One that bothers me is when you look at the av they are using and it's a female. Even worse if it's an open hole on a female. (This is when I'm looking at males.) I'm like HUH?
WTF?
Is this supposed to entice me? Is this supposed to be advertising? WTF!?!

I hate it when there is no effort at spelling. I have no issues with people not being the greatest of spellers, but if there is NO effort at all, it just screams lazy and I didn't try real hard on this profile.
And av's of private parts, male or female, are an instant 'NEXT'. Yuck.

Good ones.
Yes, if a potential PYL posts his/her private parts that's a total turn off for me. It makes me question how serious they are about relationships, life, D/s.
Another one is when they post a picture with a gun. WTF? I love guns but that's not a turn on at all.

Eh. If they are obviously posing then I just think they're trying too hard. It it's just a good picture of them, taken during hunting or something, I think it's a good picture that also shows an aspect of them; they like hunting.

Ooh. *shivers*
Um, but one question. "Big mail chickon" is usually called a rooster, isn't it? I'm confused. Did he come with the "ritches?"
(That was a great summary!)
I'm not really sure about turn on/offs though. I don't think I pay that much attention, but I do think I can agree that a close-up pic of someone's junk is probably going to make me take that post a little less seriously because I'm usually busy giggling. (Just sayin'.) Rampant spelling issues makes me scroll to the next post (usually
) because I'm typically too lazy to try to interpret.

Lol I love this thread Fury!
I'm glad to know I'm not the only one...I browse the personals but I'm not looking. I guess I just like to see who is out there and what they are looking for. Maybe to give me some hope for the future!
I can cope with some spelling mistakes, but my pet hate is the misuse of there, their and they're. I'd feel the need to point out and that wouldnt work!
I agree you with the car thing. Its like online dating sites when someone has apic taken with their car. wtf. Who cares. It's not your car I'd be having a relationship with.
Also not into them typing in capitals to illustrate their PYL status or overtly Dom names like BADASSMASTER.

Turn off:
- dick pics: I came across only one dick pic that did not turn me off to the person. A whole body shot including the package, does not necessarily bother me though.
- walloftextwithoutpuntiationsorparagraphs & l33t speak & too many " .... ": why should I bother with the pain???
- expecting obedience right away: nothing against you trying to order me around. just do not be an ass if I do not obey.
- female genitals as their AV: no comment.
Not necessarily a turn but something that could be an ice-breaker:
- cars, guns, other items representing one of their hobby/passions: they give extra info on the person and although they can be something I do not care about, I can see the value of giving that piece of info.
Turns on:
- manners and witty words.

To me, a cock avatar, especially a close-up of one's erection, just screams out "I have nothing to offer, but I'm hoping some girl will find this pic sexy and engage me in some sort of sex chat".
I like intelligence. Well thought out profiles are obviously a plus. A profile picture doesn't hurt.
A sig pic that's all glittery might make me want to stab myself in the eyes, which isn't generally a positive.

I tried rubbing sand paper over my corneas to make that more clear, but it didn't work. When I read "minntl tots" I kept thinking of big-brained toddlers.
How great (or terrible) is it that those two posts summed up most of the personal ads I've seen? This thread should be cross-linked to the Personals forum.

I guess I should be glad that spelling the words in those two posts was very difficult. It took a lot of thought. I even had visions of it coming back ta haunt my potz in da future.I tried rubbing sand paper over my corneas to make that more clear, but it didn't work.

~Overly sexual pictures
~Bad spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc.
~"I'm a sub, but I could do the dom thing if a woman wanted me to," or vice versa
~Focusing only on his/her fetishes
~Negativity ("Everybody here is fake" or "I'm not interested in xyz, so DON'T ASK!!!!111!!!1!!1!" etc.)
~The ones who go through a new partner or partners every other week
~Revealing physical ailments or mental disorders in the text of the profile
I could go on and on.
