This is good basic advise for anyone writing any type of profile or introductory message for any site.

I also suggest use of proper capitalization as opposed to using lowercase and uppercase to denote a lifestyle orientation. While this may be a kink fad, the use of lowercase and uppercase designations makes for difficult reading and often conveys someone who lives their kink life mostly online.

Many other things help make a profile easier to read and comprehend. Constant overuse…..and prolific use…of those dots dots dots to replace common punctuation ….very annoying. While these are often used in IM’s…and general posts….sprinkling them too liberally in a profile…instead of using periods, commas, colons, semi-colons etc…or starting a new paragraph…..well, you get the point?

One other note of importance: be aware of commonly misspelled words and typos in your own profiles. ALWAYS use spellcheck before posting a profile! These are misspellings I just now found in one profile:
Realise = realize
Demondstrate = demonstrate
Amoung = among
accomodated = Accommodated
baords = boards
ignornance = ignorance

FYI
Any photo taken by a professional. even if you have bought the pictures/negatives and disk are copyrighted and still legally owned by the photographer and cannot be used or copied here or anywhere else without the written permission/release from the photographer. The only pictures you can copy with ease are those you have taken yourself.

Maybe when I get that kind of response, I should ask them to bark like a dog, scratch like a monkey and hop on one leg? LOL.

Oops, did that turn into a rant???

I get a suprissing amount of questions about some areas of my spelling both here and on other sites so I'll reiterate it again...

I live in Australia thus my spell check is set to either Australian English or British English (dependent which spell checker I'm using. Simple folks and it goes like this.

Aussies speak Australian

Kiwis speak New Zealand

Canadians speak Canadian

British folk speak English

US folk speak American

All is a form of English most with differences in spelling the load stone of the language is the Queens English used in the UK.

Q.E.D.
