Online Dating for people who aren't good writers ( Archived) (84)

Nidifugous: Should people who are on the warpath with orthography do the online dating thing?

Wouldn't they be better off doing another form of dating? (i.e. whatsapp or similar). Doesn't a place like CS put them at a huge disadvantage? It's a competitive market and photo apart, what initially attracts is what a person communicates in writing.

Doesn't a guy who is good with words have an advantage with women? I'm not talking about b.s.artists, but just well-spoken, articulate (written and verbal) communicators?

What do you think? ... and how does it square with the men? I suspect men care less about how women communicate than women care about how men communicate. Maybe I'm wrong. Opinions?

Once upon a time I often and purposely nest two questions of a similar weight in a sentence,.. regularly only the last question gets answered. That's generally the point when I conclude the other side is a mong. It doesn't go very far past that.

Nidifugous: Absolutely. That's why it lends itself for discussion. Some people write the same way they speak, others don't. That's what makes this an interesting subject, imo. If we had an integrated video chat sort of like on fb where you can ask to speak on camera or voice via the site, that would be great, but we don't have it here.

I read tone into text if it's private communication. Do you?
Could you expand this thought? I am not quite sure if I get it--do you mean, as when someone "shouts" by capitalizing, or seems to be getting sarcastic, etc...?dunno

Stedan: How do you spell that phonetically? Foxtrot Oscar....


Aha! So, it is you, Stedan, who disrupted television broadcasts with your short-wave radio and that 15 feet whip aerial outside your bedroom window!

Content is more important than the format but
it is best content + good format altogether.
