its on the faq.. no reply is a no thanks.

Now as we are a couple and not got lots of meets up.. our mesaages are manageable.. when I was on as a single female. Even without a meet up. I could get 50 to 100 messages a day... put a new photo up and that doubles... add a meet and easily 400 messages.

Trust me its not that they think they are special. Also no thanks messages are often replied with nasty messages. Like " didn't want to fuck a fat ugly slut like you anyway "

We don’t have to reply. I usually do but get sick and tired of the abuse because I say no!

I don’t fancy everyone on here and I don’t expect everyone to fancy me. But it’s up to me how i use my profile and respond to messages

As per the site FAQs:

"It's not rude not to reply.

Some ladies and couples get hundreds of messages a day so it simply isn't possible for them to reply to everyone. If you don't get a response, you should assume they aren't interested. If you're getting a lot of "no-replies" then you should consider your profile and the messages you send. Are they giving the right message? Are you standing out from the thousands of other guys on here? "

With the best will in the world, many women simply don't have the time to reply to every message they get. It would be a physical impossibility. They also have lives - and real life stuff sometimes gets in the way of Fab admin .... it's not about them being rude, or 'up themselves' or similar. It's about logistics and their personal choice about how to spend their time

Got to remeber a large percentage are a bit sad and insecure and life away from the keyboard isnt workinh out. Everytime they recieve and ignore a message they get a little feeling of power and worth. Just let them have it, bless em. I mean 'aw diddums' . Wow life must be bad to feel the need to say that

Exactly. Why message me in the first place with fancy a fuck or your gorgeous. When I havnt got any pics at all. It's not about girl power im a equal I don't put myself above anyone. But guys messaging a blank account unfortunately does make me feel jaded about anyone who messages me. Makes me feel worthless and just like a slab of meat. Not saying I wanna be wined n dined but the type of message that sticks out to me is one that's personalized. Doesn't need to be an essay just some thought to it.

Ex-hi witch are you really as witch, is that why you have got no pics?

We all use this site for our fun and if i was expected to reply to every message or wink, i would never have time to do my job, meet or play

we all use our profiles how we see fit and if people read the Terms and conditions it says "no reply means no thanks"

maybe people should read the small print occasionally

And that's exactly it OP and highlights exactly why women don't reply to every message - if a profile with no words or pictures can amass 341 messages from blokes desperate enough to message regardless imaging what it must be like for profiles that have more than that.

It's not "girl power" stuff either - it's common sense and logic - to take the above example if each of those 341 messages was replied to at let's say 3 minutes per message (by the time the original message has been read, profile of the sender viewed and reply written) that's over 1000 minutes just to deal with those!!

Then you get the replies to the reply and the vicious circle continues.

So far from being ignorance it's a perfectly acceptable response to not reply.

Looking at it another way - do you send a reply to every piece of junk mail you receive unrequested from the Nigerian Prince who wants to give you money, or the local pizza place etc? No? Thought not, the principle is the same here.

The ladies get too many messages so I believe they can't reply to all , plus a lot of guys enable disrespectful behaviour from the ladies too so that's why it is the way it is, if you travel around the world you will see that ladies are different from other cultures and might treat you differently

yes it can be a lot of admin work if you answer every message

Try to reply to most but I certainly don't feel obliged to reply to guys that don't meet what we are looking for. Then we have a fair few repeat messengers that we haven't met and seem to disappear come a time we are available. As said above, the site is here for us all to enjoy how we wish.

OP try sitting next to some ladies who are accessing their been Fab accounts after a long day at work.....to find scores of messages from men along the lines of "wanna fuck now?" Or "are you horny?" Or even "wuu2 I'm wanking"

Ladies are often bombarded with such works of high literature and simply do not have the time to reply.

And often when she says "no thanks" she gets more messages....either "awww why not?" Or abuse "i wouldn't fuck you anyway"

Ladies are under no obligation to reply to anyone. Stop being so entitled

We have never had the problem of having hundreds of messages a day,but I do wonder with all the filters available on this site why the popular ladies and couples do not use them? That way they would not get all these unwanted messages and no one would get bent out of shape. Is it a case of "I think the lady/couple does protest to much"?

I am pretty sure that most users do not wish to "block everyone" and would prefer to use the site in a manner which allows suitable men to initiate contact with them.

No, they don't. A lot of women (and couples) here get fed up with endless crass messages from guys who haven't bothered to read their profiles first. They also tend to get far more messages than guys do because there are so many more men here. Sorry but we're not going to reply to anyone who hasn't first bothered to find out if they even remotely fit what we're looking for.

"Even when someone messages me who I'm not really into I'd always reply and let them know but the amount of women who just read your message and delete it is highly annoying..a lot of women on here think their shit don't stink "

Depends on the kind of message. Sometimes it’s better to delete then engage. Especially if it’s too forward.

"Sometimes I wonder if all single men should be barred from sending messages to ladies and couples.

If would stop guys being silly and starting moaning threads like these.

It would also put a stop to the ladies and couples being bombarded with messages.

That's be throwing the baby out with the bath water. There are a lot of genuine single guys on here that are balanced, sane and normal. I will leave it to the women and couples to seek them out. But just sometimes, these people write too and their messages get lost in the sea of bullshit they receive.

Ladies and couples could message guys though.

So... this morning i put my neck on the line, and conducted a little social experiment on an 'ignorance thread'. The results were very predictable. So a lady puts a negative, derogative nasty comment, and .....nothing absoloutely nothing. I (a single male) do the same....and guess what 1000s of comments having a go at me. But hey, theres no ignorance or double standards going on here. Noooo way after all us men are all the same , we all message blank profiles and say hey wanna bum? God its tiring reading through the bullshit . Anyway im off to copy and paste to a 1000 profiles......

It's easy to reply to 1 or 2 messages a day. Takes up a bit more of life to reply 50.

Stop your whining and concentrate on those that do reply. Although you may want to UNLOS after this thread and start afresh.

I always reply to messages, but then I get so few that's easy to do.

If someone deletes my messages, so be it. If they reply then that's nice, even if it's a "no thanks". If they take they time to reply then I always reply to their reply wishing them luck (unless they've blocked me).

Manners don't cost anything, but time does and if I had 200+ messages a day I wouldn't reply to them all.

Drives me nuts that one....it has been misappropriated so often it has wormed it's incorrect way into the dictionary!!

Anyway, replying to every message on here would be the equivalent of writing to every single company that sends you junk mail or spam - do you do that I wonder OP? Are you 'ignorant' for not doing so?

I set out very clearly what I am looking for in my profile. If a 25 yr old passing trucker from Wales with nothing but cock pics on his profile tells me I have great tits and asks me if I'd like to visit him in Clacket lane services for a shag - guess what, it's junk mail, and I am NOT going to reply!

I really do think you're 'hearing what you want to hear.'

Nobody seriously thinks all single guys here are the same but there are an awful lot who just mailshot females/couples without a thought then wonder why they either don't get any replies or get told to go away. Why should anyone have to reply to dozens of random messages every week just to make the senders feel better about their laziness?

We've met and chatted to some really nice guys here but I don't suppose you'll care or remember about that comment because it contradicts your claim. The thing about them is that they bothered to find out what we were looking for BEFORE they contacted us. Plain common sense really but a fair few guys here don't seem to exercise it (note how I didn't say ALL guys).

Ironically you're indulging in the sort of negative stereotyping you claim to be the victim of. It eventually becomes self-fulfilling...

Social experiments require control groups often double blind testing and a systematic approach to interrogation of data.

A whiny post based on self selecting respondents is no social experiment...just another whinge on another day by anothef guy on fab...

Ladies are often bombarded with such works of high literature and simply do not have the time to reply.

And often when she says "no thanks" she gets more messages....either "awww why not?" Or abuse "i wouldn't fuck you anyway"

Or do you want ppl on here to take forever writing courteous 'no thank you but thanks for inquiring'

You need to think how ppl feel with upwards of 50 messages a day, as much as most will want to reply they simply can't.

Get that in your head and you'll enjoy this place that little bit more........only a bit though as it's frustratingly difficult.

Really. Sit next to your female Fab friends and just observe as they open their inboxes after a few hours offline.Is it not the case you can block everyone if you choose to do so?

I am pretty sure that most users do not wish to "block everyone" and would prefer to use the site in a manner which allows suitable men to initiate contact with them."

Last time we looked we could not find a filter that said "suitable men only". But it sounds like a good idea.You should suggest it to admin.

I've never had more than 200 messages and once been here for a few weeks/months they soon reduce drastically.... Amazing how filters work.

I used to reply to the majority with a polite no thanks, but it's a boring thing to do. You men mainly have to send a message a woman has to reply to several, so I understand why not everyone bothers to reply.

Nope .... but when you have 150 messages, it takes ages to reply...then you get more messages from guys asking “why am I not your type” “can you look at my profile and give me feedback” “ok can we just chat though”. So in being polite I now have to either reply again or be a bitch and block them ...can’t win. I’ve said before we need an instant “thanks but no thanks “ button which send a message and if they try to reply another instant message reminding them we’ve already said no

perhaps you'd like to actually try it, it's boring after a while, particularly when they don't have the courtesy to read a profile, do you reply to every piece of junk mail or every unwanted text or email you get saying not interested?

We don't get many messages. We are filtered to the max and I deliberately made our profile hostile. This is because we didn't want to be accused of being rude by not replying, yet we were tired of the daily admin task of having to reply to messages. A hostile profile seemed to be a good compromise. I do wish single guys would be a bit more understanding on this matter though, because after 3 years on Fab replying to unwanted messages, it's starts to become a tedious daily chore. You know, go to bed each night and think 'I suppose we'd better reply to those messages'. And when a couple does that every night, surely they can be forgiven for thinking 'I don't feel like replying to messages to night - I'd rather have a cuddle and talk about something else'. But then the messages build up if a night is taken off from replying. We signed up to Fab to have fun, not do admin. But the guys that throw about accusations of rudeness, I wonder how long they would be willing to do this daily admin chore before they thought 'fuck it, I'll just delete, it's not like I know them'. Would they really be willing to do this on a daily basis year after year?

Its not hard or long to write "im not interested" you dont have to reply to their 2nd, 3rd, 4th msg. perhaps you'd like to actually try it, it's boring after a while, particularly when they don't have the courtesy to read a profile, do you reply to every piece of junk mail or every unwanted text or email you get saying not interested? Perhaps you'd like to try doing so for a week or so then you'd understand!! Please do let us know how you get on with this!"

A hundred messages at 2-3 minutes per message. Given that you need to read theirs, check their profile and then concoct a quick reply that's about four hours per day. Might got consider for a moment that the ladies of Fab have lives?

I ignore 99% of my messages and no I don't feel guilty, if men are such sensitive souls then they shouldn't be on a site like this, so my words of advise are: Suck it up buttercup!

I owe absolutely nothing to whomever deems to send a message to me

Faqs say no reply = no.

Women are on here for their own reasons, not to jump just because some guy sent a message.

Guys who think we owe them anything on here will not do well. And insulting the women of Fab, just because some of them don't like you, reduces the odds of success.

And then whining about it reduces the odds to zilch

"Even when someone messages me who I'm not really into I'd always reply and let them know but the amount of women who just read your message and delete it is highly annoying..a lot of women on here think their shit don't stink its on the faq.. no reply is a no thanks.

Now as we are a couple and not got lots of meets up.. our mesaages are manageable.. when I was on as a single female. Even without a meet up. I could get 50 to 100 messages a day... put a new photo up and that doubles... add a meet and easily 400 messages.

Trust me its not that they think they are special. Also no thanks messages are often replied with nasty messages. Like " didn't want to fuck a fat ugly slut like you anyway ""

So true

But do you get hundreds of messages a week? Do you get hundreds of messages a week from people who haven't bothered reading the basic information on your profile? Do you get abuse when you say a polite no thanks and ten more messages wanting to know why not, trying to convince you they have a foot long cock so nothing else matters? Do you have about four or five hours free time everyday to reply to the messages? The more time you're online the more messages you get.

Since you didn't bother to do a forum search for your topic I doubt you read all profiles checking that someone is looking for you before you contact them. Do you really want people to reply and say sorry but I'm not attracted? When you reply some don't take the polite hint and after ten messages you have to be that blunt. You won't get any sympathy, just a lot of women blocking you. One thing guarantees I won't reply and that's profiles that moan about people not replying, particularly when they can't be bothered to read profiles first.

"But its not everyone that is nasty/rude. Me personally I like closure. Just a simple "not interested" aint long to write. I read all profiles and dont geta reply c'mon now dont I deserve a little closure for that."

If someone doesn't reply to you that means "no thanks" anyway.

Well if the woman is someone the man wouldn't look sideways at in a club then presumably there is no message to be replied to and hence the argument irrelevant. I mean surely no self-respecting man would message a woman or couple who he considers to be not good enough for him or not his type?

I have to agree ignorance is frustrating. If I read a message I will reply back but tbh women get that many messages that it's impossible to read them all and reply. Call me ignorant if you want but I find its best not to read some that way it's not as bad as just deleting them...oh and my shit stinks as much as anyone else's.

OP I can see from clicking on your profile that you messaged me 3 months ago and I didn't reply.

I'm not arrogant, nor do I think I'm better than anyone we - the reality of the matter is that your profile just didn't appeal and your message was probably vulgar or rubbish as usually I do try and send a polite no thanks if people have made the effort to write more than one line.

Your attitude on this thread hasn't really shown you in a good light either...

One of the more amusing anecdotes, we held a BBQ earlier this year and by chance all our friends attending were in Fab. Two of the ladies received the same unimaginative message film a guy in the area in his car at the exact same time. The third lady said, "why did he not message me? Am I not good enough for his car?"

Btw there's no clique in this thread as your status suggests. It's true most people are agreeing in this particular instance, but the same people on this thread who are agreeing that it is impractical to reply to every message, often disagree on other threads.

There are alot of people who do just clearly ignore or delete messages and alot of the time there are good reasons, like clearly not reading profiles or the usual, fancy a fuck messages. Also single ladies and cpls also tend to get so so many messages that it's almost impossible sometimes to reply. We however always try to reply to all even if a simple no Thanks, but again we are aware that we haven't always so apologies if we haven't to yours but it's never deliberate.

We had a message from a guy yesterday. It seems he had messaged us a year ago and we had replied. He had a picture of his tummy and didn't send a face pic. He complimented us for our pictures and asked us if we had any fun lined up for the weekend. Judging from his profile he's very into dogging which we are not interested in. Our profile says that we only meet new people in clubs or parties and that we don't use Fab for chatting. Do we have to reply to that? We don't like being rude, but he was a random faceless stranger asking us an intrusive question. And if we are to reply, what do we say? We don't really want to answer his question because that would open up a chat with a stranger that we don't want, as well as lead him on. But I realise he's just trying to make conversation so it seems a bit attitudey to say 'thanks but no thanks' when he hasn't actually made an offer. If we have to reply to every message, that means we have to rely to all messages saying 'how are you?' 'What you up to?' Then we would be forced into a conversation we never wanted. We don't use Fab chatting, we simply don't enjoy chatting to random guys on Fab. Surely that should be respected?

Our profile clearly states what we're looking for so why would we bother replying to anyone who doesn't match? It happens a hell of a lot and all it says to us is that they didn't bother to read it in which case we reserve the right not to bother replying to them. We'd never dream of contacting anyone unless we'd read their profile first and felt we'd be a good match. It's really not much to ask is it.

The trouble is that some guys here think all they need to do is mailshot a one liner with cock shots to loads of females/cples and they'll soon be begging them for attention. When they get no replies and realise it doesn't work they get all shirty. Not all guys are like that thankfully and they'll be the ones who carefully select who they approach and actually get to meet other people. Simples.

Exactly! My profile is to the point and I have filter on messages to reduce the amount of messages I may get that are of no interest to me. If I message first, I put though and effort plus a pic. I certainly am not offended if my message gets deleted without reply and yes, it has happened

Possibly. Or more likely they just can't be arsed responding to everyone who sends them messages and choose to spend their fab admin time answering the messages they want to. Call it time management. Or laziness (in my case when my filters are open it's a bit of both). Either way, it makes my time on here stress free and doesn't have anything to do with my olfactory considerations of poo odour.

"Manners cost nothing. "

True but that goes both ways.

Replying to dozens of speculative and pointless messages (or pm's in chat) every week costs time. Then you still have to deal with the comeback from those who get all stroppy and post on here whining about being rejected. Of course those who reckon all couples are 'up themselves' never consider that their own assumptions and lack of effort may be largely to blame for the response they get...

Yes they do, manners cost time, often a considerable amount of time. So as with all areas of ettiquette there must be a sense of reasonability as to how much time is realistic to be spent in the name of manners.

Ok.. perfect example

I had three messages from the same guy today one said “you so fit”

All similar messages, I read them and ignored them as I was busy and much more interested in messages that had something that caught my attention with face pics attached.

Now the guy messages again “rude” is the only word. So I replied “why?” He replies “ you always ignore”

This guy has nothing to say, lives over 60 miles away, has nothing on his profile, no photo attached, clearly hasn’t bothered to read my profile yet wants me to respond to “ you so fit”

No... if that makes me rude so be it, I have enough to do in my real life without spending half the day replying to 100s messages from guys who are too rude to read my profile ... hmmmph

Agree. I think it's rude for someone to send a total stranger a message saying 'you so fit' without the courtesy of introducing himself, or reading the profile as to whether such a message would be welcomed. The men who have decided that it's bad manners to ignore messages don't seem to consider that manners goes both way.
