So when you see a sub/slave you are interested in you send them a single line or a small paragraph?

We say something like "we like your picture and the fact that you are an artist we thought maybe we would be a good fit. The following is our long introduction letter to introduce us to you. If you are interested read on." If they are not interested then delete and block don't make it impossible for those who appreciate us from being able to correspond with us.

As brief as all the new sub/slaves profiles are this is about all we can talk about.

SR&MC



They are not making it impossible for you to correspond to others YOU are. They are not getting you mod spanked for sending out spam YOU are. You are intentionally and with forthough violating rules that YOU agreed to when you signed up for this sight. Take some personal responsibility for YOUR actions.

BTW... I have read some very enlighting profiles and journals of new submissives, not ALL are brief. Not that what they put in their profile matters after all you are the exception to their rules right? Lol

"We realize, even though you have only been here a short time you probably already have too many emails in your inbox to answer in one lifetime, the sheer volume maybe very overwhelming

In other words, you really are slapping that email out to the new users who join the site and you don't see that as spam?  You seem to be an intelligent individual, but that is the very definition of spam.  It is a mass mailing to anybody you felt like throwing the old copy/paste job at.

By the way, "from the forums" doesn't mean from your personal mail box.  The following were found in threads that were negative toward form letters:

That's only one section, btw.  (Ask A Mistress if you're curious.)  It's also pulled from the first (not only) fifty responses.  (There are less than fifty on the list because all comments that included both the word "form" and "letter" came up, even if it didn't mean "form letter".)  Every one of those comments speaks of the disdain that people have for form letters and the people who send them.  Form letters are spam and people don't want to receive it.




sirrandpolyfam -> RE: Spam Filter is activated on my mail box (9/1/2010 11:28:00 AM)

OK you state you only want friends.

We say:

"We would like to be good friends and get to know you better, at the very least, if not train you to be the very best sub/slave you can be."
Does that not answer your question about where you would fit in?

Lockit -> RE: Spam Filter is activated on my mail box (9/1/2010 11:28:28 AM)

If I were to receive an email like that, I would think that someone had a god complex, who thought most submissive's were lumps of clay that needed an addiction to submission, by god writing me a bible in my email.

He'd have to have a cock made of gold, magical powers and I would have to have a very poor image of myself if I wanted to worship it.

If one is as picky and special as all that, why would one speak to a stranger as if they were handicapped and insult them? I mean, really, if the email writer is that wonderful and they expect so much, wouldn't most intelligent life just say no? Not very effective I am sure. Are addicted submissive lumps of clay really responding?

I'm not Cali but when I see a profile or journal that catches my attention, I simply say hello and point out what about their profile or journal caught my attention. It is typically short and to the point. This is an example I have actually sent someone in the past several days " I came across your profile and when I read your journal I found the quote by Mark Twain absolutely beautiful and true. ~ DIS"




sirrandpolyfam -> RE: Spam Filter is activated on my mail box (9/1/2010 11:34:37 AM)

Unfortunately I have not been able to post the plethora of emails that we get thanking us for our very comprehensive letter so we need to post a forum about this.

If we get an equal number of responses for as against will you make the video?

Friends means FRIENDS. No training. Just friendly things that friends do. No bells and whistles or upgrades. Just the basic package.

You also seem to have neglected the rest that I wrote to you, which if I do say so myself was pretty important to something that YOU wrote.




Lockit -> RE: Spam Filter is activated on my mail box (9/1/2010 11:38:52 AM)

So all of a sudden, since you can't send out emails, there is a rush of responses to you that are better than the ones before when you stated you were having a difficult time finding a submissive?

LOL... dude...




DaddysInkedSlut -> RE: Spam Filter is activated on my mail box (9/1/2010 11:38:55 AM)

OP you seriously dont see the difference between a public post and a private email? Of course you can't post private emails from people it is againt the TOS of the forums, but knowing you probably thought you were the exception to that didnt ya?

Yep.  I send them one to three paragraphs that sum up why I'm interested and what I offer, and it's personalized.  You seem to equate the value of a letter in the sheer number of its words.  And 99% of the words are cut and paste and irrelevant to the recipient's wants or needs.  I would absolutely hate to get an email like yours and would report it.

Let me sum this up for you:

1, The site instituted a new policy against cut and paste emails.
2. You have been sending cut and paste emails and irritating recipients.
3. You are angry that you no longer will be able to send out voluminous emails and irritate.

I suggest that you take the time to read profiles and respond to things in the profiles when sending out mails.  And for God's sake, make them concise and to the point.

I never said we were having a difficult time getting submissives.

sirrandpolyfam -> RE: Spam Filter is activated on my mail box (9/1/2010 12:43:17 PM)

Not angry about not being able to send out our intro letter if that is the rule we will deal but I feel it is a very anti-dom/me protocol. So I have stated my dislike of such a onerous rule but if the community as a whole feels that is the right thing to do great.

I think this will limit activity here to the scammers and already owners and slaves but we shall see.

Quote: We have had some success over the years but as of late we are having some difficulty finding the perfect sub/slave for us.

What does this mean then?

Many people think that sending out mass emails will benefit them in their search, while others think it just sounds desperate. One would think that if what you are doing isn't working, you might think upon what you are doing wrong and how to improve your odds. The way that email reads is as if you assume they are new, know little and need your awesomeness to become something of worth, yet you expect a lot at the same time.

Your speech is condescending, egotistical and would be insulting and oxymoronic.

No, it's an anti-spam/me protocol.

sirrandpolyfam -> RE: Spam Filter is activated on my mail box (9/1/2010 12:51:19 PM)

As we have got more successful as writers our time to weed out people is rather limited also we are looking for a needle in a hay stack so to speak, the perfect slave for us.

It has been our experience with the 20 odd sub/slaves who we have trained that what we require is not the run of the mill sub/slave.

I don't think it specifically targets Dominants.  The message that I received this morning that included the little red banner of text was from a submissive, so it's not something that only effects one side of the kneel.  I've sent out a number of emails today and it hasn't been an issue.  Then again, I don't think anything that I've sent could have been considered spam.




sirrandpolyfam -> RE: Spam Filter is activated on my mail box (9/1/2010 12:55:41 PM)

We shall see. I seem to remember in a Yahoo group that did the same thing that a group of regulars decided to exclude many of the ones who came to join because they didn't have blah blah so they said they were spamming them. Because this kept many from joining the group disbanded after a few months.

We shall see if this new protection is for the many or the few.
