I agree AND all lowercase or caps...

Yeah. If it's one long run-on sentence, I'm going to skip over it. Or if it's one huge paragraph, I'll skip over it.

Exactly. If I didn't know better, some people weren't aware that their capslock button was on or something.

Some people are just clueless.

yep I look at interest, physical appearence and lifestyle. Kinda scan the what they have to say for keywords. Your gonna have questions thats the awkwardly fun part of it. so keep is short.

For those who like short profiles, how short are you talking about?

I used to have an old profile that said I like to sneak up on people taking long walks on the beach and shove them into the water.

My profile looks long but that's only cause of my 2 joke lists on it.

Cliches are my biggest pet peeve, that and simple lists (makes me feel like I'm reading a resume). I find random usage of majiscule and miniscule lettering to be worse than all miniscule. sTUfF LIkE tHIs. I think kidnappers use lettering like that in ransom notes, I call it linguistic vomit cause reading it makes me nauseous.


More cliches:
I like having fun....wooo, you haven't described yourself at all, you've just defined the word fun (things you enjoy). If you enjoy punching yourself in the groin repeatedly...well, then you'd consider that fun even though most of us wouldn't.

I'm the guy your parents warned you about. My parents would warn my sister about rapists and serial sex offenders...so that's you huh?

I want to find someone honest....if I were a liar how do you think I'd answer this questions, genius?

no limit just say what is important and try not to ramble. That is where I get lost.

Every time I read a profile thread I second guess my own.....

I get about double the profile views when I use my foot or tattoo picture compared to my face. That's pretty embarrassing and funny at the same time! But it is proof that the picture is what draws people in.

Even funnier was when I made private every photo except my foot and ankle and got emails like "you sure don't look like a big girl to me". WTH?

I kind of like them on the longer side.....'cause I like to ramble about life, and usually if theirs are long, they do too.

What's important, though?

Something important to one person isn't going to be important to the next.

You do have pretty toes..

Thanks!

Yep and if they don't have the patience to read my profile then they certainly won't have the patience for me...

Oh No ...lol I feel like I'm in class..just kidding. what ever is importatnt to you. Say you like to bowl for instance. just say I like to bowl, and not discribe in detail about your average, and the way you love to see your kids bowl granny style.. that is more for the later conversations. but that is just my opinion, not trying to start any controversy.

Even if people don't like my profile I won't second guess it. I had an ex read my profile, she actually shared it with a female coworker. The coworker said maybe I wouldn't get many replies but my ex said that if someone didn't get my humor then she just wouldn't be my type. Better to find out sooner than later.

Yep! My profile isn't that long, yet guys constantly say they've read part of it.. or it was too long to read.

While we're on the subject of profiles, I have a question. How many of you have ever asked to be rated under the Rate my profile board? I've never done that. Namely because I could not care less what anyone ever thought. I think long or short we all have them the way we want them.

cheers mate also this dateing game is hard enough,and its not the same as speaking too someone& getting 2 know that person face 2 face"its hard chatting 2 a computer screen "and all the good looking ladys so far"seem 2 live in the states",dont get me wrong its not about looks,its whats inside that counts..and i can sit down and write any old rubbish,but i am just a normal GUY"a bit crazy sometimes,in a good way so if you do wish 2 know more just ask......

I have to agree...X gets the square.


Like I said I kinda scan it and look for red flags and keywords.
