Template messages ....

February 20 2015

Do you write and use them?How do you use them? By this I mean - Do you read the peoples profiles before sending them a messages?What if you receive a reply to your standard template and then read their profile only to find you aren't interested in meeting that person? Do you then ignore them or go and meet anyway? My profile is basic and I have removed my descriptions but still receive very obvious template messages telling me how they love my pics and that I am a sexy beautiful woman, and I sound amazing, etc. I just think "really" they must be psychic to know how amazing I am ... LOL It leads me to believe that many guys don't read profiles and don't really care who they message. One guy told me he just sends them out and isn't too fussy about who to. His theory is "if I gets lucky it worked and who cares, I got what I wanted". So I'm interested in finding out the rational behind template messages. I've never used templates. How many customize messages to suit each person they contact? LG ps. I am only referring to messages and not flirts

    When I was on here with the Mr P we only ever used templates as a negative reply :-). And we only ever had one template. . It worked perfectly that it didn't offend anyone but did acknowledge their approach and our response. . I use the templates for the forums mostly these days. They work pretty much the same as the forums for formatting. So, I can copy and paste from the internet (for eg), save it as a template to see how it would appear, and if I need to, edit it, 'saving' as I go till it's just the way I like it. :-) . Other than that, they're useful to save posts when I don't have time to finish them. Or if I want to take time to think before I post.

    Never used a template. Just as easy to type in something and much more personal than a template. When I had a paid RHP account I much preferred to be very selective in who I messaged and then was careful to write it to the person I thought they were. Seldom did I not get a response. You only really get one chance messaging someone, why waste it with a template message that could not possible be personal. Its not that hard to write a message and if you want to befriend someone it would be best that you wanted to spend some time communicating.

    Always, I think it's very disrespectful not to. Template messages (I get them daily) are an instant no for me. Sure, if the writer copies and pastes the part about himself, fine. But not mentioning a single thing from my profile (or commenting on things not even it, like saying my naked pics are hot) is not cool in my opinion.

    I have a need to send a message then I just don't... By need I mean if someone's forum contribution spark an interest then I send only that....if the conversation continues then great....but mostly it doesn't continue past a polite thanks....as I find most of the profiles I view all list interests that I have no experience in therefore I don't see need in offering an experience to someone that would be substandard to which they seek.... So my messages cannot really be template messages due to the intention behind them.... - Posted from rhpmobile

    I always read a profile before sending a flirt or message, it's polite and I wish blokes contacting me would do the same. If a bloke hasn't bothered to read my profile and just sent me one of those standard cut and paste messages, I'll decline with an RHP no template. If they've actually gone through and read it but they're not what I'm after? I'll type it out personally. - Posted from rhpmobile

    It goes like this. Hotters you have two and my cum would look great on them. My template reply is sure do you you have a ute? If not I will be under the bridge in the bushes at nine tonight. Make a noise like an owl and I will hoot back.

    and I received a message from a guy over there talking about how he's looking for affection and connection and something long-term and I look like I could be the right girl.... I messaged back "Dude, I'm in town for 5 days!" His response was that it was his template message he sends to all the women he likes. Charmer huh?

    Quoting 'Keepitsimple72' and I received a message from a guy over there talking about how he's looking for affection and connection and something long-term and I look like I could be the right girl.... I messaged back "Dude, I'm in town for 5 days!" His response was that it was his template message he sends to all the women he likes. Charmer huh? Similar thing .... when I point out that the only thing my profile states is I'm only here for the forums at the moment... I get the ...ooops reply ... LG

    and always read the profile first, so rude not to do so. The interest sparked from reading someone's profile is the reason to send a message. I believe RHP should only allow the template messages to be used when replying as a Template message = spam, I mean how hard is it to write a message? in my opinion... getting a reply to a message is gold, even if it is a polite decline.
