Chatterbox Sorry -- I missed responding to your message. The answer to your question is NO. It would have to be part of a PATTERN to make it worthy of addition on the database. But MORE IMPORTANTLY, remember what I actually proposed. I repeat it here but I highlight one portion that addresses your concern: ------------------------------------------------- A genuine blacklist prevents people from engaging in whatever they want to do (historically, for example, it has been used to deny people membership or employment). I advocate no such thing. I just think the GENUINE people here would like to invest their time with other GENUINE people. So, how would my proposal work? Here is what would happen: 1. You are contacted by someone who seems interesting. 2. You exchange a few messages and you grow more interested. 3. However, you may have some suspicion about some comment made 4. You look at the database and you discover that more than one person has had a bad experience with the person you are chatting with. NOT "bad" because they rejected you. NOT "bad" because your "feelings" were hurt. But some DISHONESTY about themselves And why would that be important? Because you would not invest more time with that person UNLESS you simply enjoy chatting with fakes and liars -- which would be PERFECTLY OK and would continue! -------------------------------- So my "blacklist" is NOT a "blacklist" because ANYBODY could choose to chat with the listed people as often and as long as they wish. Furthermore, the fakes and liars would CONTINUE to operate exactly as they have ALWAYS done....There is NO penalty or adverse action taken against them. The purpose of the database is simply to give a cautionary warning to the GENUINE people here. Then THEY can determine, for themselves, how much time to invest in someone who might be a fake or liar. THEY would decide (based upon their own criteria!) whether it was worthwhile to continue with that person. quote:
ORIGINAL: chatterbox24 You seriously want to ban people for not getting back to you? Nor sending a pic? People do lie all the time and do jazz things up, but thats life. As far as sending pictures and not emailing back thats a personal choice and ridiculous to even suggest someone is banned for that. I think people should be banned for using ugly profile pics but do you think anyone gives a poop? LOL. quote:
