking for, set age filters etc. It's much easier to look for yourself and remove yourself from searches if you're feeling overwhelmed. And i ignore messages I'm not interested in. Block and delete if you prefer. I only reply if I'm interested. |

I don't have gender because I want women to message me
Is there a filter for 'my type'  |

Do a methodical cull.
Instantly delete silhouette avatars.
Closely followed by cock avatars.
Then ditch the 'hi, how are you' one liners.
You may not have too many left after that, then you can see if anyone tickles your bits |

It gets mental as a couple / triple . We have had 1500 unread messages on times . 2 percent seem to actually read our profile . You can't reply to all and why should you ? |

if you get overwhelmed you could block everyone and search for the ones you want. We never get more messages than we can handle it must be a nightmare. |

if they've written a proper message, I say no thank you, if I'm not interested and delete the message if they come back whinging or rude they get blocked!
I also block smokers as I can't find a filter for those. It's a deal breaker for me.
ones who just say want a shag get deleted too. |

"I have a couple of guy friends, if I block males, can I still message them? X"
Yes. If you've messaged before you still can.
We sometimes get a build up of five messages and nag each other about replying over a thousand and we'd go into a flat spin |

It's stressing me out, some guys keep messaging
'Not bothered then?'
'Rude not replying'
'???'
It's frustrating |

"Now I can see why messages get lost all the time
I haven't opened it, I'm sorry "
I wasn't meaning you. People I've chatted with in the past that say my messages got lost hence no reply for weeks |

A sea of cock if you will

Why wouldn't you just block those so that they can't do that and stress you out? It's a tool so use it. |

I reply to ones who have actually put some thought into a message even if it's just to say that I'm not looking to meet at the moment but thank you.
Delete the ones asking for a fuck or being generally grim right off the bat and I tend to block some, which are particularly crass. |

I get very little mail, and reply to them all. Filters, filters, filters. Also be aware that as more public pictures you post as more attention you get. Same applies to status updates.
Best is as others suggested, to block all the guys and go and search the juicy ones yourself. Best approach anyway in my opinion |

Yes you can. If you message filter and block guys anyone who you have previously messaged can still message unless you block their profile. And if you wink at someone then they can message |

Initially, I had the same problem. I had to hide my profile to check the messages and do the admin. It eventually got too much wading through the rubbish to find the gems whilst sending 'no thank you' messages and then responding to them.
In the end it was too much. Those that I was humming and ha-ing about dropped off the message list cos I didn't save it. It was a mess...
I have blocked virtually everyone now. I don't search anymore. I only message those who I have met with very few exceptions. If I find someone who is desirable, then I message. If it's a yes, then it's a yes. If no, then no biggie. Plenty of fish out there. (I have been known to contact people complimenting them on their photos).
I hardly ever meet up with anyone through fab now, it's just a communication tool for those that I meet by other means. |

 Exactly what I normally do. I can't even be bothered with that at the moment though so I have turned all my filters on. |

We've always replied to every message, and winks. At the point now that we're thinking it's too much trouble, purely because of the ignorant or rude ones. |

"Oh I've just looked and I didn't realise I could block newbies and ppl without photos x"
The ones with no pic verification (single males pretending to be a couple) are the ones who need deleting/blocking then it's down to preference and what kind of message they sent you *Mr |

Anybody who gets rude or arsey just block them. It's not rude to not reply. |

When I'm looking to meet I reply to everyone that mails because I think it's not polite to ignore or delete.
It's really easy to avoid tons of mail. Cut down on the number/ type of pics. Only have 'men' on the Looking For list for a couple of hours at a time. (Nothing on the Looking For list takes you off the searches and cuts down on mail.)
Hiding my profile cuts down mail to 0. Posting in forums with a suggestive profile pic will mean you still get mail even if hidden.
Leaving my profile with Looking For Men, suggestive pics and ignoring mail would just be the height of rudeness and some ridiculous ego trip. |

I'm not rude or on an ego trip. I posted some public photos and it all went a bit mental.
I spent an hour before work going through messages and got down to just under 800. I mailed 2 back and both are now blocked because their second messages made a bit of sick come up in my mouth.
There is no way I am messaging everyone back. I haven't got time.
I've changed my profile to say 'tell me a joke' so from now on. All messages, apart from Direct from the forum, will be deleted if they haven't read my profile.
I've also hidden all my photos, which is a shame coz they were damn good photos |
