Honestly, "Hi. How's your night going?" still sounds like kind of a pickup coming from some random guy that said woman doesn't know. If you want to get to know a woman on a forum, post in sections she tends to visit. That's the best way to get her attention. I don't mean stalking her or anything. Just contribute to the topics and have fun with it. After you gain her respect, I'd say a PM like that will probably get a much more positive response.![]()
So much awesome in this post.
Seriously, I get a lot of bullshit pm's. Tonight there was one asking if I had daddy/daughter fantasies and did I want to chat. I ignored it. But I get ones that are just "how's your night going" and my reaction is exactly like infinity706 describes. If I don't know somebody - more often than not have never seen the name - then I ignore it. For one thing, they obviously know nothing about me, because they're trying to hook up with a married lesbian. For another...I'm just not interested in chatting. Period. I talk on the boards here. I shouldn't have to put "no cyber please" in my signature. People should have a little respect and get to know me before contacting me privately.
Keep them coming everyone.
