RE: Your opinion here/ Make CS grrrrrreat ;)

CS is a very small community - there aren't many members who post regularly. It would be nice to see more members from different countries. CS is now some cozy coffee shop where you come regularly for a coffee and a chat, if you like the place and people (or at least some/most of them), until you get bored and find another place or something different that will occupy your time. It would be nice if it could become something bigger - a restaurant, maybe? More people mean more dynamic discussions and - more opportunity to meet someone (after all - this supposed to be a dating site).

I also think that people should have a profile photo. I know that some people like to stay anonymous, but it's simply different to talk to someone 'with a face' and without it. It will also stop people wondering whether someone is a fake profile or if someone uses several profiles to post, etc. There are many forums all over the internet that allow avatars and I think that CS should also - either allow avatars or make the 'profile photo required' rule. It doesn't have to be some 'special photo' - any photo would do. I know that it's much more relaxing to post without a photo or with an avatar and - at first - it was weird for me too - to post using a personal photo, but then - you simply get used to it. It's not that scary.

RE: What's the difference between the forums and the blogs on CS?

I think that one has more control over their blogs than threads. You can delete the blog or even some posts on the blog (I think). You can also disable comments, making it a sort of a diary. On forums you can only hide comments or ban someone from your thread, but you have no control over your thread. You cannot close it or delete it.

I think that people tend to be more serious on blogs. It's easier to discuss any serious topic there. Forums are much more dynamic, with more controversial and funny threads. People talk more openly on forums, they are less polite, more direct, but also - I would say - less vain. Nobody cares whether their threads are 'popular', have a dozen or hundreds of posts, who posted and what was posted - as long as the discussion is going on. Blogs are much smaller community and people are more sensitive to 'popularity' and interpersonal relationships.

In general, I think that CS community is not that large - at least people who more or less regularly post on forums and blogs - and very soon get to know each other. It would be nice if CS would have more members from various countries. It would be much more interesting. I think that - due to CS being a small community - people get bored easily - both on blogs and forums.

RE: Say Anything

After giving it some thought... Maybe political discussions and blogs should exist, after all.

People interested in politics are also lonely and they can meet other people with similar interests on such blogs and discussions.

Maybe they even find their soulmate there.

RE: Share What You Are Listening To -- Part XX

When I give my heart again
I know it's gonna last forever

RE: Are you afraid of being hurt again?

That is true. We can find love in the most unexpected places.



I want something to last.
For me, the hardest thing is when you start to feel that you are growing apart, that the feelings fade away and you cannot do anything about it.
I want a never-ending story.

I envy people who go from one relationship into another, from one date into another, like strolling through the park - now picking up this flower and enjoying its smell, now listening to that bird's song, now resting under that tree, but their journey never ends and they don't want it to end. Just travelling from one person to another. What lucky, lucky people!

RE: Say Anything

''The politicians'' strike back.

This is the situation on the blogs again.

I thought we managed to chase them away, but they came back even stronger than before.

Resistance is futile.

RE: Introvert & Extrovert

I always got ENFJ on MBTI Personality Test, but I've been seriously started to think that - maybe - I'm turning into INFJ lately.

So, I took the test again today and - I'm still ENFJ, but it seems that I'm more an ambivert (extraverted 53% introverted 47%). I've never paid attention to that before, so I suppose that is the reason why I sometimes feel more like an introvert than like an extrovert...

RE: Are you afraid of being hurt again?

Hmmm...

Aren't people usually uninterested in receiving unwanted/unsought love? Or you don't mean - romantic love, but love in general, love given from one human being to another?

RE: Question of the century! When was the last time Mercedes_00 had shoulder length hair?

Thanks, Deedee.

I wish your hair to grow very long very fast!

RE: Question of the century! When was the last time Mercedes_00 had shoulder length hair?

@Mercedes_00

Thank you and you are welcome.

You are right - I think that hair coloring is very bad for hair. It's very nice of you to donate your hair.

RE: Share What You Are Listening To -- Part XX

RE: Random Thoughts

Unfortunately not.

RE: Do you like darken you're skin from the sun...?

I never sunbathe.

RE: Question of the century! When was the last time Mercedes_00 had shoulder length hair?

Probably never?

I LOVE, LOVE long hair.

My hear was around the waist until a few years ago when I started dyeing it. Then it became too weak, so I had to cut it and it's now like here on my photo - around the middle of my back. It was a difficult decision for me, since I had long hair all my life. But, I got used to it.

Your hair is beautiful, Mercedes.

All of the things I once held precious
Just don't mean anything anymore

RE: Who sends and receives the most initial approach messages ...

I don't send initial messages. I've recently sent a link to one blog to the person I had chatted here on the forums on one thread - simply because I knew it would interest him. Otherwise, I think that men are not shy creatures and that they know what they want, so if they don't contact me initially - that means that they are not interested in me. I see no point in messaging them first.

I used to receive many messages on my previous profile - I had a more detailed profile and different photos - but - like everyone else - mostly from fake profiles. I would receive a message from a real person once in a while, but rarely we had something in common or wanted the same things. Or we were simply - too far away.

I've got a little tired of messaging lately, so I blocked almost everyone - left only several destinations and narrow age group. My Inbox is peaceful and quiet at the moment.

RE: Language

Better to type in English for free.

RE: Language

From some reason, one cannot use other alphabets on CS. They always appear as ?????? . Maybe because the site is old so it does not support other languages...

I tried to type a message in Japanese once and it also turned out like: ?????? So does the Cyrillic alphabet, apparently.

RE: What ya got on the go.....SAY ANYTHING

Political discussions should be banned from CS. They only disturb people and don't contribute to developing love and romance.

RE: Language

My native language is Serbian (and, of course, I understand Croatian, Bosnian and Montenegrin). I speak English, although still make plenty of mistakes, especially when I type/talk fast. I speak Japanese, but I'm far from proficient. I'm learning German at the moment.

I use English every day. Japanese changed my perspective of the world.

I think that speaking foreign languages allows you to meet people from different cultures and to learn about different values, so that you can reevaluate the ones you adopted in your own culture.

Thank you for the video and all your help so far.

May the force be with you, too, and - live long and prosper!

STAR WARS - Watching Order

Scary.

RE: What ya got on the go.....SAY ANYTHING

I'm so tired of this winter.

I need a lot of daylight for painting.

And there's no daylight.

Just dark gloomy days.

RE: Share What You Are Listening To -- Part XX

And what have I learned
From all this pain
I thought I'd never feel the same
About anyone
Or anything again

But now I know
When you find your love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights

When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there's no hope in sight

STAR WARS - Watching Order

I watched it. Thanks!
