Welllllllllllll I hope that some of you dont take this the worng way. But I will click on a profile as a short cut to get to my messages to avoid having to come back to the room the long way. [:o]


[:)]  Click away, Dnomyar... I don't mind and I don't take it the wrong way.

There is a function to "hide" one's profile on this site, and it will maintain one's information for at least a year, including photos.  when i am involved with someone, in order to minimise distractions, my profile goes inactive, but still allows access to the message boards. 



DesFIP -> RE: Reading profiles... (4/25/2008 8:56:09 AM)

Well, the people who don't post might well wonder why they're being viewed. Except if they put up a lot of pictures they should expect to be perved.

But although I'm off the market, I don't bother to hide my profile. I figure people might want to know a little more about the person behind the posts. I think most posters have looked to find out things about other posters, so we don't get so het up about it.

But if someone has nothing better to do than watch obsessively to see if they're being viewed and then whine about it, they ought to get a life.



prdslave -> RE: Reading profiles... (4/25/2008 8:57:58 AM)

i dunno...i guess im like a kid, sorta.  I see the lil red letters 'who's viewing me' and then get all click happy and go see who they are.

But thats just me :)

I do that, too. Just being friendly. I also like to check out posters profiles because I'm pretty new to the boards and am trying to get acquainted. Looking at the profiles helps me to remember them.

I recently had a guy write me asking to serve (and it was obviously a form letter), when my profile clearly states I'm not looking for anything or anyone. I was a little irritated that day because his wasn't the only one like this I received that day. So I wrote back to him telling him he should at least read the profile first before writing. He never even showed up as having viewed me. I got back a nasty, insulting email. I blocked him and got over it.

To me a profile is a public introduction. Those who have a problem with others viewing them should get over themselves already. To anyone who's profile I've perved, Hi!, I was just browsing. Nice to meet you.

And what about just wanting to know the person you're reading here?  Sometimes I view profiles because of some comment the person posted.  Sometimes I agree, sometimes not...sometimes I find the post fascinating and want to know more about the writer; sometimes I just want to see if they are as big a yahoo as their post insinuates.  LOL
 
This is a 'dating site'...and as most do, it comes with a message board and chatting function so people can get acquainted.  How odd to join such a club and then complain about it’s purpose.  Sheeshhhhhhhhh
 
Now...e-mail is another thing, entirely; it makes me wonder when a 25-year old cross-dressing, married-guy sends me mail.  Still, unless it's exceptional I just don't respond.  Exceptional = in either a good or a bad way.  [:D]

Viewing a profile is like hanging your [sm=laundry.gif] out to dry on the line - if people can see it - they will look at it!
 
I don't mind if/when someone views my profile <shrug>. I mean really, in the scheme of things, how much bother is it really?
 
As others have said, someone who does not wish to have their profile viewed can make it so they do not receive unwanted attention (whatever kind it maybe). Or they could just not check the "who's viewing me" section. The viewer's curiosity is satisfied and they can remain stress/irritation free. A 'win-win'. [;)]
 
Sometimes viewing profiles can result in new friendships or a happy circustance.  A Dominant who viewed my profile turned out to be a friend of one of my best friends ... interesting how things happen, no?

I choose to be flattered when someone views my profile. Even if I were in a relationship with someone, I would still be flattered. If there's just a viewing with no message, I figure it's either someone wanting to know more about me as a poster or someone who just came across me while searching or scrolling. That's what I'm here for after all.

I did see one Dom had perved me; I perved him back. He wrote me: "See anything you like? Why did you look at my profile?" After scratching my head in puzzlement, I answered, "You looked at mine, so I looked at yours." What? A sub can't look at a Dom, now? Well, as the English say, "A cat may look at a Queen.

This reminds me of slaves who have a rule against speaking to anyone at a public dungeon or munch, and then the Master comes up to you and gives you heck for speaking to them!
I have no problem with any rule you make for your slave, but the rule is for your slave, not for the rest of the world. Unless there is a publicly agreed on symbol, how are you supposed to know? (in the dungeon near here, the rules specify that a bottom holding their lead in their mouth is not free to speak with anyone, so that owners will have a way of signaling that.)
I look at all kinds of profiles. I often write people. If their profile says to write and ask for permission, because it asks me to, even though i am another submissive woman, just looking for conversation.
I have never blocked anyone, and i answer all email, although, yes, someone could get rude enough, i guess, for me to block them. a few have gotten annoying enough for me to write them back 'WTF?' i have more than one who likes to write me a one line complement. One of them writes, 'Dammmmmmn, you are Finnnne'. every couple of months he writes that to me. And I write back, 'Thank you for the complement. Masters nick is on my profile.' Not that I expect him to write Master - he does not seem to have that much to say. But why does he write me over and over, with the same exact line? I finally wrote him and asked him if he had that on macro or something. [:-]
