Profiles that Reflect the Person vs Profiles with No Write Up

June 02 2018

I joined in a time 100 characters was the minimum expected in the 'About Me' section of the profile and though I'm not looking onsite any more, I still put effort into my profile to keep it relevant and of some interest to people who drop in to check it out. A well written profile is a joy to read, I'm not talking grammar and spelling but one that gives a good idea of who the person behind it is. But now there are profiles with no write up at all. What? Why? Does anyone message, flirt or reply to profiles that have no write up? Is this a deal breaker for you? Would you prefer a blank profile to one with poor grammar and/or spelling? Assuming you have a profile that reflects the person you are... Are you happy with your profile in general? Does it work for you? Peachy

    But I think it accurately states what I am about and what I am looking for. I do not interact with profiles that haven't put any effort in. Laziness is not an attribute I find appealing, so yes, it's a deal breaker for me.

    My profile is very explicit because I know exactly what I’m looking for. I’m also not going to appeal to many people and I’m fine with that. I enjoy expressing my thoughts and feelings through writing so a profile is easy for me to write. I do worry about it becoming overly negative, but sometimes the things people dislike tell you more about them than what they like. I’m also happy to update my profile regularly. I used to be very passionate about good grammar, spelling and punctuation. I’m less judgemental now .... as long as I can see the guy has made an effort to articulate his attributes and desires then I’m fine with that. So to answer your question ..... a blank profile is not appealing to me at all! I’m all about the intrigue, anticipation and seduction!

    that while I won't instantly discount a blank profile, it certainly will need to have some other factor that grabs my attention. On the other side, my profile is quite long (sometimes I think too long) but I feel it accurately paints a picture of myself and what I am hoping to find. Do others read it? Sometimes.

    Someone made mention of how some profiles contain no info at all and was confused as to how to message them..... For me the answer is simple...I don’t... And really why would anyone unless they’re merely messaging the masses in an attempt that 1 profile will reply?? It’s entirely different breaking the ice offline as you have an environment in order to provide a context and compass for your approach....but messaging must engage the reader, therefore in order to be engaging, there must be SOME information about them on it in order to give you something to comment on...else you’re going to message away with a speel about what?? Yourself....what you want, and that for some I guess is their way, but aren’t the profiles that already are like that enough?? Or you’ll just message something boring and uninviting like “hi” or “hey”. May as well just send a dick pic and say “eat this...you know you wanna!!” - Posted from rhpmobile

    But I think the way some people work on here is basically have a juicy profile pic, just send out blanket messages or flirts every day to however many people, and see if they get any flirts or messages back. About the only time anything in-depth is discussed is probably after that, and even then probably only along the times of organizing a time to hook up. They are probably the ''any port in a storm'' types.

    Mine's a bit outdated but you more or less get a genuine impression of me and what I want. I'm not sure it really helps but it gives me some peace of mind I've done my part. Though much as I've tried I haven't been able to string together a short set of words that describes me well without being pretentious or weird. I find online dating fun for a perve but ultimately tiresome. I don't like getting to know people on RHP because I don't have a good context and it's harder to judge their character. So if they give me even a glimpse of anything other than generic templates I am grateful. For the few who know me I'm a very trusting, adventurous and open person. But until I get to know someone well offline everyone (male) is a potential danger. - Posted from rhpmobile

    Hi Peachy, I so totally agree. There are so many profiles with nothing/generic answers/badly written or basically sfa ..Definitely a deal breaker for me, it doesn't matter how nice the bod is, if he is strong like ox, smart like tractor, we just aren't going to get along.

    Some of you will mention your profile is up to date or a bit old. I'm just too lazy to give a toss to change mine. I'm also not seeking anything significant st this stage in my life. I've been here a few years now and have learnt not to judge poorly written profiles. I have also learnt profiles in depth bore the shit out of me. (Thats just me) Peoples circumstances, needs, wants and desires are forever changing/evolving. So personally I don't think profiles can be taken too seriously. Besides MOST leave out the fine print. 😁 Happy Sunday. - Posted from rhpmobile

    I think, a lots of blokes leaves it empty because the failure not able to connect with anyone. I mean i used to have personalized profile, but didn't get the traction. I've changed it and waited if makes any differences but no. I've only sparked intrest within the group of ppl I am not interested. So, when i left it empty I had a lot more succes!!! That's my experience only, it might be differ for others. - Posted from rhpmobile

    The first and only time I took home someone from a bar was when I was travelling and needed someone to satisfy my mood after weeks on my own. It was also the first and only time where I stopped halfway and left because it was THAT BAD. I think all I said was "I have to go now" 😅 Otherwise, my judgment has been pretty good. - Posted from rhpmobile

    People are lazy in the sack coz they cant string two sentences or in their for said same reason. Well fuck me dear perfects who are capable stringing two sentences together. You must be great in the sack and have the most together lives. 😝😝 C'mon Two and Meander? Never expected either of you two to pass such a judgement. Carry on tho. - Posted from rhpmobile

    I think they mean about making the effort.Not about whether someone can spell real good.

    I have a long profile. It doesn't work but that's probably because I have a head like a dropped pie and other factors, but most people only look at profiles once they've got past the visual stage anyhow.

    And ive messaged many people that im not interested in meeting, just to say i enjoyed their profile I'm not happy with my own I struggle to talk about myself, to find the words to describe my desires and aspirations I feel like a pretentious tool or a bad salesman every time i try to write about my self Most people that actually look at it say its ok A blank profile isn't a turn off if the pics tell the story - Posted from rhpmobile

    I don't get why anyone would bother having a profile that is completely blank and can't imagine anyone would want to contact it unless they was blanket mailing. What about the guests Okey? and How does one manage to make a blank profile anyway? Ever curious Peachy

    I read that too. Nothing was mentioned about ummmm spelling. 😛 At the end of the DAY, it all depends on what you are seeking. If you are clearly seeking MORE than a causual root then you write till your little heart is content. If you just want said casual root, tell them fuck all as you just want to be used or to use. Meander...... MAYBE it is together, yet you put to much PRESSURE on thy self. 😁😁 To sum it up. Shit profile - Just wanna root Depth profile - Want more than root Novel profile - Wanna get married 😛😛 - Posted from rhpmobile

    I guess in some cases people believe that as they're on a sex site, a picture tells a thousand words - and they probably feel that writing a chunk about who they are is pointless when they basically just want to get their fuck on so to speak. Whereas some people probably want a more cerebral connection and thus describe themselves more so they can find someone who they're compatible with. Of course it could be as simple as some people may struggle with describing themselves - us wordy folks tend to take our talents for granted.

    Inspirit, I could have had a way better heading for the thread to make it clear it was effort vs blank on profiles I was going on about. I've been really pleased with how it's gone. Peachy, no confusion intended xo Profiles that Reflect the Person vs Profiles with No Write Up

    Does it really really matter. However.... You just can't make an informed decision or judgement about a person based on their profile. That would be like thinking a nice big fat juicy cock will go ok. Trust me they don't. Some profiles are utter shit. Yet the person is awesome and some well written profiles are great, yet the person is a tool. *still laffin at shit cunts. - Posted from rhpmobile

Yet the person is awesome and some well written profiles are great, yet the person is a tool. *still laffin at shit cunts. It's conversation, I like hearing other people's thoughts, and I'm glad for yours. :-) For the sake of it, because I have been seeing so many completely blank profiles without so much as a fantasy blurb at the bottom... I thought to compare them to a well written profile (description from OP below), which I absolutely agree not everyone is capable of writing, and some are too damn good... It seemed well rounded to get people's thoughts on those extremes, and their thoughts about whether their efforts at a 'well written' profile paid off'. It's an Xtreme judging the book by it's cover topic... which includes having a look at our own covers. Peachy, has a complicated mind but Iyam what Iyam. A well written profile is a joy to read, I'm not talking grammar and spelling but one that gives a good idea of who the person behind it is.

    You may find blank profiles belong to guests too. Hence opportunists looking for said root on the cheap. I know I was when I was a guest. Now me member with shit profile. Go figure. 😁😁😁 - Posted from rhpmobile

    I’ve found that me having an accurate detailed profile, that genuinely provides a reader with an idea of who I am as a person, allows others to self-select. Rather than me talking to everyone, investing hours and days with someone only to discover that we’re not at all on the same page at all, I can instead focus all that effort on getting to know the people who have self-selected as being compatible with me. For others, it helps me assess my compatibility in many different areas (culture, education, class, preference, political, humour, deviance) with them, gives me fuel for starting a conversation and flirting, - Posted from rhpmobile
