WHY REPLY WITHOUT LOOKING AT MY PROFILE (103)
70Libra: I've not read the whole thread, but here's my tuppence worth...
It's got to do with the 'Who Viewed Me' feature.
If a member has their WVM turned off, they will not only know who viewed them, but, they will not show up on YOUR WVM either. They can view your profile and stay anonymous.

Another thing... men will only show up on the WVM of profiles that are "seeking men" and women will only show up on the WVM of profiles that are "seeking women".
Glad I could help

JameelK: I was just wondering what everyone else thinks about people that dont even look at your profile.
I mean you take your time looking at someones profile and sending a message and you get a message back saying, i like your profile too and then asking questions that are answered on your profile. Do people actually not know you can see whos veiwed your profile? Well i've deceided to file people like that under Scammers! and not answer..
what does everyone else think?

No, not always scammers. I rarely respond to men who write or flower me (because I´ve decided that online dating is not for me), unless I know them from the forums. However, if I have the time, and the message is polite, I thank the sender for taking the time to message me and wish them luck in their search here, without looking at their profile.

rohaan: No, but I didn't call him names--he was the one who did that. Hey--just answering your question. Is that all right? (I didn't want a 'pissing match'. He posted a thread; I had some questions. What is wrong with that?)
Hey Ro!!

Hey guess what!! I just got an e-mail from somebody I've never heard from, just out of the blue, you know. Well.......to be perfectly honest, I haven't decided to respond or not. Now...in all honesty, to self and you guys out there...everything I've said would point toward it being only the proper thing to at least give a nod of some kind back. So..I find myself at a crossroads of being true to my own beliefs. And, to tell you the truth, something about the situation makes me hesitate to write back at all. I have to then agree with those of you who think that it isn't always necessary to respond to a communication. There's something to be learned in all this, that is at least true. Opinions? Really, I'd like responses, but could you all be civil, no name calling, no bashing? Fair enough?------ This thread is Archived ------

Ro, Honestly, there is no right or wrong approach. We are the pioneer gen out there defining online dating. Really, we are creating it as we go.
Myself, I dont respond if there is no interest on my part. Ive learned this lesson the hard way. There was a time when I would make the effort to write back... even if just a polite no thank-you. What a mistake that turned out to be! A lot of men took this as false hope. I would get hounded for an explanation or even worse, reponded too with abusive behavior. It actually got kinda overwhelming.
Now I know, If Im not interested, I dont respond. It saves time and feelings for both parties. All's fair in love and Im enjoying peace and my time here.

The answer is pretty simple. When someone reads your letter there is a part of your profile visible on the screen and there is also a button to open the entire profile.
Maybe they have read the visible part but not opened the profile for more in-depth study.
To me, I consider any response at all to be a nice gesture (unless it is intentionally rude).
At least the person took the time to respond.
I don't think we can criticize them for not doing their homework of studying our profile thoroughly.

cynicalorange: Nope. I've just checked on someone's who's written more than I've done on mine.
I can read ALL of their About me, and What they're looking for, without having to leave the 'reply to mail' page

That depends on how much they wrote.
If they wrote more than a short paragraph it will be cut off.

Guess I need to upgrade my version of CS to the one you have!
Unless they've written less than a paragraph or two, I always get a partial profile listed on the right side, with a "read more" link.

myfisrt: And in my experience, most scammers do not remember what they have written on their own profile..
It's because they haven't learned to memorize anything beyond cut and paste!

Or maybe their English level is so bad they can't read what their friend wrote into their profile.
